Tom Waits – Glitter and Doom Concert Experience (2008) Tom Waits 2024-03-14 | A compilation of professional footage and fan films to reconstruct an entire Tom Waits concert from his "Glitter and Doom Tour" of 2008. I used all the released soundboard audio that had footage to accompany it to make a concert film that should make a good experience of what it would have been like being in the audience.Listen To The Full Album: tomwaits.ffm.to/glitteranddoom SETLIST0:00 (Opening) - Ain't Goin' Down to the Well/ Lucinda6:09 Goin' Out West10:06 God's Away On Business13:46 Hoist That Rag20:26 Get Behind The Mule27:14 Chocolate Jesus31:34 Falling Down35:56 (Interlude) Circus41:20 Trampled Rose46:33 Singapore51:49 Jesus Gonna Be Here57:05 Cemetery Polka1:00:05 Green Grass1:03:45 Hold On1:09:24 The Part You Throw Away1:16:02 Eyeball Kid1:22:02 Dirt in the Ground1:27:34 Tom talks1:30:03 Picture in a Frame1:32:23 Innocent When You Dream1:37:15 Lost in the Harbor1:41:36 (Closing) Make It Rain The soundboard audio comes partly from Tom's "Glitter and Doom" album from 2009, and also NPR's broadcast of the soundboard of the Atlanta 2008 show from the tour.There might be more unreleased professional footage out there of this tour, so we have to hope that it is released eventually.Video compiled by @OdditiesandRarities FOLLOW TOM WAITS▶ Store: tomwaits.ffm.to/store▶ Website: http://www.tomwaits.com▶ Facebook: facebook.com/tomwaits▶ Instagram: instagram.com/tomwaits▶ Twitter: twitter.com/TomWaits▶ YouTube: youtube.com/@tomwaits▶ Spotify: https://spoti.fi/3LC1qg9▶ Apple: apple.co/3v3UGlz▶ Amazon: amzn.to/3rWIqkK#tomwaits #glitteranddoom

Tom Waits Interviews from The Beauty of The Mysterious, a Robert Wilson ARTE Documentary Tom Waits 2023-07-14 | Tom Waits Interviews from "The Beauty of The Mysterious," a Robert Wilson ARTE DocumentaryWatch the full video: youtu.be/BxvRUBqV3joTom Waits sat down for a rare interview to talk about the stage director Robert Wilson in the recent French/German ARTE documentary; "The Beauty of the Mysterious".Waits has collaborated with Wilson in three theatre plays; The Black Rider (1990), Alice (1992) and Woyzeck (2000). This interview is a retrospective on that collaboration.Waits wrote the music for these plays and later featured some of the music in arrangements recorded for the studio albums; The Black Rider (1993) (from the play of the same name), Alice (2002) (from the play of the same name) and Blood Money (2002) (from the play Woyzeck). About "The Beauty of The Mysterious":"We look back at more than half a century of mysterious artistic creation while trying to crack a unique artistic code. Why are people moved to tears when Robert “Bob” Wilson puts minimalistic petrol pumps into a production of Shakespeare’s sonnets? Why does merciless repetition change our understanding of something? Together with Tom Waits, Willem Dafoe or Marina Abramović we trace back our own experience of Bob’s art. Is it true what Philipp Glass the collaborator of the milestone piece “Einstein on the Beach” laughingly and with apparent pleasure exclaims “what does it mean? It doesn’t mean anything!”?"Credits:Director – Carl von KarstedtProducer – Lucie TamboriniProducer – Maria WillerProducer – Bernhard von HülsenEditor – Nina MühlenkampEditor – Imke KoseckDoP – Christoph ValentienWriter – Carl von KarstedtFOLLOW TOM WAITS▶ Store: tomwaits.ffm.to/store▶ Website: http://www.tomwaits.com▶ Facebook: facebook.com/tomwaits▶ Instagram: instagram.com/tomwaits▶ Twitter: twitter.com/TomWaits▶ YouTube: youtube.com/@tomwaits▶ Spotify: https://spoti.fi/3LC1qg9▶ Apple: apple.co/3v3UGlz▶ Amazon: amzn.to/3rWIqkK#tomwaits

Purchase & Stream:: tomwaits.ffm.to/foreignaffairs Listen To The Full Album: http://bit.ly/2Ts38I2LYRICSLicorice tattoo turned a gun metal blueScrawled across the shoulders of a dying townTook the one eyed jacks across the railroad tracksAnd the scar on its belly pulled a stranger passing throughHe's a juvenile delinquent never learned how to behaveBut the cops would never think to look in Burma-ShaveAnd the road was like a ribbon and the moon was like a boneHe didn't seem to be like any guy she'd ever knownHe kind of looked like Farley Granger with his hair slicked backShe says I'm a sucker for a fella in a cowboy hatHow far are you going?Said Depends on what you meanHe says I'm only stopping here to get some gasolineI guess I'm going thataway just as long as it's pavedAnd I guess you'd say I'm on my way to Burma ShaveAnd with her knees up on the glove compartmentShe took out her barrettes and her hair spilled out like root beerAnd she popped her gum and arched her backHell Marysville ain't nothing but a wide spot in the roadSome nights my heart pounds like thunderDon't know why it don't explodeCause everyone in this stinking town's got one foot in the graveAnd I'd rather take my chances out in Burma ShavePresley's what I go by why don't you change the stationsCount the grain elevators in the rearview mirrorShe said mister anywhere you point this thingIt got to beat the hell out of the stingOf going to bed with every dream that dies here every morninAnd so drill me a hole with a barber poleAnd I'm jumping my parole just like a fugitive tonightWhy don't you have another swig and pass that car if you're so braveI wanna get there before the sun comes up in Burma ShaveAnd the spider web crack and the mustang screamedThe smoke from the tires and the twisted machineJust a nickel's worth of dreams and every wishbone that they savedLie swindled from them on the way to Burma ShaveAnd the sun hit the derrick and cast a bat wing shadowUp against the car door on the shotgun sideAnd when they pulled her from the wreckYou know she still had on her shadesThey say that dreams are growing wildJust this sideOf Burma Shave▶ Store: tomwaits.ffm.to/store▶ Website: http://www.tomwaits.com▶ Facebook: facebook.com/tomwaits▶ Instagram: instagram.com/tomwaits▶ Twitter: twitter.com/TomWaits▶ Spotify: https://spoti.fi/3LC1qg9▶ Apple: apple.co/3v3UGlz▶ Amazon: amzn.to/3rWIqkK#tomwaits #foreignaffairs
