| We're
gonna talk about tattoo. How did you came to tattoo ?
The
first one I got is the big deamon on my chest. That's my first one.
.................................................
Where did you did it ?
This
guy in New Jersey Chancy Gorman did it. And then as time went buy,
I started to get tattoed from that girl in New York Andrea, she did
80% of my tattoos. And now I got little tattoo that I did on tour. I
just got a tattoo for my son, he's seven month old. "Baby Evan",
I got it made in Italy a couple weeks ago.
...................................................
The last tattoos that I got were like California when we toured
the west coast.
It says "25 Ta Life Cali Tour 03". I also got this last year.
"Strasbourg
France" when we toured here.
................................................
I also
got "Poland 2001" from a tour also.
..................................................
Among all your tattoos, is there one that
you prefer in particular ?
For
me it's like one tattoo. But of course my tour tattoos are very special
ones. It reminds me of travelling. The one for my son is very special
for me. I got the "Straight Edge" tattoos that matter also.
I got one for my father too, the year he's born, the year he passed
away. The tattoos that have one meaning are more important to me rather
than those which are just pictures.
How
will you do for the next tattoo ?
I got
a little spot here, right on my hanckle. I got some very little room
left.
And
after ? Are you gonna ta ttoo other people ?
No,
I love tattoo but that's not my thing. To me, it's very talenting to
be able to do that.
Is
there a tattoist that impress you ?
When
I was young I really like Guy Anderson and Paul Booth are really good
artists. But Andrea an Sacha really gave me the tattoo that I wanted.
They did
a really nice job.
Every
musician who's been asked this question, talked about Paul Booth.
Yeah.
But everybody asked me: "Rick, did you get tattooed from paul Booth
cause I'm a friend of him". But the girl who did most of my tattoo
Andra,
she's got the same style. Very dark, you know the black tattoo.
How
many hours do you think it has requiered to do all of yours ?
At least
maybe 350 hours. Lot's of ours.
