Hoskyns found many musicians, fellow travellers and Waits friend (Keith Richards, filmmaker Jim Jarmusch and others) checked with Waits and Brennan if it was okay to talk, and most came back with a polite, “Thanks but no thanks“.Als Grund dafür vermutet Hoskyns: „it’s about controlling the level of mystique around them“ – im folgenden Clip spricht er darüber (das ist aus dem Frage-und-Antwort-Teil einer Autorenlesung von 2009). Tom Waits und Kathleen Brennan sind aber einfach auch ganz allgemein darauf bedacht, ihre Privatsphäre zu wahren, vor allem Kathleen.

Weiterer Beleg für diese Sichtweise Hoskyns‘: But as Mr. Hoskyns points out: “He is no rock-and-roll version of J. D. Salinger or Thomas Pynchon. He never hid out in the mountains like Dylan after his motorcycle accident, or like Bucky Wunderlick in Don DeLillo’s novel ‘Great Jones Street,’ ” adding, “Generally he’s been on hand to give good quote in support of the latest album.”
