Didn't see this event listed here and I was wondering if anyone here from the Wisconsin-Illinois area was attending... I'm seriously considering coming down Friday night, especially to get the mug and the book. I was wondering who I might run into...

I guess I'll just post up the info from the email I got...

Quimby’s bookstore in Chicago's Wicker Park will host a "Tiki Quest" booksigning and Tiki party on Friday, October 24th at 7:30pm. Chicago author
and avid Tiki collector Duke Carter will be on hand to sign copies of his brand new book, "Tiki Quest: Collecting the Exotic Past." The evening will also feature a special performance from The Barefoot Hawaiians (www.barefoothawaiian.com), a hula troupe from Des Plaines, IL  that regularly performed Friday and Saturday night shows at the legendary O’Hare Marriott Kona Kai.

For additional information about the event, please contact Quimby’s at 773-342-0910. Quimby’s (www.quimbys.com) is Chicago's coolest independent bookstore, specializing in underground books, comics, small press titles,
graphic novels, 'zines, art and erotica. It is located at 1854 W. North Ave. in Chicago.

Hmmm... I may have to head out to Hala Kahiki later that night too...
