Nice shirts. Perhaps I'll order some in the distant future.

At this time I prefer Toxicturtle's shirts noteably the CGEB: F.F.F. and the B.B. ones. Check out her site when you have a chance.

I am going to be in Miami in March '07 and I want to get a tattoo which contains hebrew text. I am under the impression that getting together with Ami is basically impossible. Are there other artists in the shop that can do hebrew text? This tattoo is a gift from my husband for my 40th birthday so I want the best, please help. Thanks!

If the picture isn't in Darren's gallery on this site, then I'm afraid you won't be able to find the picture.

Your best bet is to call the shop and talk to someone there. The phone number is a few posts up.

I know this is the same old same old question that has been asked many times.
Is this really a fully functional shop, that if I go down there I can go in a hopefully see some of the guys & girl and maybe if I'm a lucky girl in a million, maybe get one of the guys to give me my first ever tattoo.
Just the UK is a long way to come, to find thats it's just a film set Roll Eyes
I would love more than anything for Ami to be my artist in question, and if he isn't then I don't get one, I have said no Ami no tattoo.
$$$ is no object here, and am willing to pay top money.
So is this a no hoper or is there more chance of winning the lottery Smile

It is a functional shop, and there are several other artists that work there beside those seen on TV. From what I understand (could be wrong), you need to apply with TLC to get a tattoo done with one of the artists while they are filming. When they are done filming for the season, Garver and Kat go back to True Tattoo in L.A. If you want a tattoo from Ami after filming is over, I would recommend calling the shop to ask them how you could get on his waiting list (I'm assuming he has one).

Thank you fiesty_redhead, for that information. That sounds reassuring. I'm totally not worried about being on TV, so thats fine with me. Now picking up the phone and calling Roll Eyes thats a different matter. Its ashame you cannot e-mail the shop. Well I will see how I go.
Has anyone here managed to get down there and just walk in, and have got themselves tattooed??

And as for Ami's waiting list I dread to imagine how long that is, though it could be worth the wait.

No problem, warrick!

I'm assuming the reason they don't have email for the shop is that they would be bombarded with "Ami is too hawt!" emails. Wink

I'm pretty sure that at least a person or two who post on this board (or used to) have walked in to get work. However, the work was done by one of the resident artists, not the "stars." Hopefully someone who can help you out more will chime in. Good luck!

Oh, and as far as waiting lists go, I have heard rumors that Garver's is up to a year and a half. Ami's is probably pretty comparable.
