The art show is great...And I do mean the show not just the opening, so if yer boo-hoo-hooin' 'bout not bein there last night dry yer eyes and see about seein' the show...Hangin' til October 9. (And I'd guess the gallery, which was still packed at 8:30 when we got there, won't smell like a men's locker room the resta the show.)
Mosta the stuff has to be seen in person to really blow yer mind. The online images and catalog are good, but seein' them in real life makes a huge difference. There were several pieces I was indifferent about when I saw 'em on line but I was really impressed when I got eye-to-eye with 'em.
PS: I can't recall what the special mug looked like exactly. I got there late and it looked like they were all gone and I just glimpsed one a fella was buyin'. I was a little distracted by a swell Moai lamp on the counter near him.

I would like to thank Otto for bringing together a really incredible Tiki Art show...it was most definitely a huge success on a perfect night and I'm really glad I got to finally attend one. It was great finally meeting Otto in person as well. Lushy was fun to hear as always, and Selector Lopaka did a fantastic job with the music at Roq La Rue. I personally had a very fun time and hope to get to go to another one in the future...

A belated massive mahalo to Otto and the sisters of Roq La Rue for hosting such a great event all around, and in my hometown to boot. I feel blessed and honored to have been able to participate. Next to the Garfield High School Class of 1985 20th reunion, it was my most satisfying DJ gig. The art looks beautiful and even more beautiful with red dots. Congrats to all the artists!

The Tiki Art Now show Otto curated at Roq la Rue Gallery was super fab, the opening was incredible and the press it got was amazing. We hope everyone had as good of time as we did!
Jo and I posted a few photos of the opening online, along with some pix of some of the home tiki bars we all visited.
We'll see you next year at Tiki Oasis!
