I’m really glad I made the trek out for this event and have to say I had a blast. Free booze always sweetens the deal. It was cool seeing all the Tiki Farm mugs in one place along with all the people who enjoy them. Also, great meeting MauiRose at the show along with Coco Joe and other Tiki Central folk such as BigTikiDude, Bora Boris, Squid and TikiG earlier at Tiki Ti for the unofficial pre-party.

Here are some close-up photos of Tiki Farm animals in there cages. All taken by my drunken girlfriend Mellissa. She later stumbled around asking the question to anyone who would listen, “Aren't these mugs supposed to be drank from instead of collected”?

Okole Maluna,
Darrin

Hey Darrin,

Just wanted to say it was great meeting you Darrin (and Mellissa) at TikiTi - from my perspective too.

I'm sure hanging-out with everybody else was a treat for you two as well.

Its always great when a group of LA poly-pop artists get together, as that doesn't happen all that often there's a positive tangible vibe shared that I find intoxicating. I hope you two found it intoxicating as well.

'Til next time around - Cheers!

CJ

Darrin and Melissa are good people!

e-mail from Tiki Farm,

We’ve got some groovy offerings for you, our faithful friends and Tiki Farm collectors! First up, you’ve seen us promoting it in the past and now here it is! From the twisted & talented mind of our pal & Tiki Farm collaborator, the quasi-talented Dirty Donny…

We wanted a real old-school design along the lines of Rick Griffin, the Family Dog, Robert Williams… cool old-school vibey! We’re happy with how it came out and we hope you dig it, too! As we mention, this sucker glows in the dark and the black is flocked velvet (and heavily flocked it is – no skimpin’)!! We’ve got 50 of the total run so you’d better snatch yours up quick!

Nothing special, but here are my photos. From October 17th I believe.

Entry to the display

Random shots (pretend you're in a Batman episode)


Some beautiful glasses (that according to Holden are heavy so they tip over and break)
