Maybe, but remember I was actually aged *13* for 11 twelfths (gotta love a word with an impossible consecutive "fth" to pronounce) of 1992, so you've jumped the gun a little (and you ain't no mother superior ;) Nathan. ===== "They don't expect boys to pretend to be nice, but they do with girls, and I'm not a nice person!" - Siobhan Fahey. _______________________________________________________________________ New DSL Internet Access from SBC & Yahoo! http://sbc.yahoo.com ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 19 Sep 2002 20:09:04 +1000 From: "AndrewR" Subject: [oztori] Free Tori (from the makers of "Free Willy") hmmm maybe record companies are making no money because most new music is SHITE!..

So here, for your reading pleasure, is a list of on topic oztori-related questions I want answers to: 1. Will Australia be getting the limited edition SW with bonus DVD? 2. If no to (1), will the US DVD be region encoded? (These bonus DVD dealies aren't usually region locked are they?) 3. Is the US limited edition SW really limited, or one of those 'limited editions' that will be around for years (like the Winter EP)? (That is, should I rush to pre-order the US one from Amazon or wait and see what happens here first?) 4. Will Australia still be getting the ASF single? 5. Should we be worried that Sony has removed the listing for the ASF single that was on their webiste a few weeks ago? 6. What are the damn b-sides going to be for the ASF single (if any)? 7. Will Tori come to Australia for the Scarlet's Walk tour? 8. When are we likely to find out the answer to 7? 9. When will Tori's UK dates be announced? 10. What will Tori's UK dates be? 11. Will Tori be taking the Wurli and the Fender Rhodes on tour with her? 12. How much do I have to pay Tori *not* to take the Wurli or Fender Rhodes with her? 13. Will Tori ever realize how truly hideous those instruments are in concert? 14. Will Tori sing "heeeeeeeee" a lot this tour? Nope. That didn't make me feel better. Still going to vomit.

No, it's not annoying. That's the only thing I like about that song - the live performances where it is drawn out like that. I used to cringe at it but now I love it.
