Tonight I will be at the Saenger Theatre for the Tom Waits concert that I was all excited about a month or two ago. Not as excited as Some People I Know, though. Because Some People I Know are at this moment wandering around downtown Mobile hoping to catch a glimpse of him.
For my part I am controlling my expectations. Somehow I just don't regard it as certain that he will give a good concert. That's based partly on hearing some bootleg concert recordings.
I just hope I don't have a problem getting in. Ticketmaster has adopted a scalper-thwarting scheme which involves photo ids and credit cards. Do I have the right card with me…? I will report tomorrow, as I know there are at least a few fellow fans who read this blog.
Here's a video for you—"Downtown Train", a little over five minutes long:
