What he needs is a more socially acceptable band for his face tattoo.

I know that I for one, would have no problem hiring someone with Dave Mathews tattooed across his face.

Harry, the guy with the snake on his face, ala SCTV.

circus? really? Are you that dumb? Just think for a minute and realize that while this guy may not have a straight 9-5, his facial hair is neatly trimmed, and his eyebrows are plucked or waxed. He affords tattoo work on a regular basis, which isn't cheap all the time. I assume he is living in new york judging by the NYHC tattooed on the back of his head and NY isn't a cheap state to live in.

All of this would be a reasonable amount of circumstantial evidence to conclude that he is making a living just fine. He may be a tattooist himself or work a trade. Plenty of respectable methods of employment are available to you when you are tattooed, they just aren't going to be the "I went to college for four years and now I'm sitting behind a desk all day and can't remember the last time I broke a sweat" kind of jobs. And the crack about a tattooed man not having customer service skills....what if he is a tattooist? I'm pretty sure you have to have customer service skills to work in that industry. I know plenty of guys and girls with tattoos on their hands necks and faces that have insane customer service skills, and are quite good at their jobs.

Don't judge a book by it's cover.

mmm, nicely put GregLast.

jitensha!

i agree with everything GregLast said, but if i remember correctly, Earth Crisis Tattoo guy is european.

TRaffic Jammer

Hell, for all we know he owns his own company. Judging by appearances is so 20th century.. Play spot the tats under the white shirts in the corporate world for kicks.

helloamerican

all you guys do is talk.

oh my goodness, i was just kidding man calm down i have tattoos too on pretty much my whole left leg my chest etc...i work as an aircraft mechanic, so yeah i sweat alot. I didn't think about the tattoo artist thing that's true i just think the tattoo itself is pretty lame but that's just me.

I have 1" holes in my ears, and I'm going to be a network tech.

Geekiest blue-collar job ever?

deathhare

Not in Franklin you aint.

redfb

that's what i wanted to do but come to find out i was to much of a ****** to do it so they put me in charge of making planes safe to fly haha

peabodypride

that job's pretty sick. If I could do the last two years over again (going back to 11th grade or so) I would have gone to electrician's school.

p.s. deathhare, probably not really keeping the holes

At least it's not Nickelback

As is the notion that tattoos are 'non-conformist' or make a 'statement.'

octopus magic

I thought that was the whole point of ridin' fixed gear track bikes on the street with no brakes man... Now I can double my "DOWN WITH THE MAN" power right after I dumpster dive at the whole foods and live off *********'s waste.

315 Hardcore. next time I see Karl I'll have to show him that one. He'll laugh (and cry).

johnprolly

I think the Earth Crisis guys have seen that dude. There's a pic of him posing with them at some EU Metal / Hardcore fest in some magazine from a few years back, when his eyebrows were plucked.

Sad.

Still not as hardcore as cutting "slayer" into your forearm or chest with broken glass.

TRaffic Jammer

^^ Done better by Iggy Pop back in the day^^

Cept those folks with the Taz tat, they be hardcore... Nothing says 'I was waaaay too drunk' like a cartoon character inked on ya. So much regret surrounding the explosion of terrible ink and awful placement. I seriously can't wait for the tramp stamp wearers to become grandmas, that's gonna be some funny ****.

joetronic

"destroy the machines!!" lol

Earth Crisis ****ing slams

Sorry to all you "sensitive" hipster kids, but it had to be done. I am originally from Syracuse after-all and came of age in the 315 hardcore scene in the early 90s. I'd be amise if I didn't post this.

Street by street
Block by block
Taking it all back
The youth's immersed in poison--turn the tide counterattack
Violence against violence, let the roundups begin
A firestorm to purify the bane that society drowns in
No mercy, no exceptions, a declaration of total war
The innocents' defense is the reason it's waged for
Born addicted, beaten and neglected
Families torn apart, detroyed and abandoned
Children sell their bodies, from their high they fall to drown
Demons crazed by greed cut bystanders down
A chemically tainted welfare generation
Abslolute complete moral degeneration
Born addicted, beaten and neglected
Families torn apart, detroyed and abandoned
Children sell their bodies, from their high they fall to drown
Demons crazed by greed cut bystanders down
Corrupt politicans, corrupt enforcement, drug lords and dealers; all must fall
The helpless are crying out
We have risen to their call
A firestorm to purify.
