I’m excited to be hitting the 11th Annual NYC Tattoo Convention this weekend in NYC. I know I’ll see tons of “awesome” tattoos, but I can’t wait to see some of my favorite artists like Dan DiMattia and Chris O’Donnell (who I have had a crush on for years! Shhh don’t tell!). Catching up with old friends alone is worth the trip. I’ve even heard whispers that Cere is getting some kind of “Life Time Achievement Award”.
I’m bringing my camera along to take some pictures since the last convention I went to was Buenos Aires and before that, Montreal. I won’t have a booth at the NYC convention (hell, they won’t even give me a press pass!) but if you see me, be sure to say hello!

Seriously, not a single English artist at all. What an odd state of affairs.

Maybe they’re just listed under a shop name? That would definitely be weird if there were no Brits! From what I’ve seen, the Ohio convention is competing fairly heavily with the NYC convention.

I noticed the distinct lack of Brits as well! Maybe we’re all basking in the hint of Summer going on at the moment, let’s face it, it’s all we’re likely to experience this year…

#8, I live in Pittsburgh. Having now seen a Clevelander say “Cleveland sucks,” from now on I will consider that statement to be axiomatic. Thanks.
