Today’s BMEtv video takes up back up to the Gold Coast where the BME World Tour Team met up with Anders the Piercing Guy. This video was originally set to go up on May 30th, but there were some problems with the video. Since then, they’ve been corrected, and it’s ready to go.
To check out the video, keep on reading!
If you’ve missed any of the videos so far, you can check out the rest of them in the BME World Tour Video Gallery
Yosemite Valley, to me, is always a sunrise, a glitter of green and golden wonder in a vast edifice of stone and space. – Ansel Adams

It’s always fun to see someone really enjoy their first suspension. When they abandon themselves into the moment. The young lady below is Oompa, and she’s Kaptive8‘s newest member after suspending for her first time a couple of weeks ago.
The Tribal Trading gang up in The Netherlands are quickly becoming the go-to people for microdermal projects. Today’s piece by Bart Bastiaanse is reminiscent of Pac-Man’s favorite fruit.
Can you keep a secret? KaterPie almost spilled the beans, but her other half Tri-Stan stopped her in time. However he couldn’t keep her away from the keyboard, and now the secret’s out. These two lovebirds are going to be parents!
In a few short months we’ll hopefully be seeing photos of the new addition to the family in the couples who met through BME gallery.
Be it cutting or burning, Brian has scarification down to a science. This recent cutting of his shows exactly why he is a master of both. It should be noted that Brian has had this design planned out for over 6 years, and only recently found someone to put it on.
With his skilled hand he was able to carve this image out of flesh, only to follow it up by branding sections to create shading. It’s exquisite and really shows why Brian is one of the finest scarification artists working today.
Back in September of 2009 long-time BME supporter and IAM Member Namicoj passed away. Shannon, the mother of Mike’s son Morgan is going to be participating in the Out of the Darkness walk in Indianapolis, IN. Here’s the e-mail from Shannon:
I don’t know how many people know, but Mike Shaw aka namicoj passed away September 2009 by suicide. He was a huge fan of BME and all that it stands for. I was curious if you guys would help put out the word for his Indianapolis friends that there is an Out of the Darkness walk In Indianapolis, IN and we have a team walking in his memory called Mike’s Crew. Shirts are being sold for $15 by Mike’s mom. If anyone needs to get ahold of me my email is [email protected]. My name is Shannon Coon, mother of his 10 y/o son, Morgan. I would greatly appreciate the help if possible. I didn’t know all his BME friends and have no way of getting in contact with them. Here is a link to donate or sign up to walk.

Shannon will be walking in support of The American Foundation for Suicide Prevention.
The American Foundation for Suicide Prevention is at the forefront of research, education and prevention initiatives designed to reduce loss of life from suicide. With more than 33,000 lives lost each year in the U.S. and over one million worldwide, the importance of AFSP’s mission has never been greater, nor our work more urgent.
Feel free to contact Shannon if you have any questions regarding the shirts, and if you’re able, please give a little to the cause.

So many possible “roller” headlines, so little time. This little birdie is called a Lilac-breasted Roller. Aside from being a native to Africa, it also makes a great subject for a tattoo thanks to the wide variety of colors it displays.
This tattoo in particular was done by Kerri Kiple from Rendezvous Tattoo and Body Piercing in Marquette, MI.
