So I was thinking, Tom Waits has been around for a long long time,but it seems that every one I talk to is completely oblivious to him, and I was wondering if it's the same here.So what do you think, is Tom Waits the coolest dude ever? Is he still cool?Do you even know who Tom Waits is?


do you even know what cool is?

Oh,yea. I've enjoyed and admired TW since he came on the scene. He's brilliant.

I was online ( not the virtual kind ) waiting to buy tickets at a club in Chicago he was appearing at. Tom was pan-handling the folks in line. It was hilarious. Most of the peeps in line, waiting for tickets to his show had no idea who he was.

Ya gotta love a guy who will pop a Mickey's Bigmouth while he watches his house, which he just torched, burn.

I saw Tom Waits play live at a little club in New York a looong time ago. I was at a table in the front and his entire set was amazing. I got so drunk on Jim Beam I'd never have gotten home without my girlfriend at the time propping me up and steering me along.

Ah ... those were the days.

JEFFFFFFFFF dearest, have you taken your meds today? I am asking because you don't seem to realize that no matter how manly you believe my face to be, I am still hotter and smarter and cooler than any women you have ever came CLOSE to being with or ever have any hope of being with.

Yeah, I thought he was handling his bidness, until the pussified tactic of cmail then block was used. I don't care HOW much he can bench, I can't abide that shit!

I always liked the song "Poor Edward."

Cool dude.  Not the coolest.  And certainly not as cool as a hot dj.

Quotes by Tom Waits:

"I don't get played on the radio ever.  Marcel Marceau gets more airplay than I do."

"A gentleman is someone who can play the accordion, but doesn't."

"I was born in the backseat of a Yellow Cab in a hospital zone and with the meter still running. I emerged needing a shave and shouted 'Times Square, and step on it!"

"Somebody once said I'm not a musician but a tonal engineer.  I like that. It's kind of clinical and primitive at the same time."

"Achievement is for senators and scholars. At one time I had ambitions but I had them removed by a doctor in Buffalo. It started as a cyst, it grew under my arm and I had to have new shirts made, it was awful. But I have them in a jar at home now."
