Title: MMJ Inspired Tattoos!
Post by: Sleazy Rider on Jul 26, 2007, 05:47 PM
I thought it would be cool to share everyone, including the band.
The Pheonix was done about 2 years before the ISM skeleton dudes and is not related. In a better picture you can see that it is a quality tat but this is not a good picture.  I wasn't sure what I wanted but I knew it had to be inspired by the Jacket I'm sure that I will get more MMJ inspired tats in the future. So, let's see what YOU got.

Alright, sorry guys. I guess I thought that getting some ink of your favorite band was something normal to do. I kinda feel weird now. Is anybody thinking " golly what a dork" ? If so, at least tell me. Let me know your opinions on MMJ inspired tattoos. That will work.

Perhaps everyone's just awestruck, SR.

I was put off tattoos at the age of 12 following some experimentation with ink and a sewing needle.  :-[

Yeah I did that to, when you wrap the thread around the needle and stab the shit out of yourself with it. Kids are dumb but it was still fun.

Really!? That's cool. I had looked for something doable and these guys seemed obvious. I had also thought about choosing a lyric special to me which is something I will still probably do. I could do a whole sleeve of art, lyrics, and whatnot but I don't think I would. That would possibly be scary. But they ARE a great band, and I think they are worth the tribute of dedicating some flesh to them. Can someone describe the pic Realdeal posted?

it's some dude with a snakes on a plane tat.  I don't even think it's him, just something(someone) you have to ignore around here.

Here's Ryan's tats:

Snakes On A Plane? No thanks.

Mine look pretty much the same as his mine is just a shitty pic. I like where he put his better than where mine are though. Anybody else out there with ink? If there is no more MMJ tats we could move to off-topic and share 'em there.

Those are great!  I was thinking of maybe getting one of the OKONOKOS cirlcles.

That's the hairiest arm I've ever seen.  I mean, you'd just have to keep shaving it so as to see the ink...

i have the red "Z" on my shoulder blade, and im thinking of getting an owl in their honor.
my "Z" is very confusing for alot of people, they just dont get it. but it was VERY popular at bonnaroo. everyone loved it, then it sparked many conversations as to why they didnt play the 'roo this year.
ill post pictures later.

Ratchet, a picture would be cool. Post at your convenience. Bermuda, True, meow is the time. You both have killer ideas, meow go out and get that shit on your flesh. That would be a cool sight at a jacket concert, a bunch of branded fans. Then we could have a huge gallery of tats on the website! If we could find more people into that sorta thing that is.
