BEST TOUR STORY: Had a show with an old band I was in back in the 90's called "Davids Playground". We were playing in New York City. None of the other guys had ever left Maine, so they were very scared. We got caught in traffic and my girlfriend at the time, had to pee. Unfortunately, my drummer was driving and he and his woman didn't want to stop the van. Finally, they had to stop because of the traffic. We jumped out and told them to pull over and wait for us, so my girl could pee. Instead, when we got out of the store, they were gone. They were so scared, they left us there. We ended up walking through New York on foot, about 22 blocks to the gig.

SPOTLIGHT STORY:
How to begin? I am not very good at talking about myself. I have always been my worst critic, however I will try and do the best I can for ya'. Well I guess I have always been the different kid. Never wanting to conform to the norm. I knew at a very young age that I wanted to be a musician. I remember watching MTV and all the metal bands on there and just being in awe. I wanted that so bad and still do. I spent many years devoting my life to music, however it did not pay the bills. I finally realized I needed a day job that I could stomach. I have always known how to draw, it was something I could just do. SO, the logical choice was to go into tattooing. I loved getting tattoos, might as well do them. I never dreamed I would own my own shop. I also never thought I would have done what I have accomplished in my music career either. My life has turned out to be more than I ever dreamed so far. I am truly looking forward to what else it has in store. http://www.myspace.com/coopacreations
