    I was thinking of trying to come up with a collage of PJ logos or maybe like 1 thing from each album to represent them all... The V is sweet, I think I saw some female fan w/ that behind her ear but I can't remember who.

    that's cool but a bit too big for me... I was thinking something maybe... 1/3 that size... and maybe less scenic (for lack of a better word.)

    there's that website that has all the PJ tats on them, I think if you hit the Google key on tattooed everything you'll find it.

    The stickman kicks ass. I will be getting that for my tattoo sometime soon hopefully. You can't go wrong with it. Its simple and kicks ass.

    The vitalogy V is a great touch though. Keepin it simple is always good.

    I like the stickman, but it's made into a tattoo a bit too often, in my opinion. It was nice to see something different.

    Trust me I've thought of other possibilities. (no code triangle, the 5 agaisnt 1 sign from the VS album jacket, given to fly statue, yield sign, etc) Nothing quite does it like the stickman. Plus im going to have it say "i got memories" from I Got ID on the bottom to make it more personal.

    Nice back restlesssoul that must have taken a while. As for my stickman tattoo, i love it. Its fun explaining to people who have no idea what it is where it comes from. I was thinking about getting the riot act cover next. Thats probaly my favorite album cover by pj. Its either that or one of the pics from tools 10000 days cd.
  • jeremyjeremy Posts: 409
    Keepin it simple..that was the idea..and the acceptance of which album made the difference back to the 90's..vitalogy's rules..

    p.s. and i love the fact that a lot people have no idea what it is and where it comes from..only the ''good and the chosen ones'' know about it..:-)))

    very cool tat! When I was 15 I went to get the stickman on my heel. I chickened out. Now that I am 32, I still regret not getting it. But, I also think that while it does mean so much, a ton of people have it. There is nothing wrong with that, but I am thinking I may want to get the surfboards now. I still debate which one to do every day LOL! Love the V

    Getting my first tattoo next tuesday. Should have gotten that stickman 10 years ago, but apparently I needed time to think it through.....
    I know that there must be 10000 ppl outhere with it, so you could call it old and worn out, but to me nothing says PJ more than that. It's simple and ppl that know PJ know exactly what it is. And the ones that don't are in for a loooong story:)

    I truly don't get it why people on here have such a problem with the stickman tat. If I ever decide to get a PJ tat- that's what it would be. Does that make me a lesser fan? Don't think so

    I never claimed people who got stickman tats were lesser fans. Getting anything from Pearl Jam tattooed on your body, which is permanant, probably means you are a faithful fan.

    i was going to have the stickman..
    but i thought the V is more personal..more 'me'..
    and not so mainstream..:-)
