Travis Barker Got Two New Tattoos At The Same Time
Get the inside scoop on Travis Barker's tattoo session at the Long Beach Agenda Show, where he added meaningful ink to his hand and forearm.
Last week at the Long Beach Agenda Show, Travis Barker came out to support his brand Famous Stars and Straps. However, while at his booth reppin’ his signature style, he was also getting inked by two tattoo artists at the same time. California’s own Chuey Quintanar worked on Barker’s hand to depict a stylized piece that read “120%” in a similar fashion to the Misfits tattoo slightly higher up on Barker’s thumb. According to Barker’s Instagram, the piece represents going “120% all day every day.” On the other sides of things, lettering master Big Sleeps was working on Barker’s forearm to depict a graffiti style font that read “TRIGZ RIP” in honor of the fallen street artist and tattoo artist, Trigz, who was killed in Los Angeles in late 2014. With the majority of Barker’s body already covered in ink, it’s amazing that he still finds room for more, but we are stoked to see the drummer and Famous SAS founder getting such positive and commemorative pieces.
