I had the pleasure of recently attending the launch night for the new tattoo inspired Ink Bar in Liverpool, and I was pretty stoked with what I saw. First of all, Tattoo inspired you say, what does that exactly entail? Well it was visual treat of inked beauty on the walls with spotlight lit artwork in a bright modern venue. Banishing the dark dingy stigma of both tattoo parlours and night clubs. On the night there were also live tattooists inking keen folk, and apparently all the bar people have all been decorated too. While I was in a drunken splendour I was pleased to catch two awesome live bands too – The fantastic Gentleman’s Pistols (Fans of 70′s vintage rock / Wolfmother” will be pleased”) and the ever crazy ready pschobilly band Blue Demon. It was a bonny old evening and I now think every city should have an Ink bar!
