Unique Ink!

Bummed you missed out on tickets to the OC Music Awards this weekend? Head over to the OC Fairground tonight through Sunday to check out the fifth annual Musink Tattoo Convention and Music Festival.

The event showcases some of the world's best tattoo artists and some great performances. After getting used to the buzzing, you can watch the artists use traditional techniques without machines, freehand incredible designs, check out some art hanging on the walls, or catch the Miss Musink competition.

The Howlers, Guana Batz and Tiger Army are performing Friday night, followed by Bayside, Yellowcard and New Found Glory on Saturday, and The Darlings, Hell or Highwater, Against Me! and Alkaline Trio (pictured above) on Sunday night.

Check Musink.org for set times and convention hours.

Tickets are $30 for single day passes at the door or $50 for all three days.

OC Fair & Event Center is located at 88 Fair Drive in Costa Mesa.
