Hiya!

I've been lurking for a while, but finally decided to join up this week - mostly so I could show off my Ferris Wheel tattoo Smile

As you might have guessed from the title, I live in Union, NJ and spend far too much time down the shore. Always appreciated the band but wasn't a hard core fanatic until I listened to Elsie. That sent me back to American Slang, and the rest is history.

I can't wait to hear the new album, and I'm hoping against hope there might be a live show soon - before they head overseas.

Welcome fellow Gaslight fan! What inspired the Ferris Wheel tattoo among other options?

I've always loved the line - and it's such a perfect mental image. Luckily my tattoo artist agreed!

^ That's cool! Yeah, that is such a good image. I suppose being from Jersey, you'd hope the tattoo artist would maybe even like Gaslight. Although, that might be a stretch...

But, yeah, I'll have to check your tattoo pic out. Is it on a specific page?

It's over on the tattoo discussion, but here's a pic too...

Oddly, the artist who did this used to do airbrushing at the shore, so he knew exactly what I was looking for. But - he'd never heard of Gaslight!

not trying to sound like i know anything about tattoos, but that does seem to have an airbrushed quality about it!

Man, that looks sweet! Yeah, definitely has an airbrushed quality to it. Oh, and I guess the artist will have to check out Gaslight! Crazy...hopefully he's heard of Bruce Springsteen. haha

Oh, and I love that line... can't remember for the life of me what song that's from even though I've heard it probably 100 times. Sad (I'm thinking Backseat tho...?)

Hehe...he HAS heard of Springsteen. Smile

I had him color it to match the Ferris Wheel at Seaside Heights, and he did a really nice job.

And the lyric (with a minor alteration) is from Backseat...
(it was a christmas gift/promise to my sweetheart...)

And in the wild desert sun, we drove straight on through the night.
We rode a fever out of Boston.
Dreamed of California nights.
Come July, we'll ride the Ferris Wheel.
Go round and round and round.
And If you never let me go, well I will never let you down.

Ah, well that's good he's AT LEAST heard of Springsteen. Laughing

Yeah, that's cool. I had a feeling it was from Backseat. Yeah, that's such a great song!
Sounds like a really good idea for a Christmas gift for your sweetie...and a sweet tattoo as well! (Just for the record). Wink
