2nd Annual Alamo Tattoo Convention

July 7 - 9, 2006

San Antonio, TX

After returning home from summerfest, I took a trip down to San Antonio for the Alamo Tattoo Convention. They had contacted me eariler in the year but I was unable to confirm my availability for the dates at the time, and so they booked my good friend Tyler Fyre's Lucky Devils show. Since it worked out that I would be home, I elected to take the one hour drive down I-35 each day and do guest spots with Tyler and the rest of the cast.

   

Traveling with Tyler were Magic Brian and his girlfriend dubbed Magic Amy and Jen aka Peaches. He had also brought along his Horrors of Drug Abuse baby show as an added attraction. We did a couple of shows each day and spent the rest of the time drinking Lone Stars in the dressing room. The sets varied but I tended to do ear lifts and either the hook or the corkscrew for my cameos. I would drive back home after the last show each night. On Saturday, Meghan joined me for the trip.

 
 

Being that it was a tattoo convention, someone had to get tattooed and that someone was Tyler. On Sunday after the last show he got a fantastic jakelope tattoo. Sunday was also the day that I got a visit from my old Hartiwkc College buddy Mike Coniaris who was in town working for Habitat for Humanity.
