Tom Waits has influenced my life since i saw him on pbs as. A child. An under rated master of the American experience. The fact he is not a household name is beyond me. I feel blessed that I have lived in the same world as Tom. Thank you Mr. Waits for your art, your music and your presence. Cheers!
@@Saint_Dismas true. As an American who has walked the same avenues, streets, and alleys he has spoken it holds a special place for me just as much if i had walked in Paris, Singapore, Berlin or Rome.
This album changed my life, why nobody filmed this tour with some real intent to capture Tom Waits changing peoples lives is beyond me. I love this don’t get me wrong, just not enough quality footage of such a man.
Because cameras were banned in the crowd at most, if not all of the Glitter and Doom gigs but we also noticed film cameras in the box seats. Hope one day those vids get leaked😂 or released.
This is outstanding. Pristine sound. Very REM style guerilla filmmaking which works for Tom's music. This should be put up again and again until it's recognized as official. For an artist who probably won't do a full tour ever again, this is an important document. Get Behind The Mule - utterly incredible!
People like Tom are rarities, adventuring to the edge of artistry until they up sticks and leave this earth. So keep making videos like this. Art is under constant threat, so yeah. Keep the fires burning!!
i remember tom waits playing, on record, at the bar we used to cash our checks in, orange co, late 70’s. singing about china white before most people knew what it was. we knew. we were stuck on mexican dope but loved the occasional china that hit our circles.
Thank you for this!! I still can't for the life of me understand why they never put out an official concert video, as they were filming during many of the concerts. Thank you for all the work you put into this video, it certainly brings back memories!
I recognized this extraordinary artist in the mid 80s, and had the glad to see him perform 1999 in Berlin at the Mule Variations Tour. Tom Waits shows people possibilies in music non mainstream, opening their eyes, ears and hearts to a world with more toleration, acceptation and understanding of different ways of living. Hope this magic man will be in best health as long as possible
Saw Tom with my late wife Barbara, in Edinburgh on this Tour, After 5 mins we both looked at each other and said this is sublime Best show ever seen by a long long way. It was almost Tom wasn’t there, but some early Talkie movie 🎥 In sepia. Happy Times 😊🏴☠️🎈🌈
I was there on the Sunday night , way up in the Gods/balcony /row P and it felt like I was next to the stage, he filled the place up with his energy . Such a great night and to have that memory is gold .
@@mmac4421 yes, he did We where about 20 rows on ground level, It really was extraordinary, Tom was supposed to come on stage 8:00 pm prompt. No show 8:30pm , I said oh no another diva , to Barbara, the guys in the seat adjacent, said he was from a Edinburgh paper, he had been at The show the night before, he informed me you are in for a SHOW, the crowd slow hand clapping, 8:40 , SHOW TIME. Best show ever. It was like Tom waits wasn’t even there? 😊🏴☠️🎈🌈
Circus Tom Waits Originally on "Real Gone", this is corrected to the version captured in a video from the "Glitter and Doom" tour. We put up our tent on a dark green knoll, outside of town by the train tracks and there was a seagull dump. And topping the bill was Horse Face Ethel and her 'Marvelous Pigs In Satin' We pounded our stakes in the ground all powder brown And the branches spread like scary fingers reaching We were in a pasture in Kankakee And One Eyed Myra, the queen of the galley who babysat the camel and the ostrich She looked at me squinty with her one good eye as she bottle fed an orangutan named Tripod Now how Tripod got his name is not appropriate for children And then there was Yodeling Elaine, the queen of the air She had a dollar sign medallion about as big as a dinner plate around her neck And a tiny bubble of spittle around her nostril and a little rusty tear, for she had lassoed and lost another tipsy sailor And over in the burnt yellow tent by the frozen tractor the music was like electric sugar And Zazu Bolin played 'Stavin' Chain' with Mighty Tiny on the saw And he leaned his head back with a mouth full of gold teeth And they played 'Lopsided heart' And by the time they finished the 'Moanin Low' I was wild eyed And Doctor Bliss slipped me a preparation and I fell asleep with 'Livery Stable Blues' in my ear Give me a little bit of 'Livery Stable Blues', guys. Play it nice. Play it for me and Molly 'Cause me and Molley Hooey, we drank Pruno and Koolaid And she had a tattoo gun that was, uh, well it was made out of a, a, a cassette motor and a guitar string and um, she soaked a hanky in 3 Roses and she rubbed it on the spot And she drew a rickety heart and a bent arrow and it Hurt. Like. Hell. And Funeral Wells spun Poodle Murphy on the target and he threw his hardware, Only once in Sheboygan did he miss, only once, Jesus, It took off just a miniscule piece of her ear but she never let him forget it. Women. They were doing two shows and she had a high fever and, And all that probably added to her frustration and her anxiety, her depression And Tip Little told her "Hey, if you're smart, you'll leave the bum, you'll leave the bum, you've got to leave the bum, leave the bum, leave the bum Leave the bum, leave the bum" And she said, "He came and fetched me last time I run. But I'd like to hammer this ring into a bullet, and I wish I had some whiskey and a gun" Aww, leave the bum, you gotta leave the bum, leave the bum
"Dr Bliss slipped me a preparation", one of the many lyrics that would have never happened without Tom Waits. So fertile. I agree with everyone here who wishes for greater distribution of his work, particularly his live performances. A complete original
Magnificent ❣️ one of the clowns of all time. Up there with the great Grock - which is not to diminish the profound originality of the magnificent Tom Waits👌🎈
Make It Rain is just too damn epic. Omar Torrez and all the band: just so GOOD. I don't know what live show can top this, in terms of musicianship and artistry.
All I can say is thankyou so much for putting this together. Incredible how smoothly it runs, a few different lights are the only clue it isn’t an entire concert filmed in one go. I was very lucky to see Tom the only time he came to Perth and it would never happen again…so thankyou from the bottom of my heart.
I saw him there, too--an unforgettable experience. Unlike in this compilation, he played, or rather tried valiantly to croak his way through, "Johnsburg, Illinois." It was a sweet and beautiful moment.
