what are you getting Mike?
Well I'm a big fan of Warren Zevon's music.........
In 1978, on the album "Excitable Boy", the great song "Werewolves of London" made it's first appearance. I was a huge fan of macabre movies as a kid and werewolves and vampires in particular. The song was an instant hit in the funny, warped mind of an 18 year old Mikekoz.
As the years have passed, that song has remained one of my favorites.... really a constant in my life in many ways. Well about 6 years ago my son Kody, who really LOVES music asked if he could listen to my "Color of Money" soundtrack. I had forgotten that this song was on the soundtrack and when it began playing my then 6 year old son fell in love with it. He's been howlin' it ever since.
Then about a year or so back he played it for my daughter.....and she fell in love with it. It's been a constant in our house and on all the MP3 players since.
I've been wanting to get a tattoo for my kids that my they could really enjoy and know that I did for them...... something besides their names.
So... I'm having the Werewolf of London tattoed on me....... complete with the "Chinese menu in his hand" and his "perfect" hair.
I know my artist is going to have some fun with this and I can't wait to see the artwork. I've given her total artistic license.
My kids know I'm getting a new tat but I told them it will be a surprise............
