    I am very proud to share the stickman tattoo with "hundreds of others." When I run into others who have them I feel an instant sense of community from it. So what if a lot of people have it? It's not like the millions who have chinese symbols that they can't even translate or a tribal around their arm. Those people are suspect to lack of originality and conformist personalities. Obviously those who have gotten the stickman do it in tribute to the band that saved their lives. Or maybe they are just doing it because it looks "cool." I did it for the former and my stickman, strategically placed on the inside of my right calf with the word"Alive" written under it, is not only a tribute to the band but also a personal thank you to Eddie's words of that very song. See, I was a 13 year old boy home alone without the knowledge of my father's influence. It was a tough and confusing time in my life but those words opened the doors to a world of expression and awareness that I am eternally grateful for. We are not alone in our struggles and when I see the stickman on another it helps me remember that. Perhaps you should take that judgemental nonsense over to the Buckcherry or Nickelback sites where you'll be greeted with a whole of of "Dude!" and "you rock brother!" Maybe over there you won't be so easily challenged and systemaitcally picked apart of your shallow and fruitless comments.

    I've got the surf board logo with a sunset inside of it.

    I want to get these lyrics next, but i am not artistic, so if anyone has any ideas:

    "Makes much more sense to live in the present tense"

    I was thinking typewriter font, but I am not sold yet.
    Hey brother.

    I've got the Stickman on my right shoulder blade - it's pretty big, too. I feel the same way as you do about it. No, it may not be the most 'original', but that's kind of the point, right? I love when people stop me and point to their stickman tattoos - it's like you have an instant connection and as though you're part of the same 'brother/sisterhood'. I mean, look at Deadheads and their bears - it's the same idea here. I wanted it for about 10 years before I finally got it and I'm kinda mad that I waited that long to do it!

    Got mine last year, my first, and I love it, in Eddie's handwriting, from the lyrics posted on 10c page.

    I have the cover art from Binaural on my leg with the words "Pearl Jam" in fire below it. The fire part was a cool thing I found on the net that a fan had done.

    I have 2 pj tats myself. My first was the ticket stub from my first pj show (6/19/95 beetle logo) on the inside of my right ankle. Got that one in '97 or '98. And the second one I have on my left calf and it's "3 crooked hearts with swirls all around" with my grandparents initials above and below because I miss them already. Got that one in '00. Now what to do for the third...
    107 Shows and counting

    I designed one for myself about a month ago.... But I'm not sure I'll do it. I love PJ and all...but not sure I have it in me to get them in my skin. I already have 2 tattoos but they are my own thing.

    PG2010, lyrics are a good idea, I have some writing on my leg also (not pj related) but I think text does look good, as you can get a nice soft style so its still pretty (and keeps you looking good) plus you could always have a soft boarder, like a ribbon or something.. keep thinking ;) It'll come to you one day
