The biggest tattoo show on earth

Apparently this is what the worlds biggest tattoo show looks like?
Inked Magazine is apparently giving away tickets to the Las Vegas tattoo show AKA “The biggest tattoo show on earth.” The show takes place October 2nd, 3rd, and 4th. Tickets to a tattoo convention aren’t normally that big of a deal, right? At $100 for a weekend pass, it would be asinine to turn these down if you plan on going. Now, in order to get these “free” tickets you have to provide your name, address, phone number, and e-mail when you fill out the form. I’m sure on top of the free tickets, all of your personal information will be thoroughly solicited, but we’ll talk about that in a minute.
Now let’s talk about the show a little bit. Here’s a couple quick facts you should probably be aware of:
- The sponsors include Inked Nation, Urban Ink, Cam Supply, House of Blues, Mandalay Bay, Intenze Productions, and Inked Magazine. Hey, remember when you gave them all of that personal information? Enjoy!
Tommy Lee, Suge, and ?
- DJ Steve Aoki, Tommy Lee & DJ Aero, and DJ Scotty Boy will all be performing live. Here’s a free preview of Tommy Lee & DJ Aero.
- They claim to be giving over $100,000 in prizes for the tattoo competitions. I wonder how many subscriptions of Urban Ink and Inked Magazine that is?
- They strictly refer to this as a tattoo show, but the website shows just as much piercing, scarification, suspension, and body modification. I’m not saying that as if it’s a bad thing the body modification is there, but I would think they would advertise it.
Did I mention the Harley Bike Fest is going on in Vegas the same weekend? Oh, and AC/DC is playing the MGM that Saturday night too.
What a fucking mess. I bet this will be an unimaginable weekend, but isn’t every weekend in Vegas?
