San Diego Confusion?

A handful of folks wrote in today to ask about Tori’s date at San Diego’s Copley Symphony Hall, because Ticketmaster’s Web site briefly gave the show date as sometime in February of 2008. After that, the show’s listing disappeared entirely, then reappeared with the December 12, 2007, date. This is one of those times we’re just going to have to shrug and say, “We don’t know, but if that date changes, we’ll let you know.” Thanks to Robert Schrader and a couple of anonymous tipsters for sending word.

Minneapolis Presale Update

George Byrne Opening For Tori in Oz

Sarah tipped us off about Michael Coppel Presents, the promoter for the upcoming shows in Australia, posting on their site that singer-songwriter George Bryne will be opening for Tori on the Australian leg of the tour. Yahoo Music, via Soundbuzz, also picked up on this.

You can check out several of George’s rootsy, country-tinged songs on his MySpace to get a feel for what to expect come September Down Under.

And while we have your attention, Michael Coppel’s concert listing indicates that the September 24th show at the Opera House in Sydney has also sold out!

Change Of Date For "Third" Sydney Show

According to Everything Tori, the performance date for the third Sydney show has changed. The show that was originally scheduled for Tuesday, September 25, 2007 has now been moved to Saturday September 15, 2007.

The venue – the Sydney Opera House – remains unchanged. All tickets purchased for the original date are valid for the same seats on the new performance date without need for exchange.

If you are unable to make the new September 15 date, a full refund may be obtained from the ticket outlet from which your tickets were purchased. PLEASE NOTE-if you want a refund you must get in touch with the original point of purchase by 5pm, Monday, September 10.

Thanks to Robert Schrader for spotting this and sending this in.

At Last! A Phoenix On-Sale Date!

Even though it’s not listed on Ticketmaster yet, ToriAmos.com has announced that the on-sale date for the December 11th show at Phoenix’s Dodge Theatre is Saturday, September 22nd.

So, everyone who’s been asking, now you know!

Update: Everything Tori’s latest tour update appears to have had the September 22nd sale date added as well. In addition, they indicate that VIP tickets will be made available for that show, though, as of yet, no details have been announced about VIP packages or pre-sales.

Lawrence Tickets On-Sale!

It appears that tickets for the Lawrence, KS concert on Friday, November 9th have already gone on sale at The Lied Center’s website! Decent seats still seem to be available from their allotment. Ticketmaster is also going to be selling tickets for this show starting at Noon CDT today, so if you don’t find any seats from The Lied, try Ticketmaster later today.

Thanks to Katie and Craig Fisher for the heads-up!

Update: Craig points out that orchestra seats are still available from Kansas University Ticketing while the best Ticketmaster has for sale are balcony seats. The Lied’s website actually lets you pick the exact seats from the available pool, which is a nice feature, and you can easily view which sections are sold out as well. It’s also worth mentioning that the Lied’s service fees are significantly lower than Ticketmaster’s.

Los Angeles General On-Sale Date Change

If you do not plan to attend the Los Angeles show and, in fact, have absolutely no idea what this “Los Angeles” is of which I speak, go back to sleep. This was all a dream.
