Kathleen Brennan one of the best rock spouses

Word Magazine lists Kathleen Brennan as one of the 20 best rock spouses: ,,Married to Tom Waits since 1980, co-writes many of his songs, responsible - Waits says - for transforming him from balladeering bar-room lush to modern Beefheart''.

One???

just ONE???!!!

this is laffable.

What other spouse of a Rock and Roll genius even comes close.

Kathleen Brennan is the NUMBER ONE rock and roll spouse of ALL TIME.

Her contributions to keeping Mr Waits on the planet and the bloodline alive should sow up this title.

Indeed, Willy ! Cage's Coppola's nephew. That's how they met : Tom knows Francis, who knows Nicolas, etc. Tom'best friend's include Nicolas Cage, and Jack Nicholson... you know, those stars know each other from show business meetings, and such...

actually i think nicholas cage is coppola's son. the only reason their names are different is because cage didnt want to be in his father's shadow.

Have you guys heard of Wikipedia?

Nicolas Cage (born Nicolas Kim Coppola; January 7, 1964

Cage was born in Long Beach, California. His father, August Coppola, was a professor of literature

To avoid the appearance of nepotism as the nephew of Francis Ford Coppola, he changed his name early in his career to Nicolas Cage, inspired in part by the Marvel Comics superhero Luke Cage
