First ever Tattoo Convention in Hong Kong was just this week end. Artist from all over the world, good art, good music, good time and good inspiration from the next piece I'm gonna get soon. Nic, Rob, the Start Crossed guys, Gabe, DP, Draf, they were all there!! I will definitely join next year to do some leather work demonstration with the Black Needle team! I keep your word Gabe Shum.
A great found through Briton Bees!! Mr. Jake Robbins back in the UK is restarting to produce Girder forks the old way, all casting and brazing made. Great job that would look good on the Daytona!!

Not sure what to think about this reference...
Great gig from DP last Saturday for the 10th year anniversary of Paul arriving in Hong Kong. Cool crowd, cool space and My Hyena song to end the show. We want more!!!
