J jpmartdog Tiki Socialite Amesbury, Mass Joined: Mar 27, 2005 Posts: 650	J jpmartdog Posted posted on Fri, May 7, 2010 5:09 PM Just thought Id mention my friends collectible store - right around the corner from 'EXOTIC ISLAND'- Some of you may enjoy popping in to their shop, they have a great mix of mid century stuff and it is all wicked cheap! They have a store, and never any customers - here are some pics A lot more in there - than I took pictures of. The store is literally 1 minute away - so come a few minutes early and I'll bring you over - or we can all go over at a particular time Just an idea! -

J jpmartdog Tiki Socialite Amesbury, Mass Joined: Mar 27, 2005 Posts: 650	J jpmartdog Posted posted on Sat, May 8, 2010 8:23 AM Yes, Thats right Kelly - The Art Studio is in a large gray warehouse - I share the building with German Autsport - I am on the right side. If you arrive by GPS - it will put you about 300 yards away. Simply continue down the hill along the brick mill building and I am on your right - a steep driveway - to a large parking lot in front of the gray warehouse. My phone is 978-792-6029, if you get lost! See you all in a few hours!

I'm a bit worried about the curse of Kona but I should be okay. Thanks Jon for a wonderful evening! Beth
H Hibiscus Member Boston-ish Joined: Sep 22, 2008 Posts: 211	H Hibiscus Posted posted on Sun, May 9, 2010 3:13 PM Wow, thanks to Jon and all the Queequegs for putting on this terrific evening! What an amazing space - as well as great food, awesome drinks, and wonderful music and company! Thanks for opening the Exotic Island to us - you did an amazing job! Some pics... An overview of the space... Captain Quad at the amazing bar... Kristiki and Rev_Thumper about to unveil the cake... And what a cake it was! One of the many classic reels we were lucky enough to view... Another shot of the place... The Granite Tiki plays for us among the naked ladies and rescued tiki items! We had some amazing food... A good time was had by all! So great to see everyone again. Thanks again, Jon!
BK Big Kahuna Member SoMass Joined: Apr 11, 2007 Posts: 2486	BK Big Kahuna Posted posted on Fri, May 14, 2010 8:20 PM Wow! What a great time. It was nice meeting everyone in person & Jon, thank you so much for your hospitality. Karan & I really enjoyed ourselves. The Gilligan's Island episode & the vocal stylings of The Granite Tiki were pure entertainment gold & Exotic Island's ambience is something special. I've got to learn how to play craps one of these days. I'm definitely gonna try to make it to more New England Tikiphile events. Mahalo, Rick PS: Give Kona a little scritch on the head for me!
