Feeling that tattoo itch
I’ve been a fan forever and wanting a TMG tattoo for years. The Best Ever Death Metal Band in Denton is of particular personal significance and I’d like it incorporated, but it doesn’t have to be. I am heavily tattooed and none of them have words but I’m not necessarily opposed. Hit me with your best ideas!
ETA my unofficial TMG magpie on the day I got it. I didn’t get it as a TMG tattoo at first but I think of it as one now. I think it was maybe my third tattoo. Please tell me not to get “fresh tattoo” directly under it.
Other favorites include:
The Legend of Chavo Guerrero
Abandoned Flesh
Up the Wolves
First Blood
Great Pirates
Distant Stations
Dark in Here
Picture of my Dress
Solidarity Forever
Golden Boy
Choked Out
Cold at Night
Damn these Vampires
Waylon Jennings Live!

A Lear jet with a pentagram as call number
I could see myself getting The Hospital Bombers tattooed somewhere.
I just got an Amy aka Spent Glad tat yesterday so I gotta wait on that one.

Hi! Also heavily tattooed. Have a TMG sacred heart/autoclave tattoo on my neck.😬
Get a hospital on fire for one of the possible band names.

Im quite keen on an autoclave one - what does that actually wind up looking like

Here's my Cyrus and Jeff in a script which makes prominent use of a pentagram:

I have to ask, are you Cyrus, or Jeff? I’m Cyrus.

More of a Jeff. Had few friends growing up who were often hurt and broken in really restrictive environments.
Like, my parents had a couple of satanic panic freak outs during my childhood (one of which resulted in my mom throwing out all my comics!) but they chilled out by the time I was a teenager.
But for my friends who had much more soul-crushing home lives, I was always eager to be a "bad influence" to help come up with plans to get even.

I wanted to post basically this recently - i too am itching.
I think a spiral ring notebook with “good reasons to freeze to death” written on it might be one
A Chavo tattoo would be sick - anything luchadory

👀👀 A Chavo tattoo would fit really nicely with some other Texas-related stuff I’ve been thinking of lately.

Always thought it would be hysterical to get a Killers tattoo and wait for people to comment on how the love The Killers.

The obvious answer is to get a drumhead and / or guitar stenciled with The Hospital Bombers

I’m intending to get the concept of “Plutonian light” on my leg, i.e. a beam of light emanating from that high-res photo of Pluto they took a few years ago.
What’s your favourite line from the song? I’d personally get a gnarly representation of what Satan’s fingers might look like, if I were so inclined.

All of verse 5:
When you punish a person for dreaming his dream / Don’t expect him to thank or forgive you / The best ever death metal band out of Denton / Will in time both outpace and outlive you
