Tuesday, September 29th, 2009 Tori Amos 'Abnormally Attracted To Sin Tour' 2009 Hammersmith Apollo, London 11th September 2009
We walked to the bus stop, where we got on the bus to the Hammersmith Apollo theater, there were alot of adult fans waiting in long queues outside the theater, after about 10 minutes, we were let into the foyer, where people proceeded to spread out, purchasing drinks and merchandise, we had to wait a further 20 minutes before we were able to take our seats, another pause of 20 minutes & the lights went down, the first act appeared on stage were 'One Eskimo' they were the best support act, thats i'd seen or heard, their songs were epic & emotional, the stage was cleared but for a number of keyboards & pianos, tori appeared from the right side of the stage, in an orange flowing dress & gold leggins, she waved at the audience & did a little egyption dance as she walked to the piano, sat down & started playing she sang a number of songs from the new album: 'Abnormally Attracted To Sin' occasionally criss crossing from one piano to the other depending on the songs, she tapped her head alot which i now know is for a top hat aka a high note, she talked to the audience and said some sweet things, introduced her band & informing us of her drummer Mattie's departure & that this was his last tour, she played some cherished old songs from the various back catalog of albums, there were so many colored light changes, a wall of tiny lights & something written which was projected onto the back of the stage, throught out Tori's performance, some fans near the end almost stormed the stage, but stopped just in front, so everyone stood up from their seats and gathered to take a glimps of Ms Amos as she was singing, she later left the stage in quick fashion & we the audience made it known that we were worthy of more, after much cheering & foot stomping, the band and tori returned to the stage, to perform 2 more songs & she thanked her band & left to the sound of the audience cheering & clapping whilst recieving a standing ovation, the show was over & everyone proceeded to be hurded out of the theater on to the street.
