The fact that so many people have inaccurate music tattoos scares me on how willing people are to put random things on their bodies without even a little background check.
@@signal_ehxx as an Asian living in South America, this was a really hot topic in our community, people would send photos and images on private groups either mocking or asking if the meaning is right... It was so funny that I'm considering doing a tattoo that has the subject "asian tattoo gone wrong", like tattooing pork bun and when someone asks what it is saying that means family, strength all this other bs they want to portray lol

@@am_Nein I, too, thought it was quite beautiful actually. Too bad it was wrong. Just simply changing the position of the cleff would have been enough to make it work 😕
I have a musical tattoo, my grandfather was part of an ensemble during WWII in the camps, and I wanted the first note of his solo, but the tattoo artist said that the stave lines would have to be quite wide or they would fade into each other over time, so I opted for the name of the piece in the lettering of the time. I love it. I'm a musician too, and I'm literally alive because of music.
Yeah I think that's something people often don't think about: tattoos change over time. Colors fade, particularly watercolor type tatoos, and black becomes blurry. Yeah you can do touch ups but some will fade regardless, and some you'll need to redo every few years. So it's good to think ahead when it comes to design, and of course get a great tattoo artist!
@@Elisheval It obviously isn't my place to convince you, so I wanna make clear upfront that that's not my intention. I just wanna say that to me, the beautiful thing about CHOOSING a tattoo, willingly and with ones own idea and heart poured into it, is that it's a sign of bodily autonomy, in a way. YOU decide what you put on your body - or don't, of course! I understand your perspective, it is interesting how something can inspire such contrasting feelings.
@@katarzynadrozd8278I’m amazed he tattooed the hand crotch, usually crotch users are quiet about admitting that they use it because most professionals don’t use it, and many professional models don’t even come with a slot to put the crotch in. I’m a crotch user btw and it’s so much more comfortable imo
I JUST REALISED the guy on the thumbnail is dylan brady from 100 gecs!! Its their album cover for 10,000 gecs. (Amazing album btw) goofy ahh tattoo but theyre awesome!
Eddy said it perfectly. My tastes change so often, and I would absolutely regret something as permanent as a tattoo. Especially band logos. A lot of bands I liked a few years ago, I don’t listen to them much anymore, never mind concepts like music itself
I wanted to get the Tokio Hotel logo tattooed in the same place as Bill Kaulitz - the back of the neck. Fifteen years later, I would still celebrate it and wear it proudly if I'd gotten it, but I will not get it tattooed. To me, a huge part of tattoos is also remembering something when looking at them, even if they don't 100% reflecty current feelings anymore. It just has to be something positive, and important, ideally. Or something that holds so little emotion that it won't age badly, of course. That being said, the unfortunate part of having band tattoos, or tattoos that are linked to real people in general, is that people can be awful. And it may very well happen that ones favourite band, youtuber, artist, whoever... turn out to be just that... So I'd never get something directly referencing real people 😅
Both my tattoos reflect important phases in my life and are general enough to not be impacted by a change of taste. I only have 2 rules for getting tattooed : the tattoo has to have a personal meaning (I don’t allow myself to get something only because it’s pretty), and I need to have wanted it for at least several months so I know it’s not just a temporary idea. Hopefully, this way, I will never regret my tattoos 😁
I had a similar problem when I wanted to get a music tattoo. I couldn't decide on a band because I liked many, I didn't want someone's face oj my skin and just getting a small symbol was too boring. I ended up getting a tattoo of a blooming anatomical heart with headphones.
I have a loosely Twenty One Pilots-inspired tattoo. I purposefully designed it so that it would be very subtle and that I'd still be okay with it if I stopped listening to them.
I think it’s worth taking into account that these tattoos are creative artistic expressions on that persons body. They are specific to them and maybe they know what’s accurate but they’d rather do something personal. For example the 9/41, maybe those numbers mean something to them and they chose to incorporate them even though it’s not “correct”. Tattoos can be whatever as long as the person getting it likes it. 😊
Yeah, that was my first thought for the 9/41. I have a heartbeat tattooed on my ankle that is clearly not medically right (I met a nurse who also had a heartbeat on her ankle, but hers was perfectly accurate because she wouldn’t have it any other way ahah), I really don’t give a damn about it though because it’s not the point of the tattoo. I like it the way it is, chaotic and creative 😆
7:53 I find it funny how this says mugif, since a treble clef is a stylized G and a bass class is a stylized F. Also, I think the bassoon tattoo was the only one that was actually tastefully and well done. I think tattoos with the keys of instruments are actually pretty neat, I remember seeing a clarinet one on the clarinet subreddit a while back
I wonder if the one with the f-holes on the guy's back is a reference to Man Ray's famous picture "le Violon d'Ingres". Man Ray was a surrealist and of course made things weird on purpose.
