It’s been a while since I saw a shop put together a promotion that truly rewards their loyal customers for their shop patronage. For the entire month of June, Roaring Ink is giving you the opportunity to win gift cards to the shop for answering Sailor Jerry trivia questions.
If you’re Tallahassee, FL I suggest you scoot on over and give it a shot. Saving yourself $50-$150 on your next appointment might not cover the whole bill, but it certainly wouldn’t hurt.
If Sailor Jerry were still alive, today would be his 99th birthday. If you haven’t seen Hori Smoku, you’re missing out. Order it tonight to help celebrate Old Ironside’s birthday.
Below is a clip of Phildelphia Eddie out-take from the Hori Smoku movie. Yes, I’ve posted this before – but it’s still awesome.
“That fuckin’ Sailor Jerry…”
Sharon, A.K.A. Ms. February, posted an outtake from the 2010 Sailor Jerry Calendar. Sorry about the poor picture quality, but I had to post it. I don’t know what it is, there’s just something about that homely tan bikini, especially when you see it on a real woman.
Below the picture is a new commercial from the Sailor Jerry brand. It looks like some video of the calendar shoot is edited in there as well . . . .

I noticed a typo today when I was searching the site. The Hori Smoku screening is actually TUESDAY night, not Saturday night like I originally wrote. Oops!
If anyone does attend, we’d love to see some pictures and get a full report!
Here are the details again:
Tuesday, September 15th
Doors at 7pm, screening starts at 8pm sharp
(Arrive early, space is limited)
The Roxie Theater
3117 16th St., San Francisco
Remember, the event is 21+ and you need to RSVP here.
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
