A little help

poppy · 04.29.2007, 07:31 AM

To celebrate the mighty Sonic Youth coming to Glasgow in Aug I've decided to bite the bullet and get a SY inspired tattoo....Yip. Bit foolish and might be on set of a mid life crisis but fuck it!!!

Problem I have is I can't decide what to get being a libra I'm terrible at making decisions.

Any help??

A washing machine, like the 1995 SY T-shirts perhaps, Daydream Nation's Burning candle would also be nice

The sock puppets from Dirty! Just trace them, cartoonify 'em!

sonic life cross, the classic "I'd give my soul..." thing, the 4 symbols on DDN cds...

being a libra myself, i would give up now. let's face it, you'll never settle on anything.

that said, do you have a particular favorite SY LP or image? (i guess if you did, this wouldn't be so hard..)

I always liked the scarecrow on the cover of BMR. It would make a great tattoo just sitting on it's lonesome on your forearm.

the DDN symbols, defenitely...

...with a "greater than" symbol indicating thier superiority over the led zeppelin symbols!

My feeling is that you shouldn't get one unless there's an image you feel very strongly about. That doesn't seem to be the case. Of course, I don't have any tattoos, so my opinion on this is probably not very useful.

Cheers folks, Was maybe thinking of a 'Murray Street' one (my first name is murray and its my fav SY album)....that might be a bit sad tho.

Got a few months to go so plenty of time!!

Will be sure to post pics

Get one of the op-art ish SYR covers on one shoulder. And then The Faust Tapes on the other.
