2 Days of Tori!

yes

i just scored 10th row seats for tori's sunday nite show at the chicago auditorium and 11th row seats for her monday show at chicago's navy pier!

what makes it really fantastic is that sunday's show has been sold out for a while but they opened up just a few seats and i grabbed them! the monday show is selling for 50 bucks per ticket but i managed to get 2 tickets for a total of $63! what a great weekend...first a new job and now 2 great shows!

headbang

You're gonna love it. I saw her a few months ago from the 4th row. It was a great show.

After the show she received an email from Prince asking that she mail the soundboard tapes to Ohio as he never authorized the cover.

It was a full-length show. She did tons of songs, including Hey Jupiter (Dakota Mix) which was fuckin awesome.

I think the show you saw was at Riverside Church. I heard the acoustics weren't too good for her. Some said it sounded kinda shitty. What do you think?

i've seen her a bunch of times and riverside did not stand out too much. it was a great show (that goes without saying when tori is performing) but nothing stood out other than the church. i don't recall the acoustics being shitty, quite the opposite actually. i thought the sound was better thanmost venues i've been in.

last nite's showw goes down as one of the best performances i've seen her do. not the best set list, but a great performance! can't wait for tonite's show!

mad

Prince could learn a thing or two from Tori.

People tape her shows and share both mp3s and full shows in wave file format online and she doesn't reprimand her fans for it!

http://www.hereinmyhead.c...ds/sw.html

Plus, I don't think you need permission to cover, only to sample. I remember an interview with Duran Duran when they did a cover album and someone asked them about copyrights and they said it wasn't necessary, only when you sample.

Prince, I love your music, but you sure can be a censored.

I just saw Tori in San Diego and she ROCKED the house with Professional Widow!

boff drool headbang love

Plus, Tori makes it a point to meet fans before each show. There are tons of pics here of these Meet and Greet sessions:

that's because, unlike prince, tori doesn't have the mind of a "superstar". she recognizes that the people at each show have seen, very possibly, every show from each tour. i met a girl last nite who has seen 30 dates since tori started touring for scarlet's walk! excessive...maybe...but it doesn't change the fact that this girl bought 30 tickets! tori could care less if peeps record her shows or take pictures because she knows the benefits of creating a relationship with her audience. prince still thinks he is a superstar success and doesn't want to accept anything else. supporting his cult following would be like acknowledging that he isn't "the shit" as far as mainstream, commercial music is concerned.

yes, i agree, vinablue, prince needs to follow the likes of tori and the dead and phish. maybe he would begin to win back some respect from those of us who've lost it.

anyway, if i meet tori tonight after the show, i'll tell her what you said and give her a laugh! lol

lol Give her a hug for me too. I've never met her. sigh

She is so great to her fans though. I saw her meet and greet from across the street on the Strange Little Tour.

She is soooo sweet to take pics with her fans, even in the cold winter snow. And she almost always puts her head next to theirs. Such love!
