Late Night Pick: Tom Waits
Another Late Show with David Letterman repeat tonight and this is the one Tom Waits was on last month which is a fine reason to watch it again. Tom had a bunch of teasers last week that led many to think a big announcment such as a tour or new album was coming. In the end, it was just a new video although the video is pretty cool, crazy, chaotic Tom Waits. Here it is, "Hell Broke Luce":
