It's that time of year again, time to get all your tiki Christmas shopping done. Which means it's time for the annual
Tiki Wonderland art show at the Tonga Hut. This is number 5!! We will also be celebrating the GRAND RE-OPENING of the Tonga Hut.

We're going to do it vendor-style starting early afternoon with artists/vendors in the parking lot from noon to 4:30 and then some awesome live music from the Glasgow Tiki Shakers inside from 5pm to 8pm.

Maybe you can vend at Frankie's and pay for your trip to Vegas. :) Or, put a quarter in a slot machine and get lucky.

Grog,

I have it.

thanks for posting this, I had been meaning to ask you when you were going to do it.

Speaking of live band, artists we may have to charge a little vending fee to pay for the band. And yes, that includes GROG. Kinny has to pay double, though.

Saturday December 3rd. Mark it on your calendar now, save the date. Tonga Hut's Biggest and Best Tiki Wonderland! The Tonga Hut is still lining up vendors and Artists in finalizing all plans. I have wanted the Glasgow Tiki Shakers to play at the Hut for a year now I think they are a GREAT band that fits well into our venue and the last time we tried to book them they were not available but hopefully this time. Kelly say to Grog, "Grog call Jeff get a phone number it will be faster" Grog not listen again to HipHip Sigh~~~ :wink:

We will keep you up dated and I'm very excited to see some amazing artists that we haven't visited with at the Hut in a while it will be great to have you on board once again.

Get ready to do some Holiday shopping and don't forget the show is not limited to holiday items, you need pure Tiki!?? We will have it!

Grog? why isn't your poster Santa holding a Tonga Hut mug??

GROG posted on Mon, Oct 24, 2011 7:44 PM

GROG got phone number from Bongofury earlier. GROG just want to give the band a chance to respond to email before GROG call them.

There only a limited edition of Tonga Hut mugs made and Santa not make it to Tonga Hut when they went on sale, so him miss out.

Maybe your goin'primitive mug in christmas colors then

Grog you lazy man, get back to work and work 10 times harder for us please :roll: just photo shop in the Tonga Hut Mug that you made already and make a girl happy gessshhhh.........

YAY Glasgow Tiki Shakers are in!!

Hey, you're being a bit premature about the band. Gotta talk to Jeremy today about price, but GROG pretty sure he'll be okay with it.

I am so happy to see that Grog is putting this on again! It's one of my favorite get-togethers! And now, in "Grog-Speak": Tangaroa-ru looking forward to hugging Grog at this shindig.

It'll make a good companion for the Kinny statuette we tried to sell last year. Nobody bought any so we ended up having to give them all away.

Granny is Back!!

Photoshop I need photos! I have some dandy's to post, Old School!

Bleh, this is conflicting with an engagement I committed to 3 months ago.
Why must my friends be getting married!!!!!

Any need to RSVP for the party? Thanks Jeremy for the heads up on the Sportsmen Lodge. It'll be the perfect spot to stay.

G
GROG posted on Wed, Nov 9, 2011 9:38 AM

No RSVP needed.

We were a bit heavy on testosterone, so we've got Stacey Morris of HAPPY CHI JEWELRY and Suzy ATOMIKITTY vending as well. There's a possibilty that Nick from Tiki Magazine will be vending, but he's trying to rearrange his schedule now, so he can come.

Jeremy's going to have some burgers and hotdogs on the grill if you're hungry. If you want to bring potluck, GROG not complain.


Should we do the cookie competition again, what do ya'll think?

Kinny is bringing animals for the petting zoo.

I thought we weren't supposed to bring animals to tiki events anymore?
didn't anyone learn the lesson from this past tiki oasis?

Boris McScroogepants doesn't like Christmas cookies! Christmas cookies Suck! They're weird and doughy (A little like GROG) with weird tasting weird textured sprinkles and they are annoying to eat. I'd say the majority of Xmas cookies get eaten so someone doesn't get their feelings hurt.

But Hey, don't let me stop you from cramming every possible thing into this event. :lol:

COOKIEEEEEEEEEES!

Too late, Boris McScroogepants has already canceled it. He's also nixed the pie eating contest, the wet t-shirt contest, the body shots off of the Playboy playmate of the month, the conga line, beer pong, caricature artist, balloon clown, bounce house, fireworks, Penn and Teller, poker tournament, scavenger hunt, donkey show, Russian roullette, special appearance by Jessica Alba, ice cream truck, screening of How the Grinch Stole Christmas, and an appearance by Santa Claus.
