So the shows came and went too quickly. Tori was too booked in the Bay Area for a FoodPorn interview (at least that's what I'm telling myself...*that's* why I didn't get the interview). But i sent a thank-you letter to her assistant for at least communicating with me.

The shows were absolutely amazing...all 3...all in their own ways.

San Jose #1 was beautiful and we were in 3rd row (in the pit) and Let It Be was stunning, Spark in the encore was so great. Tombigbee was rockin' and we got a cute Tash candy-necklace story. Can't wait to get the pics developed.

San Jose #2 was a completely different experience since i took Zoe....she LOVED the show...although she did sleep a bit starting with Roadside Cafe (it is like 3 lullabies). I criiiiied during Vincent, I LOVE that song so much. Pro. Widow was awesome (but out of all the songs to play when i bring a 6 yr old!??!?!?!) ;) I got to hear a bunch of songs that i'd never heard live before so it was a treat.
But after the show Zoe told me that she really had a great time and she loves Tori but she "wish she'd speak Engish"...HA!!!

Sacramento was and incredibly powerful show. It was just so strong from beginning to end. I made it up to Etienne w/out crying and then lost it after that....Ran to the front w/ the (early) mob during iieee and cried for most of that (Songbird --> Tear --> Damage). And hopefully got more good pictures.

I'm sad that i can't go to SLO but Sacramento was an awesome ending to my mini-tour.

Pictures soon!
