    I used to post a lot. Then vBulletin made it impossible to follow updates to subscribed threads. Now I don't.

    He had a big problem with drinking, but by time this interviewed aired, he had *supposedly* sobered up. I also think he was definitely under the influence of something I do love the fact that he plays along with the host giving him a hard time/making fun of him though.

    Tom Waits...he just don't wanna grow up. Decades later, he's still Tom Waits.

    Sorry, I can't think of anything witty for my signature.
