Tom Waits Announces Extended Tour


Videos by American Songwriter

Renowned singer/songwriter Tom Waits recently announced an international tour slated to start in June. The “Glitter and Doom” Tour was announced on Waits’ website with a fake press conference video, a move characteristic of Waits’ sarcasm and cleverness. The tour initially included shows only in the United States, but yesterday Waits and company announced a string of fifteen European dates taking the tour through August.

What can fans expect on this tour? As if “glitter” and “doom” weren’t enough of a draw, Waits promises to play songs he’s “never attempted outside the studio.” And who knows, maybe Scarlett Johansson herself will make an appearance in support of her new album of Tom Waits covers. For all of you true Waits fans out there, we’ll be crossing our fingers that she doesn’t.
