I don't have one .....yet. I am getting one done though. I already have a tattoo of my last band's logo - God Awakens Petrified and I mean to get one of the DTB as well. Both bands marked major turning points in my life.....so I gotta' get a DTB tattoo as well.

Tattoo's RULE :twisted:

I got one on my right forearm, looks like yours, but maybe a little bigger. On the other side i've got an 'SYL'... because 'SYL is the opposite to the DTB' kinda thing.

seriously though, whoever designs the logos (more than likely dev) deserves a fuckin award! all the logos are genius!!!

I really REALLY want to get the SYL logo somwhere, but im not going to simply because i think getting band tattoos is a bad idea no matter which band. ugggh i want it so bad though. all i can think of is when homer looks at his tattoo "STARLAND VOCAL BAND!? THEY SUCK!"

I have a policy never to get a tattoo of a band logo or a sporting team logo. I would however use a picture off an album cover if it appealed to me enough, but not an actual cover itself or anything easily identifiable.

ie, in the film clip to Def Leppard's Let's Get Rocked there's this screaming face musical note that looks cool which I was once considering getting because nobody would know where it came from anyway but in the end I found soemthing I liked better

I know what you mean.... I am picky about that too, I wouldn't want to just have a band name or whatever. I got the tatoo shown in my avatar because not only do I consider Infinity to be possibly the greatest album of all time but also, it stands for so much else and has so many other meanings to me and my life.

Personally I'd only get a band logo for a tattoo if I were in the band myself... more personal that way.

Ever so slightly off topic... but at a gig i saw a guy who had 'EARTH' tattooed on his right cheek and 'CRISIS' on the other. covering pretty much the whole of both cheeks.

What if one day he thinks... crap... i don't really like earth crisis anymore...

I mean at least with an 'SYL' symbol, should you stop liking them one day, you can pretend that it's like the japanese symbol for 'METAL' or somethin, know what i mean?

I can see why some people think its a bad idea to get band tattoos, i guess its worse if you get a bands name tattooed for example if you had "STRAPPING YOUNG LAD" tattooed on your forearm you would more than likely regret it one day. Something subtle like the DTB or SYL logo is cool though. Im definetley gonna get the SYL logo at some point.

Well at least the DTB and SYL logos do look good and it's not like you have METALLICA tattooed across your back!! :shock:

The infinity symbol is good too because let's face it it's an infinity symbol. It's a common thing and only you know that in this case it representents Dev. So it's all good.

I'm actually off to get another tattoo sometime soon but don't know what i want yet - any suggestions??

Getting tattoos of artists is a ridiculous idea. No matter how much you like them. Terrible terrible idea.
