I really think you should enter this piece into a contest if we decide to go to the tattoo convention.

keeps looking better and better everytime. Next time I expect him to jump off your chest and start thumping the bass.

as you frantically try and recover the bleeding from your gored manchest.

Thanks Miller.

There is something to be said of having symbols or images of ideas or people you admire on your skin all of the time. For a long time I swore I would never get a music-related tattoo because I thought it was stupid to have a symbol of something I do every day on my skin.

That, of course, was when I was at Berklee and I thought I would be playing music every day for the rest of my life.

I think that part of the camaraderie involves the fact that those with tattoos at least have taken the courageous step of making a commitment to something. Even if it’s just a drawing, it’s there for life. Part of it also is the excitement of something new; I’ve had mine for almost ten years now (I just turned 28 a couple of days ago), and I’ve got to say that I’ve gotten so used to them that sometimes it just hits me that I’ve got cool tattoos. I don’t even notice them half the time. The camaraderie definitely won’t be there when you meet some piece of dung with a swastika or black panther on themselves.

Congratulations on the ink. You’re a true metal warrior! Sign of the Hammer!
