wait list for xam is insane. But while you're at the family business if you cant get xam i'd go for steve vinall. Got some work from him that im super happy with and his wait isn't that long.
Pretty sure eckle is out in copenhagen at conspiracy ink. Don't even try and get an appointment there. Although if you want some crazy satanic shit Uncle Allan is looking for volunteers to get some tattoos he wants done in march. Check his blog.
pretty sure its not hooper. I remember seeing that on someones blog I think they mostly did traditional stuff. Could be wrong though. On another note just got some time with cripwell.
