If I ever got a Beatles-related tattoo (and I have no real desire to get one) it would probably be a small, subtle version of this (without the lettering, obviously):

I am getting this done next week Wednesday (30th anniversary of Johns death)  I am going to get it on my inner forearm.  It is juts going to be in black, and I am 80% sure I am going to get “We All Shine On” written under it in the similar style of Johns signature.  Other suggestions for a quote/lyric under the portrait is gladly accepted.  Has to be short thougha-hard-days-night-john-1

There's a Lennon handwriting font that might be useful to you.

I was listening to Watching The Wheels and I remembered a line I love a lot:

 

“There's no problems, only solutions”.   Sounds very self-help books though a-hard-days-night-ringo-7

 

I got a 17!!! And you know what I mean…. a-hard-days-night-paul-11

More or less what I am getting.  Each of the letters in “We all shine on” will be connected (like standard cursive writing), and will all be level. And the portrait will all be black

Good find Skye – I'd not seen that before.

I was afraid it would do that. I updated my post, but Joe's link should go to a larger copy. Thanks Joe!

I wonder if you'll be the only one there getting a John/Beatle tattoo that day? You should ask.

I've got a question about the lyrics… I assume John (or someone) typed them and then he later did some corrections??

Sounds good to me. It's on display at Hard Rock Cafe in a-city-I-couldn't-be-bothered-to-look-up-and-now-not-sure-I-can, USA(?). That's as far as my knowledge goes.

I looked at that and started crying. Anyone else get emotional when s/he sees something John touched, like original lyrics? Zig?

If I seem to act unkind, it's only me, it's not my mind that is confusing things.
