I am reasonably sure Bill Sapp, the creator and original owner of Kahiki will be in town for the event.

And I'm in the process of getting Andy Chan the chef at the Kahiki prior to the closing to join us as well.
Oh, and Skip is very excited to be there.
So bring those menus to get them signed folks.

I chatted with Skip today again, and he will only be available (due to his current job) for a brief window on Saturday starting around noon when we open the show. So you will want to get there right on time if you want a drink from the man.
We went over ingredient lists and are all set. We may even have the Navy Grog (maybe) if Skip can dig up the bitters recipe for me so's I can mix a batch. If this happens, I'll likely make a lot and will have some available in bottles along with the recipe for the drink. That'd make a nice souvenir.
But we need to track down the recipe... so don't hold your breath.

Updates:
We don't know if Jim will be there or not. Skip is coming for sure, but he has his regular job to attend to that evening. So get there early to get a drink from the master.
Also, we finally got a confirmation from a terrific artist named Andrew Bawidamann (See his work here: http://www.bawidamann.com/ ) and he will be selling prints and such at the event.
And... it is looking like Hogscraper will be bringing along some burlesque gals as part of the show.
Hope to see you all Friday @ 7pm for a meet and greet at the Voodoo, and then on Saturday for the main event.
Oh, and one more thing... the Voodoo has booked a band for Friday that plays surf and such. So we have a live act now for Friday nights dig. Cool with me. The more surf the better!
Aloha,
Ahu

I am leaving friday morning in the Mobile Exploration Lab, and plan to be in Columbus by 5 PM.
Any must see road-side attractions along the route from Chicago to Columbus?
I will likely take US highways as much as I can, and then jump on the interstate if I start to run out of time...
See you all at the hop!
