Australian Tour On-Sale Information

Michael Coppel Presents, the promoter for the Australian leg of the American Doll Posse tour, has posted ticket information for all the shows. It’s embedded in a Flash file (_why do people do that?_), so it’s a bit unwieldy, but the bottom line is that tickets go on sale on Monday, June 18th at 9:00 AM. Ticket links will be added to this article and the tour pages soon as we have a chance to do so. Thanks to Astred and Onlybride for the head’s up!

Düsseldorf: Pip Strikes Again

No doubt spurned on by the G8 meeting currently happening in Germany, political Pip opened the show in Düsseldorf on Wednesday, June 6th, ripping through her usual set of songs. However, her performance of “Fat Slut” and “Smokey Joe” (video thanks to Robert Schrader) were particularly inspired; adding additional lyrics aimed at the G8 during the former and delivering the best version of the latter yet. Tori didn’t stop there as she played, for the first time ever, the song “Just Ellen” (thanks pinklotusalex), a song she wrote in her teenage years, during the solo part of the show. She also debuted “Glory Of The 80s”, “Marianne” solo, “Purple People” and “Pancake”. The full setlist is on the Düsseldorf page.

The Mondo ADP Merchandise Compendium

This is where we’re going to collect the photos of merchandise from the ADP tour. For the time being, anyway. A mini-gallery, if you will. I’ll stick a link up in the right column over on the Tour section so that everyone can find it easily to check for new stuff being added.

Hamburg: Santa Baby

Santa came out to play in Hamburg wearing a sexy red dress. Debuts were Mr. Zebra, Mother, and Playboy Mommy. Nice! Much appreciation to Julia for sending us a scan of the setlist after the show. We hope to get reviews and piccies from lots of you in the next couple of days.

This seems a perfect time to mention that we would love it if folks would send us updates from the shows as they happen, and we have a couple of ways you can connect with us…

You can text messages in to adp@undented.com and you can also IM updates to us (through Jabber, YIM, MSN, and AIM) before, during, and/or immediately following the shows. Let us know how a M&G went, send in the setlist as it unfolds, tell us what Tori’s wearing … whatever strikes your fancy. Our IM accounts (and online status) can be found in the right column on all the tour pages and one of us is usually online around the general time of the shows to take your orders (er, I mean take your reports).

Merchandise!

Frank was kind enough to send us a photograph of the tour merchandise stand, showing the t-shirt designs — albeit from a distance. This is the first look that people not at the shows have had of the t-shirts, as far as we know, so it’s greatly appreciated! But if anyone can provide some close-ups of the various t-shirts and other gear, that would be appreciated as well.

Oh yeah: click on the thumbnail for a larger image….

Amsterdam: Pip Pip Hooray!

Amsterdam was Pip’s second time opening on the tour. She played the same set of songs as her first show in Milan, again including “Bliss” from Tori’s repertoire and skipping “Velvet Revolution”. Debuts tonight included “Flying Dutchman” during the solo set, “Father’s Son” and “Tear In Your Hand” during the first encore. Tori also brought out Clyde’s “Bouncing Off Clouds” for the encore, so it’s good to know that she can “cover” the other dolls’ songs if she so desires.

If you were there and would like to share your thoughts about the concert, please do so using the form at the bottom of the concert’s page!

Paris: Here Comes The Clyde

Clyde had the opening set at tonight’s concert in Paris. In addition to her songs that were performed for the first time — “Bouncing Off Clouds”, “Beauty Of Speed”, and “Roosterspur Bridge” — she also performed “Rattlesnakes” and “Little Amsterdam”. Interestingly, Clyde’s other song from the album, “Girl Disappearing”, was not played. Other debuts tonight were the two solo songs “Leather” and “Garlands”. “T & Bö” was kicked off with an improv about Paris-the-city, not Paris-the-Hilton as previously reported. Check out the full setlist here.

Thanks to everyone feeding the setlist as it was performed to the various forums!

If you attended the show, please post your review using the form at the bottom of the Paris concert page and e-mail us to share any photos or multimedia with everyone!

Pip Does Milan

Tonight’s concert in Milan is complete. Pip opened the show, playing “Bliss” in addition to most of her songs from American Doll Posse (“Velvet Revolution” was not played). Mac Aladdin (aka Mark Hawley) again played guitar, though Dan Phelps played on some songs instead. In addition to Pip’s songs, Tori also debuted “Honey,” “Putting The Damage On”, plus the two solo time songs, “China” and “Seaside,” which were preceeded by an improvisation about “dark times”. Thanks to thewaves for sending in the setlist. Also, according to boy4pele, Tori soundchecked “Marys Of The Sea”.

Since they’ve got the inside scoop on Ms. T, it will no doubt behoove us all to keep an eye on EverythingTori’s nooks and cranies for little treats like this to pop up!
