Nope. I can't agree with that first sentiment doll...not all of us swing the bat like that.

I will be checking out that blog of yours though...that pic is hysterical.
heh. Swing the bat. Razz

As you probably know, I did a painting of Tori in the 2004, and the 2005 Tori Amos RAINN Calendar for RAINN to raise funds for the charity.

Today I recieved a copy of the 2005 calendar in the mail. And on the image of the Tori painting that I did, Tori signed "To David, With Love, Tori Amos".

Which was a very nice way to start my day!

I hope you get the 2005 calendar. It is an even better calendar than last years.


Yeah, it's really great. See for yourself here: http://www.rainn.org/calendar.html

And here's my little story:
I saw the announcement for the calendar way back in March or April. They had a little discount for early orders, so I ordered one right there and then. And while I was at it, I ordered a t-shirt with it.
When I put up my order I noticed that the cost for shipping and handling was only $ 5. That's way too low for sending it all the way over to germany, but I thought the RAINN people would get back to me with the real costs. But they didn't.
A few weeks later I get a package. T-Shirt, but no calendar. A quick check at the RAINN site tells me that the calendars wont be shipped until August (note: always read the fine print Embarassed ).
Cost of shipping for first package: $ 14.
Early September I get the second package: The calendar.
Cost of shipping: $ 7.55.
So RAINN paid $ 21.55 just for shipping the stuff to me, whereas I only paid $ 5.00. That really contradicts the whole "merchandise-for-collecting-money" thing, right ?
Right. So I sent them another donation for $ 25.00.
Last week I got the usual "thank you" letter with the keychain thing you get for a $ 25.00 donation. They sent it to denmark, but I got it anyway.
This week, I got another "thank you" letter (with keychain), with "denmark" crossed out and replaced with "germany".
End of story (for now ...)

Well, as far as music stars go, I don't know if I can top Bendis' Bush experience. Smile

But I once danced with Chile from TLC at a club in Atlanta. Smile

I don't have scans of them handy, but maybe David Thornton (AKA davidmackguide.com) can post scans of both Tori paintings I did for the calendars.

And I'll ask Anh if she can take a pic or scan of the personalized calendar image if she has time.


Both calendars are very cool. The new 2005 is I think a better designed calendar. And Bill Sienkiewicz did a painting for it this time too.

I donated the original painting for the 2005 calendar to be auctioned at a RAINN benifit concert earlier this year.

(see the letters collumn in Kabuki #1 for more details).

The RAINN organizer told me that someone from Tori's family bought my Tori painting for her before the auction. Smile

Yeah, the Sienkiewicz painting is freakin' AMAZING.
One of the highlights of the Big Apple Con back in April (besides meeting
Anh and Mack and getting a beautiful Echo sketch, of course!) was meeting
Sienkiewicz and seeing that painting in person.

Mitch Itkowitz has the original for sale at graphiccollectibles.com,
for a mere...Five Thousand Dollars.

Tori Amos is the only celebrity I get nerdy over... She's the only reason I'll ever buy a music magazine. I am jealous of you, Mack... Very Happy
