Tom Waits is going on tour! And he's even coming to my city! Link goes to a Youtube video of his press conference. →[More:] Last time I flew to Asheville to see him. This time I'm going to figure out who I have to kill to be front and center. And kill whoever that is.

Full schedule of dates at tomwaits.com.

Huh, two Tom Waits related posts from me in two days. I swear I'm not on the guy's street teem.

Wow, looks like he may be ending his tour here, unless he adds more dates later. Cool!

No west coast dates at all? Goddammit, Tom, YOU LIVE HERE! Why punish your Californian brethren????

He'll probably play when he gets back or before he leaves the continent.

Aww, man, I want to go see him again, but it ain't gonna happen. Why tour? There's no album coming out.

Holy shit! He's playing Birmingham July 3! At the BESTEST VENUE EVAR.

Squee!

He's not coming to Chicago. I'm soooo sad. I did get to see him last time he was here, and it was one of the best shows I've ever been to.

I'm with you, danf, let's get him to Portland please. And not tell anyone until we've got tickets.

I'm jealous of all you upthread who may get to go :)

This is the best news ever. He's coming to Dallas the day before my birthday. I've already called the SO to tell her that she need not sweat what to get me.

Greatness. Thanks for posting this!
