Oh yes. And the closer to the bone, the more it hurts. But you should be okay. The more it hurts, the more you'll appreciate it. The ones that really fucking hurt are areas that have large concentrations of blood vessels (i.e. neck, palms, the back of the knee, etc.). Afterwards - do what the artist tells you. They know what they're fucking talking about. And either bring a friend or get them to write the instructions down, because you'll be so jazzed off endorphins you may not remember aftercare instructions.
shoulder shouldnt hurt much..if its on the edges of the shoulderblade than it might.....it will deffinatly hurt if it is closer to the spine.........btw i got mine done......its a tribal tat going around my arm....3 1/2 hours nonstop lol.....the only time it hurt was the "underside" of the arm......but the "outside" was lil pinching sensations........good luck with the tat.....dont get nothin stupid and if u do post a pic......actually post a pic either way.
I either want a shoulder blade tattoo or one that spreads across both shoulder blades and goes across my back ... like wings, one on the left one on the right and they connect in the middle 
I dunno much about the tattoo hurting while being done ... id assume you'd feel something i jus dunno what! good luck

I've got 3 tats, mostly they don't hurt. It feels more like a good case of sunburn really. Think, a LOT of people get tats and even the pansiest of them can take the pain so it can't possibly be THAT bad.
I've got one that runs right accross the spine and over both shoulder blades. I'll be honest, it wasn't comfortable but it's bearable. If you're really concerned, have your artist stick you a little to give you an idea. He should pick an interior line so if you jump he can come back and fix it later.
The only time it really does hurt is when he's close to a nerve. When he hit the nerve on my thigh my pinky toe started twitching. It hurt at first, then it was just funny to see that toe going apeshit.
And do listen to what they say about after care. If you can, leave it exposed to the air. It'll scab over and heal faster than if you keep it covered. Listen to your artist, ask the questions BEFORE hand and be clear on what he tells you. If you forget CALL HIM and ask again.

honestly...if your worried about how much its gonna hurt...i question whether you should go get it done....i was stoked for my first...got two now...i wasnt worried about the pain i just wanted to know what it felt like...and bloody hell its gotta be one of the best feelings in the world...just puts in a zone....like pink floyd almost...personally i say the more painful a spot is the better....in the end your just that much more stoked to show that you made it through

more needles= less pain, weird huh?
what uberskippy said, and I have one on my left arm a "tribal dragon", got it for b-present from my mum =) nicenice mum i have sometimes =)
it does hurt when it gets closer to the bone, just don't be all tense..becouse it isnt that bad, and it can do so you pass out..ask for pauses if you feel that you need em, otherwise you can pass out. and the most important FOLLOW instructions.
and it is true that 3needles = less pain
and 1 needle = more pain..
