One of my closest friends, Devon Blood, was shot two nights ago in Oakland, during an attempted robbery at his girlfriends' house. Devon is one of the straight-up nicest people I have ever known, he's a great tattooer, and loves his friends and family to no end. He's in a coma at an Oakland hospital, and underwent surgery yesterday to relieve pressure in his brain....

My thoughts are with you & Taye! I hope Devon has a 100% recovery!I'm moving shops.. I'll be joining Theo Mindell and his crew at Spider Murphy's in San Rafael. The shop's new address (as of next week) will be 1006 Lincoln @ 4th St. The new 1500 sq. ft. shop is going to be incredible, you have to see it to believe it. I'll miss my friends at Sacred, but I'll still be living down the street...

It's a looney bin at those shows, but the good outweighs the bad, and I still like doing the convention thing. Thank you so much to those who came by and said hello, and those who got...

hi!
Time's winding down quickly for the big move to Oz... We're looking at about three months now until I don't get to drive around the ghetto and throw dirtbags out of the shop.... people in Australia have manners, the opposite of Oakland. I'm looking forward to that, as much as I'll miss friends and family here.
There are some new suicidegirls who had their photos...
