Jon, of Skin FX

[Wondering]

I heard a rumor that Jon is coming back to open a new shop. A Christian shop. Anyone have any info on this??? We need him back, without casey there's no one good enough......They made a great team, maybe they'll pair up again?

[knows]

I know Jon moved to mississippi recently, so I really don't know how valid this rumor is. It would be incredibly awesome if Jon came back and Casey joined back up with him. I miss both of them so much as artists!! They are the only guys who I will let tattoo me.

[Me too]

I miss Casey too he was f****ing hottt!!!!

[Guest]

I find it extremely comical when I hear the name Jon Bates and Christian in the same sentence. I had a business deal with Mr. Bates and he in all of his christianity screwed me over. He is the type of person that gives Christians a bad name. I have called Jon several times and left several messages and not one time has Jon picked up the phone and tried to make any form of restitution to me. I had to listen to his sob stories when Jessica was screwing around on him, of course if I was a woman and I was with him I would screw around on him just because he in all reality needs to grow a pair. I have ZERO confidence in Jon and have even less use for him. As far as I am concerned he is a thief, liar and a hypocrite.
Jon, if you are reading this I pray to God that you realize that I have not forgotten the debt that you owe to me, I will collect one way or another, trust and believe that tattoo-boy!

If you'll identify yourself tough guy, and you have a legitimate beef with me, I'll square with you....however, if you insist on hiding behind the cool and original name "GUEST", then how can we possibly resolve this matter? And one more thing mystery "GUEST"....I will find you and Christian or not, we will take care of some "other" business you just stepped into.....So you better be the one praying to God we can resolve this BEFORE i find out who you are...even though i already have an idea...E. You need not speak of another mans wife. I WILL take care of you for this oversight. How big are my balls now? THIS IS JON BATES...Lets see how big yours are peanut.

Glad I got your attention. I find it pretty funny how you have screwed over so many people professionally that you cant seem to keep track. Let me give you this hint as to my identity, you shouldnt boo hoo about your personal life when you tat my girl and permenantly screw her skin up. Everyone says you are the best but as I have told you, you need to fix the problem that you made with YOUR hand. You gave your word you would give a coverup on your botched art and you hightailed out of town after going out of business. She is still waiting and so am I. You might forget who you permanentantly damage, but we look at it EVERY day.

[Jon]

ok...still, WHO ARE YOU?..."GUEST"?

[Jon]

Must be a long name....

[Jon]

Well, I guess either you're attempting to type a novel, are a slow reader, or don't really want to reaveal your name.. anyway, I will fix whatever I did IF I did it. I was in a very bad way back then, and obviously you wouldn't know how that could affect a person CAUSE YOUR LIFE IS FLAWLESS. And yes, I am man enough to give my name and to appologize for my work if indeed it is bad.... and just to ease your mind "GUEST" I'M NOT SAYING IT ISN'T. I made more than one mistake back then, and now, I WILL TAKE CARE OF ALL OF THEM. So anyone else reading this thread can know from me, JON BATES, you will be taken care of. As for you "GUEST", I don't tattoo no names... and one more thing, PLEASE don't forget, it's not healthy to talk about another mans wife. I guess you just overlooked that huh?

[Jon]

Would you be less afraid just to tell me what the tattoo was? Or do you just want to continue this sweet little kiddie game of "GUESS WHO I AM"....

[Jon]

Guess it's past your bedtime.

[Know him too]

I know John and he is a great guy. Sure he's had some drama in the past but who the hell hasn't. I know for a fact that if John is back in the area I would use him if the need arrises. I don't have any tattoos on me but I have recommended him and still will because of the work that I have seen him do and I have that much respect for him. I have dealt with John professionally as well and I know that when he gives his word it is rock solid. Keep your head up John, I always knew that you and Jess would make it through all the sh*t! Can't wait to see you back in the area, I will swing by when you get set up and we can ride those hawgs!!...Well pseudo hawgs!! Did you ever get that custom job back?

BTW, Guest, GO F*(K YOURSELF, Johns coming back and you all can settle the score then, My $$ is on John!

[Jon]

Don't know who you are, but thanks.....

Yeah, you do know who I am, just think a little. I think that any person takes to Topix to settle a professional issue is a moron. You and I have had business and I assume that we have remained friends. Hope that you come back to the area, I didn't even know that you left. We always said that we would ride someday, My bike is NOTHING next to yours tho'. Keep us all informed when and where you will be, I would love to catch up with you.

Don't let that guy that calls himself "Guest" get to you, everyone knows that when you are in the business that you are in there will always be one or two a$$h0loe$.

I would give you my name but I try like Hell keeping my name off of here. Hope you understand. But i think you can figure it out anyway.

[david harley]

[Jon]

Thanks Justin and Dave. Yeah Wayne's pretty ill right now, but as soon as he's up and around he's headed here to let me fix someone elses mess ups on him. Saliva just finished touring about 2 weeks ago, as I know you know Dave, and Wayne was already feeling ill then. Aime says he's getting better and will be ready for me to tattoo him in no time. Miss you guys!

[justinsummers]
