Tom Waits will tour the western world this summer, confirming he’ll play live in Europe soon after revealing a series of US dates.
The singer said as much during a spoof press conference recorded by his label Anti- for YouTube, in which Waits claimed the tour trail was plotted in relation to the constellation Hydra and compared himself to the “magi that found the Christ child.”
He confirmed the locations of the shows on his home continent before revealing: “We are actually going to Europe - it’s the constellation Eridanus, it’s known for its wildly veering path and it’ll be controlling and dictating our route from Spain to Dublin. I’ll be giving more details as they emerge.”Here are the US dates confirmed so far:
