I somehow wound up with Tori Amos tickets

And since the girlfriend kinda likes her, and especially since Ben Folds is opening, I guess I'm gonna go see her.

So anyone seen her live? Does she seriously have orgasms while playing the piano? Does she do a lot of covers (and I'm hoping she doesn't, 'cause every cover I've heard her do has been complete ass)?

Tori's not bad live. Can be really good. Tori fans, though, are not worth braving to see her.

It's kind of like this.

I am by no means a huge fan of her music, but I found myself in a similar situation to Kenny's, and I must say, she was fan-f*cking-tastic.

you're in for a world of hurt.

I dunno, I liked her the one time I saw her.

I'll take the "mass ovulation" over the opposite effect that will likely happen at every date on the Summer Sanitarium and Ozzfest tours.

It's probably a much better kind of audience to be in than a Bright Eyes crowd, too. It might be better than a goth crowd too.

Her and Ben Folds together? My roommate would shit herself for tickets to that!

(Personally, I've seen Tori once and Ben Folds thrice, and both of them were amazing performers...when I saw Tori, was surprised me most was that she actually had a sense of humor!!!)

*ahem*

"when I saw Tori, WHAT surprised me..."

same thing happened to me about six years ago. She was excellent, the fans were really annoying. Lots of gushing, over enthusiastic applause (you know what I mean), a general aire of unconditional devotion and obsession. That's fandom, I suppose, but in this instance it irritated for some reason. We went and saw Tarnation and Team Dresch immediately afterward to cleanse our palletes.

Don't let me dissuede you though, she is good and I'm not a huge fan.

In my experience, this is the best kind of audience to be in. I like it when everyone is into it, and enthusiastic. It certainly beats seeing an artist you really like with a bunch of people who seem totally indifferent.

I've never seen Tori Amos live, and don't really feel the need to do so, so I'm not necessarily defending anyone besides people who go to a show to, y'know, really enjoy it.

Yell for her Slayer cover.
