Not all of our interviews are planned. Sometimes I come to the concert to take pictures and see somebody on stage and think: “Oh yes, that’s it!”. Exactly this happened with Scott. I was at a concert of DROPKICK MURPHYS and as opener at this evening, SKINNY LISTER from UK were guest on stage. I could not take my eyes away from the amazing tattoos of the bass player. Later at this evening I got the possibility to talk with Scott and I was happy about the offer and so he agreed to be a part of the project. So, let’s look at the results of our spontaneous collaboration.

• Simone Salvatori

Shooting with this musician was one of my reasons for the trip to Rome in February this year. And I am really happy that I have done this. If you think of SPIRITUAL FRONT you get the picture of the man in a suit with his guitar. Today we have the chance to see what is hidden under the suit and I promise you will be really surprised!

Reflections of Darkness [RoD]: When did you get your first tattoo and what was it? Did it take much time until you decided to get it done?
Simone:It was during the early 90’s, I guess 92,93, it was a useless tribal tattoo, but strangely still deep black. For some reasons I moved again in the area where I used to live and where I got that tribal one, I’m surprised to see that the studio is still there, with the same sketches on the main door. Nothing changed since the 90’s. I don’t think that deciding took such long time, I just had the urge to get a tattoo, I was an adolescent I didn’t know anything about that world, but at that time tattoos were not so popular

It’s a little irritating for me that we have not many women in our project. But today we do one more step to change this. The beautiful woman and amazing piano player and composer Miss Key has agreed to answer our questions. She has enchanted me not only with her wonderful music but with her tattoos too. So, let’s have a look on them and listen to her story. But before, allow me a small tip for the people who are going to WGT: on Sunday, 4th of June, you can visit VEID.eV in Leipzig to see Miss Key together with Nina Jiers live.

Reflections of Darkness [RoD]: When did you get your first tattoo and what was it? Did it take much time until you decided to get it done?
InqUesT: At my 18 y.o. Was a tribal bracelet on the right arm. Was really special, because I was surrounded by friends. This mix of feelings cannot be forgotten. I was thinking about it during my 17’s; so was really easy to me.

Today, Sven Phalanx from SCHWARZWALD and SCHATTENSPIEL agreed to answer our questions. He fascinated me with his Edgar Allan Poe tattoo and the magic steampunk air balloon. Let's find out how he came to these ideas.

Reflections of Darkness [RoD]: When did you get your first tattoo and what was it? Did it take much time until you decided to get it done?
Sven: I have made my first tattoo when I was 18 or 19. It's a dragon on the shoulder and I got it made in the cellar by a buddy... almost a youthful folly! I have not thought about it for a long time... I found tattoos always great and as a child, I always proudly put tattoo stickers from gums on my arms.
