Sounds like it > is only limited by the number of people who will be buying it. Does > anyone disagree??? I do, but only because I know the score with this particular release. It is actually, legimitately, genuinely going to be a limited edition. If you want it in the first couple of weeks, I really doubt you'll have any problems. If you want it in six months time, it'll be a different story. Sony UK Employees haven't been allowed to order the limited version of the album for free (well, they've been told they can order it, but won't get it!), which is usually a good indication that they actually have a limited quantity. So certainly here in the UK, I reckon it'll be scarce within a couple of months. So don't forget to buy two to leave one wrapped... ;) UK toriphiles who want in on the US Ltd. edition action might be interested to know that www.play.com are shipping them already.

Hi Guys, I had a panic moment today when I inserted the UK CDs and found no data session... nothing. No enhanced portion. Confused, I made the assumption that Scarlet's Web isn't on the UK version. I was wrong. Basically, it works like this: You go to the web-site, download a Shockwave Applet and it checks the CD in your drive is the correct one, and by doing that allows you access. No need for a multimedia portion on the CD. So don't panic on Monday / Tuesday when there's no data session on your CD. There isn't meant to be one! Hope that clears things up a bit.

And though I understand that she didn't mention your name, I found that the lyrics to her song "Concertina" reflect the story you told in DreamHunters. The note to you in the back of the CD booklet also references Dreamhunters. Am I totally off the mark here? Or is there a connection between song and story? Just Curious. Kathryn I think you may be reaching for something that isn't there. On To Venus and Back I was in a song called Zero Point , which never made it onto the CD and was too long to be a B side, and back then there wasn't a Scarlet's Web for the Tombigbees to go to. (Scarlet's Web is the online place Tori's made for the CD which contains lots of background material in addition to several songs that were recorded for Scarlet's Walk but which didn't make it onto the album. I think you'll need a Scarlet's Walk CD to access it.) ===== - --- even a glamorous Bitch can be in need this is where you know the Honey from the Killer Bees Tori Amos Taxi Ride Y!

Hey guys, Is it a confirmed fact that Scarlet's Stories will *only* be distributed through the indie stores listed at the-ird.com? If so, I find this arrangement vaguely annoying... ~~M~ ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 25 Oct 2002 00:59:23 -0400 From: guapo stick Subject: Re: Availability of Scarlet's Stories? when we last left our heroes, Mariana Furtado (up_on_the_101@yahoo.com) exclaimed: >Is it a confirmed fact that Scarlet's Stories will >*only* be distributed through the indie stores listed >at the-ird.com? well, hmv.com is not on the list, but they are giving away copies of _scarlet stories_, so i'm not sure that this is an exclusively indie thing. remember: last album, the download cards were supposed to be an indie-only promotion, but i think they were pretty widely available, right? woj ------------------------------ End of precious-things-digest V7 #250 *************************************
