P66Tattoo – World Record Attempt for Breast Cancer

Posted on 01/05/2011 by admin

24-hour Event Complete!

Final Count: 656 tattoos

We didn’t make the record – but we gained so much more than we ever anticipated. We had no way of knowing how moving and emotional this day would be. Not only was it truly incredible meeting survivors, fighters and supporters and hearing your stories and watching your excitement and nervousness as you talked about getting a tattoo – but seeing Kaos actually bring healing through his art. We saw weeping – laughter – witnessed people cheering each other on. Women and men, young and old – for a brief moment in time, we were ALL in this together. We were all one – working toward a common goal and putting down our walls and boundaries and sharing a part of ourselves with one another. This was a once and a lifetime experience. We are all truly humbled.

Thanks goes out to Kaos and his IMPECCABLE and dedicated team: His apprentices, Vinnie and Cherry, and his girlfriend Tracy, who all tirelessly worked to ensure that Kaos had what he needed the exact moment he needed it. Damien, put stencils on each and every one of you. And to his friend Patrick that recorded the entire 24-hour event and set up the live feed that many of you enjoyed.

Thanks also goes out to Jeremy Hydle, owner of P66 Tattoo. His team consisted of not only friends, but his family. His apprentices Corinne and Shanime kicked butt getting each person in the chair and prepped and ready for Kaos. His sisters, Jessica and Sheila; his wife, Mary; his brother, Greg; father, Les; cousin, Cara and friend, Tim worked the tables getting waivers signed, helping Kaos glove up and ink the machines, doing whatever needed to get done.

Thanks goes to the heroes of the day that brought us food and water. That ran errands and brought us gloves when we were running low. That volunteered to clean chairs and help glove Kaos because they saw we needed a break. The ones that waited in line for 8 hours for their tattoo. The cheerers. The huggers. The orgasm scream girl. The criers. The comedians. Thank you all. You WILL be seeing us again!

P66 Tattoo – Tattoo Artist to Break Record for Breast Cancer

Posted on 11/17/2010 by admin

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:

Tattoo Artist to Break Record for Breast Cancer

(Denver, CO) – October 16, 2010 – For 24 hours this New Year’s Eve, a well-known Denver tattoo artist, Kaos, will attempt to break the world record by tattooing 900 pink ribbons on breast cancer survivors, their families and supporters.  The current record stands at 801 tattoos in a 24-hour time period.

Kaos’ goal is to not only raise money for breast cancer research but to encourage continued awareness by bringing in the New Year and reminding people to “Save the Boobies!” and do self-exams each month.  “This is a cause that is close to all of us.  Every day we hear of someone that has been affected by breast cancer and this is my way to contribute and make a difference”, says Kaos.

This grassroots effort is being brought together in partnership with Monster Energy drinks, Guinness World Records, P66 Tattoo & Art Galleria, Streamline Hot Rods, and RockStar Industries Ink’d and promises to raise money and awareness while bringing in the New Year in a positive and meaningful way.  A $10 minimum donation for each pink ribbon tattoo will be requested and proceeds will be donated to breast cancer research.

P66 Tattoo & Art Galleria and Streamline Hot Rods will host the event which starts on New Year’s Eve and will end on New Year’s Day.

P66 is Denver’s premier tattoo shop that opened its doors in August 2010 and is owned and operated by Jeremy Hydle, who has been a creative force to be reckoned with for well over 10 years in the tattoo industry, and Todd Gold, who owns Streamline Hot Rods.  Hydle also is the owner of Cherry Creek’s first tattoo shop, RockStar Industries Ink’d, which also opened its doors in August 2010.
