Heres best i can describe it, so please post what you got.
I want to get 4 bars of music tattooed on me. I dont want it straight. I want it to curve and be distorted kinda. I dont want something lame, i want a rippin groovin line or something.
Heres my bad attempt at what i was trying to do. 
Segment from a Dream Theater song. Just an example. I dig the odd time sigs and the it being a little more notey to look more filled. Its curving a bit as you see. I would really like the horizontal lines to start breaking away from eachother at the end and starting to curl and turn on their own.
If you could put a bass clef and a key at the beginning and some odd time sig and what not that would be great!
PS.....suggestions on where to get the tattoo at? |

If there is one really good place in town you will see a pattern. Then go get a few quotes and check out if the place looks clean. Ask about sterilization how inks are handled, check out the books that they have there. Ask lots of questions, shows that you are serious about it. Don't waste an artists time, book an appointment, show up 15 minutes early. drink lots of sugary fluids (orange juice is the best) and think about tipping the guy or apprentice if there is one. Remember, a cheep tattoo isn't good and a good tattoo isn't cheap.

on the contrary, I very regularly compose my speech in this manner. Mostly because I am the epitome of a pretentious bastard whom employs superfluous polysyllabetic diction in order to be perceived as inordinately intelligent.
