Tom Waits, whose performance schedule in recent years has been about as active as Pete Doherty at an AA meeting, is about to make the summer a little brighter for everyone. He'll be making the rounds this year on his "Glitter and Doom" tour (now there's a guy that knows how to name a tour). 

Although his website is dark at the moment, it's been announced that you can find info there, specificallly "highlights from a press conference," this Monday at 6:00 AM EST. Till then, we'll be busying ourselves with marathon viewings of the Down By Law DVD and an iTunes playlist with Bone Machine on endless repeat.
