I can't afford to go, esp when they (and garbage) are the only bands that I'm desperate to see]. 2) The Dandy Warhols (@ enmore theatre). The stupid FUCKWIT girl who was standing behind me who, for some reason would periodically shake me and start ordering me to dance. Then she started poking me incessantly and shaking me until I turned around her and said in my best bitch voice "do you fucking mind" so she glared at me, spilt her beer down my arm and pushed across into the crown (there wasn't much forward, i was 1.5 rows back). then some dick on the other side of the stage started whining in the middle of Godless (which I was NOT HAPPY about because i love that song...) and so they started playing all sorts of more rockin' stuff...which was nice because they did Boys Better...but I much prefer their atmospheric pieces. and they had done all the ones i wanted. including their cover of "your ghost". so, halted godless and fuckwit girl aside, it was a good gig. i haven't really had any other bad ones. i didn't enjoy a perfect circle much though...too, too many people. i haven't been to a tori concert so i can't comment on how bad that would be. xoxo dan ;) ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ I Have a fish nailed to a cross on my apartment wall It sings to me with glassy eyes and quotes from Kafka. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ OzTori - http://www.oztori.org For all your Australasian Tori Amos needs. ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 10 Jan 2002 01:41:03 -0800 (PST) From: Nathan R Subject: [oztori] American audience..

It totally fucked the effect - cause it lit the whole stage (which had been dark the whole time) and it lit all the band members - - anyway when the Lights had come up to full - Loreena looked at this silly little freak girl and just tilted her head to the side and shook her head at the girl... the seat nearly swallowed the girl. ANYWAY another crappy thing - my Mother also came and took her 'friend' anyway we were having coffee afterwards and my friends who live on the other side of town got there another way so they hung around upstairs - and I *KNEW* that she would come out - anyway this stupid friend of mum's basically stopped me from going back upstairs a little later cause she was 'in the know' that they lock the doors. BULL CRAP - mind your own FUCKING BUSINESS LADY... you wish you could say these things. Anyway Mum didn't really know and thought that she might be 'in the know too'. So that was that. Get to school the next day, my friend had met Loreena and most of her band members. I wasn't happy Jan. Mum's friend - is still a know-it-all. BITCH! :o) One more - and this is sorta of a non-event. I passed on seeing the Smashing Pumpkins in 1995 and Bjork in 1996 - Subsequently the Smashing Pumpkins have broken up and I don't see Bjork coming anytime soon.

You're in this water womb and you're singing this music, and nobody can make a comment on it. It takes me away from my instrument and becomes this pure thing connected to the water world and the water creatures and the water rythms and the sea foam faeries. And all of a sudden you feel...oh wow...you almost feel like you can breathe in that world. You don't need oxygen anymore. Once it takes you down and underneath the water, you start to feel in a completely different way. 'Cruel' was really birthed out of that. I played the percussion of 'Cruel' in the shower on my excess fat. It sounded really good. It made me feel good when I'd have that next bag of potato chips.

Oh gawd that is such a cop-out, typical cliche "Oh I love Australia so much" comment - eg. as US "celebrities" always say when they're asked.. Like they're likely to say a comment like "Australia is a hole". And like Mark would say something like "Why TF would we want to go THERE." It's all PR bullshit. I don't buy it for a second. Also - Tori & Mark could come here any time they wanted to (eg. for holiday)... It's not like they couldn't afford it or anything. "I wish we could go to OZ?" C'mon - this is not a poverty-stricken man or a 7 year old boy making a holiday suggestion to his parents here. Nathan. . Send FREE video emails in Yahoo!

I reckon Tori was inspired to do the medley of Smalltown Boy and Tubular Bells with Father Lucifer on the Dew Drop Inn tour because of Jan: "run away, turn away, run away, turn away, run away".. hehe. It describes exactly what Jan did as soon as she realised she forgot to have the Yellow Pages ad in on time. Nathan. . Send FREE video emails in Yahoo!

Cancer the crab! Gotta love the combo! That'd have to hurt ... youch! White satin??? Go the black satin, much more attractive for the modern seductress, such as you, Bevan! Strut your stuff with SOME style at least! Jan seems to get blamed for everything. How about "Not Happy Dan!" it works. And there is enough on this list that I can offend more people at the same time. All fun and Games! *bounce* I agree with The Nath on the Mark comment. Smiling and letting pleasant comments waft out of your mouth and mumbling "Like hell I'm going there" under your breath is the norm. I do that on a daily basis. Tell people what they want to hear but do the opposite. Holly? You still there or did you get fired? Has anybody been fired from being on Oztori at work before? I'm manipulating them well here so I am safe :) ~Bindy _________________________________________________________________ Send and receive Hotmail on your mobile device: http://mobile.msn.com ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 11 Jan 2002 16:45:16 +1000 From: Becc Subject: Re: [oztori] bag of chips and other bits On Friday, 11/01/2002 at 8:00 AM, Lavenda wrote: >>And not even the crosses, if you look at ancient Crete, where >>the goddesses had crosses drawn on their bodies in art that's been >>found.

Oh, and for people who care, I've worked out what I don't like about Heather Nova's latest album ("South") - its underproduced. "Gloomy Sunday" REALLY point out the holes - the sound is too sparse and...some word that I had a moment ago starting with un...i want to say unobvious...maybe I mean unobtrusive. But her voice in the album is rather thin and reedy, and it doesn't stand out enough against acousticness...but against the drums and such of Gloomy Sunday, it really seems in its element.
