Hey dear Toriforum! This is the official Tori-In-Berlin-Thread. Here's some photos from the day so far, including the ones i took at the meet-and-greet despite my shaky hands, haha. I'll be back after the concert with the setlist and hopefully a coupole more photos. First, this is when Tori Day started for me. Yep, 4:45 A.M., lol.  A Tori tour poster. Notice that there's one for Aimee Mann right underneath. Two of my favourite singers in one spot. I'm almost in heaven.   The venue, the Tempodrom. We went there today just in order to see if there was anything going on... (oh, and you can spot Axel in the picture, too)  ... and there was something going on, indeed! We noticed some people standing around, waiting for a M&G, and we decided to wait, as well. And we got lucky - We got to see Tash and then, at 4:45 (p.m. this time), Tori came to see us...   Axel's about to get his T-Shirt signed:  This is how it turned out:  And this one is, obviously, my favourite picture. I can't believe Tori took a picture with me. I was so nervous, I couldn't even say anything. And yeah, I had my arm around her, and she had hers around mine. I can't believe that this actually happened for real...  |

there's a lot more to say about the concert, but firstly, i'd just like to mention something i overheard at the meet & greet this afternoon. someone asked her if she could play "sugar", and her reply was negative, since it's "the hardest song in [her] catalogue". that's interesting. i never thought of it that way... but back to the concert. tori looked amazing. she wore a greenish top and a long, white skirt. it was not allowed to take photos... and i was quite far away from the stage anyway, but maybe some pictures will appear on the web. i'm pretty sure about that. she was in a really good mood, and the crowd was amazing. tori seemed like she was having a great time. after "little amsterdam" & her first greetings she said that it'd been so long since she last played in berlin. and then: "This is practically my favourite city in the world. [...] I love it, I taste it, I feel it."this obviously made me extremely happy. when introducing the covers she said that she'd received a lot of requests for germany, and: "If you hate them, beat each other up."  my personal highlights were definitely mr zebra (you all know how much i love the song... too bad it's so damn short. it was definitely an audience favourite, too) and amber waves. |

Actually, if you've ever tried to sing along with that song... I dunno, maybe my voice just isn't suited to it, but I did find Sugar[/b] to be deceptively difficult, at least vocally. Anyway, HOORAY FOR MATT AND AXEL MEETING TORI!!!!! ;D I'm SO SO jealous.  And ohhhh isn't Famous Blue Raincoat[/b] beautiful live? I'm so happy you got Toast[/b], too!  |

Hey everybody! I was at the meet and greet with Matze and I am so grateful that he insisted on waiting longer because we were already waiting quite long and I was really tired. But in the end, I was so happy that I had the opportunity to see Tori in persona right in front of me. As you can see she signed a shirt for me that I just bought that day. It was funny because at first I didn't dare say anything but then a little "Tori, could you please sign this shirt for me?" came out of my mouth and she said "Sure, we have to stretch it. You have to pull" and I was so nervous that i didn't manage to pull on that shirt. A girl even translated for me into German what Tori just said although my english isn't that bad. I was soooo paralyzed because I couldn't believe that there was Tori and me pulling on the same t-shirt.  But the result of it will be always treated like a treasure by me in order to remember this very special moment in Berlin. And: I have to say that I am a bit jealous of Matt because he has a photo with Tori. But i will be also there in Frankfurt and maybe I can get one, too. Love, Axel PS: In the evening at the concert Tori made a very special gift for me by playing "Not the red baron" in the second encore which is one of my very very favourite songs of hers. This day couldn't have been any better (except for a photo) |
