Today's lack of sun made for this sunset:

Drums update:

Yesterday I got the goat head and put it on the dark drum.

It finally dried at about noon today, and I have to say, it sounds pretty darn good. :)

I also sanded the little pahu and got it stained:

The Martini Kings drum got some fine coats of oil all over it:

While the oil was setting, I put the hide in the tub...

and after several hours of soaking, I was able to put it on:

You need to use that lawnmower more often and really get in shape!

If I get any better looking, they'll have to make me illegal, just for equality's sake.

hey buzzy...do we get a preview of what you will have
at oasis....any drums......tikis?......

I loaned all my tikis out to a party over the weekend and just got them back today. They're still in my truck. I'll try to get a picture tomorrow, but you'll probably already be on the way by then. I only have 5 tikis and 5 drums to sell at Oasis this year. Not much stuff, but it's all quality!

I have a bunch of promo tshirts from some movie called rocker that say "I only drum naked!" on the front of them. I should include one with each drum purchase this weekend.

I'll be needing a pin up pic again this year. You've started something weird collection-wise.

I'll definitely be bringing pictures this year...
And it's not weird, it's Kool! All the Koolkids have one!

you're waaay too hairy...

You just have a distorted view of what a real man is. I'm sure you have the makings of one somewhere underneath all that pasty flab. You should talk to your doctor. He can probably give you some hormones to take care of that lack of masculinity problem. I'm surprised the Marines couldn't make a man out of you. But in their defense, they only had a couple years to undo all the damage you did to yourself over your whole life up to that point.

Yo AA! I hope I made something they will cherish. It turned out well so far, in my opinion.

I just stopped by to say it was nice bumping into you today, I should add I was fortunate you were fully clothed at the time.

I'm glad you didn't notice I wasn't wearing any underwear that day.

Locals: Tune into San Diego Living tomorrow morning for a live feature on Tiki Oasis.
Buzzy Out!
