tori quotes from the stage…

October 29, 1996
Austin, Texas

I got this letter today… um, from somebody who told me about a guy who was supposed to be at one of the recent shows. And uh, he was eighteen. And she told me that he played so many instruments she couldn't even count ‘em, and everything he played was magical. And I’ve known people like that, but they’re very few and far between. It’s a very special thing. And uh, they found him quite recently… um, in a car and he didn’t quite make it. He took his life. So she asked me if I would play one of his favourite songs tonight…
