Wow
10 years, time flies when you're having fun. Tattooing's come a long
way in the last 10 years here in the big apple. 10 years ago we were
kind of out of the loop in the tattoo world. 10 years ago we came out
of a tattooing dark ages following the ban that lasted 30+ years. Now
here we are and we have one of the best conventions in the country,
tons of talent all around and I think the tightest tattoo community around, Of course I'm biased, yet something about the city, maybe
the close quarters, maybe the grit and grime, the energy, the history really makes
the tattoo scene here unique. This past weekend we all got to toast 10 years well spent taking back our spot in the global tattoo scene. A big thanks to guys who run the show at Roseland, (Bonge, Butch, Clayton) who give us all a chance to get together once a year, hang out and have something to look forward to the next time around.
