Tattoo You

Well folks, just over a week ago me and my girlfriend decided to drive up to San Francisco and get ourselves some tattoos. For me, it's my first. I've entertained the thought of getting a tattoo for years now. Nothing big or complicated, just something small. So I decided to show my dedication to my favorite band by getting the above pictured VNV Nation logo imprinted on my right shoulder. I'm not going to lie, getting a tattoo does sting, but it wasn't as painful as I thought it was going to be. We were at Mom's Body Shop on Haight Street, a pretty good place to get a first tattoo I must say. The artist, Phil, showed me his first tattoo which was of one of his favorite bands - Devo. I have to say, even though the tattoo is covered by my sleeve 90% of the time I still feel kind of like a badass. Is it time for me to head off to the nearest biker bar?

Let no one ever doubt your enthusiasm for VNV Nation ever again.

Then again, if someday you happened to become a fan of "YNY Nation," or perhaps "VMV Nation", you could probably get that fixed up without too much trouble.
