well thats great, I have talked to him ,just not recently.I guess you are telling me you didnt know who he was until I mentioned him. If so excelent.

Hi Shannon ,you first alerted me to Martin when I read your blog, obviously I was aware of GTC and sourced him out .He seems real low key and a really great tattooer who is my first choice for future stuff . Hes working at Exclusive tattoos in Street ,Somerset although End of Trails seems to have followed him too as I saw a recent dream catcher he did !!

Ive been livin in Alabama fer bout 6yrs now. Doin the elevator thing, you know. Im OK. works real bad, the economy sucks right now.Gettin tired of the company man shit again. Painting more than tattooing, but still keepin my chops up. I did the first house fly Ive ever done on my girlfriend "Shannan" the other day. Its still fun. Im glad I still exist, sometimes i wonder, Ive had some lonely times. Im diggin the site,beautiful. Im finding it a nice place for those that know,you know. Sometimes i talk to younger tattooers that dont know who GTC is. Not good ,I think charlie's history is very important. gangster style,fine line in a shop, he did it. But he's a hard man to corner. Maybe get Nick to help you. you know what I mean. or maybe Martin. Anyways your still beautiful. oh yeah, wheres Nate? Ever talk to Harold ,I do every once in a while. He tried to be an elevator man for a while. please keep in touch. sgshirley1965@gmail.com
