Rotterdam Pre-Sale On Thursday

Just a quick reminder that there will be a pre-sale for the recently-added May 26th Rotterdam concert on Thursday, December 12th at 9:00 PM CET — yes, that’s PM! This pre-sale will take place in the evening. Yay! Night terrors!

Note: this pre-sale is for those who have previously purchased tickets to Tori’s shows at de Doelen. The link was e-mailed on Wednesday evening to those who de Doelen has in their records as previous buyers. Ticketmaster.nl lists has the on-sale date and time consistent with the pre-sale date and time so we’re assuming that the pre-sale will be done through Ticketmaster though it would be good to keep an eye on de Doelen’s listing for the show as well.

The public sale date for this concert is Saturday, December 14th at 10:00 AM CET.

Prague Ticket Details; On-Sale Wednesday

Live Nation added a listing for the Prague show indicating that tickets will go on sale Wednesday, December 11th at 9:00 AM CET

Once the time comes, Live Nation will point to TicketPro which is the actual ticket vendor for the Prague Congress Centre. There to, a sale time of 9:00 AM CET is listed, so get your browsers fired up and pointed by then tomorrow if you’re planning on attending that show.

Thanks to Clemens for the link!

Rotterdam Show Added

As posted on ToriAmos.com, a concert in Rotterdam has been added to the Unrepentant Geraldines tour on Monday, May 26th at de Doelen.

According to ToriAmos.com, a pre-sale for those who had previously purchased tickets for her concerts in Rotterdam will be held on Thursday, December 12th starting at 7:00 PM CET and the general sale will start at 10:00 AM CET on Saturday, December 14th via Ticketmaster.

We expect the promoter or ticketing agency to send out e-mail to previous buyers about the Thursday pre-sale by Wednesday. If they follow the same pattern as before, they will be sent Wednesday evening. We’ll try to get the details if possible.

Thanks to Marianne Rose for the tip!

Celebrate Friday With Two More Songs From The Light Princess!

The National Theatre has posted two more songs from The Light Princess, “My Fairy Story” and “Amphibiava,” on Soundcloud. We can’t think of a better way to kick off the end of the week! (Well, there probably are some ways but this is certainly up there…)

Check ‘em out below:

Prodigal Prague Repents At Last!

The Unrepentant Geraldines tour listing on ToriAmos.com has been updated and there are new details about the Prague show on June 11th. The venue is now the Congress Center (the same location as the concert in Prague during 2009’s Sinful Attraction tour) with tickets going on sale on Wednesday, December 11th.

Soon as we have a ticket link, we’ll get it posted!

Saturday's Tickets Work Hard For A Living

The week of tickets sales for the Unrepentant Geraldines tour comes to an end with general sales for the Dublin, Glasgow, Manchester, Birmingham, Nottingham, London (tickets for the four English shows via GigsandTours.com or Ticketmaster) and Copenhagen shows starting this morning.

Not long afterward, a second Dublin show was added with tickets available from Ticketmaster as well.

That leaves two shows on the European leg for which tickets have not yet gone on sale: Oslo and Prague. Oslo tickets go on sale on Saturday at 9:00 AM local time via billetservice.no. However, we do not have any ticket information for Prague yet. If anyone does or hears anything, please let us know so we can help spread the word.

Thursday's Tickets Have Far To Go

The following ticket sales for shows on the Unrepentant Geraldines tour are taking place on Thursday, November 28th:

• May 12 – Birmingham – pre-sale at 10:00 AM GMT via Live Nation
• May 15 – London – pre-sale at 10:00 AM GMT via Live Nation
• May 28 – Brussels – general sale at 9:00 AM CET via Live Nation (NL / FR) or Ticketmatic
• May 29 – Amsterdam – pre-sale at 10:00 AM CET via Ticketmaster
• June 2 – Rome – general sale at 10:00 CET via LiveNation and at 11:00 AM CET via Listicket
• June 3 – Milan – general sale at 10:00 CET via LiveNation
• June 4 – Padua – general sale at 10:00 CET via LiveNation

Currently, the only two UK shows with Live Nation pre-sales are Birmingham and London. It’s odd that Manchester and Nottingham are not listed. They could be added later; we don’t know. Amsterdam has a pre-sale on Thursday as well. To the best of our knowledge, there are no pre-sale passwords required but we shall have to see in the morning.

The Ticketmatic link for Brussels comes from ToriAmos.com. Currently, nothing comes up for that link but we’d expect it to change. ToriAmos.com lists the sale time for that show as 10:30 local time. However, that show is also on LiveNation.be (Dutch) with a sale time of 9:00 AM CET. We suggest erring on the side of caution and being ready at 9:00.

According to the Auditorium Parco della Musica’s website, tickets for the Rome show will also be available through Listicket. The sale time listed there is 11:00 AM CET so we are guessing that is a separate allotment of tickets from those being sold by Live Nation, starting a hour earlier. Again, it’ll be worth checking both.

Finally, as tomorrow is a holiday here in the United States, we may not be on top of any changes or updates during the day tomorrow. If we are able, we’ll post anything significant on Twitter but will update the site to as well can. Best advice is to help each other out as best as possible…good luck!

Listen To Two Songs From The Light Princess!

Lest we forget amongst all the tour and ticket hub-bub, The Light Princess is still going on!

After a wee break, performances resume this weekend and tickets are still available for the shows on Friday evening, Saturday and Sunday afternoon, and Monday evening.

And if you are wondering what all the fuss is about — or have been wondering since the beginning what the heck a musical written by Tori Amos might sound like — you can now listen to two songs courtesy of The National Theatre! They are Althea and Better Than Good. Check ‘em out on SoundCloud or in the widget below…

Hopefully this bodes well for the possibility of a recording being made available soon!
