"Tom Tales," compiles tons of Waits' rambling, jokes and story-telling into one long stream-of-consciousness monologue. Although these snippets came from several shows, they've been stitched together so seamlessly that it sounds like a singular speech by a mad man. Waits quotes random factoids ("There are more insects in one square mile of Earth than there are people on the entire Earth"), rants about camera phones, muses on appropriate ways to approach a woman wearing a mink, and tells a joke involving a really horrendous pun of "shellfish" and "selfish."
Thank you for posting this.
