Gay porn star Logan McCree has the symbol tattooed in many different forms all over his body. A large symbol is tattooed on his back. I met him back in 2004 before he did porn.

Google: Logan McCree Back Tattoo

NSFW BTW......

someone asked me if i was going to get one... i was all like NO. and then she said that i do not have really anything... few mags, one shirt, and a tambourine... and i said something like "everything I love about him is in his music... that is all i need...."

(and I have 1000s of tumors all over my skin so a tattoo would be a bad idea)

This one looks pretty nice I think

To those who never got one, yes they hurt, sometimes hurt real bad especially with alot of outline by bone.

I have the symbol on my hip surrounded by roses. Unfortunately I was young when I got it done and didn't have much money to spend on a good quality tat, so I've grown to hate it lol looks like a fat blob on my hip. However, the week he passed I coincidentally had a tat consultation arranged for a completely different piece. Once it happened, I knew I had to switch gears so I'm starting a new Prince tat to cover the old. It'll be bigger and better and I'm so stoked. I actually can't wait to post the whole situation here on the org and share it with you all. I have my first session next week biggrin

From now on, 4 U I shall be wild 💜

I'm going to get one too but I'm going back and forth on whether I want lyrics and a small symbol in two different places or just the lyrics. I'm going to thoroughly think it out before I do it becauase I want it to be right.

We could have big fun 💜

this is a raw time, if I was even a tattoo guy I'd be holding off because I don't know what design or lyric would mean the most for the long term.

I would like to get one but not the symbol, I've been thinking maybe a lyric on my arm-- I just don't know what to get.... I will though...

nod Same here. Not really interested in getting his symbol, but a short lyric from him (for me) would be more meaningful...but I need time to think through how I want it.

I will forever love and miss you...my sweet Prince.

I have one on my ankle. It's the symbol in shades of purple. I got it in January for my 30th. I got it to cover a scar from an injury I had in my early 20's. I wanted to cover a painful memory with something that makes me happy.Since then I was blessed to see him twice.

I don't regret it. At all.

When I get old and grey and my grandkids ask me what it means I can tell them about this little guy who was funky as hell and then force them to listen to all my cd's (and watch them blush at the dirty music granny is listening to)

That's cute, MissRuby! Yeah, whatever I get I know I won't regret either, no matter how old I get. That's mostly the problem with tatttoos (and why I don't have any) how they'll look later or what you'll think of them later--- but with Prince, I would not be sorry. I bet the symbol on your ankle looks great! That's a good place for it..

Hey everyone, this is my first post to the ORGy but I've been a Prince fan for almost forever. Back in the 1990s, I worked as an artist at Epic MegaGames (now Epic Games) and worked on the Jazz Jackrabbit series of games. In the first episode of Jazz 2, I decided to pay homage to His Royal Purple Badness by naming it "Formerly a Prince" and I parodied the cover of Purple Rain. You can see the image here:

I'm contemplating getting this as a tattoo now seeing as it both honors my fandom and is also a piece of my personal history -- although I'm sure it'll hurt like a beast.

Dig if U will the picture of U and Marvin Gaye and the kids.

Holy crap! You've just unlocked a childhood memory. I played this game endlessly and as soon as you posted this I remembered this as clear as day. Hmmm this may have been where it all started. I blame you! :-p

If I'm remotely responsible for introducing you (or anyone else) to Prince, than my work on this earthly plane is done. biggrin

I got Purple Rain on my leg in the 80s but as I get older it's looking more like Purple Vein.

I was gonna say "...on my cock" but thought better of it.

It's not Prince. It's Lenny's mother. https://youtu.be/h0EVbKJNjKQ [Edited 5/2/16 16:43pm]

He apparently needed a better tattoo artist.

One time at a late night Paisley show a girl in the front row showed Prince her new tattoo of him. he ran back behind his keyboards, got his bible, and came back and spent a few minutes sharing some scripture with her. i took it to mean he didn't approve of tattoos. Or it could have been 'idol worship'.

That being said i am thinking of three smaller prince tattoos. the paisley park logo, the yes logo from lovesexy, and maybe a symbol.

Had mine done soon after 21 nights here in the uk, it's my profile pic. Went for a more unusual approach. If you're a Prince fan you'd know what is is (hopefully), to everyone else it's just a flower. Want to get a proper symbol now though.

he once went off on the new lighting guys who reported for their first day of work at paisley park, getting the stage and lights all ready for a new tour. "I cant concentrate with all this fire and hell up these guys' arms!" They had on their shirts given to them by their previous employer, Motley Crue. The next day they were given nice shirts with flowers all over them.
