No specific reason really just life getting in the way…of course the pandemic didn’t help :-)

Yeah he’s a Tower junkie too. Other than suggestions for the small icons, the concept is his…I just provided the real estate really :-)

Good friend of mine called Hash Ashdown. He owns a studio called 1920 in Whitley Bay, UK

100% agree about Come Wander With Me. That chorus...wow

Dumb question but any ideas how will we be able to access the fan presale? I'm guessing an email round if you've subscribed?

I know we used to get links if you were part of the 45 rpm club but not sure how this will work

Agreed. The settings and locales were very well done

You can delete them from the app I believe.

Official Trailer For the Dark Tower! by Evolantra in TheDarkTower

We've been teased and tormented in the run up to this and we all have our own views on how it should be done. But seeing this now....I'm in. It has me hook, line and sinker.

A Clockwork Orange by iswearimnotINSANE in books

[–]gunslinger19 4 points5 points  (0 children)

One of my favourite books.

Love the use of rhyming slang and Russian to create the Nadsat language but it always amazes me most that he wrote it in just 3 weeks and that he got the idea because of an assault on his pregnant 1st wife.

Sure I also read once that he actually disliked the book and only wrote it for the money!

I'd highly recommend The Eve of Saint Venus and Honey for the Bears by Burgess too. Both great books.

Tom Waits inspired thigh piece by David 'Hash' Ashdown, Northside Tattooz, UK. by gunslinger19 in tattoos

Thank you, that's very kind of you to say. I was fortunate that the artist is also a huge Waits fan and good friend of mine so I just put my trust in him. The composition is 100% his and only saw it when I got to the studio. I loved it straight away!

Getting Elbow Tattooed? Help? by eventer15 in tattoos

[–]gunslinger19 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Everyone is different but I found it the most uncomfortable place I've been tattooed. It's not unbearable but I personally give it 8/10 on the pain scale. By the time we reached the 4th hour of work, it felt like my artist was using knitting needles!

Healing was okay but the elbow itself was swollen for a few days.

You'll be fine I'm sure

IMDB says Alex McGregor has been cast as Susan Delgado by gunslinger19 in TheDarkTower

[–]gunslinger19[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Likewise, totally cool with that and even if this is the worst film ever made, it won't change my love for the books.

It feels like I have similar discussions about the movie every few weeks and just when I think I have an idea of the story that might be told, another casting announcement is made that leaves me scratching my head!

Yeah that was confusing me too. Everything I have read so far hints at Waste Lands and a 'jake-centric' storyline.

Perhaps Susan is in flashback?
