| One of his American dates is $82 per ticket. Thats pretty expensive for a concert on home soil.
Don't be surprised if he rips off the Europeans aswell. | | | |

| just over £40 sterlings to see Tom Waits, thats not bad, ticket prices in the US can be fairly feisty. As regards ripping off Europeans, I'd say they'll be a stark markup in ticket price between anywhere else in Europe and Ireland.
"he rips off"..would say the label and promoters would have a fair say on the price of tickets

...and surely Tom ultimately has the final say. If he suspects the promoters are taking too big a chunk and his fans are being ripped off, then at the least complain, at most threaten to not play.

Stuart Clark was on Matt Cooper talking about the tent a week or two ago - apparantly, it's been designed by Tom Waits himself, with the design based around his last album.
(Not that I've any interest in seeing the oul growler!)
