Nice preview! How much more is there? I think releaseing previews is only going to increase interest and number of people there on Sunday.

Are all of the pieces hanging at Miss Ls now? Will we able to see them all on Sat night? I'm working Sunday but if I see something I like I could give some cashola to a proxy bidder...

Great work GK. Liz and all the artists.

all the works are in the venue now, yes.
there are catalougues made up by lovely liz on the bar, so you can get an idea of who and what is what and set yoursefl some prices for bidding.

send a proxy for sure, but mellogs dad is a proffessional, so watch out ofr nose scratching!!

I tried to get the Seldom one, put in a few bids but I couldn't outdo everyone else who was into it. The price went up about $70 in 20 seconds and I just couldn't compete. :(

Fantastic effort on everyone's part. It was so much fun (and I'm very glad it was right near the door so I could keep doing my duty and be a part of the auction as well :D ). Big Up to Jerry's friend who paid $400 for a painting...su-fucking-perb :wink:

Not 100% sure, I wrote down all the prices on my auction sheet but left it in the door list clipboard. I think around $130-170 (I think)
