How much are Tom Waits tickets over there? In Chi-town, it's about 80 bucks a ticket, and I find it hard to spend that much for an hour's entertainment (this can also be used for the answer of "why have you never gotten a massage with happy ending?")

I got advanced tickets from the mailing list, they ended up being $91 with service charge. It really pisses me off that his tickets are always so expensive, especially since I've never spent more than 30 bucks on a show before. But he's my favorite musician, and I can't think of anyone else I'd spend that much on.

And yes, all the other shows are going to be totally anti-climatic after Waits, although I am really looking forward to Beirut (mostly because A Hawk & A Hacksaw is their opener).

I have discussed this with other people (Tom Waits, not happy endings) and i think i agreed i'd pay $500 to hear him read his laundry list.
Seriously.
For an encore he could read his shopping list. As long as he sounds in person like he does on record i'd be happy

Its TOM WAITS. He never tours. In 10 years are you going to remember $80 or are you going to remember missing Tom Waits?

I don't even want to think about the sort of stuff i'd offer to get him to tour here, especially since he hated it so much he wrote songs like 'A Pub With No Cheer' and 'Tom Traubert's Blues' about the experiance. I think 'what would i do if it would get Tom Waits here' would get into pretty scary territory.....

Kingsize Blues, Ephal Duath


You will definitely not be dissapointed on those counts. All I can say is, bang your head and raise your goddamn fist! I saw both of those bands playing to really shitty, unreceptive crowds as support acts. (flipside of course is I got front-row for both of them, got to scream in the mic at Ephel Duath and got thrown the horns personally by Kingsize Blues guitarist).

As for Wacken: so fucking awesome and fucking metal I cannot even fucking begin.

If you end up catching Vried let me know what they're like live, I picked up their album Kraft last year and it's pretty damn awesome. I'm a huge fan of Windir, so I'm glad to see the rest of the guys continuing on without Valfar.

I didn't make it to Vreid. They were in the side tent during someone like Korpiklaani. The only tent band I caught was SuidAkra, because I don't really care for Gamma Ray.

Well, self-absorbed thread bumpage: Tom Waits was titshit incredible. I had fourth-row center seats. I guess this is expected since it's the Orphans tour, but he played a ton of stuff he's never done live. The guitarist, Duke Robbilard, just can't match up to Marc Ribot on the bitier stuff like Make It Rain, Hoist That Rag, etc., but he's amazing on the bluesier stuff. And Bent Clausen played a giant dried seed pod. 'Nuff said. :)

I really want to see The Decemberists. They'll be in town on November 9th, but it's a weeknight so I'll be dead tired at work the next morning. I'll convince someone to go with me to the show anyways!

but the music sucks because the keyboards don't have the cold/mechanical sound they had but a wannabe techno sound that it's pathetic for Rammstein standars.

Houston has this feast or famine sort of deal about it - within about three weeks, there we about five good shows in town, and now nothing. The good  shows coming up are:

08/28 - X / Henry Rollins Band
08/29 - Wednesday 13
09/02 - Genitorturers
10/18 - KMFDM / Combichrist

I'm taking my dad to the first one. He has trouble getting around these days, but hell - he's who I have to thank for my music tastes.
