Music Cincinnati is a Midwest. People have a nice laid back, relaxed attitude. And, They're giving you their body, So you've got one shot to get it in there and get it done right. I was interested in tattoos from when I was a little kid. I mean, my grandfather was tattooed and seeing him get tattooed. I mean, I have the same tattoo he has, That's all I ever cared about. I mean, I doodled in math and science class, That's all I ever really did. That's what I was really good at. And, I think he takes his work a little bit more serious than a lot of people that I know that actually tattoo or even the shops around here, he's a great artist. I mean, just not tattoo. I mean, seeing some of his paintings and his artwork, I mean, it's not hard to tell. I think he's the best person that's ever tattooed me, That's what'so cool about Jason is because realistically, he is such a real, can I say motherfucker? Because he is such a real motherfucker. And that's why I really needed someone to reevaluate my direction because to me, tattoos are really all about trying to identify yourself and it's almost, I guess, what I'll consider a creative expression of acceptance, of acceptance of who you are as a person and trying to identify yourself as a person. I mean, I don't get it to be cool. I don't get it because other people have it per se, but I get it because I do have a story and there's certain people that I want to know my story. It can be all kind of thing for a lot of people, I think. As far as myself, it's an experience, it's kind of a rite of passage. Music I think you need a lot of patience. A lot of patience, you need artistic skills, you need to enjoy, you need to It's a way of life, . . It's not a joke, it's not like, And when you're done and it looks exactly . . It's a one-shot. Music It's the best feeling when somebody, There's no other job I ever wanted to do. Music
