kidsmoke Posted May 11, 2018 Share Posted May 11, 2018 Now I'm not really a tattoo person myself, though I can admire them on other people...just not my particular thing. But I was thinking the other day about tattoos that are expressions or phrases, and I was wondering what bit of Jeff's lyrics I would choose if I were to have a Wilco-inspired tattoo done. So many spring to mind...that boy can really turn a phrase! I haven't decided on my imaginary tattoo yet, though I'm leaning toward "Exactly what do you want me to be?" So my question to you all out there in WilcoLand is this: If you got a tattoo of a phrase from Wilco's lyrics, what phrase would it be? Where would you put it? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Chez Posted May 11, 2018 Share Posted May 11, 2018 "What you once were isn't what you want to be -- anymore." It would likely be a neck tattoo . Quote Link to post Share on other sites
lost highway Posted May 11, 2018 Share Posted May 11, 2018 "What you once were isn't what you want to be -- anymore." It would likely be a neck tattoo . That would wrap all the way around! I'd get a humming bird with "Remember to remember me" in Old English below it and the initials of one of my dead homies. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Robby Posted May 11, 2018 Share Posted May 11, 2018 I don't like tattoos either but mine would be: "Outside, I look lived in" and, because of the saying, it would probably be appropriate anywhere on my body, particularly my stomach. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

tinnitus photography Posted May 14, 2018 Share Posted May 14, 2018 i was thinking of getting one but haven't pulled the trigger yet... at age 52, it's probably too late however, personally i'd never get any sort of text in a tattoo. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

kidsmoke Posted May 15, 2018 Author Share Posted May 15, 2018 This new line might make a sweet tattoo:"Wouldn't you rather live on an ocean of guitars?" Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Mizzy Posted May 15, 2018 Share Posted May 15, 2018 I've got a Theologians tattoo on my arm. Wilco fans often "get it" right away. The rest of the general public thinks I'm a big fan of Pac-Man. Cherry Ghost. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
