[Tom Waits and his new collaborator, Victrola Trumpet, enjoying a day at the seaside]
I am 95% sure this man is actually the Devil. If you travel down south and stand at the right crossroads at night, you might hear him singing.
I was excited to see David Bowie offered a role on Hannibal S2, but thought: you know what would be even better? Tom Waits. Will Graham’s got nothing on this guy for suffering — look at that face, he’s made up of nothing but hard knocks & gallows humor. Bonus: he’s so tough and stringy even Dr. H couldn’t whip up a marinade that could render him palatable — he’d have a good chance at surviving the season!
He’s not edible. He’s made of cured leather. And I’m pretty sure he’s full of nothing but whiskey and ground glass.
I actually can’t decide now whether Bowie or Waits would be the cooler option. GET ‘EM BOTH.
