I'm done trying the art fairs here in Cheeseland... I blew another 7 hours sitting around people watching. As soon as I get the details worked out I'm trucking a vanload down Florida way, where TIKI is known far and wide. [ Edited by: Lake Surfer 2010-04-04 23:51 ]

Later.

Don't let it get you down if you don't sell again. Just remember it's Wisconsin. You need to find your market. Hukilau for instance. Maybe you could put cheese head hats on all of them. Good Luck

T Tiki-Toa Member Somewhere on Planet Tiki Joined: May 30, 2004 Posts: 1012	T Tiki-Toa Posted posted on Sun, Jul 11, 2004 4:37 PM The suggestion of cheese hats on tikis, but the sad part that there is some that would buy a tiki if you put a cheeshead on a tiki, Lake should carve up a Moai wearing a cheesehead to just see how bad the people of Wisconsin are.

I know what this is about. also i heard theres a rockabilly crowd in wissconsin. if theres any way to connect with these type people or any of the tatoo, surf swing people, this could be key. maybe put up fliers, etc.. where the hip crowd might hang out.can you play music there? make your presense known. best of luck jimmy.

Has that revolving door stopped spinning yet? This is a little bit of revenge directed in a very light hearted manner at doc for the fact that I had to grow up watching the greatest BEAR of all time tear the Packers up for years, WALTER "SWEETNESS" PAYTON!

Play some Tropical music put on a Hawaiian shirt and get the wahine out there in a flowery dress and pretend your at an Island Bazaar. The book of tiki and other props will help get there attention. Blow a conch every 15 minutes or practice your bird calls. Give out shots of hawaiian punch! Spread the aloha and have a good time.

T Tiki-Toa Member Somewhere on Planet Tiki Joined: May 30, 2004 Posts: 1012	T Tiki-Toa Posted posted on Tue, Jul 13, 2004 7:17 AM I agree with you Doc and Flouder, if you carved a Moai with a Cheesehead and a 4 on the front and back, some Wisconsinite would probably buy it regardless of what you charged, and that is just the sad state of people's awareness of Tiki in the midwest. But hey that is why I am doing the tiki event RAISE AWARNESS of the TIKI CAUSE! :)

Chongolio... that all sounds great. I actually had exotica, Brudda Iz, and Hapa going all day at the last art fest but a street band down the ways kept drowning me out. I'm coming out in force again with the tunes, grass skirting, palm leaves and my best Aloha Shirt. Looks like the weather is gonna be great too. Mahalo for the good vibes Ohana!

It was probably ment to be. Trust me once you are at Hukilau you'll be glad the cheeseheads didn't buy your cool tiki's. See you in Sept.
