Title: LA Ink
Post by: MeganJane on June 04, 2008, 12:19:05 am
I just bought the first season on DVD (only just came out in Australia and wasn't on TV).

Anyone else a fan?

I don't even know why I watch it half the time, but I really like watching it. There's just something so interesting about it, you know?

one of my friends actually just met Pixie Acia if you guys know who she is recently. she's a huge fan of the show & Kat & Pixie did her bully button piercing. she's really sweet in person & seemed shocked she had a fan lol.

oh & while she was there she met Kat's boyfriend, some Motley Cru (sp?) guy haha.

i wanna get my next tattoo done there, but i dunno how expensive they are.

But it was on pay TV. I haven't seen any episodes, just the previews, but I
like the concept of the show. It really clears up the myths, and for those in
a bind as to whether they should get 1 more patch this is added incentive

Nobody I know has pay TV.
It's not like everyone has it.
It wasn't on regular TV (free-to-air), at least not in SA.

But anyway....

Laura, I reckon it would be worth it even if it is expensive! At least you know that the artists are top-notch  :D
Pixie does seem sweet.

Or anywhere else; makes you wonder if the Free-to-air Networks thought
there might be some issues to overcome in broadcasting such a program.

Surely the educational value of this kind of material could see it adjascent
a prime-time slot on a weekend. A good follow up to a wildlife doco I say!

I'm pretty sure it would be popular.
But then Scrubs was played at 11pm for a while, and then at noon, and then they stopped broadcasting it because not enough people were watching. I wonder why, lol. I worked at a small DVD store, and we couldn't keep enough of the DVDs in stock. They were very popular.

yeah she said she was really nice.
she hugged my friend a few times since my friends a fan & was making sure she was okay while she was getting the piercing done lol. & she was happy to take a picture with her & sign something. she seems really down to earth from what i read on her blog.

I don't have any tattoos, but it was suggested to me today that due to my
identical twin bro's partiality to assuming my identity that I sould get one!

I work in hospitality, so it would have to be out of sight, but I like the idea
of something like the Tibetan one I've been posting pics of in this thread;

I drive by there all the time while I'm working.  I work less than 10 minutes from her shop.  Never tried to go or peak in!

Anyone else watch it?

I am in love with Kat Von D, she's really good, she's actually inspired me with my art, and made me consider being a tattoo artist if my projected career doesn't work out.

if you look at the casting to get on the show its a $100 minimum.
i think that's pretty good.
She's a phenomenal artist so its worth the money to have the security of it not turning out like crap and having to go get the extremely painful treatment done to remove it.
when i go to LA i am stopping by her shop and hopefully seeing her, or any of the other crew...they're all amazing, i wish they'd give me an apprenticeship.
