I am so tired, though. I couldn't personalize. I have to get up in a couple of hours to hit the gym. Tomorrow is Portland. Busy, busy day. I hope to have pics, too. Love, Dez Wow! Amazing day and night in Seattle. I'm not sure how the private concert at the Space Needle went. I have not had a chance to talk to anyone who was there, yet. I recorded the Mountain Music Lounge performance from the radio. She performed three songs and answered some questions. I cannot remember right now all of the songs as it is now 2:30 A. M. I know one was "Strange" and "Crazy" ... what was the other? Sorry. Then, she said that she is going to spend Christmas on the boat with her parents. She also mentioned that Tash was throwing a Christmas party for the crew and her close friends after the second L. A. show. There were pink trees in the W. Hotel that sparked that conversation. Tash wants a pink Christmas with Hello Kitty and Barbie stickers. Very cute story... I'm not sure how soon I could get a transcript for you. But, that is a touch on the airing. There was a nice intimate crowd for the meet & greet. We were frozen numb, but, excited. We were told no personal PICS would be taken w/ ourselves and Tori, but that we could take PICS from afar. I think quite a few people got autographs. This time around, I figured I had enough autographs. I just brought snickerdoodle cookies, a Hello Kitty U. S. A. book w/ stickers for Tori and Tash, and a Christmas Marvin Martian for Mark. I was pleased to see Marvin w/ Mark in the sound area after the show. He thanked me for Marvin. How pleasant to know the gift was welcomed... Tori was dressed in this beautiful dark gray (w/ a darker pattern on it) long coat. Hopefully, my PICS will turn out and I can post them soon. Tori was striking as always, beautiful skin, lit up eyes, smiles ... you know. She laughed when I said that I could not push the button to take the picture because my hands were numb. I did not hear any of her conversations. She said, "Hi, how are you?" It was sweet and short, but worth the wait. Showtime came a bit later. Howie Day: amazing man. He is more relaxed this end of the tour. He is a genius. I think many had misjudged what he had going on. He is a great talent and performer. Tori Time: First, let me write the set list. Then, I'll add some comments later. 1. Wampum Prayer 2. A Sorta Fairytale 3. Little Earthquakes 4. Caught A. Lite Sneeze 5. Sweet Sangria 6. Take to the Sky 7. Liquid Diamonds 8. Pancake 9. Wednesday 10. "I have a secret..." improv 11. Baker, Baker 12. Carbon 13. Landslide 14. Northern Lad 15. Concertina 16. Sugar 17. Cornflake Girl 18. Precious Things 19. I Can't See New York 20. Spring Haze Encore 21. Taxi Ride 22. The Waitress Second Encore 23. Tear in Your Hand 24. Your Cloud Okay, all that being said. Tori was wearing dark boots (brown I think) w/ some sort of cutoff pants ... then, a long dress-like shirt that had Steve Nicks flowing sleeves (white) and this print on it ... beige (from what I could tell in stage light) shades, circles on her right side and this scalloped, almost flowery pattern on her left toward her shoulder. "Take to the Sky" I noticed had a really neat jazzy groove to it. This song has morphed. "I have a secret" song was cute then serious. "Baker, Baker" little messup on line, then sang something like, "Maybe we could change this line..." "Landslide" pleasant surprise ... the best version I've heard her do of this cover. "Northern Lad" in the very first bars sounded a lot like "Only Women Bleed," but no, it was indeed "N. L." "Cornflake Girl" it took me a second because no Caton anymore, but, it's coming along. "I Can't See N. Y." was so beautiful w/ the lighting and the rumbling bass sounded like a plane engine ... very haunting. The segue right into "Spring Haze" well... I have always felt them as sister songs. Somewhere during the course of the show Tori mentioned how nice it was to be on this coast "finally." Didn't bash the East ... just relieved, possibly more at home here, who knows. After the encore, the crowd from the back rushed the front where I was ... very hard to see ... extremely hard to take good pictures. Keep a little consideration for others when you wear big hair to a show. If you're going to dance ... elbows in your neighbor's side, not always appreciated. It was a great audience overall, though. Howie Day seemed a little surprised at the warm welcome. After the show, I met Howie Day ... very warm and funny guy. He signed his CD for me. ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 11 Dec 2002 06:35:33 EST From: JNe9027355@aol.com Subject: Re: precious-things-digest V7 #295 In a message dated 12/10/02 10:21:22 PM Pacific Standard Time, owner-precious-things-digest@smoe.org writes: > > blue skies was done in 1996 (or maybe even late 1995, > i forget). and it's BT featuring tori, not the other > way round! she improvved some lyrics over his song > Divinity, then he took them, chopped them up and wrote > a completely new song around it. there are some > awesome stories associated w/ the song -- check out > the liner notes for BT's new greatest hits CD, 10 > Years in the Life, for one of them. > > :) where can i read all the stories with the song? ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 11 Dec 2002 08:36:29 -0500 From: Cyndi S Crawford Subject: Re: help :) >Yeah, It's 2 a.m. and I'm still up and psyched out.

"Looking For Landmarks" also includes Tori alum Matt Chamberlain. I don't know if this has been discussed before as i am new to the list. It's a great album that Tori fans will love. The Loons will perform LIVE on KEXP radio on Thursday the 12th at 5pm (pacific). In Seattle that's 90.3 FM. For everyone else, it will be simulcast on the internet at http://kexp.org.

Not random. It's great for cold days! from Neil Gaiman's journal: Okay. Duncan is Toris personal chef. This is the drink he makes for her, and is posted with his permission. He says to make sure its not too hot when you drink it, and he adds that an ice-pack on the throat for about 20 minutes after coming off stage can reduce inflammation of the vocal chords.
