@Kev, yes!!!

I think it's almost mandatory you get an NYC tattoo at Smith St. at some point.

Yeah man. I think most of us know that it isn't very polite to discuss how much someone charged you, etc etc. People who make it about the money don't care about the art. Luckily, those of us who actually get solid tattoos by solid tattooers can say so. I mean, bragging itself is poor manners, but it sure is nice knowing in your head.

My mom told me a story once about how she was checking out at the grocery store. The person in front of her was covered in shitty tattoos. She called me later, relayed the story and said, "The only thing I could think was my son has so much nicer looking tattoos." :)

^^^^^^. I second that. I've been wanting to get down to Hot Stuff for some time. My friends own a record shop called Harvest just down the street.

They booked an appointment for Steve, but he doesn't work on Saturdays. Which was totally ok, because Eli Quinters came through and banged this out. Dude is so rad! (Sorry for the fuzzy pic.)

Getting tattooed by Steve Boltz in less than 2 hours. Images imminent.

I'm in NYC tonight, tomorrow, and Sunday. Well, seeing Refused on Sunday. Squidpant party?

This is one of my favorite images. I am stoked to wear it.

Haha, I hope so too. I didn't have the Wacom tablet hooked up. Oh crap, let's face it, I was never that good at drawing circles anyhow.

YES! That has been in my head the last couple of day!

Yikes dude. I don't know man, that's tough. Tattoos aren't perfect as they are done by human beings, who aren't perfect. But, you are going for a distinct look and feel, so it doesn't sound like you're gonna be too happy either way. Let it heal. Try not to fret too much, and then go to Jinx Proof ^^^^^^ and get it lasered off! Ok, you might now need to go to DC, but you'd probably be happier getting it removed and then starting fresh.

I've always wanted to get "Last Time" on the inside of fingers. Haven't gotten around to it yet.

Which one do you guys like? I like both and its hard, I just want to get one. I'm also getting a quote on my left side of my calf so I don't want so many tats.

Yeah, you don't want too many tats.

This was the first issue I worked on, so I always get stoked seeing my name in print. Those guys are super rad to work with.

And, I'm a total idiot. I see it there on the side now. Blargh.

it makes me think of this awful awful AxCx song title--"Body By Aushwitz." yet it wasn't awful enough for me not to relay. Oh dear, my Bubbeh isn't proud.

everybody needs the 13!

Super cool. I've added a couple already myself. One small quip/suggestion? Could this be sortable by state/country? It might make it easier to navigate? I'm just a little OCD about sorting.

I was a late comer to that joke, but I shared it with my girl right away. She definitely thought I was bonkers for a hot minute.

AND...welcome. If you're like me, these fine folks on LST will start to feel like real imaginary friends!

Do you have any recommendations for starting a program. I have books and weight lifting anatomy charts.

I'm 6'1", about 220 lbs. Mostly beer belly. I was a runner for years and spent the better part of my 20's at around 170lbs.

But my knees suck now, and I want to get tone, stronger, and get fit again. I can't seem to find a program that actually feels like it is working.

I should also add I'm a vegetarian, but my eating habits suck. Comes with working 10 hour days.

This is how I spend my leisure time:

I like turtles.

That said...Welcome!

It'll go perfect with a bunch of California Raisins! That chick was HOT!

I've watched them all several times! So dang good. I would love to see so many people featured though.

Yeah man, definitely get an appointment I'm planning a trip to fly out there myself. People travel far to get tattooed by those fellas.

If you have the time, stop into the shop and chat about it. It'll make you more comfortable. But, if I had to postulate, bring three or four bills depending on the size. I'm assuming this is just a smaller one-point thing. That way you can overshoot, and have enough to tip like a champ.
