My dad dated his daughter, he told my dad who at the time worked at albertons to get a real job and got him a job at that machine shop. My dad worked there for like 23 years lol
I got my very first tattoo from Rick back in '86...still looks beautiful. Rick liked the HD sweatshirt my boyfriend had so when we got back to Vegas we sent him one. : )
I met Rick in '73, he was a Welder where I was working. I was 19, and I told him I was building a Panhead. He introduced me to Jimmy Lunceford... He did a Dragon Tat for me in '83 @ Grimms, and it still looks damn good!
