tori's fans are deluded!

yesterday, i was recounting my experiences at the tori amos concert, hoping it was a nightmare created by my own senses... and then, i found out bjork will be coming over in january! (so will have to queue up on Nov 2)

after the bad tori experience just a few days ago, i am starting to have reservations about another concert of another well-loved artist of mine...

would this future encounter tarnish my good "childhood" musical memories like it did for me at the recent tori's?

back to tori - or should i say clyde (one of the doll posses)...

the Sept 24 at the SOH was a disaster (for me) - contrary to reviews of other fans on"undented"... <-- i was really surprised! not a negative review in sight!

well... here is mine ((slightly?) negative reveiw)...

the acoustics were unsatisfactory - soooooo loud... this wasn't helped by clyde / tori's delivery either, cos all the songs have absolutely no variations in volume (where are the pp and the ff???) ... all songs with no discrimiation were belted out hard!

this included the beloved "cloud on my tongue" - why was it sung at the same tempo all the way through??? v disappointed... at the moment i thought it might have been the bad acoustics... but i didn't think so now...

the song choices were not my fave either... may be because i am not accustomed to her american doll posse pieces... but i was not the biggest fan of the bee keeper either...

the last concert i went was tori's hammersmith appollo original sinsulaity concert... and boy, that was way better... (i don't think she had the band there... i can't remb) ... the thing i remb was that "silent all these years" ( couldn't believe she played that for encore!) nearly moved me to tears...

i wish her band would take a backseat and let her and her Bo shine!

** i was sad to say that tori didn't do a fan's request segment or a "covers" segment!!! this should be compulsory!**
