Oh, yeah, that's absolutely true. Tori is much more personally involved with the fans than I think it would ever even occur to the Mac to be. She will play those "obscure" songs that are fan favorites (whereas we can all hold our breaths til we die for SOTM live and still not hear it, methinks), and if you make it to the venue in time, you'll often be able to go say hi to her before the show and she'll actually spend a few minutes with each person that made it to the meet & greet area, she'll take song requests and do them, etc.

She seems like she very much understands how important her music is to us and makes it a point to connect on some kind of personal level as much as she can. I appreciate that about her.

All the same, baby. All the same.

"You never know what I'll do. I've resequenced my show. I'm a master at sequencing. I'm the one who sequenced for Fleetwood Mac. I sequenced 'Rumours.' Everyone loves my sequences. They're fun.''