I’ve listened to the NPR Atlanta recording more times than I could possibly count. I even have an old iPod that I continue to keep on some kind of cruel life support because it contains the original podcast release of the recording. Having this slightly bizarre collage of video and audio is such a unique and compelling document.
I believe I am one of the biggest Tom Waits-fan in Finland. Never saw him alive, never even seen full "Big Time"-film! But this was really great experience to me, so much thanx to put this together and post it here!
A Million Thankyous to my Dearest Girlfriend Rosemary Price(less) for introducing me to Mr. Tom Waits,What A underated Musician &Performer he IS!!! Was Extremely Fortunate to see him in Sydney at the Capital Theatre before the TOFFS took it over for their musicals for the wealthy,Yes,I saw the likes of Ian Dury&The Blockheads,Iggy Pop and many more,WHAT A PITY THAT only The People With Monies CAN AFFORD THE PLACE NOW!!!!
Thanks for this superb, huge piece of art that this film is. Perfectly sincd to the best live recordings of Glitter and Doom. What a show!!. What an experience!!. I always have great fun watching it - I've watched it quite a number of times -. In addition, along with Big Time, this footage is essential to understand Tom Waits' music universe. IMO the arrangements for Ain't Goin' Down to the Well/ Lucinda , Hoist That Rag - Latino Merengue style -, Trampled Rose and Singapore are stunningly superior than the original recordings. The rest of tracks are as excellent as always. Thank you again, to Tom Waits & Kathleen Brennan, and to his musicians, as well. 🤘
Luck to see his Irish show in Dublin, Phoenix Park. It rained the entirety of the show and for "Make it Rain" water cascaded down through the centre of the Ratscellar tent. Genius at work.
Thanks very much for putting this together and posting it! I’ve been a long-time fan of Tom and have been lucky enough to catch him live a number of times over the years, including this tour (having to cross the Channel to the Grand Rex in Paris to catch him on this occasion, as he only played Scotland in the UK). Brilliant show, as ever from Tom, and nice to have this footage (along with the Glitter and Doom album) as a reminder of what a showman, performer, artist and singer he is. Again, many thanks! Nick
I was at the Grand Rex as well. Happily, I was living in London at the time so it was just a fun little jaunt to witness what was probably the best concert I've ever seen.
@@OdditiesandRarities thanks, i had to hold my camera close to my chest covertly, as security kept diving into the crowd grabbing cameras off people, threatening to take the cameras or eject punters if they didn't switch off or hand the cameras over. I wasn't gonna allow that and had to just point and shoot sort of thing. Hence the poor quality!
Looks like the art of Joe Coleman for the circus interlude. A strange and brilliant depicter of true crime and gritty, gruesome, hoboesque images. I advise you all to check out his work forthwith.
This is an outstanding piece of work. Seeing Tom in Paris in 2008 was one of the best weekends of my life. Thanks for the effort you but into bringing it back to life.
The best live performance ever. Tom Waits is my favorite artist of all time. I love every album. I hope he'll give us more sooner than later. Time is running out.
Mr. Tom Waits forever ...always far above everything/ -one arround ... my musical Super-Hero ... vote TW for President. Many thanks to the compiler/ producer of this Video - brilliant!
Seeing Björk, Tom Waits, and Martha Argerich, and a public speaking event from Werner Herzog are such massive dreams of mine.. I will likely get to do none of this - at any rate, Tom Waits is obviously a god to me. What I’d have done to have been there. This took place the year I discovered his music.
I wish I was 5 years older so I could've seen this! It would've been perfect timing but I honestly wouldn't have found out about him if that was the case. Such is life!
I have all his albums, but this one, changed me. Its got the real feeling. I'd give a whole fucking lot to be able to go back in time and experience this. He sings and speaks what were all thinking; even when we don't want to admit it. This man is a blessing. Thank you.
That's my man, favorite artist no one can hold a candle to Tom except maybe Nick Cave but really I have loved this man since 1985 and I listen to at least one Tom Waits song a day,my fandom for him should be illegal or at least on the DSM as Tom Waits Worship Disorder!
I know I was interested in who the band was for this tour, so I looked it up. Tom Waits - vocals, guitar Seth Ford-Young - upright bass, bass guitar Vincent Henry - woodwinds and harmonica Omar Torrez - guitar, banjo Casey Waits - percussion Sullivan Waits - clarinet Patrick Warren - keyboard
Quite a shame that Larry Taylor wasn't able to play bass on the European portion of this 'last' tour. Very happy that I was able to hear him backing Tom on 11 shows in 2004, 2006 & 2008 in 2 countries and 5 US states. Glad to have tour friends that I enjoyed those roadtrips with.
I was in Edinburgh both nights.. this is great, thanks for posting.. There was definitely supposed to be an official tour film, there were definitely cameras at the playhouse.. anyone know why only the album made it out ? 🤷🏻♂️
What badass music and what a discovery! I bet these kind of blues are coming to the GTAVI radiostations, i'm almost certain we are gonna get a southern blues radio station with this kind of music.
Tom Waits has influenced my life since i saw him on pbs as. A child. An under rated master of the American experience. The fact he is not a household name is beyond me. I feel blessed that I have lived in the same world as Tom. Thank you Mr. Waits for your art, your music and your presence. Cheers!
A master of human experience full stop. Not just American.
@@Saint_Dismas true. As an American who has walked the same avenues, streets, and alleys he has spoken it holds a special place for me just as much if i had walked in Paris, Singapore, Berlin or Rome.
His Howling Wolf meets Popeye persona is excruciating to many his artistic pretensions fail to convince
Honestly, I don't anyone who doesn't know who Tom Waits is...of course, I'm old.
@@Tangong I bet there are many who would only know him from that Netflix cowboy movie. Bet less know him from At play in the fields of the Lord.
This album changed my life, why nobody filmed this tour with some real intent to capture Tom Waits changing peoples lives is beyond me. I love this don’t get me wrong, just not enough quality footage of such a man.
I think there's more professional footage out there that's gonna be released eventually. 😉
I was there in Edinburgh
There were official film cameras in the box seats.
😊🏴☠️🎈🌈
oh nice
Because cameras were banned in the crowd at most, if not all of the Glitter and Doom gigs but we also noticed film cameras in the box seats. Hope one day those vids get leaked😂 or released.

