Now touring behind her latest, From the Choirgirl Hotel, the Cornflake Girl faces the daunting task of connecting on a personal level in impersonal areans. Amos acknowleges that she's not playing "somebody's living room" anymore. And while she is preforming a few acoustic number for imtimacy's sake, the shows are, for the most part, "a buckle-your-seat-belt kind of thing." "It's a girl on her piano that found some boys who she digs, and the wine is good," she says cryptically. Translation: You've gotta see the show because Amos has got a brand new band, which beats a solo, harpischord-humping babe any day.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE October 1st, 1998 Contact: Michael Lieberman/Julie Frenette/Aaron Mendelson; (607) 274-1621 TORI AMOS WILL PERFORM AT ITHACA COLLEGE^ÒS BEN LIGHT GYMNASIUM ON SUNDAY, NOVEMBER 8th, 1998 ^Ö 7:30 PM TICKETS ON SALE OCTOBER 8th FOR THE ITHACA COLLEGE COMMUNITY TICKETS ON SALE OCTOBER 13th FOR THE GENERAL PUBLIC ^ÓThe relationship that Tori Amos shares with her fans may well be studied by misguided religious historians centuries from now. Her concerts carry the heavy air of a church tent revival, with Amos' followers swaying, wailing, and showering the songstress with gifts, tears, and bits of their soul. She is more than a musician to them; she is a mother, a healer, a saint, and a shaman.^Ô On November 8th, 1998, the captivating pianist, singer/songwriter, Tori Amos will be performing at Ithaca College^Òs Ben Light Gymnasium at 7:30 p.m. "FROM THE CHOIRGIRL HOTEL" is Tori Amos^Ò fourth album, following the multi-million-selling albums "LITTLE EARTHQUAKES" (1991), "UNDER THE PINK" (1994) and "BOYS FOR PELE" (1996). Those albums established the singer as one of the most strikingly talented songwriters around today. No one wrote songs, sang songs, or most importantly, played piano quite like the girl who had first sat down at a keyboard at the tender age of two and a half. Now, with the recording and release of her new LP, ^ÓFrom the Choirgirl Hotel,^Ô Tori Amos has come into her own and is performing better than ever. Tickets go on sale October 8th for members of the Ithaca College Community. Tickets will then go on sale on October 13th for the general public. The price of admission is $15 with an Ithaca College I.D. and $18 for the general public. Tickets may be bought at the Ithaca College Campus Center Lobby (Check Cashing Window), Rebop Records, Sounds Fine, and through Ticketmaster. This concert is being sponsored by the Ithaca College Bureau of Concerts. ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 01 Oct 1998 06:21:10 PDT From: "Heather Parsons" Subject: Roseanne airing for Triangle area Hey all, If you live in Raleigh/Durham/Chapel Hill/Fayetteville (I think it reaches Fayetville), Tori will be on the Roseanne show tonight at 6 pm on channel 13, that's on cable btw.

(for those of you who don't know, stardust is a graphic novel series - four issues - issue three features tori as a tree (horses - "will you find me if neil makes me a tree") who helps the main character on his quest. it's not in typical panel form but with text and illustrations, like a picture book. also: the few pages which the tori tree appeared are also found (just the text) in the choirgirl hotel tour book, along with a neil intro: "make me a tree," she said one day. her house was built over a canal, and swans and narrowboats travelled beneath us. "what kind of tree?" i asked. "a red tree," she said. with boyfaeries in my bushes. so I did.) the novel is rougly 200 pages, and it's not illustrated. tori is mentioned in neil's introduction - something like "tori, her house was built over a canal and she let me stay there, and all she asked in return was for me to make her a tree." I don't yet have a copy of this, but I have a friend who has one (and I am expecting one of my own shortly) and this info comes from him. I'm not sure what the publishing date is either, but when I know I will let you know. roughly two or three months from now -- november or december?

