As a shared love of Tom Waits seams to be involved in all the greatest of my friendships, I am quite keen for the person who keeps mentioning him to get in touch, I have a plan to have a tom waits fan friend on every continent.
To continue with TWO threads, i.e., Tom Waits and Celebrity sightings... I worked at this bar/coffee shop for a couple of weekends in Petaluma California. I was just helping out a friend. One particularly dead Saturday, this scruffy guy shambled in. He sat at the bar and ordered a red wine in his patented whiskey-stained voice. A red wine. Merlot to be exact. I brought the glass back to him and gushed on and on about how much a loved his music. I chattered at him incoherently for an eternity. Watching myself in horror, I was finally able to shut up. I told him the wine was on the house. He said, "No, no, no, no...let me pay for it." Which he did. I felt like a complete moron. Thank god I didn't ask for his autograph.
