Sorry for the lack of updates in the last week or so. I just moved in with my lady friend, and I’m still working on finding my computer and a wall plug. It will be a bit longer before I’m rocking the site again. But rest assured I’ve got some good ones on the way. Thanks to everyone who is sending in your pictures and stories, the will be up as I get the time together.
Thanks,
Nathan!
In Keith’s own words:
This is a knuckle tattoo I just recently got. I got it because I wanted my tattoo to have some meaning to it yet sound cool. Give and take is how life works and you can relate the tattoo to a lot of stuff. You give your time for work and you take money. You give your money to a store and you take your TV. It reminds me of the sacrifice you have to put in to get a gain, with everything really.
Alls I know is what’s in the picutre. Oh and his name is Ryan.
Looks like Spud (VACATION) has already been spreading the word. The day his knuckles posted I get these knuckles from his friend Andrew C.
This is what Andrew has to say:
I am a touring guy as well, tour managing and running sound for bands far and near. I have worked for The Black Dahlia Murder, Cattle Decapitation, Dropping Daylight, Panic Cell, Nonpoint, Sevendust, etc…
I got “HOMEWARD” because it is my favorite place to be. Granted I get bored real quick but that is where my wife and son are and thats good enough for me. So even my first day out on tour is one day closer to being home!
I like that these came in back to back. Two different ways of looking at a similar journey.
These knuckle tattoos can be found touring the world on a guy called Spud. He is a tour manager and sound guy for bands including Terror, American Headcharge, BloodSimple, and God Forbid. His next tour will be with Bury Your Dead.
Here is what he says about his knuckle tattoo:
It says “VACATION” cause my life is a vacation. When I work I tour and do sound and when I’m home I do nothing.
If you want to find where his vacation will take him next check the myspace.
Hey y’all, this here is Raymond straight out of Newcastle U.K. He just recently got his knuckles tattooed. He picked “OBSESSED” for his obsession with tattoos. Raymond, we sure know where you are coming from.
Cheers!
These beauties belong to Anima from Boston. The reason he got this design was because he is an audio/mastering engineer.
UPDATE: Anima sent me an updated photo.
Nerdcore. This is a function for a mathematical singularity. When x=0 this function fails to compute. As x approaches zero from either direction, it aproaches either negative or positive infinity. Cameron had this to say about his tattoo:
I got the tattoo because I like the idea of math not being well behaved. That sound’s lame and I really don’t mean that in some kind of A is for Anarchy type way. I just think that its kind of nice that something as perfectly fuctional as math can kink up around the edges.
I don’t think that sounds lame at all. In fact I think it’s important to remember that even in the seemingly cold world of mathematics there are things that just don’t come to a reasonable answer.
Ah yes, WASD. The four letter combination every PC gamer knows. W, A, S and D are the ‘holy four’ keys used to maneuver your electronic killing machines through video game space. This top Set was sent in by Matthew M.
I actually got two sets of these sent in. Here is the second set:
This set can be found on Nathan B who attends the University of Massachusetts in Amerhest. Nathan shares not only my name, but also by birthdate. These are Nathan’s first tattoos. He thought that the knuckles are the coolest place to get tattoos (We agree!). They are tattooed in white UV reactive ink. They won’t be very visible under normal light, but under a black light they will show up nice and bright.
These are the knuckle tattoos of “Captain Catastrophy”, the onstage human torch for Belgium’s rock sensation El Guapo Stuntteam. He got them because of the Lynyrd Skynyrd song Free Bird and it’s use in the movie The Devil’s Rejects.
Here is a clip of him doing his thing:
