TNT Tattoo Art Gallery will hold its 5th Annual Burning Tiki Man event on Saturday, Oct. 24.
Billy "Spacey" Lyons and his wife, Rachelle, have been getting their TNT Tattoo Art Gallery ready for this year's round of Halloween adventure, which will include music, skits, live bands, food, beer, art, and contests.
DJ Garret (Garrett Ip) will be there.
"He has been a very important staple in the Meridian dance scene since the mid '90s," Spacey said. "He has always been a very progressive act and knows his music very well. We look forward to hearing what Garrett has in store for Tiki Man 5."
Several bands are being lined up, including The Damn Right!, Dark Sundays, and Spacey's Misfits cover band DIE Monster DIE!
The famous Worst Tattoo Contest will be open with several categories this year. The winner gets a free cover up from Spacey.
And of course their costume contest returns with "awesome prizes" Spacey said no one will want to miss.
For those who want to take out some aggression, a junk car donated by Jay's Performance Muffler will be on the grounds for people to smack with an ax or hammer.
Abstract paintings with a Halloween theme by Stephen Owen Gillespie (SOG) will be on exhibit in the gallery.
Spacey likes to showcase his art installation during Burning Tiki Man events. An artist who works on wood, metal, and skin, he calls the annual gathering there a living, breathing exhibit.
