...just curious if anyone knows about when this puppy is going to ship?
I keep getting "Do You Want To Cancel Order?" emails from AMAZON?

The only update I've seen is this trailer for Remixed on YouTube:

Still, no release date mentioned.

The interesting thing is, Remixed has shown as In Stock on the SLG Publishing web site for a while.

Guess we will just have to keep waiting until Amazon figures it out

Info from Club Tiki Press says:
"The new Beach Bum Berry book which was originally due out in November has been sent to the printer and will now be available in mid-February. Those of you who pre-ordered the book on Amazon should not have to do anything unless you would like to cancel your order."
Also some news about Taboo Table:
"But, have no fear, Tabboo Table is indeed going to be back in print, but the new ship date for the second printing is now the last week of February, so we should start seeing copies out to Amazon the first week of March. Our apologies for the delay, unforeseen holiday issues and some other stuff just got in the way.
So, DO NOT pay $75 for this thing on eBay or Amazon. Unless, of course, you need it now."

Just this past weekend a couple of copies were seen in the Mai Kai gift shop so they are out there.... don't cancel your Amazon order just yet.

Last I heard from Jeff was "some time in early March" so it should be out really really really really soon.

Nice! I didn't even know they were putting Taboo Table back into print. Of course Amazon has no indication of that...

HI there
Kust so you know, the copies of the Beachbum Berry Remixed book are going to be delivered to our warehouse tomorrow. We will ship them out either Friday or Monday to our distributor, it might take a couple of weeks for the books to find their way to Amazon, but keep your preorder there as it is the best price you are going to find on them.
We did have some copies that were put into inventory at SLGCOMIC.COM, they were part of the advance copies we got from the printer and were not meant for sale.
Taboo Table will be arriving in our warehouse next week and we will be putting up our copies in our Amazon third party seller central store then.
We will update our Club Tiki Press website (www.clubtiki.com) as things develop.
Thanks very much.

Danslave, is it best to order through Amazon, or can we order directly through SLG? I try to order stuff as close to the "source" as possible to support artists, musicians, etc.

Hi,
Just thought I'd let everyone know that it's possible to order Beachbum Berry Remixed directly from SLG Publishing here:
http://www.slgcomic.com/Beachbum-Berry-Remixed-A-Gallery-of-Tiki-Drinks_p_1413.html
(sorry--new here and haven't quite figured out how to hyperlink yet)
After seeing it on pre-order on Amazon last month, I went to the publisher's website to find the release date and saw that it was listed as in stock there; I immediately ordered it and received my copy about a week later. Only downside was that I paid full price plus shipping (it came to a little over $30), but this book is worth every penny. I've read it cover to cover a few times already. Surfin' Safari is what really got me into tiki culture and exotic drinks, so I missed out on Grog Log and Intoxica. It's great to have them both in one book, plus the appendices with the new recipes from Berry and the tiki revival. Great, great stuff.
BTW, one of the new recipes in Appendix 2 is the Reverb Crash--the winning drink from the TC contest!

I hope this is all true. 'remixed' isn't even available for pre-order anymore at Amazon. There's now just a button to click if you'd like to be emailed if it becomes available again. It's been my experience with other things on Amazon that this is the kiss of death - there's none now and no real prospect of gettin any more of them. I don't know if this just means all pre-order copies are sold out and they won't be getting any additional, or what. I checked and my pre-order is still there in the system, it's not been cancelled and I haven't received any emails from Amazon one way or the other... Keeping my fingers crossed.

Yeah, I don't know what's going on at Amazon. I originally ordered 2 copies back in August, but when I checked the status the other day it said only 1 copy and no release date. Whatever.
Out of frustration I also ordered one from SLG directly - yes it was like $30, but after about a week it arrived yesterday...there was much joy in the Rhum Rhum Room last night.
