Somany times in fact that evenI began to doubt the name ofour own magazine. Perhaps Ishould have corrected her butI wanted to see how far the liewould go and exactly how bigthe hole could get before shefell in. There was even a pointat which I mentioned thecorrect name of the magazinebut it fell on deaf ears becausein the very next breath, thereit was again. “Deep Skin”.Swearing blind that they werethe purveyor of one of onlythree of these things in thecountry, when I could name atleast twelve without thinkingabout it, was the last straw.I let her carry on digginga hole because I foundit amusing to do so - itreminded me of the time Imade up a band that didn’texist to A: impress a girl (notvery successful) and B: to seeif I could get into the papers(shockingly successful) andsome months later, sure asI also guess, if the personyou’re telling all of this tois kind of heart and hasn’tbeen up all night with a dogwho is afraid of fireworks,you might get a differentanswer, but the fact remains:in some businesses, youcan’t simply blag your way inbecause you’ll be found out.You’ll be found out if youtell the world you’re a multi-award winning artist andyou’re not. You’ll be foundout if you’re hunting for anapprenticeship and announcethat you draw every nightbut there are only six itemsin your portfolio. Tattooingis an art form in which it’sextremely hard to hide anyshort-comings you might have.And that my dearfriends, is exactly whatmakes everything aboutit so damn great.ow do I beginto tell this storywithout beingmean to the personinvolved? Maybe I can’t.Maybe I shouldn’t care.Let’s see how much I cannavigate of it before I needto drop the curtain.A few weeks back, I gota phone call from a publicrelations consultant who hadbeen employed to promotea certain product that wastattoo related - I’ll just leave itright there at the moment andsee how we get along with it.There was much talkabout giving away lots of‘things’ associated with thisproduct in exchange forsome news coverage in themagazine. That’s not reallyhow things work around here- news is news is news andthere’s no bartering systemattached, but I’m always earswide open if I think there’ssomething in it for you guys.It was kind of going well forher up until the point that shecalled the magazine “DeepSkin” and told me - more thanonce - how she had read itfor years. More than likely, Ifrowned at the first mentionof this new magazine and letit roll, but by the end of the(very one sided) conversationabout exactly how great theSHE HAD MENTIONED “DEEP SKIN”MANY, MANY TIMES. SO MANY TIMES INFACT THAT EVEN I BEGAN TO DOUBTTHE NAME OF OUR OWN MAGAZINEI don’t know about deep, buta thick skin is somethingyou definitely develop fastworking around here.There came a point inthis conversation where Iquestioned why she wanted togive so much away and maybeshe should go back and askthe client if that’s really whatthe company wanted to do.No - it would be fine - theclient had left the wholepromotional idea up to herand they would be fine with it.The more she talked, the moreinformation started to surfacethat was just plain wrong.eggs is eggs, a guy I met in abar told me that he had beenat our first gig - and even wentto the extent of telling methe things I had said. Whichwas weird. Really it was.Anyway, I didn’t hearfrom her again after that.Maybe somebody correctedher and she was too red-faced to call me back. Thereshould probably be a pointto this story but I can’tthink what it might be.I guess sometimes peoplewant to be on the inside ofsomething so badly, they willsay anything to get there and@mrsionsmithSkin Deep MagazineIssue 245THE NEEDLE HAS LANDEDEDITORIAL03THE USUALSUSPECTS08SLEEVE NOTES18BEHIND CLOSED DOORS93CLASSIFIEDS95THE TIME MACHINE97CRAIGY LEE: SOAPBOX98AN EYE IS UPON YOUWClothing’s 2014 FlashCollection…JOHNNY DOMUSFrom graffiti andstreet art to photorealism and tarot -the work of JohnnyDomus Mesquitahas many differentfacets… all of thembeautiful.P2834getting their tattoosout to help otherpeople out?
