This interview appears to have been recorded after the gig on Saturday night (or very early Sunday morning) on 4/16/77. The dead giveaway is the reference to the performance on Saturday Night Live, which took place on 4/9/77. The UMASS gig with Leon Redbone which Tom mentions took place at the Academy Of Music in Northampton, Massachusetts on April 13, 1977. The Pittsburgh gigs with Charles Bukowski took place at the University of Pennsylvania on March 12 & 13 of 1976. More detail of Tom's touring history can be found at http://www.tomwaitslibrary.com/ under "Biography." If you have details of performances not listed there, please email them to trylucius(at)comcast(dot)net. Thanks!
