So, You're Kinda a Big Deal...

Edmonton Tattoo Convention


Listen Later

We took the Podcast on the road! Shawn and I took the circus to Edmonton for The Edmonton Tattoo Convention that was held April 21-23.  Great turn out of hard working artists.  Many artists were interviewed. The talent at the show was great! Steve Peace put on another successful show and by all accounts everyone was busy the whole weekend. Things are popping off in Edmonton! This is a tattoocentric city, put it on your list of conventions to attend. Champion Tattoo in Sherwood Park was gracious enough to host me.  Check them out on the IG at @championtattoo.
