Wow- I bet Tracy is happy my memory is NOT serving me correctly. Congrats again! I imagine Baby Bullhiki will be itching for a road trip by July.

Anyone who is interested in vending their wares at Exotica should get on board while there is still space. Vintage and/or original Tiki, Hawaiiana, aloha attire, etc. is ideal. There is a limited number of spaces available and booths are very reasonable.
For more info email: bamboolodge@comcast.net

Son of a B%tch. I'll be in Chicago (for the 1st time) the following week for a seminar. Are there any cool tikified products (mugs) from said event that I could preorder and maybe pick up when I'm there? Being as I live in a tiki-free city this could be my first chance to score on a work trip; I usually waste my time surfing and drinking on them.
Also for your Chicagoland tikiphiles. Since I will probaby have one (maybe 2) nights free where should I go that I can score a good meal, a good drink and a good mug?

Tipsy,
if you don't like the bands than start your own event. You asked for it.

....Ha!! actually, i did.....exotica was the name i used for the first exotica which a friend and i started back in 2000 called "exotica 2000" which was an art show hosted by myself and other tiki artists as a way for us locals to show/sell our work. It was a one day show held at my friends loft downtown. From there it went to a place called "right on futon". Duke carter showed work at both places. It was from this first show that all following exotica events were spawned.....I still have the old postcard advertisements from the event and a newspaper article about the show....and the rest is history.

..on another note....since the chicago "big C jamboree" is the first thursday in july, was wondering if you organizers had plans for a meet and greet and if not, how about gettin something going at Martyr's where the "big C" event is held anyway??. you should talk to ken mottet and see if you can work in a show that night to kick off the exotica weekend, since there will be bands there anyway, why not get some of your surf acts into it....anyway, something to think about if you haven't already considered it...the timing seems good.

Surf, as always, give me a PM about a week before you get here, and if I am available, I will drive you out to the amazing Hala Kahiki, and also to Chef Shangri-La. All other TCers are welcome too, natch.
