Well since I really didn't know anyone this year, didn't want to get in "your face" and have you wonder, who the hell this guy is. So I took general crowd shots of the group.
You can find pictures from Trader Vic's and the Conga Lounge at:

Next year, I'll hopefully be in your face 
Enjoy and download full size pictures and/or add captions if you'd like.
FYI: Pictures average 3 MB and sorry haven't had time to crop and/or fix pics so you get them as I shot them.

What else can be said but mahalo nui loa to everyone involved in making this night unforgetable. A special thanks to Martiki and his crew, Trader Vic's and to all the vendors and entertainers. Also, a big thanks to my girl Chongolia for all her help at the booth.
I can't begin to tell you how much I appreciated the postive input on the shirts and my artwork. It was pleasure meeting each and everyone of you. Sorry I missed the Conga Lounge, but I had a great time at Vic's getting to know Tikitony and the Adrift posse along with Christiki295.

Tikicleen,
That was actually my drunken alter ego you met Friday night. Those were the ramblings of a man kidnapped by friends at 10 am and forced to drink for the next 14 hours straight . . . or was it my idea to hit the bar for an early liquid lunch? Oh well I hadn't seen those guys in a year and we had a lot of catching up to do.
That picture is quite telling of my condition by the time we actually hooked up with the rest of the group. Not a pretty sight. But obviously in what ever condition I was in I was at least able to recognize true beauty in its rarest form.

Mahalo for a great night at Trader Vic,s first time in the Captain's Cabin for me. Kathy and Judy and I had a great time chatting with the KING. I think I'm suppose to send him some CDS,I think? Met Martiki and Chongolio, that framed print of the crawl will look cool in the bar. Thanks again to everyone who put this unique experience together.

Had this great plan to wait for my pics from the Conga Lounge to post. Heh heh. nothing turned out. Serves me right for going film instead of digital... Now my post is eons after the crawl and nobody cares anymore.  Anyway, if anyone has pics of the decor, please post or email me, I think there might be some good inspirations for a painting in that place (likewise if anyone has decor-type pics from the tonga room) The owner of the Conga Lounge, Michael, said he and his brother pooled their collections of tiki-related stuff when they opened the place and just started putting it up all over the walls. Turned out pretty great I think.
Anyway, a very cool bar and well worth the trip.

Hey there Travellin' Tiki -- I got lots of pics, more of the Tonga Room than the Conga Lounge, but maybe there will be something there you can work with. The pics aren't great, taking photos in these places requires a certain finesse (and a tripod) I just don't have yet.

Ok so I am a little slow to get things posted. Here is the latest set of pictures from the SF Crawl 2004. Sorry I wasn't around much for this Crawl, but I had to set priorities between seeing friends and following the crowd. Obviously Friday night I started drinking with friends way earlier than the rest of you.
