This is great Skinned, thank you very much for the link. Can't wait to get all that Ellen's sutff and those rarieties recorded before WKTR release.

you're welcome. That site is full of one-time performances and live covers from each era. It is very good.
There was a similar site called collectingbees.com but unfortunately it is down now.

Enjoy the rarities!

yeah, it's a pity, but before judging me you must take into account that I am travelling without my own computer and access to the internet is difficult on the road, for lack of time as well as the trouble of finding a place where I can get online (plus the fact that a lot of internet points have such bad quality seating or lighting that I just can't stand to use them, they give me a headache within minutes).

I hadn't planned anything definite regarding the shows in Italy, didn't know which (if any) I would go to, then as it turned out I was lucky to get tickets for good enough seats... I just went to Rome and Milan more or less on the spur of the moment.

it was great to meet you tonight, and you were fortunate to get such a superb show in your hometown. Tori truly trumped herself here in Warsaw, her performance was indescribably energetic. I would have to rank this gig in Warsaw among the very best on this tour, absolutely on a par with the one in Hamburg, if not better (although I enjoyed the one in Hamburg a lot more, but that probablyhas something to do with my getting progressively more and more jaded by going to several more shows).

anyway it's good to meet a fellow gardener in person.

somebody told me (but who was it?) in another forum (or was it this one?) that he/she asked Tori on the last tour if she would consider playing a PJ Harvey song, and that Tori then said she was already thinking of doing that (but she didn't actually do it on the last tour). which is why I was thinking: if she already did have such a thing in mind, perhaps she might be willing to do it now, on the occasion of Polly's 40th birthday.

which is why I mentioned this to Tori at yesterday's meet & greet, in Zabrze. Tori didn't give me any response, so I couldn't tell what her attitude might be. but anyway I did what I could in order to honor the day (just had to try to talk Tori into playing a PJ song); even though I didn't really expect her to do it (and she didn't, in fact, do it).

nice too meet you too

the show was great, amazing setlist! Icicle, Spark, Bliss, Hey Jupiter, Raspberry Swirl... they're the ones i enjoyed the most.
i wasn't on any other so i have to believe you that it was one of the best, but it isn't hard to believe. perfect show for the first time




that's a shame. but maybe she will prepare it for us on the next tour

It was me who asked Tori for a PJ cover in 2005. You did a great job; maybe she will think about it for the next aussie gigs.
The setlist for the Warsaw show was amazing. Lucky you and megique!

here's a few pictures from the meet & greet in Berlin (taken by a friend from Prague):














recognize somebody there?

that little redheaded woman is so strange. why, every single Tori show I go to, she always shows up, isn't that amazing?

Hey PollyP how many shows did you make it to?

_________________
how will you ever walk again...

eleven shows in total, Tori shows that is, on this tour. which means Tori is still only in second place this year, Polly being in the lead (albeit by one show only).

I don't know who could she is, maybe a hard fan of Maria, the worldwide known fat girl from the DVD, who uses be around too

The guy wearing the red shirt perhaps is familiar to me, it seems he could be a friend of a friend's father... and that's it.

LOL, j/k of course. I see your tour has been wonderful. Excellent, I'm so glad of you.

Lovely photos, btw.

indeed Maria (from Connecticut) was also there, at every show on this tour. so it wouldn't be illogical to assume that the redhead might have been following her, though I think it very unlikely.


I told Tori in Warsaw: "this has been a wonderful tour", although I've suffered my share of problems.



credit for those photos should go to Renata, toriphile from Prague who suddenly "got crazy" (her own wording) and decided to go to Berlin, after enjoying the show in Prague but being so disappointed because the meet & greet in Prague was cancelled.
