Tom Waits spent a few weeks living in Ireland (mainly Kerry) with his wife before setting off on his European tour in early 1981. This interview with John Little took place in February,1981, over a bottle of Blue Nun at the South County Hotel, Dublin. (hence advert at bottom of page). Waits would return to Ireland to perform in Cork, Galway and for 3 nights at the Olympia Theatre, Dublin at the end of March.
