Welcome to The Underground
"I am proud that night after night and album after album, a mass of humanity I now refer to lovingly as the pop underground, come together and sing. Whether it's in theaters and concert venues around the world, in the privacy of our own homes or the constantly shifting landscape of social media, we are a scrappy tribe and we stand for something: Music that is found, shared and cared for despite access to traditional outlets; music that lives virally and through word of mouth; music that tells a story that people want to retell." - Andrew McMahon

I got this back in February. I had Andrew write it for me after the show at The Chance in Poughkeepsie, NY.

I've posted these in a million different places, but why not?
Not to be a hipster or anything, but it's interesting to see how many tattoos in Andrew's handwriting have popped up over the past 3 years. When I got my first one, I didn't know any other fans who had done it before... now it seems like everyone does it.

Love all these! I have zero tattoos so far but am planning some for when I have the cash and the courage.

Speaking of tattoos in Andrew's handwriting, has he ever said whether his "the river is everywhere" tattoo is in his own handwriting? It looks like it, but he seems to mostly do all caps now so it's hard to tell.

These are all so beautiful.

I've been playing around with the idea for years and I'm probably too much of a wimp to ever get them done, but I would love to have "there's peace for every pound of strength" with the asterisk and "stronger than yesterday" with the Britney heart on the inner sides of my feet.

I want more.. But I am not sure what to even do with it. So many lyrics, so many choices... I kinda wanna finish sleeving out the arm that has the Caves lyric on it. I know I definitely want the asterisk maybe on my shoulder. I was thinking maybe a Katie lyric...

I got it done on the Venice Boardwalk the week I was in California for the last Jack's Mannequin concert. I got it done at the closest tattoo shop to the shot on the boardwalk where the cover of Everything in Transit is based off of. My best friend got the same one in the same spot. It's so hard to explain to people how much this little asterisk means to me (but, really pretty much no one understands) but I figure you guys will totally get it.

Talking about the asterisk...got this one done almost two weeks ago. It's a reminder to fight and never lose hope.

Does anyone have a good photo of the upside down heart from the North album? I'm thinking of getting it tattooed when I see Andrew in late June.
