Dec. 2nd, 2007 07:52 pmI saw Tori Amos in concert last Wednesday night. It was a fabulous show. She strutted out in red dress and high heels and was so cute! She was Santa - the platinum blond with martini persona. The first song was a rocking version of "She's Your Cocaine" and it segued into "Hoochie Woman" (with Tori cha-cha-ing about the stage pouring drinks for the musicians first).
She played quite a few songs from a nicely funky version of "Corn Flake Girl" to a lovely "Silent All These Years" to a forceful "Pancake". Of course there were a few from the new album, too, but there was a nice general mix.
She also told an adorable story about her daughter asking "what's a bisexual, mummy?" that morning before she'd even "had my cup of tea". She didn't want to get into it, until Natasha said, "But you have to tell because you're my mummy and Tori Amos, and you stand for truth!"
So she likened it to the vegetarians and non-vegetarians on the tour, ending it with "bisexuals just can't decide what they want!" To which her daughter replies (with Tori cracking up as she said it), "Maybe that's because they're extra hungry."
This is the fourth time I've seen her in Denver, and I was delighted that she also said that this was one of her very favorite places to play in the United States. We're cool.
