London: Something Wicked This Way Comes...

Tori’s performance at the Apollo Victoria Theatre in London is complete and, in keeping with the shows so far this summer, delivered several surprises to those in attendance. Beneath the dragon flying out over the stage of the musical “Wicked,” she performed “Yes, Anastasia” for the second time this tour but eclipsed that with the debuts of “Marianne,” “Garlands” and “Me And A Gun,” which earned her a mid-set standing ovation. The set also featured “Northern Lad,” “Space Dog” and, opening the encore, a cover of The Eagles’ “Desperado.”

The full setlist, thanks to the Twitter-y efforts of @LeoSalvia, has been posted in the Tour section.

As always, if you were there, we’d love you to share your impression of the concert — post a review using the comment form on that page.

A Not Quite Rainy Night in Dublin

After weather threatened tonight show at Dublin’s Iveagh Gardens all day, the rain held off and Tori delivered another fine performance on Ireland’s stop on this little summer jaunt through Europe. Tonight saw the debuts of “Spark,” “Ophelia” (which, Tori said at the meet and greet before the show, was birthed in Ireland), “Fire To Your Plain,” “Taxi Ride,” “Mother,” “Beauty Queen” and “Horses.” In addition, the “Personal Jesus”/“Body and Soul” diptych reappeared as well as a couple other covers. The full setlist, thanks to the tweets of @lenoreva and @misterebby, has been posted on the Dublin page in the Tour section.

The complete setlist has been posted in the Tour section, with thanks to @lenoreva who posted the performance live on Twitter.

On Fire in Milan

Tori performed at Villa Arconati in Milano, Italy tonight. Although she repeated a few songs that had been played at the few other shows so far this summer, she broke out a whole new set of tunes including “Siren,” “Doughnut Song” “Caught A Lite Sneeze,” “Northern Lad,” “Gold Dust,” “Yes, Anastasia” and the occasionally performed cover of Bruce Springsteen’s “I’m On Fire.” Additionally, the “Body and Soul”/“Personal Jesus” mash-up from two days ago in Brugge made a repeat appearance in tonight’s encore.

The full setlist, with thanks to @ta_ru for updating us on Twitter, has been posted on the Milano page in the Tour section.

Tori Blooms at the Cactusfestival

The Montreux Jazz Festival Welcomes Tori

Many thanks to @NicotineLove and PeleBoy for sharing the setlist from the first show of Tori’s European Summer tour at the Montreux Jazz Festival tonight. We’re still trying to sort out the exact order, but the songs performed have been posted in the Tour section. After being introduced by Quincy Jones (!), Tori opened the show with “Original Sinsuality” and featured “Dragon,” “Snow Cherries From France,” “Girl,” That Guy,” and “Pretty Good Year” during the rest of the set.

As always, we’d love to hear what those of you who were lucky enough to be at the show thought of it. Please feel free to post a review in the comments on the Montreux page.

Tori's Summer Tour Starts Tomorrow!

As most of you no doubt know, Tori’s first show on her Summer 2010 European tour is Friday, July 9th. She’ll be performing at Miles Davis Hall in Montreux, Switzerland as part of this year’s Montreux Jazz Festival. Following that, there’ll be two weeks of additional festival and theatre performances scattered across Europe, a show in Moscow in September and a special performance in October in Amsterdam with The Metropole Orchestra.

Unexpected though this mini-tour was, we at Undented will do the expected concert coverage, as we have done in the past. However, due to recent events and the fact that most of these upcoming shows will be happening right in the middle of my workday, our real-time coverage here and on Twitter will be spotty at best. We’ll still get setlists posted as soon as we can as well as share and host your reviews, photos and videos after each show but please be patient with us if we don’t get some things posted as quickly as we have in the past.

Nevertheless, we appreciate all the reports from the shows via whatever communication channel you like so keep ‘em coming! And to those of you going to the shows, enjoy!

Tori To Perform With The Metropole Orchestra

ToriAmos.com has announced that Tori will be joining The Metropole Orchestra, the world’s largest professional pop and jazz orchestra, for a special performance at Amsterdam’s Heineken Music Hall on Friday, October 8th.

The concert is part of this year’s edition of The Week of The Metropole, a series of performances featuring the Orchestra along with other singers or musicians. At this time, the only other confirmed show in the series is the Dutch band Moke.

Tickets for this unique event will go are on sale through Eventim on Saturday, June 26th at 10:00 AM CEST right now.

Note: the Moke concert is on sale and it indicates that those outside of Holland wishing to purchase tickets for that show must do so by phone rather than online. The number they list is +31 205 11 00 70. As ToriAmos.com has also included a phone number in their announcement — albeit a different one: +31 900 10 10 20 20 — it seems possible that non-Dutch folk will have to go with phone orders as well. We’ll update that once we have more information either way. Tickets for this show can be purchased from any country.

Thanks to Holly, josh and Jane for making sure we didn’t miss this!

NPR Music Comes Through At Bonnaroo

Even though they didn’t broadcast her performance live (or delayed), NPR Music did record Tori’s set at Bonnaroo and they’ve made it available in its entirety from their site.

Unlike the YouTube webcast which was restricted to those in the United States only, the NPR stream is available to all, regardless of your location.

Thanks to Tim and Parker for the heads up!
