To all our wonderful customers,

No, we're not closing. Sorry — I saw the graphic and immediately realized what this looks like. No need to panic, everything is fine.

However, we know that many of you have heard the rumors swirling over the past month, and I am ready to confirm them: as of January 2027 and after almost six years, I, Skipper Michael, will no longer be manning the helm at Tiki Tiki Bang Bang, as I move out of the state.

There is no change in ownership. I will be moving to behind the scenes, and so long as the boat floats, I'll be making some special appearance over the upcoming years. However, I am honored to say that Tiki Tiki Bang Bang is going to be in the best hands possible as "Rev. Kev" Gallaugher formally assumes command at the wheel of the ship. Since beginning his tenure aboard, Kev has been a driving force in making Bang Bang the place it is today, and I know that he's going to continue to bring Cincinnati the tiki bar it deserves. (You'll probably start thinking, "What the hell did Skipper do here, anyway?")

These past six years have been the best years of my life, and since we went independent from Gorilla Cinema, it has been the staff and customers which have made this establishment what it is. And of course, I cannot extend a more heartfelt "Thank You" to anyone more than prior owner Jacob Trevino for giving me this opportunity and my partners Sarah and Jason for believing in our this little thing of ours.

To all Bang Bang staff, past and present: "Thank You."
To our regular collaborators, such as Kymm Bang!, Trader Nick Elam, KJ Alec, Chump Change Variety, and [Distant Explosion]: "Thank You.".
And to all Bang Bang customers: "This is my last [Ball of Cthulhu/Sippin Santa/Finding Emo/Etc.] so you better come see me >:(

That which is dead can eternal lie,
And with strange aeons even death may die...

Iä! Iä! The stars are right, and the dread city R'lyeh rises from the seas! This Halloween, we celebrate the return of the High Priest of the Great Ones with our 6th Annual Ball of Cthulhu!

Opening at 6 pm, we have prepared an evening of eldritch entertainment. Our fellow cultists DJ [Distant Explosion] and DJ AndruWu will be spinning all night, and we'll be hosting our yearly costume contest with some incredible prizes (stay tuned for more info on those). And, of course, we'll have plenty of libations from our October menu, sponsored by Bacardi.

Mark your calendar and rejoice, fellow holders of true knowledge and enlightenment! The day is upon us! Cthulhu fhtagn!
