Old grizzly guts, Tom Waits, has announced the European leg of his tour, with tickets to go on sale at 9:00am on Tuesday May 27. For the UK leg, he's set to play two shows in Edinburgh, of which tickets will be available from the Ticket Hotline on +44 (0) 870 606 3424, and online from www.ticketmaster.co.uk.
Tom Waits hasn't announced anything vaguely near London* - we were pretty sure he hates the city before this, and this almost confirms it. Also, no festival dates (yet)...that would be nice, wouldn't it?

* Music Towers is well aware that this is universal karma getting revenge for the million or so tours that always come to London but consider doing a single show in Manchester as sufficient to cater for everyone living outside the M25.
