BROADCAST FROM TOM WAITS MINI ORPHANS TOUR IN 2006
• In the summer of 2006, Tom Waits embarked on a short jaunt of the southern and Midwest United States. Entitled, The Orphans Tour,
Tom’s son Casey played with him in the band accompanying him. Consisting of eight shows in total, the group played in; Atlanta, GA,
Asheville, NC, Memphis, TN, Nashville, TN, Louisville, KY, Chicago, IL, Detroit, MI and Akron, OH.
• The final date of the tour, in Akron, Ohio on 13th August 2006, was perhaps the most dynamic and best loved show, and was recorded
for a simultaneous FM radio broadcast. This new release contains this broadcast in full for the first time on CD.
• In November ‘06, Waits issued Orphans: Brawlers, Bawlers & Bastards, a 54-song three-disc box set of rarities, unreleased tracks,
and new compositions. Waits described its contents as "songs that fell behind the stove while making dinner". Orphans made the top
ten in several European charts.
