Knocking off an artist's work is highly discouraged....
Clysdalle will not appreciate you claiming his picture for your own!

"Night at the Opera" contains "Bohemian Rhapsody"
"We will Rock you" is on "News of the World"!
I think I'm tapped out til the Closing Reception!

Big Tiki Dude..
If you havent finished pulling out records for your DJ set on Satuday?

We've been receiving some special music requests for the FREAKoout!!

We started hanging some art last night. Maybe 30% of the show is now hung!!!! Great Art!!! Great Ideas!!
Thanks to Babalo and Tobanga and Little Lost Tiki for there help....It is fun watching Artist try to use a hammer....


We will be playing this new album from Dewy at the show also!!!!!

RORY!
Why you so into Dewey?

Hanging WAS a blast
except for lazy Steve...
Babalu
Tobunga
Manuel
Rory
you guys kicked butt and hung like CHAMPIONS
and the show looks AWESOME beyond words already!
Just hope BigToe doesn't screw up the flow on his shift tonight!
Bamboo Ben made 2 BRAND NEW pieces for the gig and they're WAAAAAAAY cool!
Robb Hamel's velvets-what can i say that hasn't already been said.... wowza
Babalu's Lapatiki and Super-detailed Babaloon mug are perfect for the theme
and add a nice lustre to the lineup..
Tobunga"s paintings are so much more impactful in person!
his "March of the Tiki Gods" is something special!
David Calver's trippy colored pencil drawings are
funny,enigmatic,and powerful,despite their size...
Hodadhank's ULTRATANG is too cool for this world!
people will be talking about it for a long time...
I'm imagining lots of photo-ops next to that little big guy!
We put TANG right near Tobunga's Godzilla and Rodan Tiki pieces..
Perfect fit!
I got's 3 BIG EPIC showcase pieces
and 2 lil ones and they fit perfectly between BooBen and BUNGA!
Guess who made a last minute appearance at the FREAKOUT?

THE CRAMPS OW YEA !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

So I've been receiving reports of Bamboo Ben's plans to streak nekkid through the
gallery to our patio bar again?? As last seen here with Bigtoe at the Surfbeat artshow..

I would like to discourage any of this FREAKY behavior, but any females who should find themselves in danger of dehydration from streaking will promptly be handed free Mai Tais!

Blue Hawaiian anyone?
