tsom tattoo?

THE place for your Sisters-related comments, questions and snippets of Sisters information. For those who do not know, The Sisters of Mercy are a rock'n'roll band. And a pop band. And an industrial groove machine. Or so they say. They make records. Lots of records, apparently. But not in your galaxy. They play concerts. Lots of concerts, actually. But you still cannot see them. So what's it all about, Alfie? This is one of the few tightly-moderated forums on Heartland, so please keep on-topic. All off-topic posts will either be moved or deleted. Chairman Bux is the editor and the editor's decision is final. Danke.

At a sisters gig once I saw a guy with a head & star logo tattoo (the old logo) on the back. Has any of you guys anything similar? Or is it too much too dedicate your body permanently to this band? :)

Hello,

I have the old head and star logo at the top of my neck (where that boney bit is that sticks out.)

It hurt but it was worth it :D

Cost me 40 quid, I dont know what the going rate is but again, it was worth it :D

Puts me in mind of the Roald Dahl short story about the homeless guy who has a tattoo on his back which was once done by someone who went onto become a famous artist.
A rich art lover promises the homeless guy all the comforts of the world if he'll let him 'look after' him and his tattoo.
The guy agrees, and is never seen again.

Not the most complex plot ever written, granted. I can see it now, on e-bay:
'Sisters logo, limited edition, in ink on the finest leather.'

Bids, anyone?

Nope. Just removal of your neck and head should keep you out of court.
Loki was never worshiped as the other Gods,
Which is quite understandable.
