What tattoo to get next?


Hi there,

I wanna get a tat that reflects my interest in music and/or all things audio. Probably get it done my left shoulder. I have several ideas already in mind..

- Cover of Elton John's "Live in Australia"
- Cover of Dire Straits "Brothers in Arms"
- Cover of Supertramp's "Even in the Quietest Moments"
- a Saxaphone
- An Oracle Delphi Mark V turntable (any help pointing me to pics on the web I can grab would be appreciated, didn't have much luck so far).

Anything else come to mind folks? Thanks, Jeff

jeff,dont listen to em man,do what you like!get the tattoo that you like!tattoos arent for everybody but neither is hifi,i have a tattoo covering my back of the judas priest album jugulator,i dont care for the music but i liked the tattoo.

one thing to keep in mind when gettin a tattoo is if you ever grow tired of the way it looks its much easier to get a cover up if you keep the color around 50% or less.

mt10425 is correct when he says that you will want more,if you like what you get you will continue,i know, i started with 1 tattoo & ended up with both arms sleeved out & my total back covered but im ok with it.

kurt tank, when you can sucessfully explain your love for hifi to your non hifi friends ill explain the love for tattoos to ya,its a matter of what ya like.
Hey guys,

This is turning into a fun thread. I already have a tattoo on my right shoulder, it's a very tasteful (and simple) flag fluttering in the wind. Shoulders and backs are great places to get some artwork done; tats are something you do for yourself and I like the fact that 99% of the time I'm the only one who even knows I have a tat. Dark Side of the Moon is a novel idea, I may consider that one as well but my only concern is becoming a total jazz or classical nut in my later years and wondering why I have a rock album tattooed on me. I'd love to get a turntable done, any ideas where I can find some good pics of an Oracle Delphi V? Any other novel ideas? Cheers, Jeff
jeff,

if you are truly meant to have a tat, wouldn't it already be obvious which one to get? it seems a little silly to ask strangers on an internet forum for advice in this area!
Ketchup, what are you saying? We are the most knowledgable group regarding any topic. Just ask us:-)))
We're all interested in music and the gear that makes it come to life, asking your opinion as to what musical/audiophile tat to consider seems appropriate to me. I also have a kinship with a lot of folks on the 'Gon, asking friends isn't a bad idea. It's a rest-of-your-life decision so I want to make sure I get the right tat done. Art for art's sake? Yeah! Best, Jeff
