Tony What's more likely? That an all-powerful mysterious god created the universe and then decided not to give any proof of his existence? Or, that he simply doesn't exist at all? And that we created him so that we wouldn't have to feel so small and alone. -Eleanor Arroway, Contact ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 12 Nov 2002 00:34:04 EST From: UnderH20thing@aol.com Subject: Re: Song Endings I noticed the exact same thing with the endings...I thought it was just me though. Hee hee! I would ask myself, "Wait...did that end the same as ______(fill in song here)." It definitely helps with the flow of the whole album. And Dez, I agree fully with you. This is definitely one of her most solid works. She REALLY hit the nail on the head with this one. ..till next time see you in the dreamtime...

It's like poetry writing. One day you grow up and realize that you can't be so egocentric anymore; it's just impossible. I have learned to mature as Tori has.

I dont know if this has been posted yet, but there are some mp3's from the Atlanta show up now in two places: www.hereinmyhead.com/sounds/index.html and www.collectingbees.com They have 6 mp3's up- wampum prayer, I can't see New York, Mother, an improv, Hey Jupiter (Dakota Version) and Famous Blue Raincoat. I don't know how good the quality is, becuase i have not listened to them yet. Just thought y'all should know. - -Peter P.S.- I can't wait until friday when i get to see Tori for the first time! If anyone needs an extra ticket to the Camden show, i have a great ticket for sale- just email me offlist at pzimmerman@standrews-de.org Thanks! ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 12 Nov 2002 08:50:54 -0500 From: "Megan Harris" Subject: Ticketmaster There were some questions/comments about ticketmaster's speediness, etc... I must say - I've always hated Ticketmaster - but they we're really great when I purchased tickets for this concert. In fact, they were great. Apparently, the credit card # I gave them didn't verify correctly. A representative from Ticketmaster called me one evening at my home and was extremely pleasent - she wanted to try and get this straightened out for me. I didn't have another credit card I could use, so she called my bank and verified the credit card that way - then called me back and let me know everything was ok. She said she would send them out to me that night, and I got them in about two days after that. I'd say from the day I placed the order to the day I recieved the tickets - it took probably less than a week. I got the tickets in the pre-order sale, don't know if that made a difference - but all in all, I had a good experience this time with Ticketmaster! Hope you all do/did as well! ~~Meg Megan S.

Some early posts regarded tracks as sounding 'commercial' - baffled me a little, IMO whatever Tori is she isn't 'commercial' in terms of earlier releases - hearing 'Carbon', 'Crazy' & 'Another Girl's Paradise' reassured me Tori's aim was still true. SW looks set to become my fave Tori cd, eclipsing Boys For Pele, which gets played round here a lot...

They amassed a great deal of money during their existence... so much that due to their secretive nature (think of them as like the Freemasons or something, they had rituals and initiations and the like) and their money, the King of France later persecuted them, took their money and either killed or banned the remaining Knights. I hope this helps! There are websites and such out there, I'm sure, that would go into more detail about this. Oh! Some also think that the Templars were the guards of the Holy Grail, which is why you see a Templar Knight at the end of Indiana Jones and The Last Crusade. :) - --Noelle ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 12 Nov 2002 20:25:56 -0800 (PST) From: "K.
