i was there too. do you have the rest of this song on video? the best part was when he 'made it rain' glitter!
also i agree with GrimmyFang. knowing you are in the same room as Tom Waits is a religious experience. God does live among us, and His name is Waits.

I, too, was at this show...and it was ABSOLUTELY amazing. I love Tom.

I'm probably the biggest fan of tom waits in san francisco...been that way since small Change got played in it's entirety on a radio station one night...Never been the same. THe guy has saved me so many times....will we ever hear In THe Coliseum or Foreign AFfairs or Empty Pockets, or Barbershop done live again? So now that you know where I'm at...buy this. Bill Barron Modern Windows Suite. IF you dig Mingus...and Monk, and seriously upfront playing..this will knock you out.

Oh wow. I saw him two nights before in Birmingham. First time I saw him and I'm still reeling. Freaking amazing.
But where's the glitter?!! :)

i lost a four hundred dollar auction for tickets for his tabernacle show two years ago. i was on the verge of tears the whole time. just his presence is a religious expirience. the only downside of seeing him is, now every show that i go to, i just think "yeah, this is alright...but i saw tom waits!"

Hell yeah man. A friend called me after the show and asked how it was, and all I can say was "....ah...."
It's the first time I've ever been speechless...
I was at this show, the man's voice is incredible live.
