please? can someone PLEASE explain that seating chart? it makes no sense. no sense at all to me. could some kind soul please e-mail me back to explain that? next, i get out of school at 2:40 pm, and get home at 3:15. my adult is picking me up from limerick at 5:30, and we'll get there around 6:45. will that be enough time to get our seats? get situated? also, if you are going, no matter when you find out, tell me. i want to maybe get together before or after, sometime. or just be able to identify some people, make friends. i realize i'm stressing a little less than two months in advance, but the seat thing has to be solved by friday (ticket day!). i just want to get this together as soon as i can. peace, manda c 1-bookstore has limited amount of discounted tickets 2- etc is a lot of little lehigh valley stores like a book, record, sports, that i knew i wouldn't get tickets from, so i didn't bother to write them down, i forgot about you guys, sorry) ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 29 Sep 1998 18:46:55 -0400 (EDT) From: Ellen Morris Subject: my $.02 right now on ultrasound hi all, i dont talk too much, so i want to say first of all, that even though i dont write too much, i do enjoy all your precious words & usually they do envoke some response, but i am usually quite shy. but today the extraverted ellen is here! now this is just a little reaction to Ultrasound & the discussion about it on the list: my first initial reaction when the show was over was, thats it. that wasnt enough to satisfy me babe! although what they did , they did well i think. well not MTV so much, but the toriphiles themselves. i think that it said a lot of mtv's understanding of tori that they had the toriphiles tell the story, that is that they know that her "fans" and her relationship with them are something special and unique about her. to reiterate what many have said, it was clearly not enough. it was very lacking and almost empty and rushed b/c it was trying to put so much into a box too small to contain all that is tori and the toriphile world. of course, i dont think they were even trying, nor could they ever... i agree that mtv definately has a lack of quality programing happening and i have been complaining and whining about it for years. its not only what they play, its the lack of variety, and the basci redundancy of their videos they put into rotation. but what they play is also ususally "skata" (pardon my greek !). and to be honest, although i would LOOOOVE to see more tori and other arists that i appreciate shown more, i think i would also be sadened that she would be grouped with all the other mainstream "skata" that mtv is so very famous for... my attitiude is basically, if its on mtv, chances are , its not true art. so lets try and look on the bright side or tori's videos not being played on mtv. i know it still sux we dont get to see her as much they show us "poop daddy" and "backstreet bastards". but unless they totally change their image and start playing more good music and less money making music we arent going to. here is just a tangent - anyone out ther have M2? and if so how is it and is there more tori?????? mucha tori agape(much tori love), elenitsa _______________________________________--------------_____________________ Beauty endures for as long as it can be seen; goodness, beautiful today, will remain so tomorrow - -sappho _______________----------_________________________________ ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 29 Sep 1998 16:08:59 -0700 (PDT) From: Greg Burrell Subject: Tori News Update from RDT Hi Everybody, 9/29/98 SCHEDULE CHANGES: Tori's management just phoned me with some last-minute tour schedule changes: CANCELLED: The 11/21 concert in Ann Arbor, MI has been cancelled.

ADDED: 11/24 in Newark, DE at the Carpenter Center. Tickets go on sale 10/2.

WEST LAFAYETTE, IN (Purdue University) Tori's management wasn't ready to comment on this date but Purdue's newspaper, "The Exponent", announced that tickets will go on sale to students on October 8. I don't yet know when they will go on sale to the general public. Students should read the web page at: http://www.purdueexponent.org/archives/Sept23_98/features/tori.html for details on how to buy tickets. EAU CLAIR, WI On sale to students 10/2. On sale to general public 10/5. Students should check with the school for details. TELEVISION Tori's management says they are still working on the segment for CNN's "Entertainment Weekly". They don't know when it will air. Also, they don't yet know when the Roseanne show featuring Tori will air. -Greg Burrell The Official Tori Amos Fanzine News Editor http://www.toriamos.org Really Deep Thoughts ------------------------------ End of precious-things-digest V3 #345 *************************************
