Overheard at ESLCon

(And that's Evil Sexy LeonardCon, not English as a second language.)

[livejournal.com profile] cristalia: Okay, so I've pared down my list of concerts to see before I die: NIN and that's next month, the Tragically Hip, and Tom Waits. But Tom'll be hard. He doesn't tour much.
[livejournal.com profile] matociquala: He's the endboss.

I've never seen Tom Waits in concert, but green_trilobite and I saw him walking along Queen Street last time he was in town. We'd just seen Mystery Men, so green_trilobite said jokingly, "hey look, it's Tom Waits." I surveyed the guy. He really looked like Waits. Also the guy he was talking to said "see you at the concert tonight." Also my housemate had been talking about going to see Tom Waits in concert that evening. I whispered "I think that *is* Tom Waits."

Afterwards, for a long time, green_trilobite would hopefully say things like "look, it's Vincent d'Onofrio," but it never worked again.
