  Great Atmosphere here.  Everyone is really nice.  John is a great dude, laid back, down to earth, and seems to care. The reason for the low rating is as follows.  I had an appointment with John a couple months away due to my work schedule.  Well my job gave me 2 days off and a 10 day notice.  I went in to see if I could get done earlier and Henry was there. He was great and I decided to book with Henry for today since John had no availabilities for my half sleeve.  
  
  Come today.  I was nervous as this was my first tattoo in almost 10 years.  So because these guys were so great, I went and purchased a dozen donuts to bring in from a local bakery for everyone.  Everything was great, arrived at Noon like my appointment was.  This is when the waiting began.  I waited from 12 until about 1250 when Henry arrived back.  
  
  Henry finally greets me at about 110pm and says that he has some personal issue and isnt in the frame of mind to do any work.  Totally respectable but I have been mentally preparing and was ready to go, a phone call would of been nice.  So he tells me to hang on, and he starts drawing my half sleeve up.  I went up to see how it was going and asked if he could make one of my tattoos a little smaller.  He then just turns and tells me he just isnt into it today and he is sorry.  Once again, that is his right and I prefer him to be honest as a tattoo is permanent.  So thank you for that.  I asked for a refund for my deposit and went down to Chicago as there was an artist who had a cancellation.  
  
  So while I am not happy given the wasted 20 bucks in donuts, 10 bucks in gas, and 2 hours of my time, I got what I wanted in the end at another studio.  No hard feelings here, I am sure these guys are good at what they do, I have seen their work first hand.  Just didnt appreciate the way things went down.  Thanks
