Tom Waits Random Cold Shots
for Foollabaisse - a ding dang counter>>>>
Brush with greatness, Hops style.
As student, did roady work, unloading truck and setting up equipment
(anything for a buck). More fun was running a follow-spot for the

Couple of cases of beer, some cheap wine, sardines and crackers, etc.
Cheesburger in Paradise on the otherhand was very demanding.
Solo act primarily, moved back and forth between piano and guitars.
I think he had a drummer with him.
Hops Barney - Last of the Red Hot Lovers ?
The after glow "She's no fun....!"
HopsDaughter commented that Dad looked older in college than he does

I have decided to buy her that car she has begged for, ...because she really needs it.
