Petri Aspvik Posted January 6, 2011 Share Posted January 6, 2011 also have an anti-burnout, kinda anti-punk loser tattoo "LIVE SLOW, DIE OLD" in script on my shoulders by nick colella. Greatest. Shit. Ever! Sadly, Im not as cool as you guys. My first tattoo was a hand poked Wu-Tang clan logo that I got in a group home when I was 15 and then my first "real shop tattoo" was this angel demon thing that has Korn written in its shirt. Yeah... Fuuuuuck... If I would get a band tattoo, it would be something to do with Bruce Springsteen, because he is THE MAN. Been listening to him for about 13 years. Could be practically any lyric of his. Other one would be maybe a quote from the interview I did with Great New Jersey band Spanish Bombs DREAMWORLD REALISM: Interview with Spanish Bombs If a 16year old kid would buy one of your albums, what would you like him to get out of it?Be fierce young lord! Thats the coolest line ever. Quote Link to comment https://www.lastsparrowtattoo.com/forum/t/20-band-or-song-tattoos/?page=3#findComment-4508 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tight-Lines Posted January 8, 2011 Share Posted January 8, 2011 Is is wrong that I am so tired and fed up with people talking about Skrewdriver and how much they hate them (I do as well, yet dont make it constantly public) that I want to get a Skrewdriver tattoo? Just to piss off all the people who initially see it. Then tell them what everyone says when they accidentally say they were listening to Skrewdriver... "Well the first album was really good brah..." I Drunk. Quote Link to comment https://www.lastsparrowtattoo.com/forum/t/20-band-or-song-tattoos/?page=3#findComment-4629 Share on other sites More sharing options...

So you're drunk listening to the first album? You know the Templars which is an all black skinhead band (though they have been rotating in their third member not black lately) rip their sound from recording to progressions straight off Skrewdriver and have even said Skrewdriver was a great band but their lyrics sucked. How I love every time The Templars play in the Bay Area! The stories and ??? that are just not okay for the internet. Who's been? They are brilliant on and off the stage!! A must listen if you don't know them! Quote Link to comment https://www.lastsparrowtattoo.com/forum/t/20-band-or-song-tattoos/?page=3#findComment-4630 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tight-Lines Posted January 8, 2011 Share Posted January 8, 2011 Actually, Im drunk watching David Cross stand up and laughing constantly. Im going to download that right now (if I can find it.) I really like Skrewdrivers sound, but their lyrics after the first album were... well horrible. Ian Curtis could have been a lot more, but turned out to be a National Front asshole. I need to watch out for this band. It sounds great. While writing this I switched to Tom Waits... ohhh the sorrow!!!! gougetheeyes 1 Quote Link to comment https://www.lastsparrowtattoo.com/forum/t/20-band-or-song-tattoos/?page=3#findComment-4631 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Petri Aspvik Posted January 8, 2011 Share Posted January 8, 2011 i really want a tattoo for Thunder Road. Yes. This is amazingly well written. As is anything with Bruce So you're scared and you're thinkingThat maybe we aint that young anymore Show a little faith, there's magic in the night You aint a beauty, but hey you're alright Oh and that's alright with me How... normal. Fucking amazing. And this part There were ghosts in the eyesOf all the boys you sent away They haunt this dusty beach road In the skeleton frames of burned out chevrolets They scream your name at night in the street Your graduation gown lies in rags at their feet And in the lonely cool before dawn You hear their engines roaring on But when you get to the porch they're gone On the wind, so mary climb in Its a town full of losers And Im pulling out of here to win. Fucking amazing. Its normal, everyday life, but its so romantic that its more than life. Or its life seen as it really is, in all its sorrow and beauty. Thunder Road is fucking amazing in the Born to Run box where there is the live dvd from Hammersmith Odeon. Fucking sony or what ever, but they take all the good versions of the youtube, so the song isnt there anymore. But, its fucking great. Just with piano and total darkness, where you just see Bruce singing. gougetheeyes 1 Quote Link to comment https://www.lastsparrowtattoo.com/forum/t/20-band-or-song-tattoos/?page=3#findComment-4645 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tight-Lines Posted January 16, 2011 Share Posted January 16, 2011 Got this today at Sacred. The chick is from the X-Files episode where the Tattoo is controlling the dudes mind and making him kill people. The words "All Sewn Up" is a Lucero lyric. Im all Sewn Up with bad tattoos. gougetheeyes, Patriot Ink Tattoo and Headphoned 3 Quote Link to comment https://www.lastsparrowtattoo.com/forum/t/20-band-or-song-tattoos/?page=3#findComment-5268 Share on other sites More sharing options...

