So my wife and I watch the Miami Ink and LA Ink series whenever we catch on the tele. I got to thinking, has anyone here been to either of the shops? Most likely you all living around the Miami or LA area? For a place that seems open to the public, I would think it would be packed with people seeings the shops are part of a television series.

Has anyone ever been to either shop? Can you just walk in? Do you see the usual cast or are there different people working when they arent on camera? Is there a waiting list to get work done there? I don't know, bored, just got me thinking.
