sophistre Posted August 22, 2015 Share Posted August 22, 2015 "I've been kind of interested in a foo dog.". Stewart Robson. Done! "Maybe a really excellent lady head?". Valerie Vargas. Done! (...) Then, with this list of attendees I don't really need too. You'll just find yourself in a chair in a happy tattoo overloaded daze.Ha! I wouldn't hate anything about this arrangement! I will be astonished if I can make that happen, but I'd do it in a heartbeat. You're right about the other stuff, though. It'll probably be hard to lose, wherever I end up. Can't wait to find out. :cool: Lance 1 Quote Link to comment https://www.lastsparrowtattoo.com/forum/t/6463-2015-bay-area-convention-of-the-tattoo-arts/?page=2#findComment-118823 Share on other sites More sharing options...

I booked my ticket on Monday night and woke up with a text from Shad...and booked another ticket for a same-day roundtrip in and out of SF for mid-October...It's gonna be an expensive month!! But such a good one! Looking forward to seeing all my Bay Area buddies and LST friends old and new!

Dan Posted September 12, 2015 Share Posted September 12, 2015 Hellloooo everybody!!It's that time of year again...where we all start oohing and aahing over the lineup for the Bay Area convention and some of us start talkin' travel. @sophistre and I met up yesterday and decided that it would probably be fun as hell to go, so the PNW will be representing for sure. Who else is in? Any plans? I'm just hoping to get the conversation going!! is there a day and time and place for a LST meetup at the convention ? I might go this year , so you all may have the pleasure of meeting me ! LOL saturday is a good day for me.

sophistre Posted September 12, 2015 Share Posted September 12, 2015 UGH, all of that conversation about it, and now I don't think I can go. My AC/heat pump/furnace are on the fritz (AGAIN) and I'm pretty sure this means I don't have the funds to sort that out AND have surgery in November and still do this convention. :( Next year, though. Next year for sure.

Lance Posted September 16, 2015 Share Posted September 16, 2015 Oh no @sophistre, such bad timing. What a shame. Btw, I think you may be the only person I know in the PNW that actually has AC. Those 2 months of the year are scorchers though.

Tight-Lines Posted September 16, 2015 Share Posted September 16, 2015 I'll be there on Saturday too! I'm trying to convince myself to come out on Saturday as well, but after the other knee gets finished, the likelihood of that happening is pretty low. I really wanted to also get something from Danny Reed this year, too.

HAHA. I know. They're all crazy up here. When I was looking at houses my friends in the area were like 'you don't need it up here! It never gets that hot!' and EVERY YEAR they pop into voice chat when we're gaming like 'OH MY GOD WHY IS IT SO HOT I AM DYING.' I know it's unflattering to be smug, but... :rolleyes: polliwog and Lance 2 Quote Link to comment https://www.lastsparrowtattoo.com/forum/t/6463-2015-bay-area-convention-of-the-tattoo-arts/?page=2#findComment-119724 Share on other sites More sharing options...
polliwog Posted October 1, 2015 Share Posted October 1, 2015 Where have you all stayed in the past when traveling to this convention from out of town? I'm going to LA with my partner in late October and would really like to travel up for the convention before going back home. Sort of apprehensive about trying Airbnb though I probably shouldn't be. Edit: turns out my boyfriend can't make it anyway, so I would probably stay at the convention hotel if I can do this. People who responded: thanks!

smiling.politely Posted October 23, 2015 Share Posted October 23, 2015 Had planned a week long vacation for this, my first time to California as well... but life happens and that is no longer an option. But I already had an appointment booked, and couldn't bear to cancel that in addition to all the other fun stuff that already had to go away. So, I'm flying out the morning of Friday the 30th, getting tattooed that night by Stewart, then flying back to Kansas just after midnight. Before the doors open, I'm hoping to check out the Visionary Subversive show, grab some sushi somewhere, spend what money I have left as irresponsibly as possible post tattoo, before scuttling off into the night. Wish I had more time to spend there, but it just means that I have no choice but to go back and properly see the Bay Area as soon as I can!

MadeIndelible Posted October 23, 2015 Share Posted October 23, 2015 @smiling.politely If I can make a suggestion, North Beach Sushi is an awesome sushi spot, which just so happens to be right near Tattoo City.

Lance Posted October 24, 2015 Share Posted October 24, 2015 1 more week! I can't wait! I think I have a session with Jill Bonny before the convention on Friday. Hopefully I won't be wiped out too bad by the time it starts. I should be there all day/night Friday and Saturday. For now I plan on going Sunday as well but may opt to get a short session in with Jill again before my flight in the evening. I'd love to meet up with everyone. @CABS, @cvportagee, and I tried this great Japanese place down the street last year. It's well worth it if anyone is interested in meeting for a bite or drinks. Feel free to introduce yourself if I havent met you previously. I'd love to meet other LST folks. I'll be a pudgy 'Steve Aoki' with glasses. Likely wearing dark colors. Black/grey sleeves. @MoistTowelette, are you working a booth this year? @beez, did the Shad appointment happen? cltattooing and beez 2 Quote Link to comment https://www.lastsparrowtattoo.com/forum/t/6463-2015-bay-area-convention-of-the-tattoo-arts/?page=2#findComment-121049 Share on other sites More sharing options...
