SP Tattoos? 2 Months, 3 Weeks ago  
Anybody got one? Let's see what they look like. I'm getting ready to get my first. I want to incorporate a short and sweet but profound lyric from any SP songs. I have some ideas but wondered what suggestions you all might have. What lyrics do you already have tattooed, and if you don't have any, which ones would you get?

Do you know about Rat-Tat-Tattoos? They've got tons of pics of SP tattoos.

Re:SP Tattoos? 2 Months, 3 Weeks ago  
well, i am planning on getting one on the back of my neck, and i want it to have a black heart, and the initals bwbw and it's a black heart they'll get, but in really swirrly cursive, i will have to have the writing small though, to fit, cause i don't think that tats on the side of your neck look that great, now there are some people who can pull it off, but not most. then i am gonna get one on my leg probably, i will have to find a space on my left leg, right one is already in a whole "theme", that will be the sp heart, with maybe a little pumpkin or something, but bloodlined, not black outline. i already have 6 tats, 2 of which are pretty big. i want to get a whole mural on my lower back of bands that i love with all my heart, so i am working on that idea, and the money to get it.

i have seen lots of the sp hearts, and some of the artwork from inside mcis. but i think if you got something custom that you conseptualized that would be even better.

for lyrics, man there are so many that would make a awesome tattoo. but i think that you have to find the ones that speak the most to you.

sorry i get alittle excited when people talk tattoo's, ocupational hazzard, i am tattoo crazy. but most people think that if you are you should be covered, but i look at it like, it is forever, and you better be able to live with what you get forever, so choose wisely. and make sure where ever you go that everything is clean and steril, make sure they let you look at what they will be using on you, and if you think that they are at all maybe not clean do not go there. and ask around people you see with good tattoo's. also, if someone's tattoo looks like it is raised above the skin, or shiny that means it is scared, and that the tattoo artist did not do it right. so ask those people where they got thiers, and DON'T go to that place.

i would say that i could do it, but wrist problems have prevented me from doing any tattoo's for about 7 months now. and i am hating it.

ok i will stop now.

Re:SP Tattoos? 2 Months, 3 Weeks ago  
Uuuuh, I wouldn't dare to.
Not even one of the Pumpkins (which would probably have been my 1st choice).
I'm afraid of having this permanent in my skin and I'm also afraid of changes (maybe oneday, I won't like Pumpkins any longer for some reason, and then???).
But it'll surely look cool

Re:SP Tattoos? 2 Months, 3 Weeks ago  
I've already got some tattoos (not SP though), but I've always wanted some SP ink. It's a catch 22 though. On one hand, getting tattoos of a band is kind of looked down upon. But when getting a tattoo you're suppose to get something meaningful and close to you right? So what better than an SP tat??

I've thought about getting the word "Siva" written in a Hindu language. Something like this शिव, on the inside of my right bicep. Also, the symbols in the MCIS booklet have always appealed to me as a good tat.

lyrics would be cool, but so would symbals from different points in the bands career. MCIS symbols and Machina symbals would be my choice. If looking at lyrics, I would prob choose "The Impossible is Possible Tonight."

Re:SP Tattoos? 2 Months, 3 Weeks ago  
A buddy of mine, who is also a Pumpkinhead, works at a place the Pumpkins played last November. So he was able to walk around and talk with Billy and Jimmy all day. He got them to sign his arm and he had it tattooed the next day. When he asked Billy to do it Billy said, "Are ya sure you really wanna go through with it?"
