Hm, I feel the same way.. we hardly ever get to see Tori on the telly in England/Europe if you don't have MTV etc.. this is a sort of treat for us.. but I still sympathise. BTW, I'm very very very happy cos I went to a record fair and got the China UK single and the limited edition Cornflake Girl CD for 38 quid. They're so rare I never thought I'd see them in my lifetime. They also had the limited edition SATY & Winter UK singles but as I'm skint i didn't have a spare 100 pounds to buy them all.. sigh.... it's hard being a Toriphile.

There has been only one American video release, and that was Little Earthquakes 5 years ago! As for MTV they *NEVER* play Tori videos, just an occasional commercial, and there was the Unplugged thingy last year, that was shown in Europe.... WE did luck out on the tour since Tori did extensive dates here. But we don't have any advantage when it comes to official video releases. I am happy for Australia...I don't know if the video will be released there, but they are on the PAL system I believe so they should be able to play this video. They deserve it more than anyone because Tori did not tour there last year. Still, I find this too frustrating...

Ah, but unlike the US, the vast majority of people in the UK don't have access to MTV Europe directly. When Unplugged was shown, I asked about three separate people who have satellite TV to tape it for me, and none of them did, so I still haven't seen it. :( Paul - -+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+- "This is what you get when you mess with us" Radiohead, "Karma Police" - -+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+- The World Of Grendel : http://www.dur.ac.uk/~d550du The World of Tori : http://toristuff.home.ml.org - -+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+- "The elite is by definition a minority" ------------------------------ Date: Sat, 11 Oct 1997 18:39:51 +0100 From: Dennis Snelders Subject: Tori Calendar 1998 Hi!

I think web rings are cool. I belong to 5 myself {all of them to do with Tori} and not one of them are like any of the other. If you don't like webrings, don't participate in them. Simple as that. Okay, I'm done now. This is not a personal thing. I just don't think things like webrings should be slammed on...it's like a really irritating song on the radio...if you don't like it, change the channel! Thanks..
