Your action reporter is on the scene! For those of you who cannot make it, here are some more "as if you were there" photos from Oasis 7. For those of you who did, I caught it all on film so you and look back and say...."oh yeah!" Yes, I'm in most of them, but it IS my camera. Please forgive me if I forget your name or mispell it. Alcohol was involved. You understand.

Friday night soiree pics follow:

The big SEVEN!

Otto presiding....rockin' out Chicago and Detroit? Giving his famous "I have a dream" speech?

The entertainment:
The Blue Hawaiians

Half-naked chicks in coconut bras undulating for everyone's pleasure. I think I need to invent a coconut push-up bra...whaddya think?

Jon Paul (photographer AND editor, no less) doin' his thang, catching all the action on film...check out the glowing red lady in the background..ooooooh!

The Devilettes!

People in the crowd:
TikiKate, Judd and Scott later had a wrestling match, fighting over who was supposed to wear the brightest orange shirt for Friday...but in a tiki pile-up, we all win....

No, someone didn't stick this umbrella in his goatee while he slept, this fashion statement was his own concoction:

A bright and smiley Fez salute from Troy

Seriously snooty Hoiti Toitis

Tikicutie Laura ordering sushi with Ran at the bar

Scott and Laura getting their funk on to the Blue Hawaiians...or is Scott so mesmerized by Hot Laura's swaying that he is paralyzed with desire?

One of the first people I ever met in the Tiki world, Mr. Polypop, ladies and gentlemen

"Why won't you dance with me, man?" Jeff turns down and invite to a spin on the dancefloor with Jon Paul

Marie and Tikicutie Laura will dance with you, Mr. Photographer Man

Laura, Laura, Marie, repersentin' on da dancefloor of grass

Not and unusual sight on the dancefloor, Crazy Al showing us all how to party just a little harder...

Myself between Purple Orchid's Dave and Rebecca

The room crawl...Holden herds a group of willing drunks into the elevator and takes us to the 13th floor of Mai Tai Heaven after the dancing and music end

Holden and Squid in the room that time forgot. Squid's glass says it all.

Who was there?

Bed duty changes hands: Tigerlily (thanks for pulling registration duty) Holden (Holden Back the Ears), Derek Yaniger (Oasis illustrator) and TikiTrav (What was that gravy thing you were going on about?)

My buddies Robin and Dave

Rebecca and Eric with a drink in his pocket. So THIS is how he lures little girls...

Things always start off semi-normal when Johnnie V, Tikibird Dave and The Fury get in front of the camera...but something strange lurks in the ONE RED EYE of Johnnie Velour....

Tikipug and The Stace on the porch in a candid moment. Thank you Dr. Stacy for curing Dr. Laura of the hiccups in the bathroom!

Mai, Mai, Mai what a beautiful dress, and the famous opera singer to be, Suzanne, in the background (good luck starting your masters degree in opera next week in Texas!)

Um, where is my hand? Fury and Tikicutie having a meeting at the watercooler. If only Mai Tai's filled these things at work...it would ALWAYS be Millertime...

SoccerTiki encouraged this disgusting display. That's okay, half the party had already been flashed my underwear several times at this point

Your caption here:

Johnnie Velour and his STERNographer

Suzy was just arriving at the hotel at midnight as Holden's crawl party spilled into the hallway to greet her

How can you just be getting here, Grog? It's past midnight! Another late arrival I ran across in the parking lot as I left for the evening. Man that drive from Alaska is a real "witch" (rhymes with)!

The last faces I saw for the evening: Dr. Laura Whalerider (who put the "X" in X-ray) and Spermy (who put the drinks in Laura) ....staggering through the parking lot after midnight...lost?...I offered them a ride but they said they were just staying next door at the Motel 6. Hope you made it there ok!

Ok...gotta go to the Saturday events now, more pics posted Sunday.

I put the "fun" in confusion!
