Title: tom waits' twitter account
Post by: cutout on January 08, 2010, 05:46:01 PM

What's happening here, do you think?

http://twitter.com/tomwaits

Kind of reads like the work of an intern at his record label. Probably not him?

Looks like a collection of lyrics and interview quotes (some of which I recognize).  I remember the days when a Verified Account used to mean something.

If it was him, he would probably have more interesting things to say.

i know a session musician and he says that Tom Waits is the biggest yuppie you could meet.

confirms my dislike of all things waits imo.

I am not too familiar with Waits or his music, but my best friend LOVES him (because they are scarily similar) and when I rattled off Waits tweets my friend was able to pinpoint which interviews and songs they came from. I was a little disappointed. I am not sure why.

In every (relatively recent) interview of him I've seen or read he seems like a really charming and sweet guy.


And yeah, I doubt he uses Twitter.
