Warsocki complimented him on the design, told Corey he was headed to New Orleans for a tattoo convention, and asked if Corey wanted to go along and crash on his hotel floor. Corey took him up on the offer, and at the convention in New Orleans, Corey found a whole new realm of tattoo artistry.
He met famed artists such as Guy Atchison and Eddie Deutsche. They tattooed with a style that Corey says had "absolutely no boundaries" and that was "limited only to imagination. The trip was the beginning of his annual voyages to Ann Arbor, Michigan, over the next twelve years. He would eventually become one of the most sought-after purveyors of ink in modern times.
But let's get back to our story. It was , and upon his return from that first tattoo convention in New Orleans, Corey got a break from the one and only Jack Rudy, who gave him a job at Good Time Charlie's Tattooland in Anaheim, California. Good Time Charlie's was an institution in the tattoo world. The shop lasted about two years and, in addition to drilling some amazing tattoos, also hosted an unforgettable shootout on the front porch.
Unfortunately, Corey soon had to throw one of his partners out, and the other took an extended vacation as a guest of the State. Soon, Corey was back to traveling and, when at home, tattooing in his basement. It was in that dank, underground dungeon that the name "Six Feet Under" was born.
Looking back on his formative years, Corey feels lucky to have experienced the best and the worst of the tattoo business. He never had a formal apprenticeship, as many tattoo artists do, but instead got his education by "going on my own and falling on my face and doing it all again on my own terms. For Corey, a couple of the highlights of his career include being sought out by two incredible artists. But every tattoo Corey Miller designs, whether for customers famous or unknown, is itself a unique and timeless work of art.
In addition, he continues to break new ground by engineering cutting-edge tattooing tools. He has seen a lot of changes during his more than twenty years' experience in the business, and looking into the next millennium, the sky is the limit for Corey Miller and his house of original tattoo design, the Six Feet Under Tattoo Parlor.

But by Season 4, he and Von D were the only original cast members at the shop. But unlike Von D, Miller was not the owner of the shop.
As mentioned earlier, in Season 3, Miller clashed with former manager Aubry Fisher. But even after she was let go, things didn't exactly get better for Corey. He would also clash with Von D, and by the end of Season 3, his future with High Voltage was on the line.
At the Season 4 premiere, the issues spiraled into Miller quitting and leaving the shop, per Entertainment Weekly. Apparently it was a decision he starts to regret, and the rest of the season follows Miller's journey to getting rehired. In an interview with RiverFront Times before he left, he said doing the show is a worthwhile experience, and he'll be satisfied to have been a part of it.
I took the ride. The circus was in town and you do [sic] that. No job title saw as many changes on the show as much as the High Voltage manager position.
When Aubry Fisher was dismissed, she would have two more successors. Elizabeth Friedman ended up replacing her, but she did not last on the show, of course. In the beginning, her work ethic impressed Kat Von D, but Friedman had issues blending in with the employees that she was managing and overall, the cast of "LA Ink".
At the same time, Adrienne Ironside was also a shop manager. She and Friedman often battled it out for control on the series, which led to several meetings with Von D, according to an episode list on IMDb. When Friedman got caught up in a lie, Kat decides to fire her. Then Ironside takes on the role as sole manager of High Voltage.
Luckily for her, she remained in that role until the show ended. Inked Wall. Inked Accessories. Phone Cases Laptop Sleeves Wallets. Shop by Artist.
