In 2007 Paul was working on a half sleeve for me, an hour into the tattoo session Korn showed up just because their tour bus happened to be driving through New York City that day , a bunch of them had been tattooed by Paul on tour. It was pretty cool to take a break and have Korn come over and check out my tattoo. The 16 hours of watching Paul tattoo my arm was a great lesson in tattooing.
Paul did my sleeves, Paul is truly a artist, Paul did my tattoos upstairs in the shop close to time square. I would take the Fungwai bus from Boston to get them done. I had a lot of good times with Paul and good talks One of my goals in life was to get a Paul booth sleeve, and he gave me two. I will forever be grateful
Bro, I'm 50 and I remember distinctly Paul Booths innovative style, in the early inked magazines. He is way ahead of his time. Magazines were filled with, Paul Booth, Filip Leau, Marcus Pacheco etc. It was a great era in tattooing! I mostly painted graf but I studied these artists so intently for inspiration. Only just started watching this interview and I got so excited. I think Paul had last rites tattoo, anyways much love, yo from Australia
Paul, you aren't the only old timer out there. Some of us are still out here and not wanting to let the old ways go. I'm short of Paul's career by a handful of years. I believe I started when they lifted the ban in NYC. I was apprenticed under Steve Ferguson at the Ink Spot. I still charge for my apprenticeships and I've been bringing in a crew to teach them the old ways so there will be at least one more generation who wants to know the history and lineage, about machine building, needle making, and what should be in your tattoo ink. I'm investing in them and want them to be better than me. Yes I was on that stupid show but I'm also on the board of our trade organization and freaked over the whole idea of tattooing going corporate. So I'm afraid for my tatter tots that no matter how much of the old ways I instill in them that what was will be no more.
Some of the best work I have is by people that I was locked up with.. insane skills that have never been shown except for on my arms in many other people
Back in the 90’s I was always looking for Paul’s work in tattoo magazines. I was always blown away by every new piece I saw from him. Him and Tony Ciavarro got me into tattoos and still a fan of both of those guys.
I got tattooed by paul aroumd 3 years ago now. Have another session to finish it off. Can't wait..... absolute legend of a guy... an yes was a great experience to meet him and get tattooed by him.... 💯💪👍
I wanted to get on pauls list when I was 18 but didnt have the money. i just turned 40 and would still LOVE to get a piece by paul. hopefully hes still tattooing when i can be ready! ha
my brother told me to get tattooed by paul in the 90's. i was too young to understand but eventually I did early 2007/2008 and last rights was crazy following art fusion and seeing Hernandez and a handful of others man that place ruled. living in nyc i was like why the hell am i going to 30's but it ruled. ty paul and all that contributed to last right. big marker for me
Absolutely fantastic chat!! I could have listened for another 2 hours easy! Future guest wish list ; Flaks32G, Carlos Macias (Cryptic Tattoo) and Big Sleeps please.
Piggy back off my own statement,,,, I started in this industry in 2003 so I'm sure there had to be something around before that? I'm so curious who paul was talking about now lol
I would love to get tattooed by Paul I remember being a kid and seeing he’s work in magazines and just being enamored and wanting to learn how to do he’s style
i got U on my chest plate, both pecks. I'm Australian n was like ooooooh, this is art, not a outline from the past. Then I got a brief understanding of the preceager. I wanted Paul screaming at his og birth of this funky toothed screaming big ram hornd DEMON. mad artist, happy,it's not what I envisioned but I m not complaining. I'm not allowed in the U. S but I didn't have to question why I got it coz I newit was rite. Much respect Paul booth. U r U n that's what inspires Ur art ,U made a mark on the history of tattooing n EVIL EFN ART , PEACE
Thank you so much for this amazing video! Just a quick off-topic question: My OKX wallet holds some USDT, and I have the seed phrase. (alarm fetch churn bridge exercise tape speak race clerk couch crater letter). How should I go about transferring them to Binance?
I meet him once at L.A. me and my friend are having lunch and he asked me if the food was good , I say yes , love your work, I am a tattooer from Cuba and it as funny because a moment earlier I was taking pictures of him paparazzi style 😂. About the DVD , it was this guys ,that did a couple for some tattoo artist and they called The gnome work shop.
Very honest show i appreciate his comment on the tattoo industry being over whelmed with want to be rock stars and shops with starry eyed want to be famous non artist. I believe good tattoo artist are good at drawing not always tracing flash off the wall. Creative ability should be key and an ability to draw out designs. Thanks to Mr Paul Booth for saying and keeping tattooing true and honest. And ink master really put a stain on the art of tattooing (my opinion) and i dont watch or entertain that show. Couldnt stand ink master drama club
I like the idea of an artist using AI to help with creating ideas or visions, but the same concern with AI as those fake tattooists that came about because of the tv shows, tattooists that rely on AI to do the work and not create for themselves.
The 2nd artist that worked on me would wrap paper towel around his pinkie&ring finger,he'd dab instead of wipe and it would help him when stretching the skin and give him more stability..also a bit rude being on the phone when you've got someone especially someone like Paul Booth on your show..
Good to hear from the legend himself but god damn the editing with the sudden change of frames while Paul was speaking really threw me off a bit overall this was pretty bad ass podcast.
What great episode, Paul name was one of the first names my mentor told me about when I started my first apprenticeship, almost 12 years ago. I’d never really heard Paul speak until now, what a cool guy! I just wanted to ask what you guys do and how you feel when a client get in contact with you about there tattooing not healing well. We have all been tattooing long enough for instances to happen. It’s really hits me hard and sets me back even tho I done all the right things. I can’t help doubting myself even if it’s like rare accordance. How do you guys deal with it mentally? I love podcast, keep the good work up! Peter @theunknowntattoost UK
Wierd he didn't mention my aunt or uncle Billy and Robbie Eason. I remember Paul coming to Richmond VA for the Richmond tattoo arts festival and staying at their house and Hanging out at Red Dragon tattoo around 92-94

