And, for any newcomers, someone here mentioned a few months back that "Tatoo
Vampire" gets mentioned in The Talisman (by King and Peter Straub)! I dug
that book outta my dresser and found it.
Something about the heavy metal music of "Tatoo Vampire" floating along the
air, or something... May sound kinda corny, but anyone who refers to that
killer tune is tops in my book.
