I know alot of us have this tattoo already...but i had to get it anyway.
I was going to get Davids name going down the side, but the guy doing my tattoo was an aprentice...and said he wasn't good with wording yet....but he said he would do it for free later on....

I would love to get it on my forearm..... I think if we would all have it somewhere on our bodies we would look like a cult or something.....

he did a really good job on your tat. aas far as draven getting one on his forearm... i don't know how many of you live within proximity of eachother but i havent ran into a single person yet that knows what the #### it is. I know people who listen to glu who aswk me if it's an ant and dont even know it's glu-related. It's not important really but damn. if one more person asks me if it's an ant im gonna... dammit.... i'm gonna do nothing and just be really mad.

What i wouldnt give to live in happy glu land whereverybody frolics and skips and eats buttercream jelly mantises...

yes its nice. why'd you pick black?? and why on your side as opposed to the midlle or your back or whatever? well it looks nice anyway.

oh yeah drine btw, yuo should have them add 'glu' in very very small print somewhere aroudn there so if anyone asks you anything just point to the letters..unless you want "god lives underwater" there... that way you wont have to tell...

Frickin sweet man... I almost got one on my shoulder a few years back. I was nicknamed "Mantis" in school by a friend who said I look like a mantis when I shoot a basketball... About 2 years before GLU released their EP and became the most kick ass band ever.

Picture the way your hand looks after you release a shot. It does kind of look like a mantis.

I am sure a great deal of people are interested in tattoos. I find them fascinating, but I am not interested in getting one of my own. For me, if I were ever to get a tatoo, it would either be SEGA or Sonic...and even that's a stretch.
