  1. I know of Matt Houston, Mitch Kirilo and Geoff McCann, but that's about it. Chris Hold from Sacred Heart looks like he does some quality tattoos.
  2. Who are some good tattooers in Vancouver? I know about Matt Houston at Gastown. But, other than that, I don't really know of any other good tattooers from that city.
  3. listen to jane doe and you fail. both of those albums are amazing.
  4. it's seriously mind boogling that someone with so much money wouldn't go to a great tattooer.
  5. you crazy. how the hell have you never listened to converge? converge will go down as one of the most influential and biggest metal/hardcore, punk bands of our generation.
  6. @CultExciter vocal test is seriously one of the best openers to an album. First Light and Last Light by converge, along with The Outsiders AKA Hell is for Heroes pt.1 by Modern Life is War and up their as well.
  7. sorry if this has already been discussed in here, but how amazing is the new converge album?
  8. with my blog, i only try to draw attention to quality tattooers that deserve mentioning. i really try to keep it positive and don't think that i've said anything negative about a tattooer or their work on there. i really don't want to bash someone or something. i'd rather just not give it any attention. as someone mentioned, mediums like IG and Tumblr may make the blog a little obsolete due to the pictures that i post, but the reason i started it was so i could write about tattooers and what not. the few times i've wrote even something small on my Tumblr, no one pays any attention to it. people just wanna see pics on there. also, thanks to those that read my blog. and yea, OV is an awesome blog. everyone should read it. - - - Updated - - - also, that critink tumblr is fucking garbage. just don't even bother with it.
  9. yo, you'll be the boss professor with tattoos. i feel like a college campus would be much more open about something like tattoos, but i could be mistaken.
  10. Dan S. dropping some knowledge. If you're in a position where you can get tattoos that are uncoverable, and it doesn't affect your ability to make the kind of money that you want to make, hell yeah. As others have said, you need to be realistic and realize that we live in a world where you will still be judged based on your appearance, and that having a tattoo on your hand, face, or neck could be looked at negatively by some people. i mean we still live in a country where people are religious freaks, don't believe in global warming, and think that the world is going to end next month. if you don't think you can still be judged for having tattoos, you may need to reconsider that thought. the reason people associate tattoos with criminality, was because for a very long time that was one of the biggest demographics of individuals that got tattoos. now, i'm not saying regular folks didn't get tattoos, but tattoos were definitely something linked to hoodlums, just as i mentioned with my dad. obviously, that has drastically changed with our generation, but that was the case when my dad was a youngen.
  11. i use palmers non-scented cocoa butter. shit is great.
  12. seriously can't wait to watch this. I hate that I can't check this thread out until after I watch the episode.
  13. My dad is a street dude. Born and raised in Brooklyn, in and out of jail, but cleaned himself up and managed to start a very successful carpentry business in Manhattan. Dude has both of his arms tattooed. When I started getting tattooed, he incessantly tried to stop me from getting them. From what he knows and is used to, only hoodlums such as himself got tattooed. When I worked for my dad for a little bit, I had pretty long hair, but no tattoos. My dad made me cut my hair if I wanted to continue working for him. He had gotten several complaints from his clients that I looked like a homeless, bum. Mind you, I was a college kid at this point. As much as people would like to think that others will treat you with respect based on your character and not based on your appearance, people don’t always do that, sadly. People judge others based on appearance still. tattoos have become much less taboo with our generation, but there is still a negative connotation attached to them. As Dan S. said, if you have aspirations to have some sort of white-collared job, I’d steer clear of tattoos on the hands, neck and face. When I walk around my office with my sleeves rolled up, I get looks sometimes, but overall I’ve never had a problem, primarily because I adhere with the dress code of my office. You can tell that there are definitely people that are uncomfortable with them. I had one dude tell me he thinks it’s rude that someone would walk around in a professional setting with tattoos show. Dude’s a turd, though, so it wasn’t really a surprise. One dude I work with has a very small tattoo in that little ditch between his pointer finger and thumb. Other than that, we’re the only two dudes tattooed. To be honest, I’m not a fan of having tattoos that you’re unable to hide. There are times when I don’t want people bugging and bothering me about my tattoos. Plus, I like the idea that, if I’m wearing long sleeves and pants, no one would know I have any tattoos. However, I totally understand the appeal and desire people have for them. Anyway, the jist of what I’m trying to say is I think Dan S. is on point.
  14. welcome, and good luck with the tattoo. sounds boss.
  15. haha sadly, i agree with this. if i were a hiring manager, and someone came to an interview with visibly well done tattoos, and had all the experience and skills necessary for what i was hiring for, i wouldn't give a shit.
  16. some of the people in those pics definitely look hardened by life.
  17. I finally watched yesterday's episode. By far my favorite. It was so god damn awesome. My gf had to tell me to be quiet several times because I kept talking about how awesome it was and how an 80 year old man is cooler than I can ever hope to be. Phenomenal job by the crew of the show. So excited that there will be 4 more episodes. I honestly feel giddy after watching it. I also think its awesome he will still tattoo is name for $30. - - - Updated - - - Loved this part
