Abstract:
Kim Leach flipped on the tattoo machine and pressed it against David Giangiobbe's stomach - his abdomen tightened, he clenched his jaw.

Dont get a tattoo in Syracuse.

Like any other industry, the best talent goes to the biggest markets. Be it Artists, News Anchors, Musicians, Engineers or Strippers. There are much better tattoo artists in NYC. Upstate NY has a reputation for low production value across the board, and for good reason.

Dont be afraid to drive for something youre going to have the rest of your life. Or wait until January when the tattoo convention comes to Liverpool and you will have a cornucopia of choices from all over the region.
