Here’s your weekly dose of Iron Tiger stuff. Can’t complain about this past week. Gabe filled some of the time in between his appointments by tattooing some of us shop guys. He started a cover up on Randy’s shoulder, did a severed head on Felix’s cousin Mike and star and doted my arm to complete my sleeve. Dan spent the weekend tattooing at Evermore Gallery in Edwardsville, IL. Morgan tattooed at Trader Bobs for a couple days. Colin fixed/covered up a dragon on his brother’s shoulder. We had alot of fun hanging out with Mike for the last couple weeks but he had to head back to Vegas today. Come see us again soon man.
In case you didn’t see last week’s update, Gabe will be tattooing at Spotlight Tattoo in LA on October 23-24 and Showroom tattoo in Las Vegas on October 28-November 4. Also Gabe, Lars and Dan will be tattooing at the St. Louis Old School Tattoo Expo November 8-10.
For those of you who aren’t too familiar with our shop, we do walk-in’s all day, everyday. So give us a call at 573.499.1200 or just walk in and we’ll get you laced up. We also have gift cards available for that friend or family member that hasn’t stopped talking about the tattoo/piercing they’ve been wanting for months now. Make it happen for ’em.

Another week down here at Iron Tiger. As usual, Gabe stayed busy most of the week with appointments. He made some more progress on our dude Max’s sleeve and started a rad new leg piece on him. I’ll have pics of that one for you soon. Everyone else stayed busy with a mix of appointments, walk-ins and paintings. Dan finished up a new sheet of flash this week. Cody and Colin both spent a couple days tattooing out at Iron Age. We closed the shop early on Sunday so everyone could celebrate our friends Ryan and Shelly Bowman’s wedding. A big congratulations to those two. Patience from Trader Bobs came out for another visit this weekend and so did our friend Jon Osiris from Seattle.

Hey thanks for coming back to check out this week’s post. We had alot of fun this week. Our friends Patience from Trader Bobs and Casey came out again to cover shifts for Moe and Colin while they were out of town over the weekend. Everyone seemed to pass the time between customers by tattooing each other. There’s a pretty priceless picture of Morgan doing a Butthead tattoo on our friend Wally. Lars had a college kid job shadowing him all day Friday for some paper he was writing. He ended up getting a tattoo from Lars off of one of his old acetate stencils. He’s been pumped on doing those lately. Gabe got to work some of his portrait magic on Saturday. Walk-ins kept everyone buys all week. Alot of cool painting got turned out as well.
For our Las Vegas friends, Gabe will be tattooing at Showroom Tattoo Parlour at the end of October. You can email him or leave your number for appointments. Keep checking the post for the exact dates he’ll be out there. Also, Lars will be tattooing at the St. Louis Old School Tattoo Expo November 8-10. He’s gonna be doing more tattoos from his acetate collection if you’re interested.

Thanks for checking out this week’s update. We had some people on the road a bit this week. Phil was tattooing at All Star in St. Louis and Moe was out at Freaks on Broadway in Kansas City. Casey Maddox came up to hang out and cover shifts over the weekend. It’s always good to have his help. Our dude Talley from the Martlet Tattoo Parlor in LA came and hung out with us over the weekend. Lars tattooed him using an old acetate stencil which I’d never seen done before. All together, just a super chill week. Cool people, no problems.
For those of you in STL that might be looking to get tattooed by Cody, he’s tattooing at Iron Age yesterday and today. Get at him.

Hey thanks for checking out this week’s update. Friday the 13th was so wild! It was the largest one we’ve ever done by far. We opened at noon to a line of about 20 people and they just kept coming all day. The plan had been to keep it going from noon to midnight but so many people came in and signed up that we were forced to stop taking tattoos at 7:30 just to get through the backlog. Despite how busy it was we still were able to have fun with it. It’s kind of a rare thing these days to see people so pumped to pick a design straight off a flash sheet. I got a good laugh out of listening to the tattooers argue over who’s sheet was getting the most play. Everyone worked their asses off and 12 hours (and almost 180 tattoos) later we closed up and went to Roxy’s to celebrate. A huge thanks to everyone who came out and participated. You guys made this thing a success for us and we really appreciate it. Keep your eyes on your calendars for the next Friday the 13th.
As for the rest of this past week, it was solid. The tattooers tattooed, the piercers pierced and the world kept turning. Here’s your pics for the week.

Yep, it’s Tuesday again. Thanks for checking out this week’s update. Gabe was on his appointment game most of the week but did actually manage to squeeze in a couple walk-in requests. He did a rad Disney doorknob on his girlfriend’s knee among other things. The rest of the crew stayed busy taking care of walk-in’s, doing appointments here and there and painting sheets for Friday the 13th.
So we’re running our Friday the 13th special this Friday and for those of you who didn’t see the Facebook post about the rules, here’s a recap for you. We will have sheets of flash painted specifically for the event. They will be displayed in our lobby the day of the event. There’s a sneak peek of one of the sheets posted below. The deal only applies to tattoos from those specific sheets. The designs from those sheets can not be altered or resized (other than having them flipped to fit the appropriate side of the body). Any design from those sheets will be $13 with a mandatory $7 tip so you’ll be spending no less than $20 total (even with the mandatory tip you’re still getting tattooed for $30 less than our shop minimum). These will all be done on a walk-in, first come-first serve basis. Our hours on Friday are Noon-Midnight so get here asap to beat the rush. This is a cool promo that we look forward to every year so come out and lets have fun with it!

Here’s your Tuesday post for the week. I’m gonna keep this one short and sweet. Gabe and Dan made it back from the Hell City convention on Tuesday. They got to do some cool tattoos and Dan won a new work station. Moe and Colin spent most of the week in St. Louis. Colin was working at Iron Age and Moe was at Trader Bobs all weekend. Casey was back up at the shop covering shifts again. Cody got some prints made of a painting he did. He’s selling them for a reasonable price so get at him if you’re interested. There’s a pic below. Everyone just sorta relaxed and did there own thing this week, it was pretty chill overall.
Oh ya, there was something I was suppose to mention about next Friday…
