Wow! What a night!
It may have been cold and rainy outside, but inside the Tonga Hut we were really feeling the LOVE from the TC OHANA! (Now, before you dirty birds get started again, I, at least, mean that in a strictly platonic sense! GROG-you'll have to tell me the story of the pic with you in the back of a van with Bamboo Ben apparently 'sans pantalones'. Then again. . .Ignorance is bliss. . . : )

THANK YOU to all the AMAZING artists, DJ Lee, Ana and Jeremy, and the bartenders of the Tonga Hut, for bringing Tiki Wonderland to life!

Many thanks to GROG, SQUID, and yes, EVEN Little Lost Tiki and Kirby for creating the TC 'Franken-thread' that we all enjoyed reading so much!

On that note-an extra special thanks to HumuHumu and Hanford for putting up with the madness, and for giving us all an outlet for our tiki obsessions!

Thank you to everyone who made it out to the show, and to all of you who wished us well and were there in spirit! Here are some pics from the show. . .I never take as many as I mean to, so I hope others will post theirs as well.

Yes, the Atomikitty seems to have been very elusive that night-no pics here either! I'm pretty sure I was there. . .unless it was all a strange dream. . .

First-the ART! The Coconut Monkey Project, with Hairflowers by Squirrelly and Brady tiki casts by Brian Byrne.

Tiki Ice's amazing 'Tower o' tikis!' Good stuff!

The Bosko corner. . .ooohhhh. . .I covet!!!

Squirrelly warms up to her new tiki. : )

See how happy COCONUT MONKEYS made these fine people?! YOU can be that happy too!

Johnny the Pinstriper and the lovely Miss Courtney.

Steph and Jack prove you can have a pretty blue drink with an umbrella in it and STILL look tough! (or crazy.)

The mysterious polka dot girl and her man. Sorry GROG.

And finally. . .The downfall of Jeremy. . .

Awww. . .don't wake him. . .he looks like an angel with his new SQUID mug. .

GROG and Polly take advantage of the situation. . .FOR SHAME!!!!
