Glasshouse Swap Meet 9-20-08

My cousin and I will be hangin out making some art and slangin' T-shirts at the Glasshouse Swap meet in Pamona this saturday. Come one, come all.

IMA BITER!

There is the on going conversation of who stole what from who in the fashion industry. As far as I'm concerned it doesn't seem like anyone has an original idea, including myself. Well every once in a while I do. I just thought I'd blow myself out and show you exactly how I do it.

So when L.A. Ink first came to la, Melissa sent me a link to get on the show. I filled out all the paper work, sent it in, and I got a call the next day! I was all excited and then the woman started grilling me on the subject of the tattoo. I'm not one of those people that ponder tattoos very long, if i like it, I go for it. I've always loved TWIST (Barry McGee) and his infamous "screw" throw ups. Here are a few i've compiled off line. Anyway, she wanted me to get written permission from Barry himself to get the tattoo on the show. At first I was confused, bummed, and then I thought well, it could be a cool opportunity to try and make contact. I never did, so they never called back to go on the show. Until today. I guess they are getting desperate for material and don't care so much about logistics and legalities anymore. So one of these could potentially be my next tattoo.
