I never thought to attempt to date these photos based on Eric's tattoo.
However I have no idea when he got that tattoo.
Dave mentioned recently on Dark Matter that Eric and him got their first tattoos while on the road.
I'll need to re-listen to the podcast and see if there were any other details that might help.
I'm of the opinion that all the pics in the Paraphernalia boot were taken while on tour during the following dates.
09/17/1987 - Arlington Theater, Santa Barbara, CA
09/18/1987 - Backdoor, SDSU, San Diego, CA
09/19/1987 - Studio 25, Las Vegas, NV
09/22/1987 - Student Union Cellar, University of Arizona, Tuscon, AZ
??/??/1987 - Theatre Gallery, Dallas, TX
09/25/1987 - Arcadia Theatre, Dallas, TX
09/27/1987 - Rockefeller's, Houston, TX
09/30/1987 - Unknown Venue, Unknown City, TX
10/01/1987 - Herman's Hideaway, Denver, CO

I'm sure this date range can be narrowed down though.
