Tom Waits on the Daily Show Tonight
![]()
Tom Waits, the legendary live performer who rarely performs live, will in fact be performing on the Daily Show tonight. I am assuming this is to promote his new album, Orphans, which is a 3-CD 56-song extravaganza of old and new stuff. I hoped this would mean there would be an upcoming tour, but so far it doesn’t look like it. His last tour was in August ‘06 and went unnoticed by me, I assume due to the unfathomable choice of tour locations such as Akron, OH and Asheville, NC.
When asked about the tour locations, he responded (in a press release):
“We need to go to Tennessee to pick up some fireworks, and someone owes me money in Kentucky.”
Enough said.

What you need to do is write Tom Waits a check, and have it bounce. If he wants the money, he’ll have to come through LA :)
so i tell’s the guy, you want the money? You go GET the money! ‘Cause I don’t know where it’s at.
