It is offical. Tori Amos
It is offical. Tori Amos will be playing at the performing arts center on November 7th. Tickets go on sale a week from Saturday at noon. Yeah! I have to get myself organized. If I join the club at the performing arts center then I can have advanced access to buy the tickets. I also want to go to the Melbourne show and the Atlanta show which is tricky because all the tickets might go on sale at the same time. I can't afford to make any mistakes. I won't mess up like I did last year. It brings all those bad memories back. Picture it! It was mid year, 2001. The word was out, "Tori Amos will be touring for her upcoming album Strange Little Girls." Right away the strange little girl inside me began to awaken. Up until this point I took the ticket buying process very lightly. I would just scribble the date on my calender trusting myself to remind me. Not this time. I enlisted the help of several technologies to keep me posted. I had to work that morning so I took my laptop with me waiting for the advanced ticket purchase at 9:00am. I get to work at 8:50. I try to sign on to the internet. There is a problem! It won't let me connect. At that point I start to panic. Every second counts when purchasing tickets online. By this time it is almost 9:00. My heart is dropping into the pit of my stomach. I can just see all those people around the world loggin in, buying their tickets, pushing me back further and further from the stage. With every second I am moved five seats. In a mintues I will have been bumped back a row. I yank the cord out of the wall, jump into my car and race home. It took my five minutes to get home, a trip that usually is about ten. Alas, by the time I purchased the tickets its was almost 9:10am. So yada yada yada...I got seventh row. I won't even tell you what row I managed to wrestle from the Melbourne show. I won't be making any mistakes this year!
