2/1-2/8/2010 So another new adventure down this one has led me to my first over seas adventure. Of course I made this
trip by myself an actually im glad i did. the good thing about travelin alone i dont have to entertain noone. after my
12hr day of flyin i land in vienna austria realizin i had no damn clue to where my hotel was an better yet how to even
get to downtown vienna from the airport. im in foreign country which yes people do speak english but its pretty broken.
an as most of my friend know i dont care about shit so i knew i would find my way some way or another.
i get off the plane grab my bags and spotted a sign that says “cat fastest
way to downtown” (obviously in small letters under the german way of sayin this)
so i manage to get to the cat which was a faster version than the subway. got off manage to get a cab an
just told him to take me to the marriot downtown. an low an behold it was the marriot that im stayin at. if i was with
anyone else they would been more an likely upset frustrated or just a complete wacko. but i dont give a shit and i def dont now
cause im on fuckin vacation. so my first two days in vienna austria i wandered around the city with my tour guide
maureen van mortis. first went to some crazy ass creepy churches, went to some cool ass museums. and went around to local tattoo shops
to try an get a guest spot at. On thurs 2/4 i flew to hamburg germany
this city i couldnt manage so well through. i went out for lunch got lost an just decided to cab it back instead of findin
my way back so on top of it all it was only 8euros away from my hotel which means i was fairly close for bein lost for 3hrs.
that night made it out to a local bar for some drinks. the followin
day wandered around again for breakfast got lost findin the place but this time manage to get back to the hotel at the least.
the rest of the day i spent goin around to all the tattoo shops. I manage to find a really cool shop with good artist an
cool ass people called JungBluth Tattoo. That I will be tattooing at for two weeks each month for 3 months straight startin
in july. a huge thanks to cristina for drivin me around an findin out about all these tattoo shops. 2/6 i headed back to
to vienna, austria. i had two days left here in vienna so decided to do some fun shit that i never do. i like bein a lil kid
an actin like a kid. so i went to the ice skatin rink an did some skatin around. it was super cool they actually had like
an ice skatin rink. apparently my lazy ass is  out of shape cause i went around for like 20 mins an my legs were literally
on fire. so did another 20 or so minute run an then called it quits. that night went to a metal show which was a def high
light of it all. the headliner band was called full contact which i thought was the hardcore band from the state apparently
theres another band called full contact. had some good bier listened to some good tunes an called it an early night
cause the followin day i was gettin up early to head to slovakia. so sunday my last day in europe thats what i did. i headed
over to slovakia to run around. saw this cool ass castle ate some really good ass food an left cause it was gettin to cold
for me to stick around. so for goin to europe by myself things worked out fairly well. an i will b back in a couple of
months to try my luck around europe once again.again big thanks to maureen who trained it n hr in to take me out in the city
an then trained it n hour back every night. cristina who drove me around to all the shops an then i ended up flakin on when
i passed out when she was suppose to be pickin me up to take me out to the bars n clubs. and of course like alaways to my
girl Ashley who always makes sure my hotels are booked for me.Now back to New Orleans I go for this Mardi Gras / Super Bowl
partyin that is to b had.

Jan 2010 – Ok I was told to do something different with my website caues I been keeping a journal for the past 7 months who a good friend suggested me to do since I travel so much an see an do so much. So I been keepin that but hell no one is able to read the fucking thing. So while I was here in Austria as in here its 2/3/2010 to post a blog about each month. So thats what Im goin to start doin this year so all my friends clients or hell if I have fans fans to. I apologize ahead of time for my writing i realize when I throw things together it doesnt always make sense

1/1/2010So I want to start off with New Years Eve 2009. I spent New Years eve 2009 in Los Angeles after a long trip back that same day from my bday bash down in San Felipe, Mx.  Me and one of my closest friends Rocky got up and started to get the day together we decided we were goin to just party it up at the house since the limo our other friend mr johnny lag on getting. So instead of worrying about who is sober enough to dry and or hotel situation we decided on the house. Grab a keg a nice $120 bottle of George E Staggs 141 proof whiskey and invited friends over an do it with just friends. Needless to say we had a great turn out and great company of people to share the new year with. The whiskey that was apparently won some whiskey contest the past 5yrs in the row in kentucky was absolutely horrible to drink. Should of known better since it did say 141 an just like 151 rum yeah tasted like hell fire. New Years Day we did a lot of cleanin up I mean alot we had party poppers and other confetti throwin things an with booze bein spilt on the hardwood floors yeah that shit was a bitch to clean up. So I actually missed out on goin to the rose bowl cause of cleanin up our mess, but didnt ruinin my game I was about to see at the staple center that night.  Allana a girl from texas was in town and me an her went down to the Staple Center to see the Lakers play the Sacramento Kings. I was pissed all game long cause i never been to a Lakers game where I actually saw them loose to anyone and on top of it we paid $250 a ticket but with the 4th period rounding out Kobe Bryant brought the lakers back  to only 2 pts for the last 2mins of the game and just like total Kobe Fashion he made the game winnin shot with 2.4 secs left in the game and my day couldnt of been better im actually glad i missed the rose bowl blowout for this game.  That night we partied it up at my boy Codys house cause he was soon to leave for school out in Iowa. I stayed in Cali till the 10th an pretty much just crammed in a bunch of tattooing nothing to excited really went down but on the 9th Rocky, Fat Nick, and I all went down to Anaheim for the season opener of Supercross.  Did a little tailgatin in the parkin lot an then finally got into the Anaheim Angels baseball stadium to see of course James “Bubba” Stewart win another damn race and did some more partyin for my last night in town at the house with the boys.

