    if there are any Borders near you, check there. My local borders got quite a few copies in.

    or just try your local indie store. I'm sure they'll have it there.

    I love your sig! I was just explaining to a friend of mine today how "Grapefruit Moon" was one of the most beautiful songs ever

    I'll try Border's tomorrow, thanks! I really wanted that Best Buy discount! This is the ridiculous thing: I fly across the country to catch him in concert BUT I want to save a few dollars shopping at Best Buy! :)

    I couldn't agree more!
    "I try my best to chug, stomp, weep, whisper, moan, wheeze, scat, blurt, rage, whine, and seduce. With my voice I can sound like a girl, the boogieman, a Theremin, a cherry bomb, a clown, a doctor, a murderer. I can be tribal. Ironic. Or disturbed. My voice is really my instrument."

    -Tom Waits

    My absolutely favorite Bastards sond is Dog Door! I mean it´s just so good, I guess one could describe it as Waits Hop.
