Buffista Music III: The Search for Bach
There's a lady plays her fav'rite records/On the jukebox ev'ry day/All day long she plays the same old songs/And she believes the things that they say/She sings along with all the saddest songs/And she believes the stories are real/She lets the music dictate the way that she feels.

What is the source on that Tom Waits tour info, C.I.? I cannot find anything and ticketmaster gives me no love. Mostly I just want to find out how soon I can buy tickets since the Chicago date is so close.
The source is Phil Freeman, who wrote a cover article on Tom Waits for The Wire last year and is close to his publicist. I didn't see anything on the Waits website, so I'll let you know if I hear anything further.
Aha. I just found this: [link]
That was some intensive googling to get that. Whew!
Tickets for Chicago go on sale July 14th (hello b-day present!) or 15th.
Thanks for the heads up!
My pleasure, Tina.
No shows in the Northeast. So sad.

I think you are my GF in disguise, Corwood. She IMed the dates to me seconds before I read your post...
I'll never tell!
Woohoo! Tom in the southeast! He hasn't played around here since... I don't know, he hasn't played here since I've been a fan - and that's a while.
I bet he sells out the Tabernacle in about 10 seconds.