FACEACHE Posted January 25, 2011 Share Posted January 25, 2011 Here are 4 that come to mind: ROSE TATTOO- Scarred for Life TURBONEGRO- F.T.W. CRASS-(every punk rocker back in day had this tattoo even if they hated the band) Peter Wingfield- 18 With a Bullet (18th ST. bangers have gotten this tattooed since the 70's. It's some doo-wop type music) Two of my most loved things are tattoos and music....I don't think I'd be a tattooer if it wasn't for music... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iYdK3eVSuTI Quote Link to comment https://www.lastsparrowtattoo.com/forum/t/20-band-or-song-tattoos/?page=3#findComment-5793 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Loch, do you remember when Ques would wear that Skrewdriver sweatshirt? There were so many confused reactions to that haha. Also, i think there should be a thread just for D's drunken responses, and then his reactions to what he's posted the next day. What do you think D? btw, nice tattoo. there's so many Lucero lyrics that i want as tattoos.

Fucking sony or what ever, but they take all the good versions of the youtube, so the song isnt there anymore. But, its fucking great. Just with piano and total darkness, where you just see Bruce singing. it's desperation, and trying to have something more than just that sinking feeling when you settle. the opening lines especially: "The screendoor slams, Mary's dress waves" it just sets the whole tone. "Like a vision, she dances across the porch as the radio plays." you can just picture her coming out of the house to see what the noise outside is, and you can feel her excitement, even her hope, that what that noise has brought her is not another disappointment, like all the other boys she's sent away. there's a sense of promise and glory. it feels like the same promise and glory that fuels the "American Dream". also the layers of comparisons and metaphors like "Roy Orbison singing for the lonely. Hey that's me and I want you only. Don't turn me home again, I just can't face myself alone again." he's describing "Pretty Woman" but also the protaganist's plot in the song too. It also reminds me of the Lucero line "Jukebox don't know it's the graveyard shift; shakes, rattles, and rolls." from Here at the Starlight. I actually feel like both the Boss and Lucero have a lot in common, though Lucero's songs are split (at least i feel like) between the rise and the fall of the "American Dream" anyways, i could keep nerding out on this. i'll have to look for that video Petri!

Lochlan Posted January 25, 2011 Author Share Posted January 25, 2011 Robin, I agree with the idea of DC and his escapades having their own thread! DC? Did you two see the picture I put up in the Random Picture Thread (pg23 post number 226) that made me think of DC?

TexasJavi Posted January 25, 2011 Share Posted January 25, 2011 Well, i dont care what anyone thinks...haha but i really really love skrewdriver and their sound...i dont believe or support any of their lyrics and just take it for what it is...fuck it. And Lochlan, TEMPLARS ARE THE BEST!!!! Also love Main Street Saints...anyone? Im also a big fan of psychobilly. I have a cheesy looking butcher knife with a banner that says "Mutant Rock" in it and the blood on the blade form the letters "O.T.M.A.P.P." which stands for Only The Meteors Are Pure Psychobilly. I also have a beer bottle with a banner around it that says "SICK BOY" in it. What else...i have a Pedro Infante portrait...google it. I have a Mastodon water drop from their blood mountain album. and last but not least a really bad homemade tattoo that i did on myself when i was about 14 on the inner side of my calf that reads "PUNX FOR LIFE" hahah so yeah...thats about it.
