PANTYSTARTER -- Bring back the Tom Jones Panty Hut

Please help us as we try to revive an old school theme camp, the Tom Jones Panty and Instant Intimacy Hut! First started in 1997, the TJPH is a playa institution that introduced the wall of panties as BEST shade cloth ever. Well the most interesting at least. We just want your panties, the bigger the better, keep your cash for the big box. The previous walls and other items from the camp were hijacked by a camper who disappeared from existance. Send enough and get a Tom Jones Fridge Magnet!!!

For more information check this out.....

Hahahahahahaa!

I'll support in any way I can! That is to say: the only way I can.

(But if I don't see my cast-offs out there on the playa, I'm going to demand answers.)

True.

Although they request that donations are laundered . . .

This is clearly a class operation.

That's AWESOME!!! RIght now not sure how this will play out. We need enough to make at least one wall. I wanted to set it up at the roller disco, but most likely it will be at my friends camp which is location unknown right now. When location is known, I can tell you the info at M&G.

The original walls had one pair with a that time of the month stain on it. It was so gross to look at.

That's your friend's fault. Check the wording on their site. :shock:

I think it's funny that someone took them up on it.

I misquoted there, the second response was to "Although they request that donations are laundered . . ."

Is there wording on the site that is not correct? Just wondering....

And if they were coming to me, which they are not, I would probably break the decommodification rule and sell them to the highest bidder on eplaya. I'd surely make enough to retire....... :lol: :idea: :lol:

Love this! One year when I camped with Cafe Village, I was right across the alley from the roller disco, but kept hearing bits of What's New, Pussycat & Deliliah at odd hours, and thought, "that's not the roller disco, is it?" Followed the sound one day and did stumble upon the Tom Jones Panty Camp. Most imaginative shade structure ever. :D

Welcome back, and I will peruse my panty drawer. I'm sure I've got a few pairs to donate. But I'll tell ya, thongs & g-strings don't work well for shade. Granny panties, yes!

It is pretty much official. The Tom Jones Panty Hut will again reside within the Black Rock Roller Disco as it has off and on for 10 years. Look for the monkey hut with panties blaring What's New Pussycat!!!! And give up your panties on playa for free drinks all week!!!

A bit of history.... Tom jones camp started in late 90s and was over 50 strong in 2000.I believe cafe village inherited the pink pussycat that was the camp entrance stored at ranch, I saw it back there in 03. My first burn in 2001 was with tom jones and we had 30 people and a school bus, the next year it was 3 of us and my pickup and in 2003 became hidden somewhere in roller disco the next number of years until the inheritor of the panties went off the deep end and left town with them. Time for a revival!! And the panties and thongs make good strings, will look great over the monkey hut.

I was listening to an interview with a former member of a band that toured with Tom in the early early days. By this guys recount: When the tour bus rolled in, and the young ladies were swarming, he would look out the window, and wave and interact. He also would have his pants down, and ask his penis, "Wendell" something to the effect of "Which ones do you want, Wendell?"

WWTD?

Sometimes he asks the question: WDWW?

(What does Wendell want?)

I built and painted that pussycat. 99 or 2000 IIRC. :D

Last I heard it was in a garage in the city years ago. I had always assumed it was sacrificed at some point. Good times at the hut.

That is awesome CoffeeJunkie!!! Nice pic of Lt. Dan! Not sure when the first year actually was, and I know there was a passing of the guard at some point. Well now it is my vision. The only thing out of my control now are the panty walls. My friend Skatey Katey is *hopefully* handling that. She does need materials, so SEND US YOUR PANTIES. On Playa donations are. the best, so stop on by and see us in the Roller Disco! I am shooting for a happy hour 5ish on Thursday rightbefore the roller derby match.

Its too bad princess skipped town with the original walls, quite a masterpiece. And awesome pink pussycat! It definitely was at the cafe camp in 03. Here is a shoot from that years map that I found two nights ago, the first year we totally took over roller disco....

Princess Captain, Lt Dan, Mr Steve, Evil Ed, Skipper and the rest... ahh memories.

I am sure you guys will do the Hut justice. Best of luck getting back up and running. As far as the panties... "We can rebuild!" :D

Hopefully we will be back on the Playa in 2014 and stop by for some 0' dark 30 "What's new pussycat" and libations.
