Music’s second most famous tattooed drummer

Travis’ first tattoo was the word “BONES” (a nickname when he was a kid) on his leg which he got when he was 17 years old. Another notable addition is the phrase “SELF MADE” spelled out across his knuckles which he got in 2000. Some of Travis’ numerous tattoos include religious art as he says he was brought up Catholic. He has a portrait of Jesus above his left biceps, hands in prayer on the left side of his head (visible with his signature mohawk) and a Sacred Heart. He has a few tattoos that symbolize his love for cars and Cadillacs in particular - two racing flags on the side of his neck with the number 66 which symbolizes the year of his favorite Cadillac and a Cadillac emblem surrounded by mudflap girls on his chest as well as a pair of spark plugs.

Much of his body art is devoted to his love of music such as the phrase “Can I Say” which is the name of Dag Nasty’s first album, a microphone, and a boom box on his stomach for his love of breakdancing when he was growing up. He also has the word “HOPE” on his back because of the Descendents’ song and something positive after his mother’s death. He has another tribute to the Descendents on his leg - the cover art to the album, I Don’t Want To Grow Up, drumsticks and musical notes on his right arm.

Travis also makes several tributes to his family with the phrase “familia” on his arm, Japanese flowers on the back of his neck with a heart that says “Mom”, and another heart with “SHANNA” on the banner. He also has the name of his first wife, “Melissa,” just above the racing flags on the side of his neck.
