I think Outlandogirl has the GITM tattoo.

I don't have one or know who does other than what I read here. I saw a young woman years ago with one. She worked in a music store in San Leandro California in 2000 or 2001. Looked very nice.

Maggie and I both have them, but her's is better.

Was Wombat's the one where the "Stewart" was larger than Andy and Sting and it was a dark green color? I loved that one.

If you get one, get it BIG. The "heads" must be at least an inch and a half tall. Trust me... it will look a lot better. I should have done mine larger and I'm a little upset about it. I was in a hurry and got it done the day the tour was announced (or shortly thereafter) with very little deliberation or thought in any direction other than "NOW" and "RED".

One of these days, I'll get it done over or add something to it.

There was a guy in Cardiff, or maybe London Last year?
He had portraits of all three tattooed on his leg, I think it was.
He had just had it signed that day by Stewart, and was going to have the signature made permanent by tattoo-ing it in.

I'll see if I can find a pic.

The avitar is mine. Lower back. Got it in 2002. The faces are exactly the same size as the graphic on the CD front sleeve. The tattoo artist just photocopied it and then transferred the image to my back. I was originally going to go smaller, but I'm glad I didn't.

I didn't go with red because I'm very pale with a lot of pink undertones and I knew the red wouldn't show up well, especially over the years.

The first person I ever saw with one was a fan named James (I think) who ended up moving to Egypt to teach English. His was on his bicep. I met him during the Brand New Day tour, as I recall. Thanks for the inspiration!
I could be replaced by any bright spark.
