    I just got this one! I love lyric tattoos and such, but am way too big of a baby to get one! I was struggling between "that what you fear the most will meet you halfway", "no matter how cold the winter, there's a springtime ahead", and "i'll ride the wave where it takes me" and I honestly couldn't pick just one, so instead I did some research and found this letter that Eddie wrote to Johnny Ramone after he'd died and he drew a little wave. The more I researched, the more often I found the wave. So I got it and I love it so much! It's Pearl Jam and it's Eddie and I think it's so beautiful!

    That one is awesome! Good work!

    I don't really have a Pearl Jam tattoo. Mike is my role model/biggest inspiration in my life.. For years I've always wanted to get a lightning bolt on my wrist for me. So I have that. Nothing great but it holds a lot of meaning.

    okay here are mine...

    Thanks goes out to Leti as the House of Tattoos in Amsterdam for 90% of the work on the my right arm. She added the bottom portion with the No Code logo back in June.

    all healed up - image

    Just started work on the left arm, so work in progress...yes and I know Stickman has some mileage with tats, but he's been with me a long time. So I didn't care... ;) The lines on the side match the left arm..

    the XXX is the Amsterdam Flag and of course the bridge is in the same theme.

    The Netherlands and Amsterdam specifically holds a special place in my heart, not just for seeing PJ there, but the city/country helped me through a bad time, when I was searching for myself and direction in my life. ...... long story.......but this is in part my tribute to PJ music and Amsterdam for helping save my life..

    I'll post updates as I get them.. still a few sessions to go...

    Are we getting something out of this all-encompassing trip?

    Seems my preconceptions are what should have been burned...

    There also the fact that I have a ICD implant that will shock my heart if it goes outta tune .... =(( ....Seriously.
    So the Lightning Bolt has multiple meanings to me.
