Dranx0 Posted August 21, 2009 Share Posted August 21, 2009 oh, then it's the other one. The one I heard about was, LAPD v. Waits. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shai Posted August 21, 2009 Share Posted August 21, 2009 I was kidding, but if he sued them it would be what I said. If it was a countersuit it would be what you said. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dranx0 Posted August 21, 2009 Share Posted August 21, 2009 oh, you're completely blowing my mind with this. but seriously, what was the dispute? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shai Posted August 21, 2009 Share Posted August 21, 2009 Waits has also filed a lawsuit unrelated to his music. He was arrested in 1977 outside Duke's Tropicana Coffee Shop in Los Angeles. Waits and a friend were trying to stop some men from bullying other patrons. The men were plainclothes police, and Waits and his friend were taken into custody and charged with disturbing the peace. The jury found Waits not guilty; he took the police department to court and was awarded $7,500 compensation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

earl broclo ESQ Posted December 21, 2009 Share Posted December 21, 2009 I've been a huge fan of Jim Jarmusch for about 20 years now, or at least since "Night on Earth" came out. That's where I first got introduced to Tom Waits. The movie was great on it's own, but his music made it that much better. If you haven't seen it, I highly recommend it. I know someone already mention "Down By Law" as well, but that's another classic. Jarmusch is the man. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
earl broclo ESQ Posted December 21, 2009 Share Posted December 21, 2009 Oh --and watch Mystery Train. Waits is the voice of the radio DJ. Another great Jarmusch film. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
