Poor Dear Squid, I think he's way too sweet to pick on. I like him just the way he is.
Does anyone know if the event is full already? Someone I know wants to go. I made my reservations weeks ago, so luck for me I am set. Appreciate the help.

OK Folks....
If you haven't made reservations yet and are planning on going, best to get on the stick. The people at Kona are telling me that we are pretty darn near full, so don't delay. Over 250 pieces of Squidom will be on display in that little island paradise you all know and love, : The Hidden Village.
Now that it's been blessed, the mana is all good and as it should be - TIKI FILLED.
Between the Mugs, Models, 2-D art, TIKIYAKI Music, an awesome spread of Grub and Grog, this show will be one to remember.
Looking forward to seeing everyone and rockin' the house.

Looks like this is really taking shape! A lot of folks are pitching in to make this a fun-filled evening. Every time we think the list of squid stuff is complete.....another item pops up and gets covered by someone. Mahalos in advance for all the hard work these folks are doing!!!
Thanks to Marty Lush, everyone who attends will get a souvenir program with a squidstuff spotting guide and other completely useless information.
I will also have some stuff for sale at the event:
2 new pendants that debuted at Tiki Oasis 8.
Marcel Moai $20
Kona Kahuna $25
3 new prints done in conjunction with Bai!
"Psychotica" Limited edition of 20. 12 x 16 image Giclee on watercolor paper $70. 8 x 10 matted mini print $20.
"Last Call at Voodoo Village" Limited edition of 20. 15 x 15 image Giclee on watercolor paper $70. 12 x 12 matted mini print $20.
And just released at Tiki Magazine's Planet Rooth show...
"The Spirit Keepers" Limited edition of 20. 12 x 16 image Giclee on watercolor paper $70. 8 x 10 matted mini print $20.
PLUS a new original with Bai! (Photos to come...)
And a surprise from Skinny Dog Designs!
And maybe some more stuff that you'll like. So be sure to visit Hiphipahula and see what she's got stashed at the vending table.
See ya there!

I think I'm gonna be sick; my brain can't handle all these Squidlicious works (new and old) in one place.

I am finally breathing a massive sigh of relief. The mug wrangling is complete.
I'd like to give a huge thank you to all of the kind folks who are so generously loaning pieces of their collections in support of Squid's show.

Between all of us, we have been able to come up with every single mug that Squid designed, co-designed or sculpted over the past eight years that has gone into production.
In addition to all the mugs, there will be all sorts of other wacky things that Squid has designed: magnets, coasters, bathroom accessories, candle holders, lamps, ashtrays... I could go on and on, but I won't. You'll just have to come out to Kona to see it all for yourselves which is most certainly preferable to listening to me ramble about my love of ceramics. Better start cleaning out my soap dispenser now.

It's really coming together now. The mugs are gathered, the Field Guides are being printed, and today Ron and dibroc did a great job assembling the display shelves that Ron designed.
Here's how we found the Hidden Village.
The assembly process.
I got to use the pneumatic stapler.
Nearly finished...
Can't wait to see them covered with mugs.
