Its not so bad, I have 5. Its hard to stop after one. I will say that my first one was the least painful, probably because I expected it to hurt worse than it really did. What are you getting?

here we go. for years i have stared at this symbol. days of wondering wether i shoudl have it on my body for ever. and now i know why i love it so much. its not because of only Dave Grohl, which is where i found this tat. its something much more, and its something i havent realized until now.
i remember listenin to enter sandman jumping onto my brothers bed at the "boom!" part. playing lithium at the local open mic jamming on my vintage drum set. endless nights of listening to albums, crushing beer after beer. my first concert. my first date with music playing in the car. all of this added up to today.
all of is a culmination of nirvana, foo fighters, blind melon, pearl jam, zeppelin etc. the list goes on and on. today is a happy day for me. its a day that symbolizes my love for music, my utter appreciation of the art of and soul of music. the love of my brothers inspiring me to become a musician, which is now my hobbie. dave grohl showing me that you dont need to be the best music reader or student to become a decent drummer. all that matters is whats inside, and what you feel. not what others hear when you do play, but how you feel and where that art comes from.
for me, it comes from my love of music, my brothers, and my personal goal of loving music until the day i die. and that is why i will cherrish this tattoo until the day i die.
