real meta Posted August 12, 2014 Share Posted August 12, 2014 I really wanted to make it to this convention, but I'm in the middle of moving and all the time and expense associated with that made it unrealistic. Seems like it was a success though, so hopefully I and everyone else who missed out will get another shot next year. It was complete torture knowing that Steve Byrne was so close and I wasn't getting tattooed by him—ever since he did a Rose of No Man's Land on my upper arm last summer I've wanted him to add to it and fill out my arm more. Same thing goes for Chad Koeplinger, I feel like he's never within striking distance of PA. I'll be there Sunday, but I think just hanging out. Was planning on getting tattooed by Scott Sylvia again, but he had to postpone his trip east. Do you know if he has a shop/convention and dates lined up, or is he just hoping to make it out this way at some point? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
huggernaut Posted August 12, 2014 Share Posted August 12, 2014 Do you know if he has a shop/convention and dates lined up, or is he just hoping to make it out this way at some point? From what I heard, hopefully a trip East this fall, no concrete dates yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
suburbanxcore Posted August 12, 2014 Author Share Posted August 12, 2014 Pretty much. In his email, he told me he was hoping to plan a trip to Kings Ave sometime in the fall. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
suburbanxcore Posted July 6, 2015 Author Share Posted July 6, 2015 Anyone going this year? tatB 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tatB Posted July 13, 2015 Share Posted July 13, 2015 Anyone going this year? I'll be there on the Friday trying not to cry while Mike tattoos my back (most likely the rib area). Hoping the convention atmosphere will help time move faster. suburbanxcore and Graeme 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
suburbanxcore Posted July 17, 2015 Author Share Posted July 17, 2015 @BrianH I'll be there on Friday, first appt of the convention for Scott Sylvia. When is your appointment? There's a sort of tacky, but decent, Mexican restaurant across the way if you wanna grab some food or drinks. Same for anyone else who may be there!

suburbanxcore Posted August 10, 2015 Author Share Posted August 10, 2015 This was awesome, and I got to meet @BrianH and make awkward eye contact with him while we were both in pain and he was shirtless. tatB and Graeme 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gingerninja Posted August 10, 2015 Share Posted August 10, 2015 I "met" you @suburbanxcore. I love your new tattoo! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tatB Posted August 10, 2015 Share Posted August 10, 2015 @suburbanxcore we should've had a staring contest. shirtless. suburbanxcore 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
suburbanxcore Posted August 10, 2015 Author Share Posted August 10, 2015 I'm actually pretty sure all three of us were in a sort of row at the same time, @BrianH and @Gingerninja. All in all, a very good time, and we all got killer tattoos (or progress) out of it. I like the idea of us having a shirtless staring contest....especially since I was only getting my leg tattooed. tatB 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
