I have a number of tattoos that are either album art or lyrics etc! even if you get bored of a certain band, it will always remind you of how much they meant to you! I mean tool have been around for over a decade, and they are an institution of the industrial wave! you could start by getting loads of illuminati concepts haha!

which one? I’m happy with mine and would make sure I got a good coverup job if I didn’t! laser treatment is far too expensive over here in the uk! I didn’t know it was something that was done lightly!
