The tiki bash is less than a week away and we have gotten tremendous response. Even beyond what we expected. I thought I should give some actual details as to what is going on that night in case anyone can make it. First here's a peek at just some of the swank swag: Fender Tiki-Coustic guitar and deluxe case The original art used for Tiki-Coustic by Doug Horne (!) Art print by Douge Horne Original art by Jimmy Smith Hot Rod Designs Gift certificate from Go-Kat-Go Bunch o' VooDoo Rum brand gear Glass tiki art by Velvet Glass A kustom hot rod bike (and fez-wearing coconut monkey!) by Kat Sass Kustoms An island tiki mask from ASL Embroidered Ltd. Ed. Nat Nast Palos Verdes 1940 surf shirt Free CDs, T-shirts, (vinyl!) LPs, stickers from the bands We'll of course be having the finest surf music anywhere (if I do say so myself) and some cool DJs spinning exotica all night. Top that off with a wicked RedRum drink concoction of their own design and a live tiki carving (not necessarily in that order!) and I think you might have a concentrated tiki experience. Oh, yeah, there will also be tiki art, mugs, and jewelry, preferred hot rod parking and island BBQ specials... Also check out the event website: HERE. It would be great to meet some like-minded AZ folks! So come on out July 25th to the Rhythm Room. [ Edited by: LHR 2007-07-19 17:34 ] [ Edited by: LHR 2007-07-19 18:02 ]

(Of course, you already knew that!) Interesting to see the little differences between the drawing and the final product. The original colored pencil art is going to wind up in the someone's lucky hands that night. I wish I could get tickets! LHR

We attended the Rhythm Room bash and had a great time! It was swell to meet some of you and we look forward to meeting more the next time the ohana gets together around Phoenix. We found more goodies for our tiki collection and got good ideas for the next stuff that we suddenly need. Anyway, just wanted to say hi finally and thank everyone for their warm welcome and hospitality. Brice & Lisa in TikiTempe
