DP. My best friend is a guy named Dave. My name is Patrick. We both got these when we were 18 years old. We had been best friends since first grade. We got the tattoos and then later realized DP holds a different meaning, which is on both of our backs. It’s a good story.
This is a picture of Tom Waits with a trumpet. My favorite song is “Tango till they’re sore.” It has a fantastic discordant trumpet sound. It is a picture of Tom hanging in a tree in silhouette that I love.
Peggy Rubio, I got this for my mom. She passed away when I was 20 years old. The cross is a Celtic cross. My mom was Catholic, so there was some meaning there.
Three Sevens and a Horseshoe. It was done by a guy apprenticing. I got it done in his bedroom when I was just a little over 18. It is very poorly done. It’s got blowouts all over the place. It’s raised it crazy. It’s an incredible story, and I helped a guy out who was just getting started in tattooing.
The little green guy on my leg is a drawing I did. I got it right after I got divorced—a gift to myself of something I like to do for me. Once I was out of that horrible relationship, I started drawing again, which I had not done in years. It was one of the first things I had loved that I had done. So I got it done on myself.
