(Kinda hoping CFG doesn't sell so I can keep her :-) Black Dove is also a favorite. She's my Goth *girl*. I both enjoyed making them and hated it because I took on tooo tooo much so close to the wedding. Imagine hand painting 16 pairs of wings - some measuring 3 feet across. Add to that all the details I included - sterling silver charms specially chosen to represent each song, genuine Swarovski crystals, marabou feathers - Whew! VERY detailed. They came out great. They were a tremendous amount of work. I'm proud :-) I very much appreciate your kind words My fellow EWF friend :-) Thank you muchly Toodles ~ MysT *For those curious, the 16 songs/themes are: Etienne / Cool On Your Island / Winter / Little Earthquakes God / Cornflake Girl / Father Lucifer / Northern Lad / Black Dove Hey Jupiter / Glory Of The 80's / Lust / Strange Little Girl I'm Not In Love / Take To The Sky / Myra Ellen ~ RAINN **See - MysT IS certifiable!

Especially Black Dove, I'm partial to the song, but man, those wings made me drool. I also liked Etienne, Father Lucifer, Winter, Little Earthquakes, Northern Lad, and Lust. Keep up the good work! I can't bid on them unfortunately, but I'm sure you'll get bids a'plenty. I just wanted to tell you that they were awesome.

I took notes during the show, here's what I've got.Tori's parents were giving out hugs and kisses and signing programs in the Orchestra before Tori's set. Set List: '97 Bonnie & Clyde (started off with the usual offstage singing, lights going around the audience, picture of the song's girl hanging in front of the stage.) Siren (a fantastic rendition, played solely on the Bosey) Past the Mission A little chatter to the audience, "Haven't seen some of you in a long time." "The baby's teething." "Husband's are good at changing diapers. And you know, gals, when husbands are good at something, you just can't take that away from them." Sweet Dreams Upside Down Beauty Queen/Horses Josephine (Started in on the piano, then stopped with the following. "Ok, fuck it. I can't read my words that are on the floor." Picks up the lyrics and places them in front of her on the Bosey. "Cheat sheet.", she says. "You know I can't remember anything." "I don't think I've ever done this before." (I'm thinking she meant Josephine.) Northern Lad This Old Man Raining Blood Talula on the Wurlitzer starting off with an "I don't want to lose her now." intro. Forgot some words and smile, had to pause at the "said one plus one.." part, and repeated it again. With much more ad-libbing on Talula to follow. Pretty damn good.Hang around on the blood part quite a bit. "Somebody tell me who this father is." Sung, "Wrapped in my papoose" line three times. I Don't Like Mondays with beautiful purple and pink background lights. Me and a Gun, thank goodness, no cell phones rang. No one yelled out and inappropriate adoring remarks. I watched the parents my from vantage point, although it was dark, it looked as if Dr. Amos didn't move a muscle during the entire performace. He had an aisle seat towards the center rear of the orchestra and was leaning to the right the see around the person in front of him. As I was looking at Tori through my binoculars during MaaG, she seemed to be looking right at me, in the deadpan, trance-like way that only she can do. Her eyes seemed black and beady, almost demonic. When the Jesus line came she leaned back a bit and he face was better illuminated by the light. A beautiful Tori again. More than several people left after she performed MaaG. Was it a catharsis they were waiting for? An unfulfilling expectant tearjerker? After MaaG, Tori exited the stage after knelling and touching hands with fans along the front row. 1st Encore: Silent All These Years Merman with a nice little "Thank Heaven for Little Boys" intro. I couldn't help but think of Matthew Shephard, and oddly enough, Rufus. (Who I enjoyed quite well, bought the cd, and had him sign it. Dude is very skinny. He mentioned hanging out at some DC gay strip clubs on O Street. Some amusing onstage banter.) 2nd Encore: Started in on 1000 Oceans, a collective "We love you Tori" from one part of the audience, surprisingly the only one I heard all night. She responded with her usual cutesy grabby hand wave from the forehead with sly grin. I think this was the only time she played the Bosey & the keyboard and the same exact time during the show. Honey (loved it! a nice surprise.) Somewhere Over the Rainbow ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 8 Oct 2001 15:40:35 -0500 From: "Daisy Dead Petals" Subject: odd Tori poster I have an odd-ball Tori poster and I was wondering if anyone knew where it originally came from. Maybe it is in the Collectables book (I dont have that--shame on me). It is 31.5x11 inches approximately. It has 21 boxes on it, and the boxes are alternating magazine covers featuring Tori, quotes from magazines about her albums, and the Pele-era "tori logo" on a red field. It says that it is an Atlantic promotional item. Did this come with something as a bonus? Was it distributed to record stores only? It came to me all folded up in a square (a fold line on each of the 21 squares). I got it from the now defunct Upside Down fan club. Any info on this poster would be much appreciated!

I NEED TO KNOW!!!!!!!!!! yes, they went on sale a few weeks ago! the show is reportedly sold out, but you can never really tell since ticketmaster and the venue box office often release blocks of tickets as the show date gets closer and maym in fact, hold tickets back until the day of the show. the link for buying them on-line is: https://ticketing.ticketmaster.com/cgi/purchasePage.asp?event_id=900332AD13FD3D3&event_code=EWT1117E&MajorCATID=10001&MinorCATID=1&artistID=749136 also, keep an eye-out around the various tori mailing list (such as this one) since people may post about extras that they are selling. woj ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 8 Oct 2001 22:59:20 -0400 From: "Lesley Freitas" Subject: desperately looking for 1 ticket to hartford or boston Hi there, Well, I'm a long time Tori fan (but aren't we all :^); I managed to get 6th row for her Plugged '98 San Jose show and 10th row for her Bakersfield show with Alanis. Unfortunately, this time around, I wasn't so lucky. I just went away to college, and managed to miss my chance at tickets (I'm a complete scatterbrain, unfortunately). I'm looking for just one ticket to either Hartford or Boston. It doesn't matter where the ticket is, I just want to go! :^) However, I can't afford to pay more than face. I know this is a long shot, especially so close to the shows, but please, if you have an extra ticket, e-mail me (at Lesley_Freitas@brown.edu). Thanks so much! - -- Lesley ------------------------------ End of precious-things-digest V6 #192 *************************************
