Im very excited about this show as I was last year . Once again this is going to be a mindblowing event . Last year was great on opening night and it set the bar for all to outdo themselves on this years show because of all the tiki talent in one spot at one time . Someone I care for a lot could not make it last year and it still haunts me that they werent there but is going to be there on on my arm this year . I have been sober for almost 7 years and that last show was blazing through me like I was drunk on art . Every artist there did their best to just show what they do best and enjoy so much but then we all had to pack up at the end of the night. By dawn , no one could tell how great the times were for all just hours before .
Nick really set the tone last year by having Hassan do the poster and I was honored to recreate the poster tiki which was not easy . Well , Hassan outdid himself again .I looked at that poster tiki for this show and it intimidated me ....hahaha .Im bringing 2 pieces . I was carving the 2nd one at Tiki Oasis and its almost done now .
If you missed some shows this year and regret it, make sure this is the one you hit .Even if the art wasnt there ,the quality of tikiphiles from all over is enough to get you to Planet Rooth . If they dropped a bomb on the gallery that night, Tiki Central would have nothing to talk about . I hope to see you ALL at the show and please remember to bring a camera . There is never enough pics for an event like this . The show runs for a month this time so we can all revisit it . So get your asses there wiki wiki and enjoy , Ray
