Inkcarceration 2026
July 20, 2026chris
This years Inkcarceration did not disappoint! Was it rowdy, yes. Was it loud, yes. Was it fun… HELL YES. Dee and I had an amazing time away from the studio, meeting new people, laughing, and enjoying the music – which ROCKED. Was it a long weekend…. this picture answers that:
LOL! Resting on Sunday for a bit before Limp Bizkit came out – we were exhausted. Since this year I was the one with the camera, most of the pictures are of Dee with all the exciting people we got to meet, talk to, and learn their stories – and mind you, some of these amazing people traveled from across the country for this festival.

Watching the nuns performing a exorcism was funny – nothing like a spit in the face and a nice slap!
Trading trinkets and bracelets, stickers, and other items was one of the best parts for me this year, we ended up with quite a bit! I passed out over 300 little Jesus’,
because – “Everyone needs a lil’ Jesus”… and if you were there and got one, you know I repeated this 300 times this weekend! We also gave out Cryptic Ink Stickers
and a mystery item (I can’t say here because we are running a contest tonight!). The overwhelming laughter, the “yup everyone needs a lil jesus” and the overall good moods made it worth every minute. Let’s take a look at our loot pile:

I handed one guy a lil Jesus and he said I have just the thing for you –
Guess he wasn’t a big fan! LMAO! But in good spirit he got me back – and I just laughed as well. That’s the thing, it’s all about the fun, and lil Jesus may not be everyone’s taste, but nothing like a little get back!
And I should be offended!!! I got a unsolicited dick pic!!!! (pick) LMAO!
I only recorded a few minutes of different artists’ songs – mainly because I was too busy having fun to record all the time, and I think half the fun is actually being there! I hope to see you there next year, and we will be handing out lil Jesus’ again for sure!!
