I want a PJ tattoo...
I don't know what exactly but since Vitalogy is my favoritealbum, I would prefer something linked to this album...
My preference goes to a drawing/picture, not text...
Favortites tunes: corduroy, tremor christ, last exit, better man, immortality...
The image should resume PJ.
I don't have any gift for that kind of stuff, so any idea is welcome...

    Just a suggestion - maybe reading the lyrics will give you an idea about an image you'd want....?

    Then you can go to a tattoo place & talk to them - I think most tattoo artist's can work with you on drawing something up. You know, a special design just for you.

    thanks... I willtry to find inspiration in the lyrics... But since english is not my mother tongue, it's not so easy for me to "feel it"...

    I fell in love with the art work and bought the album, then I fell in love with the music... immediately... this is the first PJ album I bought and I was so wow... this was what I was waiting for... I was 14 and didn't understand any English word. So, Vitalogy didn't really "say" something.

    A sentence I like and represent what I felt is the first lines of corduroy (the waiting drove me mad...). Moreover, this is the first song the played in antwerp, my first PJ show...

    Well, there you go - use "Corduroy" as your inspiration. If you have artist friends, they might be able to help too. Can you get that song translated in your own language? It might help you relate to it more.....

    I think indeed Corduroy is the one... IMO, it represents PJ quite well. If I had to play a song for someone who doesn't know them, it would be that one..

    So, yes, I will have the lyrics translated. I can do it without problem by myself and I understand what is said. translating in French will certainly help me to have a better overview. The "difficulty" will be to "translate" the lyrics into an image...

    Thanks dude...

    Yeah, it might take a while, but I'm sure you'll come up with something nice. Oh, by the way, I'm not a dude....ha, ha.
