The full concert will be webcast on the 2/10/97 and dozens of radio stations will be broadcasting part of it (possibly different than Lifetime's ~45 minutes) this weekend. Full details reachable from Mikewhy's site: http://www.aye.net/~mikewhy/rainncon.html That said, I did grab the Lifetime broadcast on DAT (from cable, not DSS). if anyone does have an audience DAT of the entire thing, I'd be interested, too ( http://www.cs.wustl.edu/~rjk1/mylist for what I could offer). Even a mediocre audience analog would be better than the webcast. The Lifetime broadcast was wonderful. My only complaint (aside from the length ;) ) was the blatant re-ordering of songs. There is an energy that gets lost when the songs are played out of order (much less punctuated by commercials, though that is a forgivable necessity that is correctable). bob ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 5 Feb 1997 15:14:13 +0000 (GMT) From: Keith Chegwin Subject: YKTR boot for sale I ended up with two, so I'll sell the other one at cost. 19ukp.

I guess she must have said it somewhere though.. I guess it was in some interview?.. I think the full thing is "... wood for the fire." Also... "Climb down off that cross, we really need the wood!" I think it's a popular expression isn't it? I mean, it's also the title of an album by Firewater. Firewater is a collaboration of people from jesus lizard, soul coughing.. and a bunch of other bands. Oh, and searching on the web I see Marc Stowe also has an album of the same name.

I think not! I took the campus shuttle/bus home today, and the bus driver was playing Under the Pink in the shuttle. I was somewhat surprised because most drivers do not play any music and when they do, it's usually country-western or urban. So I started a conversation with him about Tori and it turns out that his girlfriend is a huge fan. He said that if it was not for his girlfriend, he would probably not have discovered the music of Tori. We were talking for about a minute when this girl who was sitting across from me interrupted us and proclaimed that she was a Toriphile also. It turns out that this girl and I both attended some of the same shows in Northern California over the summer. I really love UCSC because there is SO many Toriphiles here. Have a great one. Mickey PS ATTN: Melissa Michaelis. Could you please tell me what you want on your stuff? I had to format my hard drive over the weekend and I forgot to back up my email folders and address book.

"Official Tori" videos Little Earthquakes SATY, Crucify, Winter, China Under the Pink God, Cornflake Girl (2 versions), PGY, Past the Mission Boys For Pele Caught a Lite Sneeze, Talula, Hey Jupiter, PW remix For those that haven't seen the UTP and BFP ones: God amidst what appears to be a religious revival and some rather interesting imagery, Tori dances with snakes and rats (one I believe, falls into her blouse, unless that's a dream I'm having ) Cornflake Girl (US) I have not seen the UK version, but the US one had Tori driving a truck with some female friends. They capture a man and decide to cook him. PGY I have not seen this video, but I know she jumps through glass or something PTM Tori leads a crusade of women to a church (if I remember right) and confront the priest (I could be way off, but it's a Pied Piper sorta thing) CALS Colorful and spinning. Lots of gauges, chairs moving back and forth, and leaves. Talula Some scientists are studying something and tori breaks through plastic with a torch before reaching through more plastic to play the piano.

Not likely. Kelly (Tori's concert merchandise vendor) was rationing them near the end of the tour as to how many she put out to sell at a given show, and she actually ran out at the end of the very last show in Boulder. Sorry for the bad news. I think you're going to have to have someone make color photocopies for you if you're going to know what it looked like at all, and unless the person has access to a color photocopier, you'll end up paying them the Kinko's rate of $1.49 per page. It's 24 pages long, so color photocopies would run you like $40--and you won't have the quality of the original printing, anyway. BTW, (and this will pass for being *really* obscure), there were at least two print runs of the tour book. One of them on the last page before you get to the inside back cover says it was "Printed in England" and another print run says it was "Printed in the England." Pretty funny. Well, back to work here at *this* print shop where *I* work.
