Reeperbahn, Alice, Tom Waits [296]

Waits leaves the theatre and heads out to the streets, with Sean, Sam and Martin (as well as Udo Lindenberg) in tow. Discussion ranges from the image of Hamburg's red-light district across the last 50 years, German re-purposing of US rock (and vice versa), and locational nostalgia from around the world.
