| - So a few weeks back some friends and I grabbed a drink at New Amsterdam, right next door to Rogue Tattoos. On our way out, we stopped to admire some of their signage and ran into Travis, one of the artists. We complimented him on his shop, chatted a bit, and went on our way.
I'd been planning a tattoo for a long while and this weekend found myself with the time and money. I figured Travis was a nice enough guy, the shop seemed clean, and the work posted on their website looked good.
Now these were my first tattoos, so I don't have a lot of basis of comparison, but I'm extremely happy with my tattoos and the whole experience. The only complaint that I have is that they were running behind schedule and I ended up waiting over an hour past my appointment to get started. But once I was in the chair, I was done in less than half an hour. Besides, their waiting area is comfortable with original art on the walls, a couch, tv, and fairly large DVD collection.
For two small-ish tattoos in solid black I paid $50. Again I'm no expert, but from what I understand that's a pretty good deal. Seems to me that first-rate work at a good price, in a nice shop (lots of Romero memorabilia), done by friendly dudes is worth the extra hour wait and then some. My wife and I have already starting talking about getting some more work done and if we do, we'll definitely be back.
