FANS WHO BOUGHT TICKETS SAY:
"I love going to see Tori Amos. She is so talented and it's amazing to see her play two pianos at the same time. Her voice is great. She continually pushes the limits. "
" I am blown away at how perfect and personal Tori's performance was - every pitch was perfect, every lyric a dream. it was truly unforgettable and feel like I was a part of something magical. "
"Beautiful, wonderful, amazing and fantastic!!!! It was really great to see Tori along with the Quartet! Perfect icing on the cake!"
Amos has always been a great, even if at times uneven, talent but her recordings don't hold a light to her live performance which is superb. She's mesmerizing. I would see her again in a heartbeat.
This was an amazing concert. The combination of Tori's touching and sensual voice coupled with the string quartate penetrated straight to our souls.
Probably the best concert I have been too. Tori actually gave a free meet and greet to her fans waiting outside (let us come in and take pictures with her). Then she delievered the best setlist we have seen since her early days. And her voice was flawless
Tori was on fire and played a bunch of songs I did not expect. The string quartet provided an interesting flavour on a lot of her classics. This was the best show I've ever been to and I did not need earplugs. The sound was mixed just to the right level of loudness (not too loud) and clarity.
The show was fantastic. Tori sounded amazing! I definitely recommend it.
It was my first time and I'm barely familiar with the music. So her power unbiasedly affected me. The musical glow will keep me goin till the next good show I see.
Great show! Tori is great live. Would definitely recommend!
How many musicians get a standing ovation as soon as they walk out onto the stage before even starting their show?.....Tori Amos...need I say more?
Great music, superb venue - best Tori show ever! Everyone would love this show.
We enjoyed the opening act although I didn't find out what the band name was. Tori and the band were great as usual. This was my third time seeing her, and she once again blew me away with her strong vocal and musicianship.
This show was awesome! The venue was great...I highly recommend going!
She was all and more than I expected! The concert was in a beautiful setting to match her music and show.
The show was amazing. Tori was amazing, as well. She was brilliant, fun and... wow ! Would describe Tori's show as a really intense experience... :) cant wait to see her again!
Amazing! Love her! This show was electrifying. Unforgettable!
I am a huge fan of Tori Amos and I try to see her shows whenever she is in Toronto. The event was slated to start at 8pm, no where it was stated that there will be a group performing before Tori Amos. The group was ok, couldnt understand any of the lyrics because the singer mumbled so much but the beats were good. They were done at 8:30 and Tori came to stage around 9:10. She was awesome from the start, loved her song choices, wish she did the lounge thing where she sings other people's songs, her own version. She didnt talk much between the songs and the show relied mostly on her awesome voice and piano skills. Which is what I expected anyways but then the light shows during the songs....ugh...it was horrible, it was right in peoples eyes, it looked cheap, it didnt work for me. Give me her voice, her piano and a glass of wine I am good, dont need fancy light shows, Love you Tori come back soon
It was as if Massey Hall was meant for her beautiful voice.
I've been an avid Tori fan for years and I thought it was about time I saw her Live! Her performance was incredible.... A "Hanging off the edge of your seat" concert! The opening band One Eskimo was unbelievable! A new Favorite! Thanks!
I first saw Tori Amos in 2007 both in the UK and in Toronto for the American Dolle Posse tour, and both events seemed to have an air of sadness... a sort of bittersweet feel. However, last night's "Sinful Attraction" tour performance in Toronto, was upbeat and fast paced and she used the vocal talents that make the hair on your body stand on end. I was a little upset going into the concert as I had missed the meet and greet by literally ten minutes, but all that evapourated when she walked out and began to play, flicking her head side to side as she stradled the chair and played her Yamaha and Bosendorfer simultaneously. It was true Tori Amos like I had only seen on dvd performances such as "Welcome to Sunny Florida". The only down side to the performance was that it seemed slightly rushed as if were a lot shorter than it should have been. There was no talking to the audience by way of imporvisation which loyal fans have come to know and love. We did however sing happy birthday to John Evans (the bass player), but that was it. And the last bit of dissappointment came with a only one track for the encore, as opposed to three as she has always done. I had also heard that the meet and greet had only be about half an hour. All in all the performance cannot be flawed. But on the flip side, there was a lack of connection with the audience and everything seemed rushed, as if she just wanted to get the whole experience over with.
I have been fortunate enough to see Tori perform six times over the past fifteen years and she never fails to connect with her audience and produce a truly genuine, electrified and simply amazing performance. From her vibrant, emotionally charged voice & lyrics to her flowing red hair & eccentric outfits, she never fails to enthrall and captivate.
Enjoyed the concert, and the opening act. First time at Massey Hall - very nice- they even kept it cool for all.