This is outstanding. Pristine sound. Very REM style guerilla filmmaking which works for Tom's music. This should be put up again and again until it's recognized as official. For an artist who probably won't do a full tour ever again, this is an important document. Get Behind The Mule - utterly incredible!
People like Tom are rarities, adventuring to the edge of artistry until they up sticks and leave this earth. So keep making videos like this. Art is under constant threat, so yeah. Keep the fires burning!!
Tom Waits unique original
i remember tom waits playing, on record, at the bar we used to cash our checks in, orange co, late 70’s. singing about china white before most people knew what it was. we knew. we were stuck on mexican dope but loved the occasional china that hit our circles.
Thank you for this!! I still can't for the life of me understand why they never put out an official concert video, as they were filming during many of the concerts. Thank you for all the work you put into this video, it certainly brings back memories!
Can you imagine growing up with this guy as your dad?
🤣 🤩 👍
YEAH TOM YOU ARE THE BEST I LIKE TO LISTEN TO YOU I AM ILL AND LISTENING TO YOU COMFORTS ME
Tom Waits is an American Treasure. Unique, eclectic, haunting, wild, Uber talented. Best that he is not over exposed. Love.♥️♥️
I recognized this extraordinary artist in the mid 80s, and had the glad to see him perform 1999 in Berlin at the Mule Variations Tour.
Tom Waits shows people possibilies in music non mainstream, opening their eyes, ears and hearts to a world with more toleration, acceptation and understanding of different ways of living.

Saw Tom with my late wife Barbara, in Edinburgh on this Tour,
After 5 mins we both looked at each other and said this is sublime
Best show ever seen by a long long way.
It was almost Tom wasn’t there, but some early Talkie movie 🎥
In sepia.
Happy Times

I was there on the Sunday night , way up in the Gods/balcony /row P and it felt like I was next to the stage, he filled the place up with his energy . Such a great night and to have that memory is gold .
@@mmac4421 yes, he did
We where about 20 rows on ground level,
It really was extraordinary, Tom was supposed to come on stage 8:00 pm prompt.
No show 8:30pm , I said oh no another diva , to Barbara, the guys in the seat adjacent, said he was from a Edinburgh paper, he had been at The show the night before, he informed me you are in for a SHOW, the crowd slow hand clapping, 8:40 , SHOW TIME.
Best show ever.
It was like Tom waits wasn’t even there?
😊🏴☠️🎈🌈
This man is known to draw crowds consisting of Jerry Garcia and David Byrne...just amazing 🙏
@@alanchriston6806 I was sat very close to you that evening. Amazing show...perhaps the best I've ever seen.
I saw the Birmingham Alabama show on this tour with my late wife as well. She said I drug her along but I caught her loving it. 😊
Tom is an icon of American music . Unique. 👏🏴respect from Scotland
I MUST JUST HOLD ON TOM
Fantastique prestation de Marc Ribot ! Merci pour le partage
Tom Waits for President!

Originally on "Real Gone", this is corrected to the version captured in a video from the "Glitter and Doom" tour.
We put up our tent on a dark green knoll, outside of town by the train tracks and there was a seagull dump.
And topping the bill was Horse Face Ethel and her 'Marvelous Pigs In Satin'
We pounded our stakes in the ground all powder brown
And the branches spread like scary fingers reaching
We were in a pasture in Kankakee
And One Eyed Myra, the queen of the galley who babysat the camel and the ostrich
She looked at me squinty with her one good eye as she bottle fed an orangutan named Tripod
Now how Tripod got his name is not appropriate for children
And then there was Yodeling Elaine, the queen of the air
She had a dollar sign medallion about as big as a dinner plate around her neck
And a tiny bubble of spittle around her nostril and a little rusty tear,
for she had lassoed and lost another tipsy sailor
And over in the burnt yellow tent by the frozen tractor the music was like electric sugar
And Zazu Bolin played 'Stavin' Chain' with Mighty Tiny on the saw
And he leaned his head back with a mouth full of gold teeth
And they played 'Lopsided heart'
And by the time they finished the 'Moanin Low' I was wild eyed
And Doctor Bliss slipped me a preparation and I fell asleep with 'Livery Stable Blues' in my ear
Give me a little bit of 'Livery Stable Blues', guys. Play it nice.
Play it for me and Molly
'Cause me and Molley Hooey, we drank Pruno and Koolaid
And she had a tattoo gun that was, uh, well it was made out of a, a, a cassette motor and a guitar string
and um, she soaked a hanky in 3 Roses and she rubbed it on the spot
And she drew a rickety heart and a bent arrow and it Hurt. Like. Hell.

I just found my new favorite thang on the internets
I watched him in Paris on this tour. A mate treated me to a ticket. He said the tickets were sold out in 10 minutes.
Great concert. Great mate.
best mate.
watch him sing remembers you what life is made for
Дуже Цікавий Виконавиць ! ! Респект !
The sweat stained jacket shows how much he puts into every show. Absolute craftsmanship.
I have seen thuis tour in Paris! Wat a performer one of the greatest.
Brilliant performance by one of the world’s finest poet musicians. Definitely the heart of this boys Saturday night! Thank you!
Magnificent ❣️ one of the clowns of all time. Up there with the great Grock - which is not to diminish the profound originality of the magnificent Tom Waits👌🎈
Tom's my man, I saw him on big time tour and others. His son on drums hurts his musical beats. Still love tom

The greatest of all time
I watched this a month or so ago and just saw it got uploaded to the Tom Waits official YT. I bet you're chuffed about that!
🔥
Was there in Paris, both evenings at the Grand Rex. Unforgettable.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Tom. Is the Man! 🤌
Thank you
just like morrison and hendrix.there will never be another tom waits.

you're welcome. I liked your videos of Edinburgh on your channel 😀

One of the best God's Away on Business performances ever!
I saw him twice in one night on this tour, in Akron and Cleveland
beautiful man, my voice could 've made us brother and sister. Roll on, love!!!
Amazing! Having discovered Tom Waits too late to go to a concert this is amazing!!!
Never too late!
Keep putting these gems up PLEASE as like you I love Tom.SO all I can say is a BIG THANKYOU
Looks like the art of Joe Coleman for the circus interlude. A strange and brilliant depicter of true crime and gritty, gruesome, hoboesque images. I advise you all to check out his work forthwith.
Interspersed with imagery from 'The Imaginarium of Dr. Parnassus'. Where Tom, plays 'Old Nick'.
From the Terry Gilliam movie I think, The Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus.
WOW! Amazing work on this. I saw him twice on the "Orphans" tour, the two best shows I've ever seen. Thanks again for putting this together!
This is amazing! Thank you!
Lotta work bruh, thank you, it's awesome...
Channeling Chuck E! AWESOMENESS TIMES 100!
I've heard a little Waits and seen him in movies but this is going to have me researching his stuff. Thanks
This is an amazing project and an incredible gift to the fan community. Thank you.
I met a witch on sliver of moonlight
Brilliant! Thank you very much! 😊
Magnifique. c'est de l'art, de la joie. C'est un bonheur d'écouter cette voix trompée de BOURBON Merci
I need to see a live performance
Excellent effort putting this together! . Thank you. I did not see this tour.

My top live shows of any band or performer. Tom not only pours his soul to the show, but his guts, blood, bones and ashes too.
I have all his albums, but this one, changed me. Its got the real feeling. I'd give a whole fucking lot to be able to go back in time and experience this. He sings and speaks what were all thinking; even when we don't want to admit it. This man is a blessing. Thank you.
I was on 27th row left center orchestra at the Ambassidor theater in Chicago for this one. Second time I saw Tom. Legendary.
What a band behind Tom!!
Falling down is just incredibly well done 🎉🎈🚬💥🤯if they dont play it at my funeral,im not goin
Damn skippy. It's a gem and even better live!
Amazing! Thank you so much!
That's my man, favorite artist no one can hold a candle to Tom except maybe Nick Cave but really I have loved this man since 1985 and I listen to at least one Tom Waits song a day,my fandom for him should be illegal or at least on the DSM as Tom Waits Worship Disorder!
God's clown. Thank you for this absolute gem !
Thank you so much. you read my thoughts...I wish I had been at that concert.🥰
Thank you very much. Great effort!
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ GRACIAS TOMA WAITS
Greatest show I’ve ever been to in my life. It was a bucket list thing I never expected to cross off in my lifetime. Thanks Mom!
i was there on the last night in Dublin... amazing gig 😎🤘
Respect & Peace ☘
As Bob Dylan would say, 'You've just painted your masterpiece'. 🎬
An amazing and unique Artist!!! Thanks! 🙂😎
I know I was interested in who the band was for this tour, so I looked it up.
Tom Waits - vocals, guitar
Seth Ford-Young - upright bass, bass guitar
Vincent Henry - woodwinds and harmonica
Omar Torrez - guitar, banjo
Casey Waits - percussion
Sullivan Waits - clarinet
Patrick Warren - keyboard
Quite a shame that Larry Taylor wasn't able to play bass on the European portion of this 'last' tour. Very happy that I was able to hear him backing Tom on 11 shows in 2004, 2006 & 2008 in 2 countries and 5 US states. Glad to have tour friends that I enjoyed those roadtrips with.

What badass music and what a discovery! I bet these kind of blues are coming to the GTAVI radiostations, i'm almost certain we are gonna get a southern blues radio station with this kind of music.
Thanks for this upload. I have been looking for this on You Tube forever!
I met Tom in the Astoria park ny when he was in the movie,queens logic.
Thanks a lot for this awesome upload... Love Tom Waits, but never see him alive... Waow, he is alive & kicking !
