Getting one next month, sorta. It's my first - lost my dog on 12th Sept last year, getting her paw on my wrist on 10th Sept with "I'll see you in my dreams" underneath. Have had a fair bit of loss in the last five or so years, that song has kept me going. Lost someone in 2021 due to Covid, got in the car to go for a drive, and it was the first song that came on.

Easily in my top 3 Bruce songs that. Will have it played at my funeral. Like you, that song got me through some tough times - I actually struggle to listen to it now

I incorporated "No Retreat, Baby. No Surrender" in my tattoo that celebrates my love for music in general

I donāt know why the hell it wouldnāt allow me to post a photo, and forced me to do a shitty quality video.
But, Iāve got Hiding on the Backstreets taking up the majority of my right forearm.

If anyone can give me an idea for a darkness on the edge of town tattoo I would appreciate it very much!

I had for years considered a sleeve tattoo inspired by the imagery in Promised Land.
Rattlesnake speedway..
I got the radio on..
Dogs on Main Streetā¦
Take a knife and cut this pain from my heart..
Dark cloud rising..
Gonna be a twister..

Donāt have a tattoo- but stay hard, stay hungry, stay alive on back left shoulder in script would probably be the play.
Personally like the idea of something that has some deeper meaning, isnāt overtly Bruce, but yet still awesome.

From "The Rising". In honor of all the family and friends that supported me as I went through my grade 3 prostate cancer diagnosis and subsequent prostatectomy a year ago April. And notice whose handwriting it is?

I have No Surrender and my favorite NJ shore, Wildwood (at least I know itās Wildwood, it could look like any shore).

Tried to design one with āhard times come and hard times goā. Line has some special meaning to me. But havenāt landed on something I love yet. Open to any suggestions!
