band tattoos?

i think to me it wouldn't matter if the band broke up or they stopped making music. its all about how a particular song or cd made you feel and impacted your life.

 

Yeah... ...This Happened to me with N'SYNC.

 

I have a friend who got that really big on his back. Almost everyone who knows him has laughed about it behind his back lol

 

i will for sure be getting the sublime sun tattoed on my back sometime soon.

not just because sublime is my favorite band, also because i fucken love the design.

 

I have the Pearl Jam Stickman tattooed on my left forearm.

 

im getting a tattoo of a picture off of the ness creek festival poster does that count as a band tattoo, it wont have any logos or names in it, just a picture

 

oh....I thought you meant like a bracelet tattoo around the wrist or ankle. I have a couple of girlfriends with flowery vine type wristlets that go all the way around the wrist........those are cool.

peace

i have been thinking about getting a Dead inspired tattoo.....they will always be apart of my life. my whole family is saturated in the Dead culture. i've been around it forever. its the band that wrote the soundtrack to my life.

 

I saw some guy in AC with a bob marley tattoo i never seen any other musical type tattoo so far... only the bob marley one...

 

I have the cover of pink floyds DSOTM on my back. it kicks ass.

 

I've got an Alice in Chains sun on my lower neck.

 

i have a tattoo of dave grohl on my arm.. seriously

 

i'll post a pic of it when i get the chance.

 

I've had the same realization (the Dead soundtrack of life thing years ago), in those exact words you used & I so I got my Dead tattoo & although this is a useless comment I'll go on to say that I later realized (maybe, in fact, after some what of a Dead burnout experience) that the only way I could continue on without the Dead was to make my own soundtrack, thus I learned the guitar & now write my own 'soundtrack'.

Although, at least currently, my music has virtually no Dead similarities (minus subtle JerryG guitar sharities) ... quite dark and elusive, compared to a Kurt Cobain songwriting against a Black Sabbath/Jane's Addiction musicdrop

:X

 

I have the crown and eye logo of Bob Dylan's.. I love the tattoo, I've had it since I was 16. Even though I do not listen to Dylan as extensivly as I once did, this tattoo has the same signifigance of any other tattoo to me. When I was severely depressed "Last Thoughts On Woody Guthrie" somehow made it okay. I thank that poem with saving me from that depression. So, yeah I have a "band" tattoo, don't listen to him as much as I did, and highly doubt I will EVER regret it.

 

lol, yeah right!

I found the next pic while surfing at TattooArtists.org
and it reminded me that someone here had asked for LZ's symbols... so, there ya go!

edit: Illegal Reference blah blah... anyway, it was a picture with Led Zeppelin's symbols (Led Zeppelin IV) tattoed on some guy's arm...

 

Yeah Woody Guthrie was amazing

I can see where profile tattoos could need touched up, but I didn't get a tattoo of dylan, just his logo.. hehe

It still needs touching up though

 

gots a modified steal yer face. its in my gallery somewhere.

 

I've been thinking of getting a tat... As music is my main passion, I wanted something to do with that... Nothing obvious though...

Just something with subtle connections with me and the music I love.. I've seen so many people with the Zeppelin symbols... people who aren't even ardent fans... Makes me a bit sick actually...

I'm still very undecided.
