Zumbi, what are you thinking of getting?

 

I have been thinking of getting the screw from the counterparts album on my right arm. :)

 

Jesus, Mary and Joseph, NOOOOOO!

Got my first and only ink back in 2012. I incorporated several things in the design:

  • The 3 red spheres, because HYF was the contemporary album when I first became a hardcore fan.
  • RUSH as shown on the Presto cover, because Presto was the first new release I got to experience after becoming a hardcore fan, and my first concert.
  • Respond/Vibrate/Feed back/Resonate - I wanted to include lyrics, and I used this of course as a tie-in to Presto but also because those lyrics invoke a kind of passion that I can really connect with, not only as it relates to Rush but to so many other things in life as well.

I spent a LOT of time working on different ideas for this, and I think the end result works well - lots of things represented in one cool little ink package :)

It's no secret that I think that CP is Rush's worst album, and the screw/bolt is a symbol of Rush's worst album and a symbol of their worst lyrics. Of course, it it's your love, you gotta get it. I'm just teasing with my histrionics.

I am praying no one was dumb or drunk enough to get a Vapor Trails tattoo.

:) ....

 

Hey now Narpinski! As the official Vapor Trails ambassador I have to say that not only is it a fantastic album--and the return of our favourite band--the cover art would also make a neat tattoo.

Pretty cool, actually. And Led, you can't be so young that you don't get the humor of the symbol.

If I were to get one, No doubt it would be something related to that

Getting a Rush - Clockwork Angels tattoo is the equivalent to getting an

AC/DC tattoo of Fly on the Wall

The humor was that people expected an album with songs as good as Dreamline, Ghost of a Chance and Bravado and got screwed.

I have the starman on my calf and love it, although it needs a little touch up work..

 

And a word to anyone getting the starman design; pay attention to the shading! A lot of images online have inverted shading since the original image on the album has a black background, they just invert the black/white so the shading on the figure makes no sense.. when in doubt, look at the butt Crack. It should be black cuz the sun don't shine there ;)
