GROG got a PM from Bamboo Ben, and it sounds like he isn't coming, so anybody who changed their mind about showing up can now come without having to worry about keeping their paper wallets safe from Ben. Kirby will still be there though. GROG not so sure about using the club Kirby carved instead of the stick. We just want to annoy him, not kill him. (At least not at this time) |

Well I got home about 1:45 and I had such a great time. What an amazing turnout .There were so many artists and fans there , it was overwhelming. I think if they dropped a bomb on the Tonga Hut last night that all of California Tiki would be lost .Thanks to all for the compliments on my Amity Thrillkitten tiki photos ,sorry that I only brought 10 to hand out . Anyway ...get out of bed and post those pics . I think I was in 50 photos,most of them by Johnny Pinstriper . |

Thank you to all the artists who participated in the show (plus Kirby), Suzy for helping put this thing together, Nick Camara of Tiki Magazine, and Ana and Jeremy of the Tonga Hut. And special thanks to all the people who came to the show. I hope everybody enjoyed it as much as GROG did. (Maybe a little TOO much, damned VooDoo Juice just tastes too good!) Squid------Oh, you're hilarious, you bastard! He had his daughter draw a sign that said "GROG" and then brought some rocks and set them out on display like GROG was selling GROG's art. The things GROG has to put up with!! Sheesh. Plus, Congratulations to Tiki Tony for being the featured artist in Tiki Magazine, and for doing such a great cover piece for the magazine. Turned out to be really great event, we'll definitely have to do it again. Mahalos-------GROG |

I just wanted to give a shout of thanks to all the artists,Tiki magazine(i'm a loyal subscriber). the bartenders and the Tonga Hut. Great event! It was my first time at the Tonga Hut and i had a blast! I will certainly be back. Squid your stuff rocks and i will be in line for the first of the new skull mugs, or your next musical gig whichever comes first.. Kirby and little lost tiki thanks for the warm welcome over smokes. i had dragged my partner(patient and supportive but not a fanatic yet) and a couple of non tikified friends and managed to make a new tiki convert out of one of them. the evening made complete with their first tiki mug purchase(not mine heaven knows) to commemorate the event. As the new kid on the "tiki island" its a pleasure to start putting faces with names. thanks again for a great night. |

Cool meeting tiki t0ny & picking up a Lekookoo & a few extra choice mugs, seeing Squids new wax sculpture for his 3 skulls mug, & seeing Ken Ruzics art! Lets all party again soon!! but not before I save up all my extra pennies for some fine Kinny art!! |
