Mixed day. The girls and I have colds and have been driving each other nuts for days now. We just watched the celeb fundraising thingie on tv. What is the deal with Willie Nelson? Is he just past his prime or has he always been that bad? And why on earth did they have C. Dion sing that? She isn't even a U.S. citizen. Surely they could have found someone else to do it and let her sing something else. Not really a big deal but I just found it a little odd.
Someone wrote me and told me they would sell me two 4th row balcony seats to the Tori concert for $50 because "It's been a pretty good year, so I need to give some back to the karma pool." How nifty is that? I hope it all works out. I was not happy about missing it. I would be happy happy happy. The only other Tori show I've been able to go to was the last one with Alanis and that wasn't a full show. This will only make my 3rd big concert... the Cure was the first one a few years back, then the Tori/Alanis one and then this. Yipee. I've been living under a rock... I know.
Anyway, I listened to the new cd a few more times today. Who is Joe Jackson? The Real Men cover is good. And I think Time is beautiful. The Slayer cover goes over my head and the Eminem one is too creepy (as it should be).
My keyboard is dying so typing is a pain. Off to crawl in bed and veg now.

I'm really posting in your journal today...woo :)

I couldn't help myself...

I've been to two tori concerts and they were probably two of the best concerts I've been to, so congratulations if you go.

Also, if you like Time, you should find the Tom Wait's version (if you haven't heard it already). It's so beautiful it's mesmerizing.

Yeah, I should hunt it down and give it a listen. I've wanted to go to her other shows (been listening to her since she first showed up on college radio in the early 90's) but I don't ever seem to have money when she comes around and the shows here often sell out quickly. I loved what little she did on the Alanis tour.

I had the same thoughts about Celene Dion.
