What a great summer for concerts in Atlanta. First The Flaming Lips and Sufjan Stevens announce they will be here in September, and now Tom Waits on August 1 at the Tabernacle.
I can’t find tickets on sale yet. I would sell a pinky to see a Tom Waits show. He hasn’t toured since 2000, when John and I drove from Philly to Boston to see him.
That reminds me. Sarah and I went to see Elton John at Bournemouth Stadium last Saturday. Absolutely fantastic.
Oh, and Leslie, he played “Tiny Dancer”. I heard the first few bars, smiled, and thought of you in a car hearing it day after day on the radio.
I’m now a big fan of “Rocket Man”.
i remain tom waits-less. it’s not fair.
