No longer using 515-991-8180
After close to 12 years, I will no longer be using the 515-991-8180 number. Some of you may already know that for the past 3 years I've been carrying 2 phones and there was a number of reasons for this. Since google voice has entered my life, I'm using the phone less and less. If you need to get a hold of me call 515-966-4814.

Paul Gray left us yesterday.
I and the Axiom lost a great friend and supporter of 16 years yesterday. There is no way to express the impact Paul had on my life as a friend, business partner, band mate and general partner in crime. Paul was one of the reasons that often when I felt it was time to pack it in, I kept promoting shows or kept on piercing. He was the kind of guy that would give you the shirt off his back if he thought you needed it even when he had nothing. He will greatly be missed.
Paul came into my life when I was first started piercing at Creative Images back in 94. In fact he was the first lip piercing I did in Des Moines. When immediately bounded on our mutual interest in L.A. punk rock. I remember being bummed cause he was moving back to L.A. However we did hang out a few times before he left at 2nd Ave Foundry. I really didn't think I'd ever see him again and then he turned up the night the Foundry closed it's doors. At the time, I didn't know that he had moved back to start Slipknot.
Back from vacation
After a wonderful trip to Seattle, I'm back in the Studio today May 19th from 3 to 9 and will be back to normal hours until July.
Sorry about not being in yesterday but thanks to American Airlines I didn't make it back to Des Moines till noon with no sleep.
Closed May 13th through the 15th
Next week I'll only piercing Tuesday May 11th and Wednesday May 12th. I'm going to be out of town but will be back to my normal hours on Tuesday May 18th.
