To add my $.02. This is a new way of doing things (well actually it is an old way but new to modern times). Give her and Perl Jam a break and know that the mistakes that they are making are not going to repeated on another tour. It is this "iterative" process that is a fact of life. People try something new, they examine the mistakes that are made, and they improve on them. So if things are not perfect. Please trust that Tori AND the promoters are going to examine and improve. Also, remember what we are dealing with here. They are not doing this to make it easier on us. We are dealing with an ideal. An ethical standard that states Tori's and our anger and dismay at the scalpers getting good tickets and leaving real fans out in the cold and disappointed. So if there is a little pain to uphold this standard, then so be it. So the next time you get angry at the way things are being handled, remember that she is following an ideal of hers. If you don't believe in that ideal with her, then you can ignore the small club tour and wait for the unfeeling, sterile, tainted, LARGE commercial tour. And as you walk in as part of a mass of people into a non-intimate setting, don't walk away disappointed cause it wasn't "special". If you believe in that ideal, remember that is what is important here. Not your individual "comfort". in my opinion, a little pain is worth it. I also believe that it will be worth it in the long run as everyone in the small venue quiets down and sits and listens to the music and words. And as you find yourself crying and letting go and grieving as all us Tori fans do while listening to her music. I don't think the aggravation of getting to that show is going to matter much at that cathartic point in all of our lives. If you believe in that ideal AND don't get tickets. I feel for you. But try to get the boots and listen to them at least try to bond with everyone else that way. Unfortunately, not everyone is going to be able to go, and that is sad. But have faith in the fact that if you did not get a chance to go, then someone else got that chance that probably NEEDED to go more than you. For even though I have never been to a Tori concert ever (being a recent EwF'er) I can see it being an almost mystical experience seeing all those girls brought to life. Those wonderful children that I have sung in my head and heart for the past year or so. I will try my damnedest to go but if I do not get a ticket to any of the shows, I am creating that person who gets my ticket that I would have gotten will need it more than I do. Michael J.

I was referring to the folks who were dissing Tori, AtRecs and anybody else because they couldn't get instant gratification. And the amount of agreements I recieved more than outweighed your single complaint. There is not anything *up my ass*---I don't want ignorant asses to ruin what could be a very innovative way of distributing tickets. As far as missing chances, well, I think folks will have to really work at not getting to at least one concert. Sorta like you would have to be in another galaxy to not know the venues for the Club Shows at this time. I'm just asking for patience and trust.

I'm never here, but I do so like telling other people what I like ;) As far as Sad songs go, by Tori Amos, my widening gyre includes "China,"(my "i'm sitting across the table from you and I don't know who the hell you are anymore, so this song keeps running through my head" song"SaTY," (the first one, the only one in some ways, the "headphones rocking slowly back and forth and lipsynching with all of my latent adolescent angst" song - I'm 28) and "Putting the Damage on" (hurts my heart). "Hey Jupiter" is up there, as well as "Doughnut song." Relationship trouble, anyone? "Winter" is my all-purpose sad one. Hot bath. As far as Shiny happy songs: "Talula," "CaLS," (Dancing around with girlfriends while we do girls-getting-ready-to-go-out things), "Tear in your hand" makes me happy for some reason. Probably related to being dropped on my head as an infant, and "Sweet Dreams." Sexy? "CaLS." that one really gets me slinky. What should Tori Amos sing? "Black" and "daughter" by Pearl Jam, "Tapestry" by Carole King, and "magic" by Olivia Newton-John (you can all giggle, but only for a few minutes.)

Now that I have the time to post to the list, I'm going to respond to all these threads all in one, even if some of them are over by now... Most *emotional* songs: Winter was the first Tori song that really had a big emotional effect on me. The part of the song that always does it for me is that single breath that comes after the lines "you say I wantes you to be proud, I always wanted that myself"...during the soft part right before the music swells back up again. That was the first Tori that brought tears to my eyes in 1992 when I first listened to LE. Marianne has come to have a lot of emotional significance to me because of a friend of mine named Melissa who died from diabetes at the age of 19 last winter. Talula is also associated in my mind with her because it was a favorite song of hers and she sung it acapella one night on poetry night at the cafe where we used to go and I can remember sitting there on the rust colored conctete floor at the foot of the stage watching her sing it, but while Marianne is kind of a "Sad" Melissa song, Talula fits into the happy category. Caught A Light Sneeze, Baker Baker, Hey Jupiter, Yes Anastasia, Putting The Damage On and Twinkle also come to mind as being very emotional. Most *happy* songs: Talula, as I explained above, along with Happy Phantom, Take To The Sky, Sweet Dreams, Toodles Mr Jim and Mr Zebra Most *sexy* songs: Little Amsterdam, Leather, ITSOHV, Amazing Grace/Till The Chicken, Agent Orange Often it's the quality of Tori's voice rather than the lyrics that make me think a Tori song is sexy. Songs that Tori should *cover*: The Rainbow Connection, I'm Going To Go Back There Some Day-Muppet Movie Sdtrk Shayla, Angel On The Balcony-Blondie Who Wants To Live Forever-Queen Desperado-Eagles One Love, Invincible-Pat Benatar Bachelorette, Isobel, One Day-Bjork Birthday-Sugarcubes Soho Square-Kirsty MacColl Straight To Hell-The Clash Silent Lucidity-Queensryche Rhiannon-Fleetwood Mac No Quarter, Kashmir, Gallows Pole-Led Zeppelin Eleanor Rigby, A Day In The Life- Beatles I could do this all day, but that's enough to get the idea.

Am I the only person who's disappointed in the *choice* of clubs for the club tour? Perhaps I was being silly, but I was thinking that she was trying to get back to her LE days, and that this would a decent-sized room, reasonably intimate setting, perhaps some people actually seated around tables instead of standing like sardines... When they said "club", I wasn't thinking 1000+ person capacity, neon lights, one the places where people go to see and be seen... you'd have to brave the scary Boston makeuped and costumed nightlife on Landsdowne Street just to get there... I was thinking something small and comfy and Tori-like in character. Johnny D's, or the Middle East. Or maybe if they needed capacity, a mid-sized theatre like the Somerville Theater or the Sanders Theater (where she performed in '94). (sorry to spew Boston references at everyone else...) ok, so maybe it was a futile hope. But if they were going to play clubs and limit capacity, they might as well really limit capacity and make the club a pleasant, intimate experience with tori for those who get to go. but bygone days are bygones, and I guess it's not '92 anymore... i missed my chance then. *sigh* - -abbe ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 23 Mar 1998 23:46:14 -0600 From: "Jennifer Jacobsen" Subject: cooling Will someone send me the lyrics to cooling? - -- Long afloat on shipless oceans I did all my best to smile. -- Tim Buckley: Song to the Siren ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 24 Mar 1998 00:50:58 EST From: AKlink8489 Subject: Re: a different complaint Chicago's Park West has a capacity of 750 people.
