Yep, that's how much I'm jonesing for APE. I get into the Oakland airport about 1ish, and the show starts at 5... any locals up for a late lunch/early dinner or other pre-show adventure? I have one extra ticket that I bought for a friend who can't make it, PM/email me if you still need a ticket.

Although the show's at 5pm, we'll be opening the doors and serving food (Including Cafe Rustica's delicious menu) at 4pm. Rustica-located downstairs-is open all day.

Humuhumu: Do you still have the extra ticket? Looks like it will just be me as Mrs. Pineapple will be repeatedly watching the end of the Tour de France and going through withdrawls. Tiki Vixen: Mrs P is dying to get her jacket back. Will you bring it if you come? Thanks!

T Tiki-bot Member Joined: Jun 24, 2002 Posts: 1345	T Tiki-bot Posted posted on Fri, Jul 30, 2004 11:28 PM My pics from the show... Mig & Humuhumu eagerly await the start of the show... Martiki & Rebecca pose for a nice photo by someone else... Al getting his gig on... Humuhumu enjoys Frank and Eric's stylings.... Al attempts to carve the hardest wood known to man, from the "eucantcarvus" tree.... Al works his voodoo on the crowd... I can't wait to take one of these home....C'Al's mug, that is! Otto is sooooo mysterious.... Ahhh, that's better. Ring girl Humuhumu sports visual aids during Otto's "lecture". The only question remaining is..."Should I have another mai tai?"

How do they train the people who paint these???: At the show: Mig's drink was unusually tasty, and it had peanuts floating in it: Tiki-bot offers me one of his really delicious cheesy poufs (what are they really called, Conga Mike?): Lane & Frank: Eucalyptus? Is hard.: The boys, doin' their thing: Al does his thing: The tiki at intermission--it was really incredibly hard, like carving concrete, apparently: Frank relaxes with a little Okolehao: Martiki & Rebecca: Conga Mike: APE starts up again: Otto: Tiki-bot: Otto looking like his mother posed him: The lovely Mrs. Conga Mike: Lane: Rebecca & me: Lane redux: Tiki-bot & Scrimshaw: Buncha people: 'Nother buncha people: Crazy Al putting finishing touches on the tiki: Relaxing on the Conga Lounge patio: Me & Lane: A buncha APEs: I'm not quite sure what this is all about: Raffling off the tiki: Me & Frank: Technicolor Frank: A late-arriving Mr. Sleepy: Afterparty at the Mallard: Thanks again for such a wonderful get-together! I had such a fabulous time, it was well worth the crazy jaunt. MORE APE!!
