To celebrate my 41st birthday I finally decided to take the plunge and have my love for Queen immortalised in ink.......well until I snuff it anyway ;o)
I chose the Queen crest as it's almost as old as me and it was originally dreamt up by Freddie, by integrating the zodiac signs of the 4 members of the band (as I'm sure most of you know), so it feels like a fitting tribute.
Anyway, I don't think that the tattoo artist has done too bad a job (fortunately) and he says that few people stay with just the one tattoo once they start. I'm already considering having a 'little silhouette' of Freddie's one fist in the sky pose with his signature underneath......but we'll see.
Anyone else care to share their Queen related body art?

Hey, I think I actually do know you lol :)
If you are who I'm thinking of, then you may remember showing me that tattoo before - I was working at what used to be Virgin Megastores/Zavvi at the Glasgow Fort, and had been rota'd onto the tills.....you where asking me about a Queen title (oddly enough), and when I said I was a big fan of them, you showed me that. You where with a lass, and maybe wearing the yellow Celtic away top from a couple of years ago???
If that's NOT you, then someone else in Glasgow who lives near the Fort is walking about with the same tattoo on the same leg :)

I left the Fort about a year ago, was still with the shop when HMV took over, and I then tried my hand at self employment (started a wee record shop at the Forge) but it went tits up :(
Your tattoo is awesome btw, I wouldn't mind getting a similar one on my back lol
