Joe Capobianco on Tattooing in the 90s, Tattoo Magazines & The Future of the Industry.

In this episode of Convention Talk, we sit down with legendary tattoo artist Joe Capobianco (   / joecapobiancotattoos   ) to discuss his journey through the tattoo industry—from airbrushing in the 1980s to earning a tattoo apprenticeship that lasted only one month before he was out on his own. Joe reflects on how tattoo artists built their reputations in the 1990s through tattoo magazines, long before social media existed. Back then, getting published in a magazine could launch an artist’s career overnight. We also dive into the modern tattoo landscape and the challenges facing today’s artists. Joe shares strong opinions about the risks of corporations attempting to regulate or control tattooing and how that could change the industry forever. Another major topic is the accessibility of tattoo equipment today. With machines easily available online, many people are starting to tattoo without proper training or mentorship. Joe explains why apprenticeships once mattered so much and why accountability—especially for younger people experimenting with tattooing—is more important than ever. Finally, we discuss the culture of social media and how some artists are giving away the “secrets” of the industry in exchange for likes and followers. This is an honest conversation about tattoo history, mentorship, responsibility, and protecting the integrity of the craft.
