The return of Adam Hays

You may have already heard (or read) that Electric Pick is coming back to Berlin on October* to tattoo, but we actually have a few more guests visiting the shop this fall.

First up is Adam Hays, who some of our Copenhagen clients have already had the pleasure of getting tattooed by.
And now our German clients have the chance too!
Adam will be with us from October 2nd till the 4th (both days included) and if you'd like to book an appointment with him, just send him an email: adamguyhays@gmail.com.

Scroll down to see some of his recent tattoos, and go to his blog and instagram to see even more!

*No, he doesn't get a post of his own, cause he's always booked up before he can even finish the sentence "i'll be tattooing in Europe", but do check his blog or write him if you wanna hear about possible extra dates or cancellations.

"Adam Hays, Adam Hays, Naked in our shop, Adam Hays"*

Damn, it's been a while since i've posted here, and the last time i did post something it just made you guys all sad, so i guess i should get to blogging some fun stuff, right?
We don't have time for a lot of blogging these days. Or fun stuff, for that matter! No, that last part is not true. It's just that black metal march and the black metal art show in Germany is taking up a lot of our time, and although they're both super fun projects, it'll be kind of nice to have them behind us.
The art show is next week, and we'll be driving to Germany with a bunch of paintings and a dog that always needs to pee, so i'll definitely be blogging about that!

So since we're basically at the shop all the friggin time, we're happy that our guest Adam has been booked for the better part of the week too, so we at least got to hang out at the shop. Oh, and there were some late dinners too.
On the days Adam didn't work, he got his back tattooed by Eckel. They started his epic backpiece Wednesday and continued it today, and it's looking pretty amazing already, but you'll just have to take my word for it... or find Adam and make him strip for you.

 A couple of the tattoos Adam did at the shop this week, taken from instagram:

Boar on Matthias

I think this is a character from some movie... Star-something...

Here's Adam having super lots of fun getting his butt tattooed today!

And just cause it's so awesome: the cake Allan's client Tom baked for us... it was as delicious as it was evil!

*Should be sung to the tune of "Baby Monkey", cause, well, that's what we did!

We're back!!

Hello dear blog readers!
We're back from Japan, enjoying our first day back at the shop.
Ok, so enjoying is kind of a big word, cause really, who enjoys being back from an awesome vacation? But at least we're having a nice mellow day, so it could be a lot worse.

As usual i have news, lots of news! Well, maybe not lots, but good news!
As you may already know, if you're the kind of person who likes to check our "News & Events" section from time to time, Adam Hays is coming back to work with us in just a few weeks, from the 12th till the 17th of march, and he still has a couple of spots available.
So, if you wanna get tattooed (and remember, fun stuff only, we want our guests to have a good time), just send an email with your ideas to adamguyhays@gmail.com, and he'll get back to you with a possible date.

Og på dansk: Adam Hays kommer tilbage og arbejder hos os fra den 12. til den 17. marts og han har stadig enkeltre ledige tider.
Så hvis du gerne vi tatoveres af ham (og hvorfor skulle du ikke ville det?) skal du sende en mail med dine ideer til adamguyhays@gmail.com.

Some of Adam's fine work:

What else?
Oh yeah, Uncle Allan's month of black metal madness is coming up, and as the work he'll be doing during that month is all for his upcoming book, there won't be much posted online. No, not even instagram. But it should be an interesting month nonetheless!
And in other related black metal news, Allan will have his first ever solo show, Faces of Black Metal, at the Lionheart Gallery in Germany. It runs from the 24th of march till the 13th of may and you can read more about it here.
We will be going there for the opening, so come by and say hi and buy some damn paintings or something!

I was sure i had other news, but i'm still completely 'lagged out (woke up at 6 again this morning...- NOT my usual style) so i don't remember.
But i'll post more when my brain gets back to normal.

Have a sweet week everyone!

A moose and his centaur friend

Here's a couple of sweet pieces Sarah did at the shop this week.
She did one on Saturday too, that i didn't get any pictures of, and one on me on Monday, that you can see if you click here.
It was a pleasure having her at the shop, as usual, and we hope it won't be her last guest spot of 2012 (don't worry, it totally won't)!

Fancy gentlemen... they're probably Lords or something...

If you're one of those people who check the travel and guests section regularly, you may have noticed that i've added some new Adam Hays dates to the March calendar, so if you don't wanna miss out, go send him an email right now.

Ps. Our other German bff, Chriss Dettmer, just stared a blog, and i think you should all go follow it.

No, seriously, he did, go see for yourselves!

So... you wanna get tattooed or what?

Like i mentioned in the last post, Adam Hays is here tattooing this week, and it looks like he's gonna stay around for a few more days, so there's still appointments to be had!

Send me an email, or come by the shop monday to talk to him in person, and we'll work something out.

Below are examples of the work he's been doing since he got here. 

Good stuff!

Og så på Dansk: 

Vore gæste tatovør, Adam Hays, har besluttet sig for at blive i København et par ekstra dage, og har derfor tid til at lave flere tatoveringer mens han er her.

Så hvis du er interesseret skal du sende os en mail, eller komme forbi butikken mandag med dine bedste idéer, så finder vi us af noget!

Scroll ned for at se eksempler på det fine arbejde han har lavet de sidste par dage.

 This is happening right now, so there'll be pictures of that on the blog some other time!

Adam Hays at Conspiracy Inc. next month

So, it looks like my last post here was a costume post of sorts, and actually this one was supposed to be one of those too (apparently we dress up a lot in the summer? I'll post those pictures real soon!) but as it turns out, i have more important news to share.

You see, next month we're having one of them guest artists at the shop, and i thought it was about time to tell you who, and to show you some of his work.
From August 18-20 (and possibly a day or two more, if his travel plans work out that way), super swell guy and fellow Star Wars geek, Adam Hays from Red Rocket Tattoo in New York will be working at our shop.
If you'd like to book with him, here's how to do it: send an email to conspiracyinctattoo@gmail.com with your ideas for the design and placement, possible budget and dates you are available. Remember that it must be custom, as always, and unless you're planning a trip to New York in the near future, it should be something that can be finished in one session.
After recieving your email, i'll get back to you with a possible date for the tattoo, and give you specifics about deposit and stuff.
So pretty much the usual.
Serious inquiries only, and i can't stress that enough.
It's bad enough when people cancel at the last minute with Allan or Eckel, but doing it to a traveling guest artist is completely unacceptable, so please think before booking.


DK: Fra den 18. til 20. August  kommer Adam Hays fra Red Rocket Tattoo i New York og arbejder i butikken.
Hvis du kunne tænke dig at blive tatoveret af ham skal du sende en mail med dine idéer til designet, samt placering til conspiracyinctattoo@gmail.com.
Som sædvanligt her i butikken tilbyder vi kun custom tatoveringer, og husk også på at tatoveringen skal kunne laves færdig på en session, med mindre du snart skal en tur til USA.
Når jeg har modtaget jeres mails vender jeg tilbage med et bud på en tid, og diverse detaljer ang. din mulige aftale.
Vær venlig kun at kontakte os hvis du er 100% sikker på at du vil tatoveres, og du har tænkt dig at overholde din aftale. Da dette guest spot er så kort som det er, vil det være et stort problem for vores gæst og os, for ikke at tale om at det ville være synd for folk der måske gerne ville tatoveres men ikke kunne få en tid, hvis der er nogen der booker en tid bare for at aflyse i sidste øjeblik, så kun seriøse henvendelser, tak.
Se flere eksempler på Adam's arbejde på hans hjemmeside eller i hans portfolie der snart skulle ankomme i butikken.
