My tats are very personal to me, and I thought a long time before I got them. I was 25 when I got my first one and 30 before I got the second. As I said, the third will be when my son is able to do it, it's his design and it should be him who puts it on.

I have seen this design on a few arms. I like to ask them what it is. It's all I can do to keep from busting a gut laughing when they say, "It's tribal, man."

I've never had the heart to tell them it's a spindle adapter for 45rpm records. Most of them wouldn't know what a 45 record was.

I WILL only have a tattoo that personally means something to me, not just because its cool. The two I know that Im getting soon definetly mean something, and I constantly think if its really worth it, and to me it is. Tribal is worthless nuff said.

Ok, so tell me....WHY is a Tribal worthless?

I personally like the look of them, which is why I had my son draw the dragonfly in that style.

So, what is worthless about them?

BTW Mayhem, I am ashamed to say, I knew what that was a picture of...I remember what 45s are, and 33s for that matter......hell, I even remember what 8 tracks are. :eek: We've come a long way in sound quality, but sometimes ya miss that little bit of scratch and crackle that an old record gives ya.

we werent saying that tribal was bad, just that they didnt know what they had tattoo'd on thier arms. its a specific symbol, and the dont know what it means. its like someone getting a pentagram on thier arm b/c they think it loooks cool. tribal isnt MY preference, a lot of them look good, but also a lot of them look sorta bland... dime a dozen.

btw, crystal, new england draggin? drag racin or dragin frame?

Never said tribal was worthless, though I think even fewer people realise where that whole trend came from either.

I missed the hiss and crackle of my old LPs so much I went out and searched all over Columbus for a turntable for my stereo. Mostly found cheap or way overpriced DJ quality stuff but I eventually found a good Pioneer for $100.The Beach Boys and The Ventures don't sound right on CD.
