My kids are tattoo fiends of a sort. I've always thought I might like a tattoo if I could get the Right Thing. That thing, of course, is my accordion, the Saltarelle Pastourelle III. I wasn't just looking for a generic diato tattoo, it had to by My Box. My kids found an artist who could do such a thing and, as a gift, they paid for the below tattoo. The artist is Moonman Sam Hill, in Hallowell, Maine. I'll let the work speak for itself, but I am delighted by the R. Crumb illustrative quality of it. The words are, L'Autre Diatoniste, which is also the name of ... y'know ... my CD.

That dime is there to give you a sense of scale and level of detail. That's on the inside of my forearm. Also, since everyone asks, yes, it hurt like a M*&^#r F*&^%r.Labels: Hallowell, L'Autre Diatoniste, Saltarelle, tattoo
