I recently saw Tori in Denver (Dec 5). While the show was great, I was totally bummed when Tori didn't come out after the show. I really wanted my friend to see Tori. When we got to the area by the tour buses, I instantly knew something wasn't right because there was no security fencing to be seen. For anybody who's had the opportunity to see Tori after a show, there's always *some* kind of barrier. After a few minutes security made everyone move back about 20 feet. Then move further back to the sidewalk. Then move even further back to the street. Then they ran everyone off when they announced Tori would not be coming out. WTF?! Apparently this was planned in some way. Is this a new thing for Tori not to meet her fans? Has anyone heard about this at other shows? I'm going to see her again on Dec. 16 in AZ, and hope she does come out after the show.

(which seems wayyy tooo lonnggg agoo!) I had a friend who played piano as well and also was a Tori fan, and she used to say that her parents would yell at her anytime they saw her playing like that.. "Stop trying to be like Tori!" they yould yell. Hey - I would rather my kid be like Tori than someone like Christina Aguilera. I mean, have your sexuality. Just dont overdo it. Use it wisely, and in the smartest way possible. Be sexy with your words and your tongue. not your body, per se. Cyndi commented: << o_O huh.. kewl.. I'm 5'7".. shortest one in my family. lol.. does that count? or am I too tall?>>> I say that its comfortable, and Im 5 feet tall. :) the shortest one in my family too Cyndi! And no you aren't too tall, unless you stand next to me of course! ;) Heehee. I remember that I used to think that Tori was like 5'7" or so. Until one day someone said that she was little like me! (Of course in our picture, she is 2 inches taller than me) which is right! We musta both been sporting the same height heels that night :) then Linda added: <<Haha, when I read that response from littlebluegirl, I was smacking myself for not remembering the fact that I picked up the bench-straddling technique, too. >> I love it really. And I totally agree with you too Linda, although Im not left-handed, Im not too coordinated with the keys. Its the whole playing two different things with each hand at the same time! :( I can pat my head and rub my belly ok, but play something with my left hand slower than the right, forget it. So I suck at Tori music. :( Then I just recently got that Tori Amos for easy Piano book, and im mad, since they transposed all the songs into "easier" keys. Now come on, when do we ever see Tori playing the majority of the naturals as opposed to the incidentals? (white versus black keys) I was mad that they changed Icicle .. oh well, I will have to refer to the "harder" book I guess for the real sound :) blah. But yes, Linda I agree, its all about *HOW* you present it. I can sit at the piano and improv all the way, and make it *LOOK* like I was playing a *real* piece :) Its all about the emotion, cocking of the head .. (i always loved that expression!), and how you appear to know a piece well :) hehehe. Lesson 1 on how to Fake the Piano by littlebluegrl :) well enough from me :) take care and faery hugs everyone! ps: wish me luck on Saturday while i have to move in the rain! ;( littlebluegrl ===== ' If I had some interesting quip to say, it would be here..

I got a question. lol.. has Tori *ever* played Datura live? ever ever? :D that is my *FAVORITE* song off of TVAB.. so that's kinda where my curiosity is coming from. :)" I dunno. I've looked for it on WINMX and i couldn't find it, but I really think it'd be an utterly fantastic song to hear live. I don't care if she has to use crib notes for all the plants, she needs to do i live. Clitoria blue pea, baby! Get out of my garden.... How Now, Brown Cow?

