Tour Review Round-Up
“Pip” showed up at the Nov. 20 show in Clearwater and treated the crowd to a live version of “Professional Widow,” - - not just the remixed version that plays during the costume changes. Highlights of the show included “Horses,” “Carbon,” and the tour debut of “Martha’s Foolish Ginger.” See the full setlist on Undented.
Charlotte Creative Loafing included a review by Jeff Hahne (and some great photos) of the Nov. 13 show in Charlotte on their music blog.
Wow. Naples Daily News reviewer Victoria Macchi calls “Isabel” a “tough musical pill to swallow.” Read her review of the Ft. Myers show here.
Florida Today previewed the Melbourne show with an article on Nov. 18. It’s an interesting read, and includes an interview with Tori and an overview of the musical progression of her albums throughout the years. Read closely, you’ll notice the reporter fails to mention “From the Choirgirl Hotel” and “To Venus and Back” in the progression!
Leslie Gray Streeter interviewed Tori for the Palm Post News before the Nov. 21 West Palm Beach show. It includes an inside look on what Tori enjoys about owning a home in Florida.
I find it interesting that so many reviewers don’t care for “Isabel’s” onstage persona. She’s the only one that seems to come across as extremely cold, and many audience members see her songs off the ADP album as coming of as flat live. I wish I could have experienced it in person so I could form my own opinion. Anyone else who’s seen “Isabel” want to chime in on this?
