Padji Posted February 6, 2018 Share Posted February 6, 2018 Just booked in with Forrest Cavacco (intsa: iamthecobra) in Plymouth MA in June I arrive the week beginning 18th June and have an apt for the 22nd. Will be getting a snake across my stomach/ribs to go in tandem with my chest eagle (a 'Battle Royale'-type scene). Will hopefully get the remainder finished during my time in Boston over the summer. Attached is the current chest piece for reference (by Chris Stuart in Charlotte and Limerick, Ireland).

Boiled Dove Posted February 10, 2018 Share Posted February 10, 2018 Chad Koeplinger is coming back to NH next month and I was able to get in with him again. Gonna work on something for the rest of the forearm where he made a torch last year. Gingerninja, Oiocha and SStu 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rdinak Posted March 11, 2018 Share Posted March 11, 2018 I am having an ink jones. Still planning on a large Japanese back piece to tie into my dragon. So I am going in Thursday to get a traditional Sailor Jerry dagger on my left shoulder. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Synesthesia Posted March 11, 2018 Share Posted March 11, 2018 Nothing concrete yet, but my tentative plans through the end of the year: 1) Doing a "get what you get" from my favorite local shop within a couple weeks or so 2) A couple pieces at Pagoda City Fest this August, not sure who yet since I'm not sure who'll be there...hoping to get one of my knees done at least 3) A piece in New Orleans while I'm down there on my honeymoon (!) this November, maybe some love-related flash or something Oiocha, SStu and Gingerninja 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oiocha Posted March 11, 2018 Share Posted March 11, 2018 Pagoda always has a killer list, I'm sure you'll get something great as long as you get tattooed. Gingerninja 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's actually going to be hard to narrow it down once people start confirming they'll be there. And I live less than an hour away so I'm reeeeally debating making the drive up every one of the three days and potentially getting tattooed every day, which would be very bad for my bank account.

AverageJer Posted March 12, 2018 Share Posted March 12, 2018 Going to NYC in May and thinking of trying to do a walk in at Smith Street for a small flash piece. Any thoughts on this? Should I try to make an appointment. I won't be too sad if it doesn't work out but it would be cool if it did. Gingerninja 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gingerninja Posted March 12, 2018 Share Posted March 12, 2018 Call Smith Street! @AverageJer You never get what you don't ask for. :) You can always drop by, too. You never know. I am so looking forward to Pagoda, already. @Synesthesia I am back in with Grez but no other plans at the moment for anything else.

If you want something custom and can schedule 1 month or 3 in advance check out the guys at Eye Candy. If you want something quick and off the cuff = what style, and where are you staying?

We're going to stay outside of New Orleans since it's soooo much cheaper, and just drive into town. We're looking at a couple places in Slidell right now but haven't decided yet. As far as the tattoo itself goes, I was kind of just thinking about getting some flash off the wall. Besides your basic hearts and other lovey stuff, the one idea I have right now is just a traditional rose in orange, since that's one of my wedding flowers. But who knows what might catch my eye. Some of the shops I was eyeing were Good Work, Tattooagogo, and Oak Street, but I'm always up for suggestions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SStu Posted March 14, 2018 Share Posted March 14, 2018 @Synesthesia If your target tourism destination is the French Quarter, don't forget to factor in parking when doing comparisons. It's gonna cost you $30-60/day, but you can always park in the Bywater and hoof it in. Downtown Tattoo is good for in/out stuff, usually - and it's right in the heart of Frenchman Street, too (an authentic local music destination).

There's plenty outside of the French Quarter that I'd like to see and do (swamp tours! vinyl hunting! live music! museums!) but yeah, I'll have to factor in parking for those busier days/nights on Bourbon Street.

pidjones Posted March 15, 2018 Share Posted March 15, 2018 We stayed across the river in Algiers, took the ferry across, drawback is last run not very late. Stayed at Federal City Inn and Suites on an old Navy base. Once in NOLA you can walk or take street car (get an all-day pass cheap). Honestly, NOLA was disappointing for us, but we are old farts. Traffic in NOLA was awful. Glad we left the bike in Algiers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SStu Posted March 15, 2018 Share Posted March 15, 2018 Unless you're pretty young, you do the whole Bourbon St experience in about 2 hours or less. I'd recommend enjoying the FQ during the day and heading out to Frenchman and the surrounding neighborhoods to enjoy local (non-cover) music. B&Bs in Algiers Point are an excellent choice. Casa Pelican is an great choice, and reasonable. The $2 ferry and uber are your friends. Gingerninja and pidjones 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
