And although Kelly appeared to be the more inked of the two, Amber was very positive and enthusiastic about the concept behind Tattoosday.<br /><br />So after taking a picture of Kelly's tattoo, I turned to Amber and asked if she wanted to share as well.<br /><br />The two decided to show off their "Punx" tattoos, both inked on their wrists on the occasion of their 21st birthdays.<br /><br />According to Amber and Kelly, the "Punx" label is affiliated with the band <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transplants_%28band%29">The Transplants</a>, headed by <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lars_Frederiksen">Lars Fredrickson</a>, formerly of the band <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rancid_%28band%29">Rancid</a>. According to Kelly and Amber, it is common for fans of the band to get this tattoo as a mark of solidarity.<br /><br />They don't remember the name of the shop where they had these spur of the moment tattoos done, but they do recall that it was a place near <a href="http://www.thesanantonioriverwalk.com/default.aspx">the River Walk in San Antonio, Texas</a>.<br /><br />Thanks to Amber and Kelly for being so cool and sharing their ink with us here at Tattoosday!
