Tori Amos

Monday night, I had one of the most notable experiences of my little life thus far - I finally got to go see Tori Amos in concert. Not only did I see her live, but I managed to get boxed seats! Amazing... simply amazing... It was a whirlwind of emotion for me, because her music was there for me at some of the most difficult parts of my life. I'm still on cloud nine from that show.


(a surprisingly not horrible image I captured using my cell phone):




I want to make mention though of her opening act. I cannot believe the talent that came from this one-man show! His name is Yoav. He uses this arpeggio foot pedal thing, and creates his own rhythms by drumming on his guitar, and even singing into it. The recording of his work simply doesn't do it justice, but it's still awesome to listen to.

Take a minute to check him out - you won't be sorry, I promise!

Here's his myspace page:
