Coalesce Tattoo Contest

Coalesce is offering up some prizes for the folks who sport the best band-related tattoo. The details, courtesy MySpace:

“After returning from our recent string of European shows we realized that many of you have shown supreme dedication by getting Coalesce tattoos. Now we would like to say thanks and showcase all of the fans who have made Coalesce a permanent part of their lives. If you have a Coalesce tattoo, e-mail a picture to contests@relapse.com and we will upload it to our MySpace and Facebook pages in a special fan dedication section (only photos of fully healed ink will be accepted). If you don’t have one, but know someone who does, please fill them in. Best of all we will personally pick one favorite and 5 runner ups to win the following prizes:

Grand Prize (1):

1. OX T-Shirt

2. OX Poster

3. Coalesce – 2005 Hellfest Screenprinted Poster, hand numbered & autographed by designer Micah Smith (Limited to 300 copies)

4. Coalesce – OX Screenprinted Lawrence release show Poster, autographed by designer Micah Smith

2nd Prize (5)

1. Coalesce – 2005 Hellfest Screenprinted Poster, hand numbered & autographed by designer Micah Smith (Limited to 300 copies)

2. OX Poster”

Now, to those of you considering going out and getting one of the cool designs from the cover of OX done somewhere, you might want to pay careful attention to the “only photos of fully healed ink will be accepted” portion of those rules. Really, a life-size reproduction of the Functioning On Impatience artwork directly over your ribcage would be bad ass, but not really something you want to do for a t-shirt.
