Re: 20th Anniversary Edition announced

On May 2, Ordfront+JAL will be hosting a release event for the anniversary edition at Brygghuset in Stockholm. Tickets can be bought here . I've never gone to an event like this, but I think I'll have to seriously consider it in this case (even if it means stepping pretty far outside my comfort zone...

Re: Ghosts

PART 4 AUGUST 2014 Once again they were surrounded by noise and music, once again they stood off to the side, and once again Andrea wondered what the point was. At least it was in Blackeberg this time, within walking distance from home, so it had felt like less of a commitment to come. On the stere...

I even got this in a mysterious DM: »Stenar. Käpper. Slå dom mer än du egentligen vågar. Då slutar dom.«
»Ja. Men...« I wrote back. To which I got this:
»Det... kan jag.«
:lol: What a legend.

Re: LTROI - Alternate Soundtrack

Thanks for sharing. Interesting to see another interpretation of the story music-wise, but as someone who hasn't seen any of the stage productions I can't say that any of the pieces stand out as particularly memorable-sounding to me.

Every Sunday he took the subway to Vällingby to participate in the St Thomas Church's volunteer activities and make sandwiches for the visitors, which largely consisted of people who weren't faring so we...

I...

Re: 20th Anniversary Edition announced

I like the all-red Rubik's Cube and the overall composition and mood, but I'm less keen on Eli's appearance. Think his face looks a bit too grown-up, if that makes sense. The original Swedish cover still reigns supreme IMO. When it becomes available, let us know! I foresee a coming picture of you ho...
