Dear EWF's, I have ORCHESTRA seats for both the CAMDEN and PROVIDENCE shows that I need to sell! Providence- 2 sets of 2 tickets for Providence- only 1 row apart from each other- Rows O & P FRONT ORCHESTRA The P ones are right on the aisle- so you can run up to the stage and see Tori UP CLOSE!!! YAY! Camden- Section 100, Row F, seats 11 and 12 which is 6 rows from the STAGE! Also, they are on the right side, which means you get to see Tori's FACE, not BACK :) Section 104, Row Q, seats 27 and 28 Section 103, Row M, seats 1 and 2- also on the aisle so you can run up and see Tori CLOSE! Thanks for reading this and I hope I have some tickets that you want and need!

YAY! I hope you are joking. Stage rushing is horrible and I have no respect for people who do it. I can't believe you would encourage that type of behavior. ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 4 Oct 2002 10:01:51 -0700 From: "Tony Fernandes" Subject: Fw: A Sorta Fairytale wrote: "CDNow.com, Amazon.com, Buy.com & Tower Records all say that A Sorta Fairytale will be out on the 14th and that it lists for $12.99." CD Now lists two versions of it...one for $9.49 and one for $11.99. There doesn't seem to be any explanation as to why & what the differences may be between the two. The $9.49 one says it has an Oct. 14 release and the other has a Oct. 22 release. Anyone? Tony What's more likely? That an all-powerful mysterious god created the universe and then decided not to give any proof of his existence? Or, that he simply doesn't exist at all? And that we created him so that we wouldn't have to feel so small and alone. -Eleanor Arroway, Contact ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 04 Oct 2002 20:02:01 +0000 From: "Tom xxxxx" Subject: how'd it go? Hey everyone: How'd you all do in the recent presales? I did OK for Camden. I'm on the right side about 25 rows back. Not terrific but not bad. A friend is going to see if she can do better during the regular sale, and if so, I'll try to sell these. Did ticketbastard go haywire during the first few minutes of the presale for you? It did for me, giving me several different errors. It went smoothly at about 10:05 or so. And now...for the speculation about what song Tori will open this tour's shows with. New or old? Personally, I'm hoping for something off Choirgirl(Spark, Black-Dove, Cruel, Raspberry Swirl, iieee), CALS, or Muhammad My Friend. However, I'm betting it'll be a song off of Scarlet's Walk. And, after being completely left out last tour, can we even hope that Cornflake Girl, Blood Roses, and Song for Eric will reappear this tour? toodles, Tom--already getting crazy excited for this show!

Woj, thank you very much for explaining Tori tour sponsorship stuff to me. it's verily appreciated.. :) I've never been to A CONCERT--at all ever ever--much less Tori so I'm trying to learn and figure out as much as I can about this. The reason why I asked about sponsors is because I've seen televised concerts of people like Michael Jackson or N'Sync or even Woodstock '94 (for example) where everywhere but on the stage itself.. there were sponsor names emblazoned on everything that they could put them onto and I was wondering if that was the case with Tori--whether she liked it or not. Thanks. :) Sincerely, Cyndi S.

Do. Not. Describe. Myself." ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 04 Oct 2002 22:26:56 -0400 From: dances with virgos Subject: cleveland seating information during the cleveland presale, the seats that were being offered by tickets.com had very little relation to the seating chart. a phone call to the state theater box office confirmed that the seating chart online was *wrong*. unfortunately, there is no correct seating chart online at all. so, i got the box office to send me a fax of the correct chart which i have scanned. unfortunately, scanning faxes does not result in particularly legible images, so i'll describe the seat numbering as well. it would be best to have the scans open in a separate window while reading the description though. "house left" and "house right" are labelled on the chart and that is the reference point that i describe the numbering from. i'm sorry if this is confusing so feel free to ask questions. first, the floor: http://www.smoe.org/woj/state_floor.gif (47KB) seats numbered in the 100s are house left. seats are numbered from 101 on the inner left aisle. the width of the inner house left section is variable - -- it's as narrow five seats in some of the front rows and widens to 14 seats at the back of the theater. seats numbered above 150 are far house left starting from 151 on the outer left aisle. in the center, the seats start from 201 on the house left side of the center section. in row A, there are nine seats, ten in row B, eleven in rows C-E, twelve in row F, thirteen in G-J, and fourteen in rows K-UU. house right is the exact opposite of house left: seats start from 301 on the near right aisle and from 351 on the far right aisle and increment upwards as you go away from the center. the lower box seats are A (10 seats), B (12 seats) and C (10 seats) house left and D (10), E (12), F (10) house right. and in the balcony: http://www.smoe.org/woj/state_balc.gif (39KB) the loge boxes are numbered somewhat strangely each box has a number. boxes are numbered from 401 on the house left side in the front to 803 on the house right side in the back. each box has four seats in it. i think the box numbers should be legible in the scan. in the mezzanine and balcony, each section between aisles is numbered in a different hundred: 400s are far house left, 500s are near house left, 600s are center, 700s near house right and 800s far house left. the 400s start at 401 on the outer house left aisle and count outwards. the 500s start at 501 on the inner house left aisle and count outwards. the 600s start at 601 on the inner house left aisle and count towards house right (i.e., the other direction from the 400s and 500s). the 700s start at 701 on the inner house right aisle and count outwards. the 800s start at 801 on the outer house right aisle and count outwards. finally, upper boxes are AA (6 seats), BB (9 seats), CC (8 seats) house left and DD (6), EE (9), FF (8) house right. hope this helps! woj ------------------------------ Date: Sat, 05 Oct 2002 00:01:31 -0400 From: dances with virgos Subject: presale for the week of october 7th three more presales have been listed at http://www2.fanscape.com/toriamos/tour/ : 11/23 columbus - october 10th, 10am eastern 11/27 chicago - october 10th, 10am central 11/30 minneapolis - october 10th, 10 am central none of these shows have ticket-buying links yet, but i think all three will be for sale on ticketmaster. woj ------------------------------ End of precious-things-digest V7 #231 *************************************
