We're going to see Tori Amos during the April 6th stop on her Original Sinsuality tour. Tickets went on sale to the general public today at noon and while we didn't do as well as Jeff's co-worker Tina, who managed to snag 4th row center tickets on presale, we're in the first balcony at the Warner, which isn't too bad given that the Warner is a relatively intimate space.
This will be my fourth time to see Tori perform live. The first time was back in September 1992 at George Washington University's Lisner Auditorium, during her Little Earthquakes tour, then again in March 1994 for the Under the Pink tour, and most recently in August 2003 at Merriweather Post Pavilion, when she paired with Ben Folds on the Lottapianos tour. I downloaded her new album from iTunes earlier this evening, and what little I've listened to so far sounds fantastic.
You did a heck of a lot better than we did. We have nose bleeds. Like the last row on the balcony in a corner. It's better than missing her though.
I was hoping to get to see Tori this tour, but she'll be here in DC when I'm in Orlando (and the reverse is true, too).
