Waits Tomorrow.
The Tom Waits show is tomorrow in Chicago and I can't wait.
The other shows on this tour have reported to be great successes and he's doing a range of material which is great.
Here's an abstract from a Atlanta concert review:
"Needless to say, [Tom's] voice isn't for everyone. But its grainy texture and peculiar expressiveness, along with [his] mysterious persona and noirish songwriting, have made this avant-garde crooner one of popular music's most adored cult figures.
"Enough people know and care about Tom Waits that his tour-opening show Tuesday night at the Tabernacle sold out in less than half an hour. He has no new record to promote, which hardly mattered. Waits rarely tours - this was his first Atlanta performance in about 30 years - and you never know when the 56-year-old artist is going to hang up his performing career and devote his life to some marginal pursuit, like junk collecting or knife throwing."
