Hori Smoku screening
Posted by Kevin on September 11th, 2009
If you happen to be in the San Francisco area on Saturday night, you definitely need to clear your schedule to check out the free Hori Smoku Sailer Jerry documentary. The Roxie Theater will be hosting the event, with the doors opening at 7pm, and the screening starting at 8pm. A short Q&A will take place prior with the director, Erich Weiss. RSVP is required, and they stress to be there early, as seating is limited. Oh, and the event is 21+ (sorry kids.) An after party is being held at Blondie’s, which will feature a live band and plenty of Sailor Jerry’s rum.
If you haven’t seen the preview for this, I urge to take a second and watch below. I’ve watched all of the clips over and over again, and I can’t wait to see it. I’ve also determined that I really want to have a conversation with Philadelphia Eddie Funk. Can anyone make this happen?
Everyone I know that’s seen the documentary, has enjoyed it. I know it’s been shown at a handful of tattoo conventions, but I haven’t been lucky enough to catch it yet.
If you can’t make the event, and haven’t seen it yet, you’ll just have to wait. It comes out on October 13th, and you can pre-order it now.

A friend of mine got a tattoo when he first joined the navy 40some years ago. He wanted to get it relined after he retired but no one will touch it. Seems that it was done by Crazy Eddie Funk.
John, if there is any way you could get a picture of that tattoo, I’d love to see it!
We only see each other every couple of years but I will see if he can email me one.
