any tom waits fans here on the buzz ????

[just_a_tree_guy]

one of my favorites . always have his songs in my head when i am in a tree for some reason . maybe because he kicks so much a$$ !!!

 

[whiz]

I used to have a cd of his. I think it was Boneyard or something. Not a huge fan, but a fan. Loved him as Renfield in Brahm Stoker's Dracula.

Another favorite.

Easily one of the more weirder videos. About par for the course for him though

You should google his dumpster bass he made from an old dumpster and some piano strings.

He's one of those singers, with John Prine, who I can sing along with and not sound worse Both are favs for musical reasons though.

They may be rough voices but they capture a very real part of humanity that no others can, kind of like Dylan.

Been a fan for some time!

I like Tom Waits too.

My favourite Eaglesmith

Sometimes this is in my head all day working trees, and that's OK.

And here is some very freaky Waits you fans might not even know.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oxLAT2U1bCc&ob=av2n

This one was used in the documentary "The Smartest Guys in the Room" which was about the Enron scandal. Very fitting.

Some people I worked with served tiome for their part in this - rightfully so. I wish the entire board and senior executive of Gas Trading at Enron would rot in prison forever. But it's just one of my fantasies that won't come true.
