I'm sure they had complaints from people about the swastikas (and yes I do know its Hindu roots........bloody Nazi's!).

Is this the one that's been on in Midleton or is that over? Wanted to go the last few years but never made it down.

Will

I will be there Really looking forward to it

Midleton is the end of June chin grin

Thanks man. Thought this was replacing it or something, or I'm just too lazy to actually search the likes of facebook. Yeah, probably the latter.

Gentleman and amazing artist, The torture garden are doing a suspension show aswell, 3 hanging off each other :eek:

Will

Were you at it last year? I'm debating whether to camp or not

Elbow

Nah wasn't there last year, from what I hear there'll be action 24/7 for the few days so the tent won't see much use

Will

Yeah? Sweet Super excited for it, hopefully the weather will hold out

Elbow

Ya hopefully, planning on getting any work done?

Will

Not planning on anything but ya never know what could happen over the course of 4 days

Elbow

My 1/2 sleeve is being finished a week before the festival so i think thats my tattoo quota for this year

Shelli2

I'll be there, all weekend, can't friggin wait. Wanted to go last year but missed it and was raging afterwards listening to all the rave reviews!

See you guys there

(Oh and Will, I won't be letting anyone stretch my ears this time....at least without talking to you first LOL)

Will

Ha ha, well don't use those ones anyway drunkenly yanking spirals out of your lobes

Shelli2

Ah they've sufficiently recovered now....will be on the hunt for a nice pair of 11mm now

Not getting anything done (ink-wise) at cobh, don't fancy tryin to keep it clean on a campsite....too poor to afford booze and clean accomodation at the same time so guess which came up trumps

Elbow

Unofficial Tattoos & Piercing beers?


(I'm having notions of gettin a hand poked mantra now )
