Thoughts of the new album?

[hani]

I particularly loved "Precious Things."  Some songs I thought were underwhelming were "Marianne" and "Programmable Soda."

Are there any members here who live in Europe and attended her concerts? How were they?

Cool! Where exactly near the concert hall? It's so big and I'm bad with street names!

I saw the show in Norfolk, CT, with the string octet. Tori seems to have grown into her new voice, and was relaxed and cheerful. I was upset that the record had so much vocal doubling, because she does a really nice job with the vocals on stage. The octet rendition of Smokey Joe was really moving and I loved the strings. I also really enjoyed Hey Jupiter. She played Marianne without the strings and I liked it better that way

I'm in Australia, so the chance of any shows is pretty much nil (although she has been here a lot over the last seven years). I'm a little disappointed by the album; I don't feel it adds much to the pre-existing songs. But then I see a link like this and I fall in love all over again...http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=No1_HX_A0V8

I feel lime the live stuff she did with the octet, esp. the NPR broadcast were much, much better than actual Gold Dust, and were some of the best shows I have ever seen by her. I felt like a lot of the arrangements on Gold Dust contributed little to the originals, but the NPR broadcast was A+++++. Esp.Smokey Joe.
