Hell City photos: Day One

Hell City photos: Day One

The ink-to-skin ratio in Columbus this weekend was as high as it's ever been. The eighth annual Hell City Tattoo Festival came through town, stopping by the Hyatt Regency for a three-day stay.

Columbus is one of only two stops in the country for the festival, with the other being thousands of miles away in Phoenix in September. Several of the best tattoo artists from around the country came to town this weekend for the event. We were there to catch all the action.

Check out all our photos from the first day of the festival (May 29), and if still want more, you don't have to look far. We also have tons of photos from the second day at Hell City.

Once you've had your fill of ink, take a look at our photos from some other recent events around town:

* Bike night at Quaker Steak and Kickstand Pub
* Yeah Yeah Yeahs at the LC Pavilion
* Rock on the Range at Crew Stadium
* Suicide Girls at Spice Bar