It's been a while since I've posted on RDT. I used to be known as ykant@aol.com and posted here in the mid 1990's and even had a Tori Amos/Sarah Mclachlan website at one time. A lot has happened since then! I lived in Daytona Beach, FL in those days and now I live here on the Monterey Peninsula in California. And it all happened from chasing after a woman:) Anyway, Tori's new cd is great and I'm looking forward to seeing her on the tour soon. take care, Charles -o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o [top] Date: Fri, 13 Dec 2002 14:42:23 -0500 From: Cyndi S Crawford <cyndi.crawford@juno.com> To: cafeatlanta@yahoogroups.com, candi4545@mcloudteleco.com, nothing@cobalty.com, torandnan@juno.com, ambie19@aol.com, torishima_eve@yahoo.com, mirandaanddaniel@cox-internet.com, sonicdissention@hotmail.com, deannamcarthur@hotmail.com, precious0147@yahoo.com, gronok@yahoo.com, acrowd49@aol.com, jcoffman@taurus.oursc.k12.ar.us, kwcraw2934@hotmail.com, kerymjj@yahoo.com.mx, kimplicity@hotmail.com, lekia_thurman@yahoo.com, mleonard55@cox.net, swts4evr@hotmail.com, raspberryswirl54@cs.com, chelleball32@hotmail.com, mindyboo20@aol.com, mjcentral@hotmail.com, mjfansreunion@yahoogroups.com, mo_ttt@yahoo.com, rdtrn@torithoughts.org, Spyderchan2@cs.com, redhotcherrie@hotmail.com, lyricallacquer@hotmail.com, royha@deepfrost.com, tinuviel55@hotmail.com, GLPdoug@MSN.com, sparker1@pdq.net, imursunshi9@hotmail.com Subject: Stop Violence Against Women http://www.lifetimetv.com/community/olc/violence/debbie_smith_pledge.html this is worth taking the time out to do. -- Cyndi ________________________________________________________________ Sign Up for Juno Platinum Internet Access Today Only $9.95 per month!

Which is your favorite album? Little Earthquakes 2. Best album art? hrm... choices choices. I like Boys from Pele and Little Earthquakes, and Under the Pink all for different reasons. I'm not as familar with all the others (although I've got a number of 'em lying around here somewhere) 3. Best album title? Boys from Pele very original that one :) 4. All time fave tori song? Winter 5. Fave song from... Little Earthquakes? Winter Under the Pink? icicle Boys For Pele? Professional Widow >From the Choirgirl Hotel? Rasberry Swirl/Spark To Venus and Back? not sure... Strange Little Girls? '97 bonnie&clyde (I think that's the name) or at least it's been stuck in my head ever since I first heard it and it won't go away it's ghostly freaky... Scarlet's Walk? --haven't heard it yet-- 6. What was your first fave Tori song? Little Earthquakes - which I still like lotsandlotsand... 7. Have you ever named a cat/car/plant after a Tori song? not...yet... 8. What other things has Tori turned you on to? delerium (delight), death, dream, destruction, despair, and desire... let's see. Raspberry swirls (the drink that is), really hum-diggety deep thoughts right now, psych wanderings, more musicians than I can keep track of and the making of music videos - which I'd like to do one of these days. oh Gaiman of course (and back again), Reznor (who I wouldn't have liked but for the folks here suggesting songs :), Eminem (who I'm actually liking some material from lately) the idea one can be part of a community the idea that one has value - EVERY one Oh, and the idea of actually -remembering- an artist. She's pretty much the first one that stood out enough to me to -remember-. > *** You Buy What You Pay For digest *** sometimes you get what you need sometimes you get what you paid for sometimes you get a memory sometimes a dream... and just sometimes, things just happen and who knows where that will lead... a future...

So, a bunch of cows and bulls are standing in a field. A huge gust of wind comes along and all the cows fall over, but the bulls just stand there, bracing themselves against the gale. All the cows stand up and go back to their chewing. Pretty soon, a tornado blows through and all of the cows are knocked to the ground, but the bulls just munch on the grass. Next, a typhoon comes through and all the cows are knocked into the next pasture. The bulls just say "MOOoo..." Finally, one of the cows walks up to one of the bulls and says, "Moo? What's with the mooing deal? How come the wind always knocks us right over and you just stand there?" "Isn't it obvious?" the bull replies. "We bulls wobble, but we won't fall down." For those of you who don't get the punch line, I feel sad for you. Very very very very sad. <sniffle> http://www.flairplc.co.uk/Brands/weebles/weebles.htm http://www.bigredtoybox.com/articles/weebleindex.shtml o-o-o o-o-o o-o-o o-o-o o-o-o o-o-o o-o-o o-o-o o-o-o o-o-o *** Brought To You By Hasbro digest *** To POST messages to this list: <rdtrn@torithoughts.org> Can't figure out how to SUB, UNSUB, or CHANGE ADDRESSES?