Went into the comments to see if anyone had mentioned this! Ingres was an 18th/19th century French artist who was mostly known as a painter, but also was a skilled enough violinist that he was once in a string quartet with Paganini! "Violon d'Ingres" came to become an idiom referring to a skill that someone has that would usually be noteworthy if it weren't superseded by a different skill that they're more known for.
"Violon d'Ingres" means also a personal passion outside one's profession, an important hobby or other thing one invests time and effort on. And considering that in the Man Ray picture, the f-holes are placed on the naked body of the model Kiki de Montparnasse and the picture is named that, it certainly suggests that he, ahem, enjoyed her company.
I actually have a tattoo of a circle of fifths. It is going around the arm, and has a nice ornament of leaves and berries. Looks nice, and can be helpful when I have a brain fart. Yes, it was worth it, I love it. Also is an awesome conversation starter :) Or continuator.
I finally got my first tattoo last spring and it took me FIVE YEARS to a) decide to, and b) settle on what I wanted. Ended up going with a music tattoo myself, but after I earned my doctorate in theory. ;) As always, A+ content!
I have f holes and a treble/bass clef heart in the middle of it on my wrist. Was hoping to see a similar one judged haha. I got it a year after waking up from a coma with amnesia, the first thing I asked was “where’s my violin? Can you bring it to me?”
to me the piano one on the arm is nice, cause you know, as pianist, we would drum our fingers on any surface, including our arms, so it's nice to have keys there and you actually 'play' on the key tattoo
2:45 omg so im in marching band and we have to play for the memorial day parade but we dont usually get enough time to memorize this bigger marching piece he gives us and im in percussion so other ppl can tape the music to their drums but cymbals cant so we taped it to the back of the bell player in front of us 2 yrs in a row.
6:10 the time signature 9/41 could be a reference to the time of the announcement of the iPhone. probably messed up time signature and signature time LoL
Looking down on my fine line music tattoo, knowing my tattooer absolutely killed it. His first ever fine line tattoo, and after a year it's still so clean and readable. It from me and my brother's favorite song. Absolutely worth it!
I got a tattoo at 18 and regretted it (not music related). I still love tattoos and would get more but I do agree, waiting until you're a bit older is probably a good idea. Also, if you think these are tattoo fails, you haven't seen anything. The internet is your oyster!
I'm a heavily tattood person and Im just gonna share my thoughts. 0:56 Not horrible, but if that's your only tattoo and you dont want more its weird as hell. 1:16 Weird musical symbol collage, very chaotic and unbalanced and not in a good way. 2:20 Not bad, the music is weird but it gets a pass if whatever that music is finds importance with you. The half blank page is a bit odd unless it's unfinished. 2:55 This one's fine. I usually tell people not to get portraits because there's a huge chance it'll end up looking uncanny/wrong, but this one's ok. 3:20 This is one of those "gonna regret it in ten years" tattoos. If you're thinking about getting a tattoo just because you currently think it looks cool, that's the tattoo you're going to wish you hadn't gotten. The meaningful ones are the ones that you'll like for your whole life. 3:42 See above. Also tattoos have a tendency to fade and details often get lost or blurred over time, so I don't expect this one to age well. 4:08 I have no idea what this even is but it's not entirely dissimilar to some tattoos I have. If it has meaning, sure. This one is a maybe, i don't know. If it is a violin, I think it's a terrible design. It isn't immediately recognizable as a violin, and once you see it as a violin it looks better as an abstract. 4:31 Great! But see the comment above about details fading and this one is in a spot where that issue is even more severe than, say, the forearm. This might look like a massive smudge when they get older. 5:19 This is one of those tattoos that people get when they're in a nihilistic phase. As an tattoo, it's hella off balance and doesn't match the body. Also front of torso tattoos have a tendency to distort as people gain/lose weight and muscle, as well as age. Even worse because it's on the stomach as well as the breast. Unless this guy's physique stays exactly the same for his whole life, those lines aren't going to stay straight for very long. Absolutely terrible one. 5:49 I expect that this is just because someone thought it looked cool. I can't imagine why those four notes would be important enough to even think about tattooing. Not awful but kind of a poser thing to get tbh. 6:16 Looks pretty bad and doesn't make sense. They're lucky if this one fades. 7:23 This is just a really bad tattoo. Bad lines, uneven spacing, uneven shading. The first tattoo I ever did with a sewing needle and some pen ink looks better than this one. Shameful for too many reasons. 7:37 impending detail loss but not that bad until that point. People are going to ask what it is for sure, which is either a good or a bad thing depending on who you are. 7:55 You can sometimes tell who is creative and artistic, and who wants to be seen as creative and artistic because they think it makes them look cool. This is not something a musician would get, but it is something someone who wants the world to see them as a musician would get. Gotta love that they wussed out on the concept with the u and the i because they couldn't think of something that looked close enough. 8:15 I guess? The circle of fifths is kind of a dumb thing to get. If I had to guess, this is someone who picked up the guitar pretty recently and got really into it. I can't imagine you get this tattoo after 20 years of music experience. Looks good enough though. 8:20 A more pretentious and less aesthetically pleasing version of the previous one. Also might be perspective, but it looks like it's not even centered on his back, which is definitely what they were going for. 8:30 This guy thinks he's cool as hell. It looks bad now and it's going to look absolutely atrocious in ten years.
