Do you also think that you can have such an emotional bond with a song that everytime you hear that song it makes you cry? I was also wondering do you think Tori realizes that her music doesn't only help with the healing of people who have been physically abused through a sexual violation but someone that has dealt with some type of abuse, whether it be emotional or physical? Okay I would appreciate any answer to any of these questions another little faerie Sara ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 15 Apr 1999 08:59:32 EDT From: SpArRk658@aol.com Subject: Mp3 Page Hi guys. I'm new to this list, I've been on tori-boot for a long time now, but I decided to join this one too. I just wanted to let you guys know that I have a Tori mp3 page if you'd like to visit.

WOULDNT THAT BE NICE? but like sara was saying, its the fact that i feel she is so human that makes me love her even more. because we talked about philosophy and life, my dreams and aspirations, her failures and mistakes, and the lessons we've learned. more than anyhting, if i had the chance to meet tori (i eman actually have some sort of conversation, not just a 'hi! ohmygodiloveyousomuch, willyousing/signthisforme? type thing) i would really just want to talk to her and kind of soak in the glory of the fact that she IS a human being, and how happy i am that i am too because wonderful people really do exsist. anyway. that is my dream in detail and my little explanation. thanks for reading if you did, tis much apreciated. love a girl, lisa anne ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 14 Apr 1999 23:38:20 EDT From: Fiveginst1@aol.com Subject: benefit show... this is kind of tori related. i was wondering that if any toriphiles from the suburban philadelphia and delaware area would go to a RAINN benefit show that i'm setting up. my band is gonna play and i've gotta get 4-5 more original (sorry no cover) bands (i've got several local bands in mind but want to get a local band with a following to headline). i'm gonna try to setup a rock show (in the style of pearl jam, stp, black lab, bush, etc.) cause there are no real rock shows around here (all punk and hardcore). anyway, back to the main topic, would any toriphiles show up to support this more than worthy cause? also, if you're in a band and are interested in playing, please e-mail me privately (fiveginst1@aol.com) to get more info. thanx for putting up with my sometimes wandering message. love ~~jayson p.s. i wanna try and get the show to happen in mid-summer ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 15 Apr 1999 16:30:47 EDT From: GonaTwinkl@aol.com Subject: Re: why i won't meet tori In a message dated 99-04-12 23:26:08 EDT, chutzpahmoo@mail.utexas.edu writes: << > I completely understand what you're saying. I am also hesitant to meet > Tori because I would not know how to express myself in words. I know >> See, that's kinda why I like what I did the first time I met tori. I sent a letter to a friend to deliver to tori requesting a song (if she knew it), but the problem was is that my friend accidentally kept forgetting to give it to her! well, this is 4 days into the tour, mind you, so it's understandable. So my friend comes up to chicago after the 1st two shows and we get ready to go to Rosemont, and she's telling me about how she's forgotten and all and I'm like, it's all good. (She'd been to the first 3 shows and had been to all the meet'n'greets, but never with the letter) So the night before the Rosemont show, in Ames, IA, she's all telling tori about her friend in Chicago (that would be me =) and how it's gonna be his first show and all and he want's to hear "Puff the MAgic Dragon" (if tori knows it) because it's one of his fave little songs, etc, and tori's all like, umm, yeah, if I KNEW it. so needless to say it didn't get played. But when I met her the next night, I was all like, hi tori, I'm the friend who wanted to hear "Puff" and she just smiled at me and chuckled (only I don't really see her chuckling. maybe giggled) and then she told me about her trip to Hona-Lee (sp?) and it was really cool. and I got a great autograph that says "Puff" and a smilie and her name. so, try this. =) maybe it'd help, cause you'd get some of the anxiety out. Oh, and she remembered me at the next two shows I went to because of this ;) ~* jo§h ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 15 Apr 1999 21:50:18 EDT From: Dink6@aol.com Subject: Re: meeting Tori In a message dated 4/15/99 4:54:25 PM Eastern Daylight Time, Dink6@aol.com writes: << i'm obsessed really, >> ehem...what i meant to say was, " i'm NOT obsessed, really...." love a girl, lisa anne ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 15 Apr 1999 20:06:06 EDT From: Fiveginst1@aol.com Subject: benefit part 2 okay, minor set back. i was trying to get the show at the ywca in west chester BUT they're booked till september so the earliest date i ccan get is sept. 18th. if anyone from the delaware/chester county area knows of any locations for what has the potential to be a large show please e-mail me privately! thanks to everyone who responded! i'll keep everyone informed. ~~jayson ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 15 Apr 1999 17:30:42 -0500 (EST) From: Jennifer Lynn Roth Subject: Re: why i won't meet tori I'm sorry if this is repeated because I haven't thouroughly read all the posts on this subject, but I'm not sure just MEETING Tori would be satisfying to me. I mean, it would be amazing, but I just KNOW I would want more. I would want to be friends, keep in touch, etc. Just meeting her and being reaffirmed that everything I know about her beauty (inside and out) is completely true and then having to go on my merry way would maybe just make me really depressed. I've met celebrities before and just felt totally unfulfilled.
