cltattooing Posted March 5, 2014 Share Posted March 5, 2014 Hey! So my mom and her choir are singing at Carnegie Hall this spring (rad!) and I'm coming along to be there with her for this major accomplishment, and to spend some time in the Big Apple. We'll be there May 31st through June 5th. I won't be working, but I do intend on checking out some of the incredible shops located within the city, and see some of the better things that NYC has to offer. If anyone would like to meet up and get dinner/beer/whatever, let me know! Also, I've gotten a few suggestions as to the fun non-touristy things to check out in the city, but would love some more suggestions. I am contemplating bringing stickers/prints/originals with me if anyone wants anything while I'm in town. Cheers y'all!

dane Posted March 5, 2014 Share Posted March 5, 2014 Me and my lady just got our tickets to NYC for June 3rd thru 11th. I want to spend a day checking out some shops and get tattooed. I've never been out there before, I'd be stoked on some suggestions for shops to check out. My only plan is to get tattooed at Smith St. and skate around. cltattooing and CABS 2 Quote Link to comment https://www.lastsparrowtattoo.com/forum/t/4884-travelling-to-nyc-spring-2014/#findComment-87038 Share on other sites More sharing options...
MadeIndelible Posted March 5, 2014 Share Posted March 5, 2014 I made this blog post about my NYC trip in 2012. Didn't make many touristy stops, but it might be worth a read. motsimus and cltattooing 2 Quote Link to comment https://www.lastsparrowtattoo.com/forum/t/4884-travelling-to-nyc-spring-2014/#findComment-87039 Share on other sites More sharing options...

MLNYC Posted March 5, 2014 Share Posted March 5, 2014 Avoid Manhattan is the best advice you will receive, just go in to the specific tattoo stores then get out ASAP haha. NYC is brilliant though for sure cltattooing and eisen777 2 Quote Link to comment https://www.lastsparrowtattoo.com/forum/t/4884-travelling-to-nyc-spring-2014/#findComment-87081 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bunny Switchblade Posted March 5, 2014 Share Posted March 5, 2014 If you are interested in some tattoo history then hit Brooklyn and stop by and get tattooed by Mike Perfetto and even Tony Polito is tattooing again (for now) on Saturdays! Smith Street is a definite need to stop by as well! Many good shops and awesome tattoo artists.......you'll have a blast!

Bunny Switchblade Posted March 5, 2014 Share Posted March 5, 2014 If you are truly interested in getting something from Tony Polito let me know and I can put you in touch with him! To get tattooed by Mike Perfetto you need to show up early and put your name on his list.....I think he starts tattooing around 2-3 in the afternoon but the list goes up earlier and you put your name on it! As long as you are there when your name is called then you don;t get bumped....LOL It's a cool experience to be tattooed by both of these gentlemen! :) cltattooing 1 Quote Link to comment https://www.lastsparrowtattoo.com/forum/t/4884-travelling-to-nyc-spring-2014/#findComment-87120 Share on other sites More sharing options...
cltattooing Posted March 5, 2014 Author Share Posted March 5, 2014 I'm gonna check in with la mama and see what's up with our itinerary, cause the trip is first and foremost for mom/daughter time and I don't wanna be all selfish prancing around NYC getting tattoo after tattoo. But! If there is time, I'll definitely let you know, cause how cool would that be :cool: Bunny Switchblade 1 Quote Link to comment https://www.lastsparrowtattoo.com/forum/t/4884-travelling-to-nyc-spring-2014/#findComment-87150 Share on other sites More sharing options...
