Great ideas, fellers, for promoting the show. Ernie, if you get postcards made let me have a handful or two so I can distribute them around my neighborhood. We've got a number of vintage clothing stores & comic book shops around here that probably wouldn't mind a small stack on their countertops.

Love it! But too subtle. You gotta fit in a real ugly (or even better, phallic) Tiki in there somewhere. You know that Yin and Yang, Beauty and the Beast thing. And I do believe that, as stupid as it sounds to you and me, it's also gotta say "a Tiki Christmas" somewhere. The juxtaposition is ear-catching and will make the concept clear at first glance. If you don't get them at the first glance, they will pass it over.

Artists and vendors, contact GROG for a space. Making a list, and will check it twice (learned that one from Santa).

I'm not sure if this image is under copyright but it is iconic:
Maybe Bettie decorating a Christmas tree with Tiki ornaments and a larger Tiki in the background.
I wish I could draw.

Ho!
Ho!
Ho!
Is this Merry Tikimas enough for you?
Grog,
I have always loved your December Tonga Hut shows. I am sorry I wasn't able to attend your recent Halloween event, and I do believe the reason the turnout was smaller than usual was that there were so many Halloween parties going on that day. Plus many of our ohana have children, who needed to be squeezed into their costumes and marched around the neighborhood. I recall that your Winter Wonderland shows have always been packed, and not just because of the holiday cookie competition! Artists who bring a few "seasonal" type pieces often sell out of those. Tiki Christmas tree ornaments anyone? Santa-Tiki mug for your rummy 'nog? Will SOMEONE please whip up a bunch of Tikified Santa hats for sale? Eric October, I'm talking to YOU.

Only three weeks until the always marvelous TIKI WONDERLAND at the Tonga Hut. GROG and Kirby trying to get a limited edition run of 25 Tonga Hut mugs done in three weeks! It going to be close one. We may not get ALL 25 completed, but we're going to damn well try! This how far we've gotten so far.
