You know, I actually went to be part of the audience at this show, and needless
to say was *extremely* disappointed when i found Tori wasn't going to be on. I
found out when i got there because a friend of mine works on Tonight Live
organizing guests and so on. Anyway, the penthouse pet of the year was on so it
wasn't a complete loss :)
 
Seriously though, we decided to go back last friday night when we knew she
would be on, and it was just incredible. Tori came out in these flared jeans
through all the smoke that the studio guys had set up, and sat at her piano
and began to sing...it was one of the most amazing performances i've seen...
so much emotion ...and that voice! She did a lot of breathing into the mic
between lyrics, which made you feel very close to her...like hmmm...it reminded
me in a way of the start of "This woman's work". Oh, by the way, the song she
played was "Winter" (Is that right? I dont have the album yet).
The guy i went with brought his Tori Amos CD along and gave it to my friend to
get signed...and she signed it all right. She wrote 

       Dave....much love...Tori Amos

Lucky bastard! :)

anyway, I'm a convert!