I love those boots she had on. Skirt was pretty too. It seemed most of the audience was there to see her and were enthusiastic when she came out. When Roseanne started the interview, Tori made the cutest little comment of how nervous she is on tv. "Rabbits"... anyways...Roseanne went on to ask her about her songs and how honest she was in them. Tori made the comment of how her dad didn't like father lucifer, and she said "why not, it's the only one's that not about you!" she also said how she's discovered lucifer's "a girl, wears white and drives an ice cream truck". They talked about RAINN and how it got it's start. Roseanne had 3 guests on that told of their rape experiances and it tore me up to see tori sit there with tears in her eyes, wanting to comfort these women. The 18 year old got to me, for i've been in her shoes. Tori then sang a beautiful non-band version of jackie's strength, and then me and a gun with roseanne and the 3 women standing around the piano. i really don't like roseanne's interviewing style that much, but she has a great tendency to throw the question out to the person and step back and let them answer it without interfering too much. over all it was well done ~~~becka ICQ#14314488 ______________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free Email at http://www.hotmail.com ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 1 Oct 1998 01:57:18 -0500 (CDT) From: Simon Booth Subject: Just got in from seeing my first Tori concert!! WOW! I have just returned from seeing my first Tori show, at the Majestic Theatre here in San Antonio. I am still feeling the effect, and I LOVE it! :) the 9/30/98 show- I've emailed a few people who told me it was cool, and you weren't wrong. The wheelchair-accessable seating was great for me (except when people stood up but that's cool, I would have too if I could :) ) and my three friends. The Devlins were an excellent opening act, although I couldn't get one of their CDs being sold there I'll definitely track them down either locally or online. And Tori came out....and blew me (and everyone else I bet! :) ) away! I was expecting something intense but I had no idea! Like flying a spacecraft right into a supernova, and wanting more! I mean, there's this energy that just hits you just right and you feel a high that you just don't want to come down from. Tori, the piano, and the band, all in synch. It ROCKED! I loved the way she altered the arrangement of the songs, you needed to guess a little as she and the band segued from one song to the next. That I thought was a neat touch. :) I've just never heard any of Tori's songs done like they were performed tonight. It was just so intense, I wished I wasn't so quickly running out of words to describe the experience. I hope other SA ewf's enjoyed it as much :) I know this isn't an 'official' Tori concert report, but I was just so taken with tonight's show, I wanted to capture that in text form, my take on seeing my first Tori show. I was tempted to wheel down to the stage after the show and tell the security crew that the show was excellent and I just wanted to tell Tori I thought she was the coolest....then I figured the security guys would say 'yeah you and 3000 other people' so I didn't. Seeing her live was enough :) Next time I have to leave my schedule open to make it to the meet and greet. To anyone who has yet to see a show on the tour, you'll like it :) Just seeing 'Precious Things', 'Spacedog', and 'Raspberry Swirl' live is worth it! Looking forward to Tori in 2000!

I was a little pissed off though that they ended the show in the middle of "Me and a Gun"!!!!! How aweful! I hope she got to sing the whole song while she was there. it would have been aweful if they said "CUT!". I'm sure they didn't, but I still thought the way they did it was uncool. ~~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~ Carrie-Ellen Batcheller 14 McDaniel Dr. Box 2110 Durham NH 03824 http://www.geocities.com/RainForest/9523 trade page: http://wwww.geocities.com/RainForest/9523/tori.html Say hi (: ICQ #: 20170937 "So I thought I'd make some plans But fire thought she'd rather be water instead..." ~~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~ ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 1 Oct 1998 17:28:49 -0400 (EDT) From: Carrie-Ellen Subject: Quicktime Problem RESOLVED (: I just wanted to say a big THANK YOU to everyone who helped out. it turned out I didn't need a different version of Quicktime at all, I just needed to go into Windows Explorer, click on the view menu, then folder options, and check "show all files".

I only caught it from where the women started talking about their experiences, and I sat there and cried. My poor daughter (who just turned 1 on the 21st of Sept), didn't know what to make of it. Too much of it hit far too close to home. And "debbie" ... Poor Tori, I thought she was going to lose it when they talked about their experiences, and I had this feeling that Tori wanted to just jump up and hug "debbie." I had to leave while Tori sang "Me and a Gun" ... I just ... wow. -- The Mermaid ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 1 Oct 1998 19:27:02 EDT From: Talula4876@aol.com Subject: Tori on the Roseanne Show Hi everyone, Does anyone know if The Roseanne Show with Tori will be re-airing anytime soon?
