We are getting ready for an evening fit for Tom Waits songs!

It all started six years ago as a tribute night dedicated to Tom Waits and his incrazed ingeniousity, which broke into such success both from the side of the audience and the musicians, that since then every year on the birtday of Tom Waits we celebrate it with a lunatic concert by the best in his style from the local scene.
