I attended a great party at the closing of the last true Polynesian restaurant. Wonderful bamboo decor with over 100 aquariums. The back room was full of low-brow artists displaying their wares, with many pieces made for this event. The Pizz, VonFranco, a fresh-from-the commercial sector Josh Agle with a smokin' hot girlfriend, etc. were all present. Every parking spot close was loaded with great traditional rides. I don't recall how many clubs were present. Somewhere on that 8000+ mile roadtrip a**** 30+ rolls of film, the roll from that night was lost unfortunately. Indubitably HAMBers may provide pieces I'm missing: name of restaurant/event artists/clubs present link to pics online? Thank you in advance.
