Mara's Stickman

Mara, an acquaintance of my wife Melanie, struck up a conversation with her in the fall and, when it came to one of her tattoos, Melanie encouraged Mara to send me the following photo:


Music fans may or may not recognize the "Stickman," but Pearl Jam fans know it well. An icon of the band it its early days, the symbol is still recognized as a universal figure in the band's canon.

Mara told me, "My stickman looks like he’s singing Black (I know he’s technically from Alive, but I love Black too)." 


She added that, "The notes are the melody to the line: Tattooed all I see, all I am, all I’ll be..."



Thanks to Mara for sharing her cool tattoo with us on Tattoosday!
