Friday, January 30, 1998 Greetings to you! I was pleased to receive a copy of the BEHIND THE EYES Theater Tour itinerary from Amy's management office yesterday. It is listed below. You will find the date, city, venue and ticket ordering phone number. I understand from a post in the newsgroup that tickets in some of the cities have already gone on sale. If I can get ahold of this information in any sort of reliable form for all the dates - I'll certainly make a post of it. Needless to say, advance ticket purchase and meet'n'greet opportunities will not be available for this tour. It is Amy's hope that the more intimate settings will enable everyone in attendance to go home feeling that they've experience a "personal visit". In other news... you can now hear Amy's song "The Power" being played behind some Century 21 Realty commercials. I happened to hear about this from my brother-in-law who is a co-writer on the piece and is anxiously awaiting the resulting royalties... The live chat that I have mentioned scheduled for February 7 has been moved back. I will announce a new date when one is confirmed. We are hoping for a day in mid-March prior to the start of the tour... In the coming days, you will be seeing some changes being made in the Friends of Amy Fan Service. Amy would like to put the emphasis back on the printed newsletter and be more involved in communicating with the medium that she is most comfortable with herself. We will continue using the website and this emailing list to make the most current and relevant information available to you. We can no longer attempt to respond individually to the tremendous volume of emails that we receive. You are welcome to leave your comments in electronic form, but if you have a specific question or concern that calls for an answer, please write to us in the good ole fashioned way at: Friends of Amy 9 Music Square South, Suite 214 Nashville, TN 37203-3203 Also - we would love to have some more photos submitted for our Fan Wall of Appreciate within our FOA website http://www.amygrant.com. Please send them to the above address and specify that they are for the Fan Wall. Without this specification, we cannot be certain that we have your permission to display your photo on our site. Thanks! Briefly, let me just personally thank you all for your thoughts and prayers for me and my family over the past couple of weeks. I have been overwhelmed by the kindness of friends! Your prayers are a felt presence in my days. Thank you for bearing with me through all the changes going on with both my family and my profession. God bless you as you have been a blessing to me! -Lori Mc ---------------------- AMY GRANT 1998 BEHIND THE EYES TOUR U.S. - THEATER TOUR MARCH: 27 Las Vegas, NV Hilton - 702-732-5755 28 Las Vegas, NV Hilton - 702-732-5755 29 Tuscon, AZ Centenial Hall - 520-621-3341 31 San Diego, CA Symphony Hall - 619-220-8497 APRIL: 2 Phoenix, AZ Gammage Auditorium - 602-965-3434 3 Los Angeles, CA Universal - 818-622-4440 4 Clearlake, CA Konocti Amph. - 800-660-5253 6 Fresno, CA Saroyan Theater - 209-226-2277 7 Oakland, CA Paramount - 510-762-2277 8 Sacremento, CA Municipal - 916-923-2277 10 Eugene, OR Hult Center - 541-682-5000 11 Portland, OR Schnitzer - 503-248-4912 12 Seattle, WA Paramount - 206-292-2787 13 Spokane, WA Opera House - 509-325-7321 16 Boise, ID Morrison Center - 208-385-1766 17 Salt Lake City, UT Kingsbury Hall - 801-581-7100 18 Colorado Springs, CO Air Force Academy - 719-333-4497 20 Denver, CO Buell Theater - 303-830-8497 21 Albequerque, NM Kiva Auditorium - 505-884-0999 24 Birmingham, AL Boutwell Auditorium - 205-715-6000 25 Greenville, SC Furman/Timmons Auditorium - 864-294-3267 26 Jacksonville, FL Florida Theater - 904-355-2787 28 Chattanooga, TN Memorial Auditorium - 423-757-5042 29 Atlanta, GA Fox Theater - 404-249-8300 30 Knoxville, TN Knoxville Auditorium -423-544-5386 MAY: 8 Nashville, TN Ryman Auditorium - 615-255-9600 9 Nashville, TN Ryman Auditorium - 615-255-9600 11 Little Rock, AR Robinson Auditorium - 501-374-2200 12 Houston, TX Jones Hall - 713-629-3700 14 Austin, TX Bass Hall - 512-477-6060 15 San Antonio, TX Majestic Theater - 210-224-9600 16 Dallas, TX Bronco Bowl - 214-373-8000 18 Ft.
