    I think a tattoo should be for you. If you are a professional (like you and I) you really cant have your forearm tattooed up unless you plan to never wear short sleeves at the office or around clients. now many will think "who cares what others think?" and I would normally agree, but in the real world, I think it matters.

    I got the stickman on my chest 13 years ago (small, maybe 3" x"2) and I've never regretted it. it means much more to me than just Pearl Jam but it's just for me, not to show others how much I love PJ.

    good luck.
    I'm just wondering, no offense intended, what kind of "professional" wears short sleeves to work? Just wear a long sleeve shirt if it's a problem.

    as a lawyer, there are days when you dont expect to see clients and wear a polo to the office or to an event. wouldnt do that if I had tattoos up and down my arms.

    Just got this one done today, you can't see all of it but I will get a better picture once it's totally finished and healed :-)

    (the stickman is a few years old)

    I've been a fan since I was when I got my first copy of Ten on cassette when it came out and I was 7. Next to GBV, they're my favorite band of all-time. I've been considering getting a GBV rune tattoo for the longest time, but now I think I might get a PJ one instead but don't know what to get. PJ20? The surf board? Decisions, decisions!??

    I'm pretty much dead set on getting "Jesus greets me...looks just like me" tattooed somewhere. But I can't decide where I want it. I was thinking "Jesus greets me" on one wrist and "looks just like me" on the other. But I can't decide if I want it to be that visible or not. Any ideas? ;)

    funny i just saw this thread. i have always wanted a pearl jam tattoo. ive been waiting most of my life to meet Eddie so he could autograph me and i could get it tattooed lol. i have two non pearl jam tattoos already but recently i have been wanting to get "Once upon a time..." tattooed down my arm. its pearl jam related, it means so much and it explains alot n my life. Im hoping one day to meet Eddie and have him write it for me so i can have it tattooed on me in his writing. LOL i know in my dreams, i thought about writing him a letter and maybe he would write me back... i live in fairy tale land though i understand that hahaha but i'll i wont give up on my wish :) what do u think? anyone think he would possibly write me back hahaha? :D

    I have a black and red stickman on my left shoulder with the line "restless soul enjoy your youth around, then i got an old victrola style turn table. On the turntable is of course is a record with PJ in the center, and rather than having a horn, it is an old tree with music notes that surrounds the stickman.
