Cool, thanks for that. I see here in D.C. it's on the NBC affiliate WRC channel 4: Wild Web Sun, Jan 9th at 2:30 am on WRC (4) Mon, Jan 10th at 1:00 am on WRC (4) (I searched this out at http://www.tvquest.com/ and confirmed these times at WRC's website.) > i'm guessing this is a repeat since i have a vague memory of hearing > about this before, but i couldn't find anything about it on the dent > to confirm my suspicions. anyone have any details? I don't recall hearing about it before, even though there was a crew affiliated with them at the Mansfield, Mass. show of 8/31/99. (They told me they were there to do a story on the MP3 opening act.) Anyhow, I found a website for the program and did a search for "Amos" and came up with three hits-- http://www.wildweb.com/theshow/219r/site_o_week/index.html http://www.wildweb.com/theshow/music/108/site_o_week/index.html http://www.wildweb.com/theshow/music/113/site_o_week/index.html It all seems to be pretty tangential stuff, but who knows. The link for the "features of the week" is a dead link. Pretty cool for a show about the internet, huh? ;-) Be seeing you, Richard Handal, H.G. ------------------------------ Date: Sat, 8 Jan 2000 05:37:56 -0500 (EST) From: Richard Handal Subject: Re: tori on tv Jodi-0 asked: > last night i caught the last 5 minutes or so of an interview with > tori on the WB network on a show called "Hanging With (somebody)"...i > forget the name... Byron Allen. The show is actually titled "Kickin' It" (with Byron Allen). That *was* the show, wasn't it, Jodi-0? > ...anyway, i was wondering if anyone had seen this as well, and if > anyone knows if it will re-air? also, is there a performance, or is > it just interview? I had coffee earlier the evening you posted this with a friend of mine who mentioned seeing this over the weekend in Baltimore on WNUV, channel 54, which is also with the WB TV network. It took me a while on the web before I figured out what the deal was with the program itself and tracked down the production company. I was waiting for them to call me back with a little more detail before I posted about this, but I give up. I'm not calling them back again. Here's what I know now. Tori was on episode #205 of this program, and the woman in the production company's office said it is not going to be rerun again, but that tapes can be ordered from them for $19.95. Here is the name, address and phone number of the production company of "Kickin' it"-- CF Entertainment Inc. 9903 Santa Monica Blvd., Suite 418 Beverly Hills, CA 90210 (310) 277-3500 I wanted to know if postage and handling was extra, but as I say, they didn't call me back after I spoke with them the first time. The woman I spoke with there said Tori was also on another show they produce titled "Every Woman." If anyone calls CF Entertainment to ask about getting a tape of "Kickin' It" I encourage you to ask for more information about the "Every Woman" episode with Tori. I'd like to know the original air date, and, to order a tape of it, one would need to have the episode number. Thanks in advance to anyone doing this. Hopefully, they'll have their episode guide more handy when you call than they did when *I* called. Here's the URL for a website with some background about the TV show "Every Woman." My friend gave me a hilarious description of that "Kickin' It" interview. (There was no performance.) From the description my friend gave this may rival the interview on The Daily Show as the stupidest TV interview with which Tori has ever been inflicted. I'm dying to see it and get a copy of it. :-) Tori obviously had the same eye make-up that she was wearing on The Tonight Show of September 21, 1999, so it's a good bet that this was the taping date of this program. It was first aired in early October. I've included below the information reported about this from The Dent. Be seeing you, Richard Handal, H.G. _______________________________________________________________________ http://members.aye.net/~mikewhy/tvoct99.html [...] Kickin It With Byron Allen On or around October 2, 1999 There was a short 4 to 6 minute interview with Tori on the syndicated TV show "Kickin It With Byron Allen." It was shown at various times in early October 1999. The interview included clips of the 1000 Oceans and Bliss videos. Tori discussed what it was like growing up with a minister father (He'd make her play weddings and funerals, sometimes a wedding, then a funeral on the same day. When he asked if she played the same songs at both, she said "I played different songs, but I wore the same shoes."). She also discussed how when the Muse comes you've got to stop everything and pay attention to her, and how the songs came together only after she had the title. When asked about her husband, she gave the cutest, biggest grin and said "with trust comes lust and I've never had lust this bad before." She had sparkles coming down from the corners of her eyes as if in a semblance of tears. When asked who her musical influences were, she said she'd tell you who she slept with before she'd tell who her musical influences were. Thanks to Kristi, Yvette Perez, Sherry, Tiffany and Matt Miller for the information. ------------------------------ Date: Sat, 08 Jan 2000 13:55:49 -0500 From: fartachu Subject: US concertina single shamelessly lifted from the dent's latest torinews page : Concertina Will Be Commercially Released As A Single In The U.S. In February The Official Tori Amos web site is reporting that Concertina will be released as a single commercially in the U.S. They state that it will be released on February 7, 2000, but I think they really mean Tuesday, February 8, 2000, because new releases usually come out on Tuesdays. According to the site, 'The title track will contain a brand new mix of the song (by Tori and her longtime collaborators, Mark Hawley and Marcel van Limbeek) and will also contain live versions of "Famous Blue Raincoat" and "Twinkle." As an additional bonus, the video for "Glory of the 80's" will be included. The live tracks were originally included on an import version of Tori's "Glory of the 80's" single but will be available here [U.S.] domestically for the first time.' toriamos.com includes a link where you can see the front and back covers of this single. The cover is the same as on the Concertina Promo CD . This will be the third single released from "to venus and back" in the U.S. Thanks to Micah Westfall for first telling me about this. ------------------------------ Date: Sat, 08 Jan 2000 12:24:12 -0500 From: fartachu Subject: Re: wild web/late night of course, i completely forgot to record wild web this morning (that's what happens when you stay up to 2am watching "brazil" for the umpteenth time), but fortuantely it will be on *again* next weekend (at least according to clicktv.com, though i can't help but think that's a mistake). oy! when we last left our heroes, Richard Handal exclaimed: >I don't recall hearing about it before, even though there was a crew >affiliated with them at the Mansfield, Mass. show of 8/31/99.
