In some ways I don't know how a lot of the fundamentals. But I do understand about other things. Sometimes it's more about people aligning with what they know. Sort of being able to understand that concept of shape-shifting. We don't create this stuff on our own. We co-create it with the creative force itself. Call it the muse, call it whatever. I believe that. And if you don't believe that, then she's going to get pissed off at you and just not come and visit you anymore and you won't write anymore songs (laughs). We are just part of it." - -Tori Amos - -Performing Songwriter, January/February 2002 ===== this is wonderfully said -- an artist who has the balls--and lack of ego- to admit it's not by her alone that makes the work, well, work. - -AJ ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 25 Feb 2002 02:37:45 EST From: JNe9027355@aol.com Subject: Re: precious-things-digest V7 #27 In a message dated 1/31/02 10:21:56 PM Pacific Standard Time, owner-precious-things-digest@smoe.org writes: > From: ekrone1 > Subject: RE: precious-things-digest V7 #26 > > I have come to the conclusion that nobody knows.

It's a much more eloquent (of course) summation of a bunch of stuff I had been rolling around in my head lately. Oh and thanks for reminding me... I should stop by the newsstand on the way home from work today and see if they still have any copies of this issue of Performing Songwriter. - -- - --------------------------------------------------------------------- Brian Tanaka - btanaka@well.com - http://www.well.com/user/btanaka/ - --------------------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 25 Feb 2002 21:02:28 -0300 From: "cdrv" Subject: Re: Anyone have 35 Grand handy? please,please,please, a Tori trivia! :) Daniel - ----- Original Message ----- From: To: ; Sent: Monday, February 25, 2002 3:19 AM Subject: Anyone have 35 Grand handy? > > Hi ya EWF, > > I'm in awe. > > > eBay item 1516003627 (Ends Feb-27-02 17:13:24 PST ) - Fine Bosendorfer Grand > Piano - fully Restored > > http://cgi.ebay.com/aw-cgi/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=1516003627 > > And I don't even play piano!
