I know that it is coming through Atlanta, GA as of last month. I didn't know that Tori would be playing. Antone else from Atlanta want to go if it comes through here. Also, does anyone from Atlanta have a car and want to take a road trip to see Tori in NY in January?

Well, first of all, it's not Joni Mitchell's "version" of "A Case Of You" -- that's the original!!! And I'd be surprised if Joni even knew that Tori had done a cover of the song. I will agree that the selection of what went on the "Hits" and "Misses" discs was rather arcane in spots, though.

That's funny... a friend of mine sings with a band of eminent microbiology professors at Yale (called The Cellmates... ugh...), and they do a version of "Whole Lotta Love" that segues into "God" in the middle, then slides back to "Whole Lotta Love" at the end. It works really well. Chuck posted: >Does anyone know what classical music Tori likes to play, if any?

I think she's mentioned in interviews that she likes to play Bartok. >Does anyone remember way way way back around p-t-digest # 3 or 4 someone >(Meredith was it you?) writing about a comparison between Tori and Mozart >(esp. the fact of both having been child prodigies)?

That would be wonderful.
