I have known James for over a Quarter of a century. I have followed him from the old days back when…read morehe and Black had the shop across from the Mall, To behind Lowery's Leather, To MacAurther besides Walmart, to the Old Plaza Mall, to His Current location. There is something to be said about the atmosphere, the Brotherhood, the attention to detail, the amazing conversations, the history and the knowledge of the man himself. Awesome Ink and Ogre and Emily and the family have been a core to my existence since I was not even old enough to be tattooed. I love My Ink, my piercings, my history with the shop and the artist. My mother, my sister, my brother, my godmother, my son, my best friend, all have bled in that mans hands and would again in an instant.
You will never find a better place to just come and get some quality ink with a more knowledgeable and amazingly funny and stand up man in a more relaxed and beautiful place.
Look I am a little biased. I like quality, I like value, I love a man of character and intelligence that stands by his word.
I have watched James Tate literally bleed for his passion. He gave me my first addiction, and I have never looked back.
If you don't stop, if you don't get inked, if you don't get piercings, if you don't decorate the temple is it even worth living ?
Do yourself a favor. Get to know Ogre now. Get some ink, have some great convos, and prepare to laugh and have the best times of your life.
Oh and welcome to your new addition
