Alooooooha! friends and collectors,

OPEN FOR BUISNESS for the new MARTIN DENNY TRIBUTE MUG!! An exact replica of the tiki I carved for Mr.Denny.

email me @ [email protected]

These mugs will come signed and numbered to 300. They are $35ea plus shipping. Produced by Tiki Farm and will be avail in 45 to 60 days. ONLY 1 MUG PER ADDRESS.

This is the info I will need from everyone.
shippin' address (no po boxes), tel nr (daytime) & email address. Send a email to [email protected] type "buy gecko mug" or something to that effect as the email subject.

First come first serve for my first mug design ever on the market. Available now for TC. These will be avail to the public later.

MAHALOZ PLENNY TO YOU ALL!!!

Heres some update info on the mug. Yesterday I got a call from Christina Denny (Martins daughter) and talk to them both on the mug. Befor I ever gave this idea to Holden me and the Dennys talked first. I told them I wanted to tribute a mug to Martin for all the great stuff he has done for so many people threw his music.
Thats what the call was about yesterday. The lawyer finally drew up the contract and we both signed it yesterday. So, now the mug lables that are going to be signed by me can bare "A tribute to the high priest of exotica Mr. Martin Denny" !!

My Artisit Proofs which I'll call "EXOTICA PROOFS" will be signed by both me and Martin Denny and will be at a VERY scarce edition of only 25 mugs. Sold only threw me. I haven't figured out a $number$ for such a rare run yet? "EXOTICA PROOFS" are not yet for sale! SORRY!

Well thats the new update on the now "Martin Denny Tribute mug." I'm very happy to be able to bring a collectors item like this to you guys! it's been months of waiting but has now paid off.

TO: TC members, Mahaloz for all your support and I will strive to bring you great collectibles in the years to come! LIVE ALOHA!

TO: Mr. Denny and Christina Denny,
If you ever read this post, I cannot even think of a word to explain how great you guys have been to me! Thank you is a understatement!! Mahalo for all the ALOHA you have sent my way!!! Aloha to you both!

I was just thinking Gecko...

It says that the mugs are signed and numbered. Does that mean you will be here in SoCal in the next 45 to 60 days or is Holden just sending you the little limited edition cards to sign and send back to him to include with the mug?

There are still lots of mugs avail! I dont think I've hit 75 yet. It's 9:29 AM Honolulu time. Calli I think is 2 or 3 hours ahead. I think they will still be available for a few more weeks.

Mahaloz to all that has pre-ordered already. I cannot wait to come visit you at your homes and drink a maitai with you and see da mug on your shelf!

Placed our order earlier. Glad to know we made the cut!!

I knew there was some reason I was supposed to check TC this morning. Damn work! Looking forward to getting it.

Hey Gecko, could you punch "reply" when mine comes thru? I've been having troubles with my email outbox. I put Kono in the message. That way I know it got through. Thanks. The geckos that get in my apartment are gonna love it.

Hey Gecko, I keep tryin' to send you a confirm on the address in your post but I keep getting an Error code and it won't let me send. I'll PM you instead...damn computers!

Just put my order in for one Gecko mug! I have to second the idea of posting a list just for us to double check our order and make sure all is well. Great mug Gecko!

tiki junkman

yes gecko, please put up a confirmation list on this post when you get a chance

We just sent our e-mail. Hope we are not too late!!

HOWZIIIIT PEOPO!

I had a few peeps ask the question "when do we pay?"

I'm giving Holden the list on the 1st of March and he will be getting in contact with all of you for payment ya.

If you hane any ?'s feel free to ask.

Tanks to everyone who has ordered! I hope you will be happy with your new mug! I something special to tell you because I got A call from Christina Denny(Martins daughter) about some good news that I will tell you about later. It has to do with the mugs.

Kono, I didn't receive a email with kono typed in the subject box. PM me brah!

I can email everyone that has a pre-order in so you know I got you email if you want. I'll just type "got it". I don't have the time write now to tell you all the #'s of wot mug you get, sorry. Maybe later.

Their still is plenty mugs avail.

You are sooo full of Aloha Spirit that when I look it up in the dictionary I see a picture of your face! HA! ;D
