That's an understatement!!!
I could not handle the crowd...! I plan on coming back on another night so I can actually check out the art! I know there was art there, just couldn't actually see it!

Fantastic show! Great work! Cold beers! Yummy bacon!
Oh, and I went home with the awesome B-Ben bar. Look for it at upcoming Tiki Events. I do believe we'll travel with it.

Great show! Lots of great, diverse art and many great pieces were priced very reasonably. I had to split early but it was great seeing a lot of familiar faces!

Agreed, it was an incredible show!(I just wish it had a tadbit more elbowroom! I guess that's what happens when you cram in nearly 200 people inside a storefront gallery! I really enjoyed seeing alot of old familiar faces as well, and enjoyed the difibulator experience after ordering half of the menu off of the BaconMania truck! Thanks everyone who attended, it was definately a star studded event.(I just wish I'd have had enough money to buy everything, as the art was top notch and top shelf merch! Kudos to the Artists involved.
(oh and forgot to add, I was wondering if the "Toe 'ster" got his shoe seams bleached at the same place Kinny gets his ends/tips done?)  
Haha, I don't care what they said about yer comfort shoes, Toe....At least you were business up top...

So can we post full images of the art NOW? I came away with this stellar piece:
"WITCH DOCTOR PUPPET MASTER"
A striking homage to Jim Flora by Derek Yaniger. I fell in love with it and did not hesitate.

I got there around 9:45 pm,
had to go to Dinner for my Mom's b-day 1st.
but it was still pretty packed when I got there.
The Bacon truck out front helped to split up the crowd.
the only thing I was bummed about was.
By the time I got there, some of the art had sold, and was taken off the wall.
I thought that art stays on the wall till the show is over?
tells ya what I know about art shows.
