where/when? i thought i remember seeing someone say that there was a shop that was going to be doing Fest tattoos?

who are the best artists in town?

Mike @ Anthem has done the best stuff I've seen in town.

I'v been considering a Fest Tattoo. Especially involving the tiger and flamingo's!

I hear that there will be tattoos at the Fest hotel downtown. He'll be working from his hotel room using disposable tubes and he's set to be hygienic. Cheap Fest tattoos!

this will be great!

i might get me one of these

How cheap? I'd love one, but I've also got other considerations to take into account.

I may be down for this.

And then I wasn't patient enough and went and got my fast tattoo early. I feel like a kid at Christmas.





My bloody bandage kinda excited me a little bit too.

I can't fucking wait.

cheater! couldn't even wait a week....

Only because last time when I came back for a touchup the dude asked me what I'd lubed it with.

"Beer and sweat". Because I'd gotten mine hours before the Fest preparty.


..woohoo drunk, btw, in case i can't type

good point...good point indeed

isn't it weird how no matter where on your body you get a tattoo done, you seem to then knock/rub/scratch that exact spot constantly for the next two weeks?

It is true. Everyone always wants to touch it too.

This morning my roommate, unawares that I was freshly tattooed, came up behind me and poked me in the arm, asking "What's that?" To which I calmly replied "Ooooowwww, fucker!"

He thought I got tagged by sharpies the night before until I yelled at him.

hahah dude your Fest tattoo rules. i have a funny fresh tattoo story, back when i was still hiding tattoos from my dad i had a fresh one on my back, one of his friends came to hug me and planted her hand firmly on my back and i writhed in pain and had to play it off as something else cause my dad was standing right there... what did i say? maybe sunburn? maybe bacne? haha i dont really remember, so long ago.

i hear ya about not wanting to writhe around in a sweaty sea of people with a fresh tattoo. the swelling is already bad enough.
