Tori is premiering a track from the first two bootlegs on her MySpace page at myspace.com/toriamos. Have a listen now to Father Lucifer from the Auditorium Theatre Chicago, IL bootleg and Take To The Sky from Tori's Royce Hall Auditorium Los Angeles, CA boot.

Once again, these official bootlegs will be available on Tuesday, August 30. 2005! You can pre-order both of these initial released NOW at toriamosbootlegs.com for $25.

The Dent would like to encourage all Toriphiles to support these official boots by purchasing them from toriamosbootlegs.com. If we show full support for these initial releases, it is possible that many more could come later, which would be a wonderful thing. All effort must be made to avoid either the illegal copying of these boots or any additional trading of older, unofficial bootleg versions of the shows that are part of this bootleg series. Please support these official releases and buy them!

I earlier reported that some or all of Tori's June 24, 2005 concert in Munich, Germany would be broadcast by bavarian radio station BR2 on Monday, August 15, 2005. However, Tori was not broadcast on that date. Instead they broadcast a concert by Ibrahim Ferrer, who died recently. The Tori concert has been rescheduled for Monday, October 3, 2005 at 16.05. Some reports say the concert will actually be from the June 28, 2005 Frankfurt, Germany gig instead of Munich, but I am not sure. Thanks to Michael Braun, Janine and JH for the details.

Posted Tue, Aug 23, 2005 - 5:59pm ET | TVRadio
Several sources have told me about this, including Jennifer and Woj, who informed me about emails some fans are getting about this in the DC area. On Wednesday, August 24, 2005, Tori will do a taping at the XM Studios in Washington, DC. This will be done earlier in the day before Tori performs that evening in Baltimore during her tour. Tori will "participate in this recording session as part of XM's Artist Confidential Series, which are intimate programs of talk and music with legendary recording artists". Only 30 people will be chosen to be in the audience for this event,and they will be based on emails that have been sent out by Epic and responded to by fans. We do not know when XM will broadcast this Tori special, but eventually we should find out at xmradio.com
