Here’s Tori Amos signing autographs at ComicCon. I totally dig this dress, but the wig? Not so much. However, I’m giving her a pass on this only because it’s ComicCon, and a little exaggeration is acceptable. But let’s not do this again, Tori, dear. I still love you!

Oh, happy day!
In a new interview with Out magazine, Love of My Life Tori Amos reveals that she is “in the trenches” of creating a musical, which will hopefully open at the British National Theater in late 2009 or early 2010.
Looks like I’m going to London, kids!!!
The whole interview is definitely worth a read if you’re a Tori fan. She talks about her father, and her daughter (who’s 7 years old now! Wow!). Here’s what she has to say when the interviewer asks her if she’s explained to her daughter, Natasha, about the gay men who are some of her biggest fans:
She’s very aware that some boys stay with boys forever and marry them. And some girls stay with girls and marry them. And it’s the way it is. But the thing about Tash is that she and Granddaddy Eddie see religion very, very differently. She believes that God from the Bible is not Jesus’ father. She feels that God is — I’ll use the word “underachiever.“ She says things like “He likes war. He’s not for woman’s rights.” So in her mind God of the Bible is more like George W. Bush. That’s how she sees it. And that — to her — is not Jesus’ father. And this is where their relationship goes off into different tangents. Tash’s religion would be considered something that is not Western.
Oh, how I love me some Tori!
What a treat! We NEVER get paparazzi photos of Tori.
Tori Amos leaves the Waverly Inn in NYC.

Before launching into “Winter” at a Florence show in late May, Tori sang an impromptu song about the trials and tribulations of Lindsay Lohan.
This was before her most recent run-in with the cops!
Tori is so prescient.
I love her!!!
I mean, for the eight of you who haven’t already downloaded it since it leaked a couple weeks ago, or who haven’t caught the free streaming version on Tori’s MySpace page, today’s the day you are fully entitled to spend money for this album! WOO HOO!!
In typical superfuckingcrazy Tori-style, the album revolves around the voices of four separate women: Santa, Clyde, Pip and Isabel. And to put a modern spin on the superfuckingcraziness, Tori has given all four of these women blogs. On four different blogging platforms. Including Tagworld. I know, I know. And if that alone makes your head kind of explode, you should try actually reading them.

To celebrate the release of ADP, Tori will be performing tonight at a secret location in NYC’s Times Square from 7-9pm. If you’re one of the first 80 people to purchase ADP from Barnes and Noble Union Square location, you’ll get admission for one to the event.
Oh happy, happy day!
My money was on April 5 or earlier, but whatever, I’ll settle for April 18.
I’ll send you over to my friend MK at Popbytes, the only Toriphile to whom even I will defer, for the details and the video for the first single, “Big Wheels.”
I mean, it’s not like I have a copy that I’ve been rocking out to all night — that would be stealing — but suffice it to say that it’s been a very wonderful evening in La Casa Beet.