1/10/2010 I flew into Phoenix, Az to try an not feel like a dick and do it just for business but met up with my old boss Robert from the last shop i worked  for in Hollywood his X shes been bugging me to get out there an tattoo her an her new bf I really wasent expectin much but she mention if for some reason I wouldnt tattoo anyone a day that she would pay for my hotel that night. So I figure what is there to loose.   So to my surprise I was actually really busy and did a lot of fun lil pieces that I was super happy about.

1/15/2010 Flew into Baltimore, Md to catch the Adreanline Crew 4 – Verdict Guilty primiere on the 16th. So fri the 15th when I got into town I landed met up with my boy Derrick who picked me up from the airport started tattooin up his back piece. Then he dropped me off at my other boy Dereks house to make a night out in town in Federal Hill. Sat the 16th my boy Adam from PA picked me up at Dereks house and off to Washington, Dc we went to make for a wild night in Dc.  As soon as we got there I ended up tattooing my boy Mike Jones from conneticut in the hotel. After I finished up tattooing him  we all gathered up the gang an headed off to Club Fur for the primiere.  Adam and I stayed around for the primiere an then went back to the hotel to booze there before goin back to the club since the primiere was at 9pm. At midnight we rolled back to the club and a good friend of mine Megan hooked Adam and I up with table service so with a bottle of Jack Daniels and 3 buckets of beer between just the two of us the night went black and Adam ended up pukin when doin a shot of jack at the table. We headed back to the hotel at 4 in the morning an I had 3 friends have 3 different hotel rooms but for some reason my dumb drunk ass needed one and seemed to buy one even though I woke up in a suite all by myself not one other person was in the room.  So day 2 in DC the 17th we went to the last hour or so of the IMS tour cleaned up the booth and headed back to the hotel but on our way over to the hotel steve decided to take the table we had merch on that he would put the table in the middle of the street  durin DC traffic an lay on it, know one had balls enough to hit him nor could anyone go around so he just laid there. We picked it up before cops came an made it to the hotel for free booze 5-8 and watch the god damn San Diego Chargers loose.  We then went to McFaddens in Dc to meet up with a good friend that I met in lousiville, ky Matt Taylor who opened the McFaddens in Phoenix and is now workin at the bar in Dc.  Got a couple of drinks an rolled out cause we were all a bit to drunk an didnt want to make a scene in his work cause when its Kenny, Steve, and Me shit seems to get a lil to wild.  So we went back to the hotel kenny for some reason passed out and Steve and I rolled back out to china town till i got the call that Matt was done with workin an headin to these other bars. We met up with Matt an his friends and partied it up till I dont know when.

1/18 Made it BWI airport and now off to Las Vegas.  This was goin to be a chill week for me in Vegas cause I had my trip to Europe comin up in 2 weeks.   So nothin really happened this week but met a super cool chick Crystalina and drank at PTS with my boy Ryan and Andy.

1/25 I flew into Louisville, Ky to meet up with a good friend Keith who I met at the McFaddens in Vegas and his roommate Justus who opens McFaddens up everywhere in the states.  Keith ended up moving back to his home town of Louisville about 2yrs ago now and I made this trip cause on the 29th was Justus 23rd bday.  I ended up missin my flight on the 25th so got into louisville a bit late. I played some Dj Hero with his roommates an called it an early night. The next couple of days consisted of wakin up at 2pm tattooing till 10-11pm and partying it up till 4 am. The first night i guess we all got blacked out drunk an apparently I gripped some girl up by her throat and she screamed murder and just like every stupid girl I guess she still wanted to go back to my boys house. But they took me around town a couple of nights an met a lot of good people that want to get some work done from me when I get back in May for the Kentucky Derby.

1/30 I made my way to New Orleans, La where I was going to be leavin from to go to Europe and then come back for Mardi Gras.  So that sat the 30th my good friend matt who lives there picked me up from the airport headed back to his house to drop off my shit an pick up his gf and then downtown we went.  It was my idea to roll downtown cause I wanted to see this band Throwdown that Im a huge fan of but when we got there come to find out they pulled out of the tour but with gettin 3 tickets for 10 bucks we went into the show anyone and a band that replaced Throwdown – God Forbid was playin who I do enjoy so the show wasent a total bust.  We called it an early night and I when we finally got back to the house I had hate text msg galore for not havin either phone on me all night long. The next day we just woke up and I tattooed my boy Matt all damn night did some wash an got ready for my first trip to Europe tomorrow.
