I have the same problem... my branch was rsch1@idt.net and despite emailing that person several times I never got a response. It made me sad. Does else who was a leaf on that branch know what's going on... or alternatively, is there anyone else willing to make a copy of this CD for me?

When I decided I wanted to go to the 8/29 philly show it was the 26th and I bought my tix online...I got better (closer) seats then my friends who bought em the day of sale! (I also got front row horde, and 7th row matchbox20) What happens is the venue, artists and promotions have a certain # of tix set aside, and they get released to the public a day or so before hand....it's rather risky, but it can pay off...I don't recomend it in this case, as we have pre-sale. If, by chance, you decide you want to go, say 2-3 weeks after they go on sale, then you should just wait, like I did....:) Love in tori, Jewlya ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 18 May 1999 10:26:26 -0700 From: "gina" Subject: Re: Advance Tickets just as a warning, this tour will most likely sell out very quickly. my friends & i decided to go to the Alanis/Garbage show a month or two ago at the last minute, and there were _extremely few_ tickets available from scalpers. and they all wanted at least double the face value because it was Alanis--and a sold-out show. with a Tori/Alanis double bill--plus all the mp3 media hype--tickets will be a hot commodity. my advice is to get them early to avoid tears later on. g. ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 18 May 1999 02:05:59 -0700 From: Dominick W Olivas Subject: Re: Tori and Tolkien Hello all...

ON-SALE Most shows go on-sale Friday (5/21) ON THE INTERNET ONLY. Not all shows have deals in place for Internet ticket sales. Unfortunately, they didn't have a list of which particular shows are participating in this. Check with: Alanis and Tori Web Site http://www.alanisandtori.com TicketMaster http://www.ticketmaster.com Tickets sold on-line require a credit card so if you don't have one then you might want to start making arrangements to have somebody purchase tickets for you. TORI AND ALANIS WEB SITE The "Alanis and Tori" web site will open Friday, May 21. This site will allow fans to pre-order tour tickets, hear music, and get tour photos and diaries. http://www.toriandalanis.com UPCOMING RELEASE The upcoming release will definitely be two CDs rather than three as previously reported. A specific release date is still being hashed out, they would only say, "sometime between late August and November". :) ORLANDO, FL Atlantic and MP3.com name the venue as the "Orlando Arena" but the correct venue is the "Ice Palace". This show goes on-sale on-line via TicketMaster this Friday (5/21) morning. NORTHWEST US/CANADA Between trying to coordinate Tori's and Alanis' schedules and the dates the venues were available, it just wasn't possible to have any concerts in the Northwestern US or Canada. I was hoping shows might be added but that just won't be happening. -Greg Burrell The Official Tori Amos Fanzine News Editor http://www.toriamos.org Really Deep Thoughts ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 17 May 1999 23:56:53 EDT From: "not persephone" Subject: Re: Jackie's Strength in a radio interview tori taped for my local radio station she said she was flipping through a book... and on the one page there was a picture of Jackie O in her wedding garb, looking all hopeful..and then next page had the assassination picture of JFK.. tori said something along the lines of her wondering how strong jackie had to be to go through that..and how things had changed so much... and that's where the beginnings of the song came from.. hope that helps.. barb.. > >I was wondering if anyone knows the story behind the song "Jackie's >Strength".

I basically forgot about the tree after I had mail trouble the first time (i got my package sent back to me after 2 weeks of sending it to nad). Then Josh mailed me, I finally got the CD to nad for copying (and verified that with her that she received it). She's now in Europe and should return some time this week. I should have the CD to you by the end of the month. Christ, I really dropped the ball didn't I? > I have been waiting so pateinetly,but it has been quite some time. Eh, I apologize.

ORLANDO, FL I reported that the Orlando venue was moved to the "Ice Palace". However, I neglected to mention that the Ice Palace is in Tampa. the show has been moved from Orlando to Tampa. There will not be a concert in Orlando, FL. The show goes on sale this Friday, May 21 at 10am (ET) ON-LINE ONLY. http://www.ticketmaster.com CANADA I previously said there wouldn't be any concerts in the North- Western US or Canada. I should have been more clear: the 9/7 show in Toronto is still on but there will not be any shows in Vancouver or any part of Western Canada. There will also not be any shows in Washington or Oregon. ON-SALE Right now these are the specific shows that I know go on-sale this coming Friday, May 21 ON-LINE ONLY: 8/20 Tampa, FL 8/22 Nashville, Tn 9/3 Buffalo, NY 9/25 Irvine, CA Tori's management said that MOST of the shows will go on sale on-line this Friday but they didn't have a specific list. I do know that these are some (but not all) of the shows going on-sale Friday morning at 10AM Eastern Time. -Greg Burrell The Official Tori Amos Fanzine News Editor http://www.toriamos.org Really Deep Thoughts ------------------------------ End of precious-things-digest V4 #145 *************************************
