Third Johannesburg Show Added, Tickets On Sale Wednesday

Tuesday, September 06, 2011 | 13:32 UTC | Posted by woj | Touring

Even though Computicket is still listing two shows at the Theatre Of Marcellus at Emperors Palace in Johannesburg, both of which are “on hold”, the venue’s website (scroll down a bit) indicates that there will be three performances on Saturday, November 12th, a matinee on Sunday, November 13th and Monday, November 14th. Tickets for all three shows were being sold briefly earlier but are not currently available and slated to go back on-sale at 1:00 PM local time on Wednesday, September 7th.

Given that the poster for the events shows only the concerts on the 12th and 13th, we’re guessing that the Monday performance was an optional date but it seems that has since been added since the venue does list it.

We’d also expect the Cape Town concert to go on sale soon even though it is not currently listed at the Grand West’s website.

Thanks to elasia, Martin and @RKGraeme for the heads up!

Night Of Hunters To Visit South Africa?

Sunday, September 04, 2011 | 23:33 UTC | Posted by woj | Touring

Ticket vendor Computicket is listing several Tori Amos concerts in South Africa in November!

There are three shows listed: Saturday November 12th and Sunday November 13th at the Theatre of Marcellus at Emperor’s Palace in Johannesburg and Thursday, November 17th at the Grand Arena in Cape Town. All three are currently listed with a status of “Hold” so the shows are NOT confirmed and tickets are not on sale. Neither of the venue’s websites list these shows either.

Should these concerts come to pass, this would mark the first time that Tori performs in South Africa. Hopefully, this turns out to be the case!

Thanks to Nicotine Love for the tip on the Tweeter!

Mark Hole Opening Tori's European Tour

Friday, August 26, 2011 | 06:55 UTC | Posted by Beth | Touring

English musician Mark Hole, a former self-described “hyperactive and erratic boy” who grew up to become a guy who “just wants to play the piano and sing,” will apparently be opening the European leg of Tori’s Night of Hunters tour. His music is fun, dramatic, whimsical, and, yes, piano-based. Swing on over to his site to dig a few sample tracks from his debut album, F-Sharp. Thanks to Maciej for sending us Mark’s tweet.

Appollon Musagete To Tour With Tori

Tuesday, August 09, 2011 | 12:35 UTC | Posted by woj | Touring

According to the concert itinerary on The Appollon Musagete’s website, they will be accompanying Tori for all of the dates on the European and North American legs of the Night of Hunters tour. Given their involvement in the album and the fact that they’re just a quartet makes for a natural fit though what, exactly, this means for the concerts on this tour remains to be seen. Hopefully, there’ll be more details surfacing about the tour soon.

Tori Ticket Terror - July 30th

Saturday, July 30, 2011 | 15:56 UTC | Posted by woj | Touring

This week’s ticket sales round out today with four general sales, in order of when they start:

Grand Prairie/Dallas, 10:00 AM Central
Toronto, 10:00 PM Eastern
Los Angeles, (Saturday, December 17), 10:00 AM Pacific
Los Angeles, (Sunday, December 18), 10:00 AM Pacific

Good luck to all!

This leaves the show at Austin’s Bass Concert Hall as the sole show on the North American tour that has not gone on sale yet. Several people have said that they saw it listed on Ticketmaster but that it has been since removed. While we didn’t actually see that listing, tickets to all shows at the University of Texas Performing Arts Center venues are sold through their own box office, with online sales being handled by evenue.net. So, while the show has not yet been added to their calendar yet, we do expect it to appear there before the August 5th sale date advertised by ToriAmos.com, with a purchase link added once tickets are on sale.

We’ll keep an eye on that — and also Ticketmaster just in case — and let everyone know when the listing is added.