Wait what was his name?
1 hour of Paul Booth! This is like a Christmas present. I could listen to this man talk for days.
I really appreciate this. Cheers!

I used to dig this dude. I wanted a tattoo by him, went on a multi year waiting list, then quit waiting after 3 years and gave up on tattoos.
okay...

hell ya
My favorite tattoo, is my Paul Booth tattoo. Dudes gonna be really disappointed when he dies and ends up in heaven. Great guy.
😂
Well…. That’s quite a stretch… Pretty sure he has his reserved spot in the Underworld.
He’s completely different than what i imagined, love it
I wasn't expecting this, Paul. So much new info that fills in the gaps back in the day. This was amazing.
Oh man this one was so good, Booth said it perfect. Y’all are a bunch of g’s for this one
Paul booth is the first professional tattoo artist i ever heard of when I was a kid and for good reason
I think as a kid, Paul shaped my interest in dark style art. Although I'm not an artist myself, I've always loved his style.
Omg no one saw this coming. The legend paul booth
This is awesome,
I've been a fan of Paul since 99' a true legend
Icon. One of my childhood heroes and forever role models
Love this.paul booth is the reason I learned to tattoo. The man❤
I absolutely love this show!!!
I got tattooed by paul aroumd 3 years ago now. Have another session to finish it off. Can't wait..... absolute legend of a guy... an yes was a great experience to meet him and get tattooed by him.... 💯💪👍

