on a country road...
There was a thread about this on EYKIW recently, so I thought I'd bring it up here too.

Anyone have a U2 or PLEBA-related tattoo? I'm seriously considering getting one...Nothing huge or anything...Maybe just "U2" on my ankle with a shamrock or something...I dunno...Ideas?

:bono: :larry: :edge: :adam:
 
I'm also thinking about getting one, but I have no idea of the design. I think one of the girls here got one with the Elevation suitcase, which is really cute. I'd appreciate some suggestions too.
 
Ok I posted these like a year ago but I think it would be fun to post again. muwahahaha.

Sicy getting her U2 tattoo.

Yeah Sicy you look like you wanna kick Bono where it counts fer having that suitcase eveywhere and makin you want it!
 
Yeah its painful.. but you just deal with it. :D
I just kept thinking.. "I'm getting a U2 tattoo right now yay!!!!"

LolOlOlOllolOLOLlol Moana .. :yes:
 
[color=royal blue]I'm ticklish.

If I I get a tatoo of Bono's mouth or something, would they kick me out for giggling? I'm ticklish....:p

[/color]
 
i want a shamrock on my bum. i've wanted it for a few years now actually. nothing to do with u2, joost cos i'm rather irish.

i decided that if when i turn 45 i am still hardcore about u2, i'm going to get something like the little space alien done, but not before then.

for now, i'm too much of a wuss to get it done, hopefully i have thr courage to do it whilst in chicago.

carry on
 
if i got one, i might get one just like sicy's...i really do love it! i probably won't, however...or maybe the melon child...who knows?

but probably not "U2" itself, cause that's too obvious...it needs to be something that only fans would know...

what she said.. except replace "bum" with "hip"
 
Yeah, getting one on your hip would be cool, I think.

Thanks for the pics, Sicy!

I think I could probably deal with the pain...as long as I didn't look at the needle too much!
 
Oh, wait...Got another question../

When you go in to get one, do you just bring in a picture of what you want and then they do it? Or what?

You can bring in a picture, or pick one from all the books they have at the shops. My tattoo didn't hurt at all, in fact I started laughing because I thought it would be this intense pain, and it felt like nothing...I should take a picture of it and post it here....I also want a U2 tattoo, but I think I'll wait awhile...
 
Part of me wants a U2-related tatoo, but part of me worries about how I would feel about the tatoo when I am 80 years old with wrinkly skin (and the tatoo gets all distorted).

I am thinking about getting a personalizes U2 license plate for my car (less permanent)
 
it hurts sometimes....my ankle and upperarm and calf didn't hurt but my upperback hurt like a bitch as well as under my arms and close to the elbow.
I'm trying to figure out how to manipulate a sun of my arm to go with the letters U2. hmmmmmm....

Where on your body did you get your tattoo?

Seeing everyone's tattoos really makes me want to get one, but I'm paranoid that I'll have regrets about it someday. I'm also kind of worried about the pain factor.
 
this girl i know through a weird connection got a tattoo. her dad told me about it. then he said as soon as she got she said she wished she hadn't. not much that this girl has done has ever impressed me.
 
I got a tattoo in Italy in 1992, my friend there did it by hand on me and a another girlfriend of mine, she got a little U2 tattoo like where a ring would go on one of her fingers!....I remember I wanted to have them put U2 on me but I was worried I would eventually get out of the U2 obsession I was in, lol, see I should have gotten it because its now 2002, a fan since '87 and instead of U2 I have a stupid design thingie and I still love U2 and will forever....
so yeah, I am planning on getting one....I think I will wait til they come around again and then travel somewhere to a show and get one in the city I travel to so I will always remember it!
great pics Sicy.....

I worried about being 80 with a butterfly tattoo on the top of my foot...but then I thought..."What if I don't make it until I'm 80?" I know that sounds morbid, but you never know what might happen...Live for today!
 
i would just get one in a place i could cover...if in a few years i still like u2, i might get one...i kinda want one now, but y'never know...i'd have to find a design that's meaningful for me...

everyone who has a u2 tatoo, POST PICS!!

still like U2??????? I've liked U2 since 1985...you can't get them out of your system that easily....

Anywho...I got a tattoo in 1994 commemerating me meeting my favorite band, my gods if you will at the time, the Beastie Boys. Even though I don't listen to their music as much anymore and consider u2 now my favroite band I have absouletly no regrets permently etching the Beasties name in my skin. i think of tattoos like snapshots in my life and everyday I look at the one on my arm, or on my other arm, or on my back, or on my ankle, or on my calf and remember exactly where I was and what I was thinking at that moment in time...therefore I have not one regret in ever getting a tattoo....its the story of my life.

hehe...Yeah, I already did the personalized license plate thing!

I guess I'm not so worried about how I'll feel about it when I'm 80. The way things are going, I'll still be a fan! Hahaha...I can just see me now drving around in my old lady car with the windows down and the music blaring...Of course, I won't be able to hear jack shit, but oh, well! :lol:
 
i was joking (if y'all couldn't tell) when i said if i still like u2...what i meant is if i still really want one in a few years, then maybe i'll get one...

heehee...do you know how many people you'd have to tell why you have a lemon tatoo...heehee...that's a good one! *considers*
