Breakin the Law - CHI Quals (Apr 13) : Man o' God put it down after a long break on the Chicago BBoy scene.  The venue was a church in Woodlawn and some of the best BBoys and BGirls from the area showed up.  In the end Evol and Moks, the favorites, took home the crown.  It was a great showing for Ram who lost in the finals and is getting stronger and stronger as the years go by.  Props to Eren Boogie for holding it down as the lone BGirl.  This time around, she's adding more power to the repertoire , so watch out BGirls (and BBoys) - her already strong skillset is getting stronger.  BBoy PNut did his thing winning a few rounds before exhaustion finally caught up with him.  He battled solo in a 2v2 competition - which meant he was putting in 4 rounds with each battle.  

I missed the BTL in Madison, but props to Man o' God for a great event.  Enjoy.  (PS Full set of unedited pix on the FB page)

Tattoo Arts Fest Entertainment (NSFW) (Mar 13) : Chicago Tattoo Arts 2013 was at the Crown Plaza again.  This time, the entertainment was all in the ballroom.  Playing around with some new gear made it really tricky to shoot.  In any case, here are my favorites from the evening.  Four favorites first, then in this order:  Penguin Boy, Rigor Mortis Revue, Body Suspension, Olde City Sideshow, and the Show Devils (Serana Rose).

This year, I got to see some new performers.  Penguin Boy was certainly unique.  I didn't get a chance to talk with him, but I did see him inking up a few people at the booth.  Maybe next time, I'll see if he's up for a conversation and his own gallery.  His act was a good carney act and he just did his thing without much fanfare.  The uniqueness of his condition was not something he spent much time talking about, although a good bio online would be nice.  Then again, I guess it is none of my business.   Rigor Mortis Revue was also a new act for me and I didn't know what to expect based on what I saw online.  Time was short so they basically did their thing quickly.  "What's their thing?"  We, the photos will show more than I'll write.

The Suspension didn't include Ms. Crash this year, but did include some suspensions I hadn't seen before - including a knee suspension.  Stitch was the "wild one" this year and she was crazy up there.  Giving her boyfriend a lift was pretty intense.  I didn't get many pix of Olde City, since I had great pix from last year.  As for Show Devils, they were such a rush that I didn't get much of them either.  I actually got great shows last year, and this year's were not good enough to make the cut (except for a few of Ms. Serana Rose).  I couldn't believe I didn't get any good ones of the Enigma (at least none that I liked).

If you performed, let me know.  I have a whole 'nother gallery of unedited pix.

Enjoy.
