Oooh. Good find, indeed.

I finally got to see him last year on his Orphans tour.

Tom Waits is godlike.

Rumor has it he's starring in the next Terry Gilliam movie.

The Retropolitan: Thanks for that info. I had no idea. I loved his bit role in The Fisher King.

Listening to his Orphans collection now.

Blissfully Wed: I'm horribly jealous. I've never seen him live (unless you count having seen his now-unavailable concert film, Big Time, in theaters when it came out.

Retropolitan: Seeing as I love both of those guys, that can only be a good thing. Have you seen Down By Law? Waits was great in that film.

Miss Syl added:

Also, I guess I should mention in case it's not obvious, I was trying to point out that the percussion for both those songs is eerily similar. I know Iggy must have watched a lot of cartoons in his day...
