spotted a couple Dark Tower shout outs while reading Revival:

Jamie's first band is called The Gunslingers before changing their name to Chrome Roses.

The Red Rocket's racing number is 19.

Anyone spot any others?

We used to call the public transit in my city "Red Rocket".

Anyway, I don't recall other DT references, but he does mention Joyland.

Well, I noticed the basics... towns of Castle Rock, 'Salem's Lot and Gates Falls are mentioned. The name of the bands... The Chrome Roses, Gunslingers...

Also, The Mellow Tiger (bar from Needful Things). Jamie's speech about life is a wheel (ka) and Joyland.
