New shirts also on grey heathered cotton, guys and girls cut.

The Dude runs the ING NYC Marathon

What better way to inspire your coworkers to get healthy than for the boss

to go out and run 26.2 miles?  My finish time was 05:06:26, a bit slow,

but heck this won't be the last one!  Simone is doing a 30 day hot yoga

challenge, not your typical hard knocking tattoo artists, huh?

New York Times shows us some love:

Click Here for a great little article about our removal from the Chelsea Hotel

by the new Tattoo Hating owners, who don't feel the art of tattoos

embodies "Life Style" or really that they fear rich snobs won't appreciate

our studio even though we've always practiced by the highest standards.

 

 

R.I.P. Steve Jobs, I miss you already

Rising Dragon loves Apple products, Iphones, Ipods but mostly the

computers.  I've been using an Apple computer since they first came out with

the Macintosh in 1984.  How's that for commitment in a relationship?

We lose our first legal shop:

Some Bad News for you folks hoping for the Best New York Tattoos at our

original location at the Hotel Chelsea. 

I got this location after tattooing was made legal in 1997 after Rudy Giuliani

of all people repealed the old law put into effect in 1961.

The building has been sold and

will now be catering to the upper crust of New York Society.  According to

the projext manager, they want "life style" shops that apparently doesn't

include tattooing but does include $3-$5 donuts at the Donut Plant.

  Chelsea Guitars was given a pass, so Rock & Roll, good, Great tattoos on

skin by reputable tattoo studio bad. Hmmph?!

Spotted:

Tony Hawk came by the our nyc tattoo studio for a cover-up of the letter

"L" on his finger.  Unfortunately what he wanted, the iphone on/off button

wouldn't have covered up the old tattoo properly.

I gave him numerous other ideas but Tony Hawk was adamant on that

Iphonebutton.  I'm gonna have to get one of these phones already and find

out why everyone is so obsessed!
