Just out of curiousity, how big is he gonna be on you're back?

Fair enough getting maybe the Green Day logo, or some sort of symbol, but I wouldn't recommend getting someones face as a tattoo.

Also if its on your back no guy's is gonna want to do it doggy style while getting stared at by billy joe. could limit you in more then one way you know

Typical woman to say appearnace has nothing to do with sex:rolleyes: Anyway i strongly advise against it having seen people do the same thing. But end of the day its your body

What are peoples problem? It's as questionable as any tattoo, it's personal preference, his music means something to her or she looks up to him as a musical inspiration.

Obviously she doesn't look up to him that much, she can't even spell his name right! LOL

Another petty stab at her

Jeeze Louise, it was a joke, if she's gonna have Billie Joe's face on her back she's gonna have to be able to take a bit of stick.

So you're saying everyone should be prepared to take stick when getting a tattoo?, I think tattoo's are personal things and it's comparable to abusing someone for having big ears or something similar.

I would definitely disagree with this. They say love lasts forever….but tattoos last six months longer. That Billie Joe tattoo might be important to her now…but how about in one month? One year? One decade? Musical tastes change so much durings one's lifetime and chances are ten years down the line some other band will have become the focus of her devotion. Also tattoo's of people can often be tarnished by the personal actions of these people (im sure there are people regretting their Gary Glitter tattoo's now). Thats what makes this type of tattoo a lot more questionable.

I dont mean to be disrespectful to the girl but she does come off as being slightly immature, and now that she's got an image she likes she should really keep it for a while before commiting to this tattoo idea. I can understand the fact that a bands music can really effect someone, and maybe help them through bad times, and I can also understand how some people want to mark these points through such acts as a tattoo, but theres a lot less questionable Green Day artwork out there that she could still have a personal attatchment too which would be a safer commitment.

and you're going to be with this 'fella' for the rest of your life are you?

And remember you have a full keyboard there, don't be afraid to use it.

Just to back myself up and give an example:



Its the American Idiot heart grenade with wings kinda exploding out of it. Its not the best tattoo idea in the world but something like this can still have meaning and some less questionabilty in the future.

the more important issue could be finding a tattoo artist capable of doing such a portrait. you should be looking at books for weeks, if not months and talking to tattoo artist. u might end up with a stick man on ur back with a microphone.

portrait tattoo's look tacky as hell imo, just look at that lesbian fred durst and his tattoo of kurt kobain on his man-tit. awful tbh
