Keep an eye on our Twitter and Facebook pages since we often post quickie updates there when we're on-the-go.
During tours, we do our best to cover setlists in real-time on Twitter. If you want to tweet a show in, just DM or @ us on the day and tell us to watch your stream that night.
Tori is touring in 2017 to support the release of Native Invader. The European legs runs from early September through early October and the North American leg runs from late October to early December. We do not know if additional dates elsewhere will be added.
Be sure to check out our other sections, Tour — where setlists and other concert-related material will be updated daily while Tori is on tour — and You. Lots of interesting stuff!
Don’t look now but a few more visualettes from Abnormally Attracted to Sin have surfaced from the depths of The Innertube.
500 Miles and Ophelia are streaming in glorious Windows Media from some mysterious content delivery network. Ophelia has also made its way to YouTube where one can also find Flavor.
At this point, we’re not sure if these are legitimate streams of the visualettes, like the two that appeared on Barnes & Noble’s music store earlier this week, or something more nefarious. Either way, it certainly doesn’t hurt to create a little buzz for the record, no?
Thanks to Erica and Julienne for the tips…
Spinner.com has an exclusive download of Maybe California and the accompanying video in honor of Mother’s Day. Get it while it’s hot!
Vinyl addicts rejoice! Best Buy, Amazon.com and Amazon.ca have all added listings for a vinyl release of Abnormally Attracted to Sin so it looks like those of us who have kept their turntables in shape will have something to spin on them come May 19th.
A tip of the hat to amanda and Armen for this news.
Don’t have or want iTunes? Still want to legally download “Welcome to England”? Well, you’re in luck as other digital outlets are offering it as well. Most notably, Amazon MP3 has the tune for download but you can also find it on Zune Marketplace, lala and, undoubtedly, other online stores as well (though, sadly, not emusic).
Not being outside the States, we can’t confirm this for sure but it appears that the digital single is not available in Europe. However, both NME and ChartSingles.net point towards a physical single release of “Welcome to England” in the UK on May 25th so it’s not all one-sided.
Thanks to Ross, Rose, Armen and Matt for the tips.
Update: And while it’s not on iTunes Australia just yet, it is on BigPond Music for all the Toriphiles down under. (Thanks George!)
Looks like any Toriphile worth their salt should keep an eye on LP33 next week as they’ve let slip, over in the Twitterverse, that they will be posting a four part interview with Tori and that they will be offering a free download of “Maybe California” next Thursday. So, move along, nothing to see here right now, but the fun should begin next week after the Savoy show sets the stage for the run-up to the new album’s release.
UPDATE: The autographed booklets are now sold out.
Pre-order either the regular or deluxe editions of Abnormally Attracted To Sin from Newbury Comics and get an autographed CD Booklet with purchase. Copies are limited, so be quick!
Update: A new ToriAmos.com newsletter came out the morning of April 15th announcing the iTunes pre-order information and included an additional tidbit: “Oscar’s Theme,” the bonus track to be included with the UK release of the album, will also be included with the US iTunes release.
iTunes has posted a list of some US cities for the upcoming tour. (You can also purchase “Welcome To England” at the US iTunes store now.)

Oh, the joys of having one’s Internet connection down all day…
Elliot Lear discovered there are clips for the bonus track edition of AATS up on iTunes.
Wow. Wow, wow, wow. Haunting, powerful, dark. If the clips are a good indication, this album is going to blow us all out of the water. Just … wow.
Marvin had alerted us that some new promotional photographs of Tori taken by Lucas Jackson for Reuters were floating around and, while doing a quick search for that mystery article at HereInMyHead, I stumbled across them myself on Yahoo. Enjoy!
If you were wondering who has the goods, HereInMyHead.com does!
Head over yonder and you’ll find an article of unknown origin which goes into great depth about the genesis of Abnormally Addicted to Sin as well as nearly all of the lyrics for the record.
We’re not sure how they got all that good stuff but we’re glad they did!
Update: the article appears to be either a translation of or the original English source for this piece at Songwriters.de. The NME article included the line about wanting, “to make a treasure, something people will value,” so I’m inclined to go with the latter. Our best guess is that this biography is leaked press kit material which has yet to hit the wires.
