I got the heart and dagger in black and grey on my back about a week before Richie left the tour.

I'd wanted a Bon Jovi related tattoo since I was 17 and I figured that, even if I were to hate everything they did from this point on, the back catalogue would always hold meaning for me. And Bon Jovi was the band that got me into music -- as in going out, seeing regular live music, and generally discovering what I was passionate about as opposed to just absorbing whatever was on the radio or TV. The concept of the heart and dagger with wings as I interpret it also means something to me personally too.

Here my cover up I had done on Monday.
Its a take on the Bon Jovi heart and dagger with a slight twist.
3 hours of colouring happening in two weeks.

Cool - can you post a picture? I have the heart and dagger, made very plain with no roses and no band name. I have posted pictures here before but I can post another if someone wants to see it.

I dont understand people who get the superman tattoo if superman means nothing to them. Thats Jons personal hero. Nothing to do with BJ.

Here's mine. Wouldn't call it a BJ tattoo, mostly because it has to do with more than that, but it is Jon's words for sure.. ()

I have the superman logo in black. It's definitely one of my 'Bon jovi' tattoos and not a 'superman' tattoo.

A tattoo is something that means something to you. For me, this tattoo means Bon jovi. It doesn't matter what it means to anybody else. Tattoos are very personal

I don't like tattoos, mixed with the fact that I'm too much of a wimp to ever get one.

Some of these look pretty cool though. I especially like the idea of the Faith one. Remember the story Jon told where a fan pulled down her pants and she had a tattoo of Jon's face on her ass?

I sure do That was a shot right after it was done a few years ago. It has mellowed some and I still love it. You can download the picture from here - just right click and save image as.

Or if you want me to email the picture to you, send me a pm here and I'll do that
