Tattoos (the ones that don't rub off with spit) served as rites of passage, indicators of tribal status and rank, symbols of religious and spiritual devotion, marks of brave acts, sexual lures and signs of fertility. Tattoos have a dark side, too, since they were used to mark outcasts, slaves and convicts. They also serve as amulets, talismans and protection against evil forces.

In the post-Hollywood era, a rock star ain't a rock star until he gets a tattoo. In fact, at times, it's more important than actual musical or singing talent.

And finally, tattoos are also pledges of love, which often outlast the relationship. Remember Johnny Depp's "Winona Forever" tattoo? Are they even on speaking terms now? Anyway Ivo's Winona happens to be Nintendo, Wii and Tri-Force. And he has the tattoos to prove it. We can only hope Ivo and Nintendo's love affair don't end like Johnny and Winona's.

The Triforce one is classy. It's not over-stated as to what it is; it's subtle, and a good design.



The other two are just tacky.

You just put some gigantic business name on yourself. I thought the kid at work was a dumbass for having a Little Devil tatoo...

Uhh, hello? Real news? Where are you?

And as for the (dare I say) "news," there are plenty of rock stars without tattoos. The only ones with tattoos are pretty much the wasted junkies that don't do ***** these days and have to live off of old dinosaurs who continue to buy their old and out of date music.



I say it again, QJ bloggers suck!
