Dilema... Deluxe Vs./Vitalogy or Tattoo

edited September 2011 in All Encompassing Trip
So guys... I just got my paycheck, but a girl has to make choices... I'm already facing the extra expenses for PJ20 cd+book+bluray BUT I kinf of GOT TO have the Vs. Vitalogy Box... It's precisely when I first started to listen to Pearl Jam, between those two albuns... And I'm afraid that if I wait another month it will just disappear from goods section and I'll have to slit my wrists... :P

On the other hand, i have this PJ tattoo waiting for 15 years... For one reason or the other, I never actually did it and now I'd like to do it as a celebration of the 20th anniversary... First, it was because I needed my parents approval and they'd say "that's just a phase", and then, I decided not to go with the stickman and it took me quite a long time to figure out what would it be... Right now, it has been settled for over an year, but there's always something in the way (money is never enough).

This month, I have to make a choice. If you were in my place, what would yo chose?

    Considering your point about the box set possibly going away, the tattoo idea will always be in your mind.

    I would get the deluxe editions while they're still available. Tattoo will always be there.

    But what about the extras.... If I was to know for sure it would be available next month, I'd go for the tattoo immediately...

    Yes it does... Thanks guys! I'm going to this tattoo studio during my lunch break to see if they can give me an estimate on the price of what I'm looking for... I think I'll either go for third option (if affordable): :lol:

    My reasoning: You can't listen to Pearl Jam with a tattoo
