They had to cut a piece of my back out and take skin from my ankle to put over the chunk in my back...it healed up nicely but still left an ugly scar. My mom decided to let me get a tattoo to cover it, and i choose the Evanescence logo. Not only was I obsessed, and still obsessed, with the band, but the logo has always been beautiful to me. Its a symbol of Life and Death. You might think skin cancer isnt that big of a deal, but to me at the time it really was. if they wouldnt of caught it, it would of spread throughout my body, and i could be dead. This tattoo reminds me of how much life really is important to me. =] when i was 14 I had been diagnosed with having skin cancer on my back on the left shoulder.

The Evanescence logo was also my first tattoo! I love everything about it and what it represents to me..I will never regret it. It's nice to know others appreciate this band as much as I do!

While a tattoo is impossible for me due to a non-existent pain tolerance, I can totally understand your motivation behind it. Great post.

Every time I hear "My Immortal" my heart just breaks for that girl I was. Thanks for sharing your story. Evanescence has also touched my life in a dark time.

I love LOVE Evanescence. I love the lyrics. I love their tone. I love the meaning behind the lyrics; most of all. I have a tattoo myself. Just one. I would love more. The one that I have is on my lower back. Some may think bad of a tattoo, that area, or a tat in general, but to me, MY tattoo is recognized as 'freedom'. I was in a very VERY bad abusive relationship. My best friend of 20+ years, since grade school, rescued me from many MANY abusive attempts from the man I was dating. Once I was finally 'free', we decided together, that I would move away, start a new life and I would finally be safe. She helped save me. We went to a tattoo artist, picked out a tattoo, together, and to this day, I do no regret it. I write poetry and I try to express my feelings in photography, posts and art, but the one thing that I will never forget, is having a tattoo, I will never forget my freedom because it is what got me to where I am today and it has help me create my future. Sounds weird, but my tat helped me in so may ways. ? I can completely relate to you on this post. I love LOVE Evanescence. I love the lyrics. I love their tone.

My first (and only) tattoo at 18 was the Pearl Jam Alive figure from the album. It's not because I'm Pearl Jam obsessed, but it represented a band who's music and lyrics were meaningful to me... and many of my best memories involve times I was listening to their music with my friends. The other day my father told me I should be charging them for ad space lol Looks like I'm not the only one, either.. did a search on Google Images and there were at least 50 lol! I should have told my dad it could have been worse: http://www.pearljam.com/files/imagecache/user_gallery_view/n515180705_1664209_2361.jpg LOL! Total understand you on this.

I like that. You definitely put a lot of thought into what you wanted. You know the story about my first tattoo.. LOL If not here's a link, <a>Think Before you INK</a>. That's the meaning behind that.. funny. My next one I'm hoping to get by Christmas will be heart shaped angel wings with my great grandmothers name in it. She past away in 06 after Connor turned one.
