Title: john crown with stars tattoo

I was just curious what it meant.  I should probably know this, but don't.
Thanks, Moe

John has a huge tattoo on his back of a crown(think Hallmark gold crown cards logo) with five red stars arching over it... very nice...

I read somewhere that this piece was only partially done and it was an interpretation of Picasso's anti-war piece Guernica.

Someone PLEASE, PLEASE correct me if I'm wrong. But I thought I read somewhere that the crown represented Buffalo and the stars represented John and his sisters. I don't remember where I read that or if it's true. But, if it is true I think it's a really cool representation of home and family.

I've heard that before...but also that John said it was a good guess, but not the case.  I've heard that he said when it was complete, he'd let everyone in on the meaning of it though.

That tattoo is awesome! �It's very sexy on him. �I don't know what it means though... �I guess no one really knows except John. �I bought the Crown and Star baby doll shirt off of Hot Stuff Tattoo and I love it! �It's a nice item added to my Goo collection.

That's weird that you say that.  Buffalo is the "Queen City".
