Kat gave fans a look inside her new book, High Voltage Tattoo recently via her Myspace page and we thought those of you that don’t do the myspace thing might like to have a peek as well.  So check it out, in addition to the book cover (above) here are some of the guts as well.

Enjoy and remember the book is out on January 20th from Harper Collins.  Fans can pre-order it now from Amazon.

Kat Von D Cancels Musink

Well, so much for that.  Musink was supposed to be bigger and better in 2009, and now the whole thing has been shut down.  And Ms. Von D does not have a whole lot to say about it either.

I’m sad that this year’s festival will not go on as planned, but I’d rather the fans not be disappointed, as there were key elements that did not come together as originally designed.

It’s being tossed out there that things were cancelled due to the “current economic climate”, which is a legit concern.  But I wonder what sealed the deal.  It is not as if the economy took its big dive in the past month, its been dipping pretty low since October.

Another new L.A. Ink is on tonight, I have my DVR set, do you?  Here is a little preview of tonights episode, which has not 1 but 2 “celebrities” getting inked.

LA Ink airs tonight (12/11)and every Thursday on TLC @ 10/9c 

Check out some video clips below from this weeks new episode of L.A. Ink, which airs tonight at 10pm ET on TLC!

First clip features Matt Bradley from Deadliest Catch…..

And this one is about Kats new book…

Some of you might remember last year Kat Von D came up with the MUSINK festival in an attempt to combine music and tattoo culture into a weekend of craziness.  And it spanned several cities earlier this year.  Well, she is at it again and has set the dates for the 2nd MUSINK festival for early 2009.

This time around, MUSINK will go national for 6 weeks, beginning in late January, and will feature music and tattooing and even seminars this time around.  In addition, Kat will be there full time and signing her new book, High Voltage Tattoo, which should be interesting.  And for fans of some old school punk rock, Social Distortion has signed on to headline the music portion of the festival as well.

The always quoteable Kat was of course ready and willing to provide this nugget…..

We had such a blast with the first MUSINK Festival, it only made sense to take this event on the road and share the experience with everyone all over the country. In my lifelong attempt to show the world what a brilliant form of art tattooing truly is, MUSINK will be the perfect way to showcase the world’s top tattooers, and their diversity in culture and style of the art—all under one roof.  MUSINK is gonna be so huge and so rockin’; I can’t wait to share it with the fans!
