So maybe, 5-6 posts a week was a little optimistic, as illness took over the last week or so, but it is still my goal. This is a new week and with that comes Youtube Mondays.

This week are videos from Tom Waits’ performance on Austin City Limits. I believe this was recording on December 5, 1978 but did not air until sometime in 1979. It is one of my favorite live Waits shows and is my most favorite episode of Austin City Limits. It’s a shame they haven’t released this on DVD so we wouldn’t have to watch clips that are this poor quality.

Enjoy:
