    Hey guys.... I know everyone is mourning and everyone deals differently. I'm dealing with my pain by adding more ink to my body. I want a tattoo that has some great symbolism for suicide awareness, a lyric and something specially Chester or LP.... I thought about a glass castle but not sure how will that will look with whites and blue. So then my best friend mentioned the heart/skull half underwater on there main page and I was wondering if someone knew any meaning behind it?

    I say go for it. I've always wanted an LP tattoo, but didn't know if I'd still support the band after their tenth album or whatever. Hard to believe it's over now, but the ATS six eyed tiger seems all more appealing to me.

    I plan to get a memorial tattoo as well.

    At the moment I'm thinking about getting the 5 sided-hexagon logo in black with the 6th side filled in with red. Surrounding the logo will be the line "Standing at the end of the Final Masquerade"

    I won't get it until after Summer because I swim a lot during summers and I wouldn't be able to do that letting it heal but that's the idea in my head at the moment. If that changes who knows.

    I was thinking of maybe incorporating the purple/teal suicide awareness ribbon. I'm just not sure yet.

    I don't really want them to. Regardless, Chester's death marks the end of an era for LP.

    Cool idea. The more people that spread the suicide awareness message, in whatever way they want, the better.

    I was thinking about getting my first tattoo for a long time now and I think this might be what will finally push me to do it. I like the idea of the purple ribbon with lyrics added to it <3

    I've been thinking having a second tattoo for awhile and plan to do it this Dec. I just don't know what to put or what. I always want to get something about LP. With Chester passing, I guess a lyric will do or one from ATS art.

    I have been designing mine for 4 months now...lyrics from Burning in the Skies. I suppose now, once the needle hits my skin, it will be my own memorial tattoo for him.

    I got my tribute tattoo a couple of days ago, I wanted the words 'one more light ' because those words are not only the obvious but that song got me through a difficult time I was going through and I got the LP symbol it's simple but means a lot to me

    Yes, that's awesome. I've got mine figured out. I'm going the 10th at 6pm :) I'll be sure to post it. I still wish I knew the story behind the symbol on there page that I chose. I think I know but I could be so off.

    Finally got it ya'll. There's purple and teal around the outside that'll show up better when it's healed. Still gonna get a lyric near it but haven't decided on which yet.

    Always wanted an LP tattoo and now it just seems like I should. It's either going to be Brad's Red PRS Guitar on my left forearm or the HT Soldier on my calf like Chester had.
