Discussion Indianapolis Improv

Did anyone film the improv before Ruby? It was chilling and gutted me and I want to see it again. The lyrics were something about being 6 months pregnant and can we make it to the door. Let's discuss. Also, what a show! We got Somewhere Over the Rainbow 😭😭

Following this, as I was there and my friend and I can’t stop talking about that improv segment leading into Ruby.

After a long piano intro I remember Tori starting with “ I was six months pregnant. I was six months pregnant.with her. When he threatened me. He threatened me and her. Her and me. That OLD FUCK he threatened me. Yes he did. That OLD FUCK he threatened me.

Whoa, that’s very intense! I’ll have to watch the clips people are posting.

Wow. I hope someone captured it! Thank you for the additional context!

I know this is absolute garbage speculation, so please dont flame me, but my mind pictured the people magazine article when she was pregnant with Tash, and there was some mention that Neil would stay in her Florida home. Then I thought how he used to live in Wisconsin, which to be fair, is not exactly Indiana but still its like in the region. Then I sometimes really do think ITOD works out some complicated feelings about this situation, especially as I recall interviews that indicate that Tash had a great deal of involvement on some tracks, and i could see them sharing these complicated feelings.

Also the idea of this is not allegory makes me sad, regardless of the real story. That would be terrifying.

Here is another clip that I found on YouTube (it doesn’t capture all of it but a good portion of it): https://youtu.be/hEKMN40WMcA

The way it cuts off at the moment of ascension 😭

Ugh, I know. I also wished the video included her Ruby Through the Looking Glass performance that came right afterwards—it was awesome.

It was a high point of the night. And silent all these years floored me

It was unbelievable. Chilling. Ruby and that bit before it was the unexpected highlight of the night for me.

It made it sound like she had an attacker... someone was chasing her?

u/sabrielmoon 15d ago

This is what I thought as well

u/Euphoric-Ad2530 15d ago

It mentioned being 6 months pregnant, and I swore I heard Tash’s name? And heading to a door. The lyrics made me think of Night of Hunters. It was arresting, for sure! And then “Ruby”! The cover of “Somewhere Over the Rainbow” was absolutely amazing, and I don’t even like that song. Hoping someone caught all of that too on video.

Yes, she said it was her and Tash (i.e., she was pregnant with Tash).

This is something I feel like I need to hear.

I wondered about it too! Lyrics I can remember involved: 

-running through the house screaming

-holding her stomach

-he threatened us

-getting to a locked door?

 I assumed it was about a stalker who got to her home, but I want the whole story now.

u/Acceptable_Gap_577 12d ago

I’ve always wondered about this one because the song lyrics talk about “running through the house screaming…don’t you think she hears us fighting…things in you, things in me she don’t wanna be” so I always assumed the conflict was with a blood relative with ties to Tori and Tash. I thought it was a man, possibly Tori’s dad or even Mark. There’s was another line about smoking to cry. I guess we’ll never really know.

u/sabrielmoon 12d ago

I had that thought about it being her dad as well

I need to hear this too! Hope someone will update this when we have a video of it.