I have an alto clef on my left wrist, and a bird made up of a fermata, a forte F, a slur , a sharp and a crescendo for his beak on my right wrist.... I love them both.
I love these videos! I am not a musician but the ease with with Brett and Eddy converse in music is impressive! And of course I love the irreverance. ❤❤❤
Those two tattoos where they're trying to spell out "music" are actually spelling out "mugic". 😆 That clef is specifically meant to represent the letter G.

5:19 This is one of those tattoos that people get when they're in a nihilistic phase. As an tattoo, it's hella off balance and doesn't match the body. Also front of torso tattoos have a tendency to distort as people gain/lose weight and muscle, as well as age. Even worse because it's on the stomach as well as the breast. Unless this guy's physique stays exactly the same for his whole life, those lines aren't going to stay straight for very long. Absolutely terrible one.
5:49 I expect that this is just because someone thought it looked cool. I can't imagine why those four notes would be important enough to even think about tattooing. Not awful but kind of a poser thing to get tbh.
6:16 Looks pretty bad and doesn't make sense. They're lucky if this one fades.
7:23 This is just a really bad tattoo. Bad lines, uneven spacing, uneven shading. The first tattoo I ever did with a sewing needle and some pen ink looks better than this one. Shameful for too many reasons.
7:37 impending detail loss but not that bad until that point. People are going to ask what it is for sure, which is either a good or a bad thing depending on who you are.
7:55 You can sometimes tell who is creative and artistic, and who wants to be seen as creative and artistic because they think it makes them look cool. This is not something a musician would get, but it is something someone who wants the world to see them as a musician would get. Gotta love that they wussed out on the concept with the u and the i because they couldn't think of something that looked close enough.
8:15 I guess? The circle of fifths is kind of a dumb thing to get. If I had to guess, this is someone who picked up the guitar pretty recently and got really into it. I can't imagine you get this tattoo after 20 years of music experience. Looks good enough though.
8:20 A more pretentious and less aesthetically pleasing version of the previous one. Also might be perspective, but it looks like it's not even centered on his back, which is definitely what they were going for.
8:30 This guy thinks he's cool as hell. It looks bad now and it's going to look absolutely atrocious in ten years.
I can't wait to see you guys on Sunday in Denmark! .😎
2 minutes in and eddy is already flexing his perfect pitch 😃
Bummer. I was expecting you guys to debut your new tattoos at the end.
"sight read me" 😭😭😭😭
Eighth notes on the chest belongs to Dylan Brady of 100 gecs.
might get one of my favorite pieces tattooed in a couple years if i still feel like it
04:28 : "I don't know if I like it but it's my favorite one so far."
Asians as judges tbh
I think this video aged Brett 10 years
Fr
Brett saying he's too old for this is such a mood, me too Brett, me too 😂😂😂😂 i am also running out of energy
Twoset video is not complete without Brett's depressed philosophical monologue
We are looking forward to seeing you in Amsterdam Friday 22nd of March 2024. Safe travels!
gecs in twosets video? gecs going classical confirmed.
gecs are the Mozart of our time confirmed
I thought that piano one was a bunch of knife tips sticking out of the ground and I was VERY confused
Bro btw that ear tattoo was a Bach reference, crab cannon has a backwards clef symbol and has cool mirrored image voicing
7:25 Brett looks like he’s trying to tickle himself 😂
I say the next time Inkmaster has a music-themed tattoo challenge, they should invite Brett or Eddy to be guest judges.
Brett's new Life Mantra - "Was it worth it?" 🤣
I have an alto clef on my left wrist, and a bird made up of a fermata, a forte F, a slur , a sharp and a crescendo for his beak on my right wrist.... I love them both.
The bass clef in one of them had the two dots around the wrong line 😢
I noticed that too 😭
I love these videos! I am not a musician but the ease with with Brett and Eddy converse in music is impressive! And of course I love the irreverance. ❤❤❤
Not me, a completely different bassoonist, having the same concept tattooed on my forearm 👀👀👀
7:20 looks like it's covering self harm scars
Those two tattoos where they're trying to spell out "music" are actually spelling out "mugic". 😆 That clef is specifically meant to represent the letter G.
In my native language, it's called a "violin key" or a "g key"
"Make sound choices" 😂 Nice one Brett 👌🎖️
Question of the day: "was it worth it?"
You should make a merch of it
I believe the first tattoo is based on a famous Man Ray piece.
100 gecs mentioned 🗣️🗣️🗣️
WE GECCING WITH THIS ONE🗣🗣🗣❗️❗️❗️
As a Medical student, I’ve seen SOOO many bad ECG tattoos. Somehow the worst ones are those with the treble clef and the “heart life line”. Like. Lol your tattoo is either saying you’re dying or that you are about to die
