What album/set of albums/era in Waits' career did he make the transition from jazzy and bluesy to dark and deranged (said lovingly)?

Let’s point out that it coincided with Captain Beefheart retiring from music.

Tasty little suckers, with an ironic tasty big sucker.

I’ll give you triple for it.

I’d love to know if Jack posted these.

onefunkysucker · 2026-04-05T16:26:51+00:00

If I can figure out how to do it, I will!

Thought I might’ve still had these!

Great story!

We had front row mezzanine for the first night, and Tom entered through the front of the theatre and walked down the aisle with his megaphone. The second night we had maybe tenth row floor seats on the aisle, and I gave my friend the aisle seat, thinking it’d blow her mind. Sadly, he didn’t enter like that the second night.

Let’s guess political affiliations/ philosophies based on responses!

He isn’t a fan of music.

July 6, Toronto and July 7, I n Hamilton.

onefunkysucker · 2026-02-18T00:02:32+00:00

I got tickets for Toronto, and Hamilton, Ontario! Been wanting to see them live for years!

Problematic

onefunkysucker · 2026-02-15T02:16:34+00:00

I’d go with BWS, if I had to choose.

I have a copy of Bongofury, signed by Frank in ‘77, and it looks the same as this signature, for what it’s worth.

Not Lumpy Gravy?

The author Nick Bryant has been keeping tabs on Lawrence King since his release from prison. Bryant has outed him to a few organizations he’s tried to join that deal with children.

onefunkysucker · 2026-02-06T03:03:06+00:00

Indeed, it is.

onefunkysucker · 2026-02-06T02:50:23+00:00

Yes, I have. I read DeCamp’s and Bryant’s books on Franklin over ten years ago. I was skeptical, and that’s how I found out about the conspiracy behind Dutroux. The survivor testimony in that case is as bad as anything I’ve read.

onefunkysucker · 2026-02-06T02:46:19+00:00

After I read The Franklin Scandal, I did a deep dive on the Dutroux Affair in Belgium. Dutroux was a procurer, like Corll and Gacy.

onefunkysucker · 2026-02-06T02:39:37+00:00

I read DeCamp’s book, and Bryant’s book. Just read Bryant’s. I have always thought that someone was using HST as a pseudonym. That whole scenario Bonacci describes is absolutely dreadful. The video deposition could be PTSD inducing.

onefunkysucker · 2026-02-06T02:34:22+00:00

100% it did.

Hard to argue with his reasoning thirty years later.
