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.

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.

aka "The artist formerly known as Corwood Industries."
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!

No shows in the Northeast. So sad.

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.

The link above mentioned he was trying to hit places he hasn't been since the 70's. I've seen him twice in Boston (about 10 years apart), so I guess it's the southeast's and midwest's turn. He is without a doubt worth mortgaging the house to see in concert.

The artist formerly associated with cupcakes.

Which probably means no Seattle, I'm guessing.

The only time in my life I have gone to a scalper ticket agency to buy tickets was for one of his shows. It was worth every penny.
