From Stuart Ross (Tom Waits staff):
Sorry to say that Tom is NOT performing at the San Remo festival. I don't 
know why they are telling the press this nonsense, but it's not true and 
has never been true. 
I think we sent them a cease and desist.

NEW RECORDINGS:  Hot off the unofficial and unconfirmed press, in the next
year we could potentially see a new Tom album... Also reportedly we might be
seeing 3 old Tom albums remixed, among which is Blue Valentine with bonus
tracks. We will check our sources to confirm these reports, we'll keep you
posted once we know what's happening.

SUNDAY, 23 NOVEMBER, an article appeared in the "Corriere della Sera" that
reported the intention of Tony Renis, the artistic director of the Festival
of San Remo, to host Tom Waits (coupled with Enrico Ruggeri)... we will
investigate at the TW label about this story to found out if it is true or
not .

MYSTERY TOM: The word of the Raindog knows no boundaries. We hear that in a
small, remote town in Russia, called TOMSK, an enlargement of Tom has
appeared... no knows who could have put it up. This is an wonderful tribute
to our hero, aside from the fact that the the town carries his name. If you
hear of any stories such as this, please tell us! Meanwhile, admire the
photographs of this special event.
