You're wrong. I think the problem with this list is it's a bit too liberal in its defintion of "rock & roll".

This lovely girl Melody and I have been working to make an EWF Cookbook to give to Tori on the 51/2 Weeks tour. Right now the cookbook is filled with lots of yummy recipies (many with a Tori theme), writing about food, and information form the people who have submitted. Melody and I are going to compile this all and hopefully give it to Tori on the tour. After the tour ends we plan to make this a RAINN fundraiser. We are looking for more submissions, either creative writings about food, Tori quotes about food (this will go into the RAINN cookbook), and of course recipies. Please feel free to send us info about yourself (name, location, DOB, favorite Tori song (just one please) and favortie album). All of which will be included in the book given to Tori. Thanks!! PLease email me or Melody and check out our website Love in Tori Debbie willoep@aol.com and Melody mermaid_hotel@angelfire.com The EWF Cookbook http://www.angelfore.com/co/here/cookbook.html ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 16 Jul 1999 14:13:49 -0500 From: Nadyne Mielke Subject: RAINN auction This message is from the ToriCon auction organizer, Jess . If you have items that you would like to donate to the auction, please email him to offer them. If you have questions about the auction, feel free to email me at and I'll try to deal with 'em. - -*- begin Jess's message -*- It's that time again, I'm putting the finishing touches on the ToriCon Auction web page but there is still room for a few more donations. What's the ToriCon Auction? It's a web auction held in conjunction with ToriCon which raises money for RAINN. ALL funds raised are donated to RAINN not just a portion. Items auctioned are donated by folks-folks like you. We will accept anything we can get someone to bid on for the auction, not just Tori related stuff. In the past two years we have had both Toristuff, nonToristuff, and items created by talented rmt-a'ers. If you have something that you wish to donate, please e-mail me asap. We must have the item in our possession to add it to the auction. Last year we raised over $1300 and we hope to do much better this year. We have some autographed Tori items, some cds and hopefully some live cds. There will be con t shirts, minicon t shirts, and a "Local Crew" t shirt from the Plugged Tour (with backstage pass.) There are some hand made ToriQuote bookmarks, a copy of the Complete Videos, a Rasberry Swirl necklace, and what is quite possibly the ultimate collectable, a mint copy of Tori's Baltimore 7" record on MEA. That's right: a copy of Baltimore just waiting to be sent to a good home along with a bunch of other wonderful goodies. If you have something to add, please e-mail me at jessw at cris dot com. If you don't have anything, find someone who does :-) Please. And stand by for the listing of items and opening of the web page in the next week. - -*- end Jess's message -*- Again: if you want to donate an item to the auction, please email Jess at . If you're interested in the items up for auction, wait for the website. :) Please feel free to forward/crosspost this to anyone you think might be interested. The more the merrier! /nad ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 16 Jul 1999 02:35:19 EDT From: KNHoppe@aol.com Subject: Atlantic's Digital Spew Here's Atlantic's press release on the latest Tori info, stuff we already pretty much knew! Just thought I'd share anyways... :) ~~Noelle~ *TORI ANNOUNCES SEPTEMBER 21ST RELEASE OF NEW "TO VENUS AND BACK" DOUBLE ALBUM* With her upcoming "5 1/2 Weeks Tour" set to get underway in just a few weeks, Tori Amos has announced the September 21st release of her new double album "TO VENUS AND BACK." Featuring live renditions from the recent "FROM THE CHOIRGIRL HOTEL" tour, the album will also include 12 new Amos penned/produced tracks. Among the new songs are "Bliss," which explores father-and-daughter ties, and "Glory Of The '80s" about Amos' time as a working musician in Reagan-era Los Angeles. The as-yet-to-be-determined first single is scheduled to hit radio on August 6th with a commercial single likely to follow. Of the new album, Tori remarks, "I had originally thought we were tracking stuff for the B-Sides album, and all of these songs kept coming. The writing gods decided to stop by, and you try and be there when the muse decides she wants to hang out with you." The "5 1/2 Weeks Tour," which will see Tori sharing a double bill with Alanis Morissette, kicks off August 18th in Ft. Lauderda! le. Check out the Tour Database on the Atlantic site for a complete itinerary! In related news. designer Steve Madden unveiled a new fashion shoe named after Tori AmosJuly 1st, with proceeds benefiting RAINN (Rape, Abuse & Incest National Network). The shoe will be available at Steve Madden stores nationwide and at the Steve Madden Website, as will additional promotions -- including a contest to win tickets to the Tori Amos/Alanis Morissette concerts as well as on the Steve Madden Website. Tori and RAINN's relationship with Steve Madden began last summer, when Steve Madden Ltd. sponsored RAINN's presence on the 1998 Lilith Fair Tour. RAINN, operates the country's only nationwide hotline for survivors of sexual assault, 1-800-656-HOPE. RAINN's hotline--a partnership of 828 local rape crisis centers across the country--has helped more than 270,000 victims since it was founded.
