Rebellion/piercings and tattoos

I was never a massive fan of tattoo's till I started watching Miami Ink on Discovery Real time which is all about tattoo's and it is amazing!

Still don't think I'd actually get one but it does show a whole other side to tattoo's. Think in a dreamland I'd like a rainbow ending in a pot of gold don't know where I'd put it tho?

I don't mind discreet tattoo's on men but wouldn't be instantly attracted to man covered in tattoo's that would be very off-putting to me. Piercings too, I have my ears pierced in the normal place and once in the top of my right ear but again wouldn't be instantly attracted to a man covered in piercings, I think that would put me off too. I certainly couldn't ever take him home, my mum would have a fit!!! lol

I think someone else has said it, but I don't like colour tattoos at all. Small, plain black tattoos are okay though, on some people and in the right place. I think that somewhere 'hidden' is much better, personally, I don't think it's something that I'd want to be visible all the time if I were to get one.

But I won't ever get one, because the words my friend said to me after she had hers done were "Don't ever have a tattoo, that was the most painful thing ever." Saying that, she wants another one now!

Right, now, back to me!! :P I'm still deciding where to have my next ear peircing. I quite like the look of the rook (I think that's what it's called, it says 'Inner ridge') in this picture. http://www.body-piercing.co.uk/800by600/access_pictures/piercings/inner-ridge-&-tragus2.jpg It looks like it could be quite painful though. :(

One final thought from me on tattoos: ever seen an old person with them? They move and sag and change with the elasticity of the skin (as well as fading)... What once might have been a beautiful motif probably won't be by then - and the thought of burning it off with a laser doesn't really appeal to me. I've said it before, but each to their own I guess...

Did they numb it beforehand? I had the top of my ear peirced they numbed it with some sort of freezing spray stuff and it didn't hurt at all. I didn't even realise when he had done it, I could just feel him tugging on my ear and was waiting for the pain to start when he told me it was all done! :)

I had my left ear peirced because I usually sleep on my right side, but for a few weeks afterwards I kept on waking up and I was lying on my left side. I never sleep on my left side, it was weird!

Ha that's kinda like me Bexy. When I got my eyebrow pierced I got the left one done,cause I always sleep on my right but then as soon as I got it done,I found more comfort lying on my left side! Just paranoid about it getting ripped or pulled in my sleep,but no my body decides to feel more at comfort on the piercing side ha ha

One of my mates got the skin on their wrist pierced, it's just asking to be snagged on something.

My friend had an anti eyebrow [ http://viewmorepics.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=viewImage&friendID=61550648&albumID=0&imageID=3622735 ] and it got ripped out by some drunk guy waving his arms about, she's got quite a nasty scar there now but want's it re-done, it's gonna hurt so much more if she does.

i want my lip pierced

I'd say do it but I'd a "bad influence" apparently. Would you parents/work/anyone else be cool with it? If they would be then you're so lucky, took me about a year to convince my mum

Ahhh I have so much to say on this topic...

But I'm not convinced and your hopeless hearts won't stick. For the first time I know, this is now who I am.

I've never had a piercing. One of my mum's relatives had an earring ripped out while fighting with her brother as a kid, so my mum said I had to be 16 before she'd let me. It's just never really appealed to me to get anything pierced.

    • Less so with 5 Live. But with Nihal, Nicky Campbell and Mark Chapman get what you are saying.6 Music does have that with Huw Stephens, Mary Anne Hobbs, Gilles Peterson, Marc Riley and Mark Radcliffe
    • Agreed, Martha seems to quietly taken over as host of the Tuesday Bass and Big Beats show that Annie Nightingale did would be good to have some promotion to be done for her show. Agreed with this on bank holidays on a Radio 1 dance day inpaticular would be quite good to have Sarah Storey, Jaguar, Jeremiah Asiamah, Charlie Tee and Martha presenting. I always felt that in Christmas and New Year previously having Victoria Jane to do a Future Soul take over playlist.
    • To be fair to him, this week and next week he’s on his podcast tour which was arranged well before he started on R1. After that I would guess he’ll start being on everyday? 
    • It’s Jamie’s dream of a lifetime to be a full time Radio 1 presenter apparently, but he can only do it 2 or 3 days a week. 
    • Radio 1 generation meaning??  Today's 10-30 yr-olds? I doubt it. They'll still know Pete Tong though, because he is rhyming slang!
    • There was a time when everyone knew Zane Lowe or Annie Mac or Judge Jules or Dave Pearce or Annie Nightingale. Does the Radio 1 generation know the current bunch?
    • Looks like it's off to Preston! 
    • Would be nice to give more presence to the specialist shows over bank holidays. Surely the best way to promote new music credentials over anthems? As much as I accept it's very popular.
    • Peak radio 1 ! I agree with Bluestraw there was huge presence by specialist presenters then , certainly something I think radio1 could do more of now. Remember the takeover where specialist DJs would swap into main shows for a week? Or do we recall In New DJs We Trust, the competition on Chris moyles show where the winner would get a DJ set at radio 1s Ibiza weekend, and that is how Danny Howard’s radio career starters
    • Yeah. He started on R1 in the late 90's when they used do the 'Sessions in the Nations' where they used to split for Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland. He then moved to daytimes, firstly on weekends in 2003 then they replaced Mark & Lard on the mid afternoon slot in 2004.  Then he moved to late evenings as a specialist DJ.
    • Thanks for sharing that - I don't think I've seen it before. Didn't realise that Colin Murray off of Countdown and R5L used to be on R1! Several other current R2/R5L/R6M names there too.
    • 29th April has updated to show Dan back as presenter but still Nels in for Alyx on Introducing Rock. 6th May schedule has updated to show that the Radio 1 Big Weekend Shows will now be the following: 6am-10am 10am-2pm 2pm-6pm 6pm-8pm Still no presenters listed.
    • Where do we think Radio 2 in the Park will be this year? Personally I'm thinking Swindon after Scott's clue of it having many roundabouts and since Big Weekend is at Luton I can't imagine they'd go to Milton Keynes.
    • Yeah, I feel like they need a big push on Jack to cement him in his new position. But it shouldn't just be Jack, you've got Sian and Alyx for instance, who are relatively new faces.
    • Now in it's third week, the new Capital Breakfast Show seems to be settling down well and there are more of the informal, random Jordan topics appearing.  Though it is clear he wants to be seen slightly differently. It really is a very decent listen.
