Yes. But I didn't say explicitly I hated Tom Waits in this thread ... yet. I just announce that I like Frownland's music 3600 times more than him. Please don't turn a positive affirmation of Frownland's music into a negative statement about Tom Waits. Sorry I find Frownland's music by more appealing to the ear, don't hate me for it.

Tom Waits was a friend of Keith Richards, and Keith is my hero. Also I like to add that Tom Waits said some kind words for Mimi Farina because of her passing (unfortunately I can't find the quote for that now.) I think after reading his words it soften my opinion of him. Still, even with those connections to artist I like, it isn't enough to turn me into a Waits fan. I really really don't want to crash your thread with negativity.
