I was wondering if Tori allows taping at her shows or not or if she's ever specifically said one way or the other. Thanks. Tom M.

If you're interested in taping and trading Tori bootlegs, you might want to head over to the tori-boot mailing list . /nm ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 7 Jan 2005 14:45:04 -0500 From: bisontentacle Subject: Re: Tori taping policy one time at band camp, Nadyne Mielke (nadyne@little-blue-world.org) said: >Tori does not allow, and has never allowed, taping of her shows. however, she has not taken any steps to prevent people from stealth recording her concerts and seems, to me anyway, to passively approve or not care that it happens. i think, basically, as long as someone can thwart venue security, they don't appear to have a significant issue with it. also, while i don't have the exact quotes handy, she's said positive stuff about live recordings. the two that come to mind, which i'm paraphrasing, are "you're nobody until you've been bootleggged" in reaction to the first bootleg, _a kiss on the glass_, and calling them useful things in response to someone who made a request for a song she covered and giving her a bootleg to help refresh her memory. >If you're interested in taping and trading Tori bootlegs, you might want to >head over to the tori-boot mailing list >. though, of course, it's a perfectly acceptable topic of discussion here too. ;) woj ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 07 Jan 2005 15:42:07 -0500 From: "yes said" Subject: Re: Tori taping policy I asked Tori about releasing more live cds and about fans taping shows back in 2001 and she said, "just let me do my thing, and I'll let you guys do your thing." jason t o r i p h o r i a www.yessaid.com woj said this stuff: >however, she has not taken any steps to prevent people from stealth >recording her concerts and seems, to me anyway, to passively approve or >not care that it happens. i think, basically, as long as someone can >thwart venue security, they don't appear to have a significant issue >with it. > >also, while i don't have the exact quotes handy, she's said positive >stuff about live recordings. the two that come to mind, which i'm >paraphrasing, are "you're nobody until you've been bootleggged" in >reaction to the first bootleg, _a kiss on the glass_, and calling them >useful things in response to someone who made a request for a song she >covered and giving her a bootleg to help refresh her memory. > > >If you're interested in taping and trading Tori bootlegs, you might want >to > >head over to the tori-boot mailing list > >. > >though, of course, it's a perfectly acceptable topic of discussion here >too. ;) > >woj ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 7 Jan 2005 12:56:55 -0800 (PST) From: e m Subject: Re: Tori taping policy yes, tori does not allow it, but i don't seem to get the impression that she has security hunting the tapers down. the impression i get as to why she does not approve is the lack of control she has over her music being distributed, the quality of the recording, etc. she's a bit of a perfectionist. as for the quote that woj gave us i think was from Robert Plant consoling her when she was upset about finding out that her shows were being taped. - -ellen ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 07 Jan 2005 15:29:26 -0500 From: "Peter Zimmerman" Subject: Re: Tori taping policy bisontentacle on Friday, January 7, 2005 at 2:45 PM -0500 wrote: >"you're nobody until you've been bootleggged" in >reaction to the first bootleg, _a kiss on the glass_, and calling them >useful things in response to someone who made a request for a song she >covered and giving her a bootleg to help refresh her memory. woj- I think the second thing was regarding "Boys In The Trees" (a cover of the Carly Simon song) which she played in Oakland on the StrangeLittleTour on November 11, 2001. Also, I think when she was saying "You're nobody until you've been bootlegged" was what someone (maybe Robert Plant?) said to her... - -Peter ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 7 Jan 2005 19:40:24 -0500 From: bisontentacle Subject: Re: Tori taping policy one time at band camp, e m (crysteleni@yahoo.com) said: >as for the quote that woj gave us i think was from >Robert Plant consoling her when she was upset about >finding out that her shows were being taped. oh yeah -- duh! i knew that. temporary brain fart. here's the quote: "There are 23 bootlegs now," Amos says ruefully. "Robert Plant came home with a bootleg video and said 'Tori, you've made it. You're nothing until you've been bootlegged.' So I've started to feel better about it. But they're such poor quality that I'm like, 'Why don't they buy the English import that has seven or eight tracks live that are recorded great?" - -- Tori; Illinois Entertainer, Aug 1994 found at . woj ------------------------------ End of precious-things-digest V10 #3 ************************************
