It was a carnival-like revival of the surreal on the historic Brady Theater stage on Wednesday night at the Brady Theater, and Tom Waits was its swarthy-voiced ringleader.

The storied singer and spoken-word performer maneuvered between piano, guitar and maracas, and his band belted out tunes on clarinet, bass clarinet, doghouse bass, drums, keyboards, hand drums and more.

For this show, however, Waits’ trademark granulated voice was the ultimate instrument, from rumbling growls to falsettos and even beatboxing.

During Rain Dogs, he pulled his leg up and arms out, into a crane position and clapped his hands.

As he raven-cawed out the lyrics, We sail tonight for Singapore, the vivid blue, white, red and yellow spotlights blinked and burned against the crushed red velvet curtains behind him.

The near-capacity audience was set adrift into Waits intricate aural hallucination.

In between songs, he’d croak out salty monologues about the sound of corn growing to how sensitive eels are to alcohol.

Several times, he even gently shushed the amorous crowd, which often erupted into yells and chants for their favorite songs while he segued through his set after all, it was Waits first time to perform in Tulsa. Ever.

It was also his first performance in the Sooner state since 1974, when he opened for Frank Zappa in Oklahoma City.
As if drunkenly running from a hell hound on his heels, he staggered into Goin’ Out West, claiming he had a devil on a leash.

Throughout the set, fog roiled forth in bursts as he stomped his feet on the stage. Sweat streaked his cheeks like tears and saturated his three-piece gray suit.He never faltered.

The two-plus hour set was as eclectic as his decades-long career, as he barked out poetry to tunes like Lucinda, November, Black Market Baby, Innocent When You Dream, Cemetery Polka, Come on Up to the House, Rain Dogs and Lie to Me.

During the encore, he donned a mirrored bowler hat and spun like a disco ball.

So put a candle in the window and a kiss upon his lips,î he sang along to his encore tune Time.

I made a golden promise, that we would never part. I gave my love a locket, and then I broke her heart.

As the dish outside the window fills with rain / Just like a stranger with the weeds in your heart / And pay the fiddler off till I come back again.

The sound on this show is a little goofy. For the longest time I couldn’t figure it out. But now I’m pretty sure its been slowed down slightly. I’m guessing on the transfer from the original tape to digital the tape played back just a tad off. Or something. I don’t really know.

The results are, well, weird. It isn’t immediately noticeable, at least not to me. I mean I could tell something was off, but I wasn’t sure what. Its when Bruce talks that I figured it out. It isn’t some over exaggerated thing like the whales in Finding Nemo but just a slight slow down which makes Bruces voice a bit lower and makes him sound a bit strung out.

I won’t say it is un-listenable, but its pretty close. I’m sure it can be fixed though if any of you know what you are doing. And if any of you do know what you are doing and do fix it, please reupload it and I’ll share it again.
