Just because it's exciting-- I'd like to point out that this year's Crawl sold out in 22 days!
Thank you all for buying tickets-- it will be another terrific event this year!
Tickets are still available for the main Saturday event at the Jupiter, which will feature our own beloved Selector Lopaka spinning exotica, along with two great Portland bands, Mars Needs Women and Lisa and Her Kin!
Mars Needs Women is an up-and-coming surf band that's widely rumored to be the next big thing.
Lisa and Her Kin is a rockabilly/hillbilly band that will be coming in some some new exotica tunes specifically for Tiki Kon! And, speaking from personal experience, Lisa and Her Kin rocks quite effectively! (featuring our own Maori Man on drums!)
The Jupiter event will also feature tiki vendors-- including TC's Seamus--hula girls bearing drinks, the ever-popular raffle, a full bar & food by Salvador Molly's, purveyors of some of Portland's best exotic food & drinks! (They're even coming up with some special items just for us! Rumor has it that Trader Vic's Mai Tais and Zombies will be featured!)
So if you didn't manage to get a full weekend ticket, you can still come to the party at the Jupiter, buy a limited-edition mug for $15 on-site, and have a grand time listening to good music, checking out cool stuff, and sopping up tropical cocktails until you have to be dragged to your Jupiter hotel room!

Let's be clear here - the full weekend packages are sold out, so there are no more seats on the home bar tour bus, but there's PLENTY of room for Saturday's Tiki-Rific (sorry) Extravaganza. Live Music! Vendors! Custom Carved Ice-Luge with Pyrat rum! Pyrat Rum Hula Girls handing out samples! Out world-famous Raffle! It's not all about the home bar tour, folks - there's much more fun to be had at the 2006 NW Tiki Kon. Buy your tickets today!
End hype

But oh so much easier to throw a leg out and touch the floor to stop the 'room zooms'.
We're on the bus too!! And for us very much older people...where does the quote 'either you're on the bus or you're off the bus' come from? Honestly. I can't remember!

I can say I have seen the final sculpt and it brought me to tears (no so much cause it rocked so hard but because Tikitronic punched me!). It is dead sexy and very reminiscent of Andres Bumatay's Islander Mug (Pg. 9 of Tiki Quest) but with a different mouth. Can't wait can't wait can't wait..... oh I think I wet myself.......

That's great news!
The Doug Fir had better brace itself for our fur-fondling presence!
