He's running a Bonsai/saikei landscape workshop with Tommy Lee (yes, THAT Tommy Lee--Pam's ex ). All proceeds to the California Bonsai Society's Ben Oki scholarship. Good for him. Bidding is already over$5 grand...Workshop will be April 15 in L.A.

@rockm youve got a theme going…

 

[rockm]

Yep, just helping you spend your $$$$$$$...

 

[yashu]

Thanks! Who needs all that $$$ anyway

Do you get to fly in that plane with the bonsai’s and tommy?

 

[Ruddigger]

6000 bucks? If you want to meet Tommy Lee just go to any Southern California bonsai event. He’s always there following Bob around.

It is a good cause though, I like what Bob’s doing with the scholarship.

Does not ring any bells.
6K? Is he THAT good?
I think that even Kimura's apprentice in Oregan does not charge that!?

It's an auction with the proceeds going for a cause.

yeah but still. To be honest, I have never heard of the guy, so why is he there and not e.g., bjorn? Or is this guy a well known artist/instructor over there?

He’s the drummer for Motley Crüe and got even more famous after his sex tape with Pam Anderson got out. He likes bonsai and pals around with Bob Pressler, he wont be doing any of the teaching I’m sure.

I was on the toilet the other day texting with Tommy about bonsai pots. He was on tour in Germany with Def Leppard. What a world we live in it is so small...

That's one of the most badass casual name drop type anecdotals I've ever read.

You're dating yourself ;-) As said, He was the drummer in very VERY big 1980's era hair band--Motley Crue. Married Pamela Anderson, who was a sex symbol at time.

That's hilarious. Your pots ARE The Shit BTW

 

[Wires_Guy_wires]

6K? That's just half a mirai tree! What a steal!

 

[nuttiest]

On the other end, it is sad what the ficus with name recognition of a long term artist went for on wigert's auctions last year. Maybe Lee and co bought some material so it has a history.

Huh?
Seriously? You do a workshop with a guy who does not know bonsai?
I presume Pam Anderson = keep her running Pamela Anderson?

Still.. Bit of an odd thing. But well. It keeps someone with lots of money off the street I suppose. Guess I have never been much into "knowing a star". Never understood the fan-fame type of attitudes.

whuuuut ? Its about brand recognition. You should know.

Why?

You're dating yourself

Maybe. Maybe not. Maybe I really just do not care.
