Thanks for posting that Bev, I was just comin in here to do it.
Promise me you'll always remember: You're braver than you believe, stronger than you seem and smarter than you think.
A great local news report on NECN about Steve's visit to Bridgton and the connections between that town and Chester's Mill.
I posted it last night in another thread with The Colbert Report: http://www.thedarktower.org/palaver/...ead.php?t=9849
T.V. Interviews with Stephen King
I thought this would be a good idea, a thread of any random Stephen King television (or web) interviews. Its always great to hear how an author feels about their own story, from their own mouths. It's fun to hear Mr. King talk anytime, actually, with that charming Maine accent of his. I thought this would be a good video to start out with, especially for those of us going through Conan withdrawals. Its from 2005, and he's plugging the Colorado Kid.

p.s. sorry if there's already a thread like this. If there is we'll just move it on over. Thankee sai, and long days and pleasent nights.
I think this is a great idea bumbler. I think the thread will survive but it may get moved to the TV forum.
The kindness of close friends is like a warm blanket
Thanks a lot, Matt! Yeah move it wherever it should go, I wasnt sure where to put it, really.
Here's a pretty funny interview from The View. Man, Whoopi's funny, but Joy Behar is ridiculously annoying. And what's with the guy host? I thought you had to have an ol' vaginer to be a host on that show.

...I just can't say what's on my mind.....great thread idea tho'.
The answer is within
all matter is energy, all energy is GOD
Awesome interview taken about 5 months after he was hit by a van. Poor guy, he looks so emaciated (I cant help but think of him in rugged Roland garb, the way he looks in this interview). Just think how different TDT would have been had he not been struck. I'm so glad he survived. Not just because he's written a lot of great stories since, but because he's a fellow human (which this video really made apparent) and I hope for the best for all the goodns' out there.

and here's kind of a follow up on the accident interview. It's kind of long, but its a good one, and it gets a little eerie around 1:15.

Great stuff, guys. Long live the Tube!
A cool interview from mid 80's, so funny on part of it he says he made some kids cry on halloween and didn't care.

Genius idea for a thread.
It's a blast to watch these interviews, and, like stated above, hear that Maine dialect.
Elodin: "Tombs is for feckless twits who can't chew their own food. My boy's a Re'lar! He has the feck of twenty men!"
Kvothe: “Books are a poor substitute for female companionship, but they are easier to find.”
Simmon: ”It’s just ointment in case you get burned...but if you mix it with piss, it turns into candy.” Sim’s expression was deadpan. “Delicious candy.”

Thanks a lot, SigTauGimp!!
I dont know the exact date, but 2008, because he's talking about Duma Key in this other part from the same interview.

If anyone is interested, via Torrent one can grab The Colbert Report episode where King was in top quality.

Addict the children early! Here's some more great stuff from the interview you posted up there, S.T. Gimp. This is crazy 'cause I remember my mom reading dr. jeckel and mr. hyde to my brother and I when we were little. I remember it because my mom said "Oh my God" while reading it, and strong christain woman that she is, she never took lord's name in vain, and it kind of shocked me.

A cool interview. He talks a lot about short stories and novellas, and the difference between the two. That King, he's one badass bastid'.

Nice one, thebumblerinblack...have you been able to find any King interviews talking about the Dark Tower? I've searched just about everywhere, to no avail.
