I must admit, before meeting Tom, I had heard so many rumors and so much gossip that I was afraid... I was nervous to meet the real man himself.
Q: What’s heaven for you?
A: Me and my wife on Rte. 66 with a pot of coffee, a cheap guitar, pawnshop tape recorder in a Motel 6, and a car that runs good parked right by the door.

Q: Favorite scenes in movies?
A: R. De Niro in the ring in Raging Bull.
