  11. yeah … I remember …
    yeah … I remember the Small Change album… listening to it at Ritchie Hessmiller’s house around 1980. It had a great tempo for sure … but who could beat looking at Waits singing it live here almost 30 years later. My small print showed up way too many years ago.

    I was dissappointed by this version of the song . The version on Tom’s Small Change album is much better, played with a much faster tempo.

    thanks sclogse1
    missed him at the fox in st louis
    my friends said everybody was getting ed cause some dredheaded siste was singing along with the the closer “innocent when you dream” out of key from the balcony.
    Tom told the crowd to chill out and encouraged everyone to sing along.
    Step right up!

    Don’t be caught with your drawers down, don’t be caught with your drawers down…It gives you an erection, it wins the election…just remember, the large print giveth and the small print taketh away!!

    One of Tom’s all time best songs.

    I think I spent about two weeks rebuilding the poster (really from scratch) for Demon wine after finding a jpeg around 2×3 inches at 72 DPI. Now It’s a fine poster at around 20×24 inches at 300dpi. Had to do it.

    Don’t forget that the Atlanta show in 2008 is offered as an audio download from NPR radio. You may also find it at the ANTI web site.

    i’ve also idolized/been inspired by this guy for many years. i love the “old man” comment. i heard an interview with him on fresh air….he always dreamed of being like his friend’s old man (father), in plaid jacket, etc. i saw him act live in “Demon Wine” and met him after the play. he wasn’t particularly warm, but he did shake our hands cordially, growl at us, and drive off in some banged up classic car….we were well pleased and didn’t wash our hands for at least a couple hours. love him.

    The best part of this is how much it looks like he’s some guy who just wandered in off the street.