Amazing interview fellas! Paul is el jefe!
Paulie B! The man the myth the mofuggin legend! Favorite tattoo artist of all time right here! Getchyo weight up, not yo hate up playboy!
Absolutely fantastic chat!! I could have listened for another 2 hours easy! Future guest wish list ; Flaks32G, Carlos Macias (Cryptic Tattoo) and Big Sleeps please.
Fantastic interview.
Been a fan for decades. Thanks for the insight.
great interview with the master of dark art.
I looked up to Paul back in 2003 he’s a legend for sure
Legendary 💯🤸♀️🙌
I realy don't know what to say,I just know that I love his amazing work,and I'm trying to learn this amazing art
Huck Spaulding was the first I recall seeing as far as how to books and VHS instructional videos or at least that's all that comes to mind
Piggy back off my own statement,,,,
I started in this industry in 2003 so I'm sure there had to be something around before that? I'm so curious who paul was talking about now lol
@@johnroberson4841I started in 93 reading Huck's book. It was taboo then to share information like that and was highly criticized.
Love the show all around but definitely an all time favorite episode _
All this dudes way definitely always my favorite tattoo artist
Absolute legend. Wish I could get something from him.
Fantastic podcast! Thx!
Great interview!! I am not a tattooer just a fan bit I could listen to Paul Booth, his stories all day!😎☠️🎃🔥
It’s amazing how clean the tats on his arms are. Normally tattoo artists experiment on themselves and have a lot of shitty tats.
I got his goblin from a complete amateur at the time I always liked his style
Paul is the reason I got into this…
I met Paul in hell city in ohio,awesome guy. It was surreal to meet someone i watched since 94.
Big legend,great video and interview
Tattoo Legend..Thumb UP..Thanks for Video
I would love to get tattooed by Paul I remember being a kid and seeing he’s work in magazines and just being enamored and wanting to learn how to do he’s style
Is “last rights” a Skinny Puppy reference or just a synchronicity? Either way kinda cool
Nothing beats the undertakers tattoos Paul did in the 90s!!
I still have one of his first flash set from the mid 90s
Paul Booth is awesome!!🤘🤘
I've always looked up to this guy.. amazing artist..
amazing ❤
Legend!
Hell yeah. I gotta Boothe design on my right arm. Shit is my favorite
@5:12 why the hell would u put that scene in of the host looking down at his phone while Paul’s explaining stuff 😂
i got U on my chest plate, both pecks. I'm Australian n was like ooooooh, this is art, not a outline from the past. Then I got a brief understanding of the preceager.

I’ve wanted a tattoo from the Boss since like age 14. I’m 36 now.. still hasn’t happened. Haven’t gotten a tattoo since age 16. Maybe one day.
JACK RUDY MARK MAHONEY HEY PAUL HERE IN THAILAND TO WHEN YOU TUK TUK BEND ON THE SIDE ‼️ THAT YOU SIT IN KAOSAAN ‼️ REMEMBER ⁉️‼️⁉️
The body is a temple, im just here to paint the walls.

A.I. can be useful and could be a good tool for reference, I like thart Paul see a.i. as a useful tool in the pouch
My favorite tattoo is the one I don't have.
Amo y señor de la tinta oscura
Good to hear from the legend himself but god damn the editing with the sudden change of frames while Paul was speaking really threw me off a bit overall this was pretty bad ass podcast.

Filip is the jesus of tattooing
The oldest angst teen in existence. Can’t believe he’s resorted to selling coffee. Time spares none.
Jon has a podcast
Jon and Matt have a podcast
WHEN U N FILIP LUE START DOING A CONVENTION (HAVE YOU SEE SOME OF THE WORK THAT THEY CALL "BLACK WORK" 😤🤔IN MY OPINION YOUR DARK SIDE IS 👍👍👍👍👍💀☠️💀☠️🏆
Paul’s a true artist but I gotta say - nothing he says adds up, mans a living contradiction lol
AND HEY WHAT TATTOO MACHINE S YOU USED "ABSOLUTELY COILS"RIGHT ⁉️⁉️⁉️
Wierd he didn't mention my aunt or uncle Billy and Robbie Eason. I remember Paul coming to Richmond VA for the Richmond tattoo arts festival and staying at their house and Hanging out at Red Dragon tattoo around 92-94
When was Paul last in Ireland lol? It’s more liberal than the UK now.
Can i pet that dawg ?
The fact he has green and yellow color stains on his arms ^^
I got a black and a green dilidoe
Was good back in the day..lazy and rushed standard of work now…honest feedback
Agreed. Hes great when it comes to Black and Grey especially the evil themed stuff but thats about it.
Not AI !!!
AI section starts 38:53

Cheap tattoos aren't good. Good tattoos aren't cheap.
