Now, I know that we are already a ways into the North American Tour, but what I thought I would do was make a place on my website that will list what people are going to what concerts so you can easily contact people. Ok, just fill out this form and send it to lifeuncommon@hotmail.com NOT the address I am writing you from now. Be sure that the subject says "CCP: (and then place the city of the concert that you will be attending). Ok, so here is the form: Name: Concert City: Concert Venue: Concert Date: Your Seating Area: Email Address: Just send that to lifeuncommon@hotmail.com and it will appear on my website http://get.to/lifeuncommon as soon as possible. I will make a post once it is up and running. I will be accepting emails and updating as much as needed though so if you read this late it is ok.

More beautiful than the picture of my mother that daddy showed me. I wonder if it with him now, that picture. The memory is gone, floated up up up and away when he died. But maybe his cold hands are still grasping the picture that he never wanted me to see. What was he afraid of? That I'd turn into her if I studied her too much? That I'd die too. Like he's dead now? Well, I did study her, when he left the picture and went away. And I was always studying him. So I guess it is my fate to die. But everything dies, everything falls apart. Mothers, fathers, lovers, flowers. Little girls singing and sitting on the edge of the water. With flowers in my hands, I will drown. And maybe they'll cry, but it won't last forever because eventually.. Eventually, they'll die too. And they'll float away like the flowers and their memories of this little girl will float up up up up up up up into the sky. I wish I wish for more flowers. Everywhere. In the ground, in the bricks, in my hair, in his eyes. I wish there was a wall of flowers seperating me from everyone else. I wish there had been a wall, on those days when the screaming and the insanity got to be too much. I wish that instead of using little girls for their games, the men used flowers. Daisies and roses and snapdragons. They're prettier than girls anyway, and more colorful than me, at least. I wish... I wish for flowers everywhere. In my hair and in his eyes. His eyes that grew so cold. His eyes that stopped digging into mine, and started sharpening knives. Those eyes are somewhere else now, some other country, happy with the thought that the only other eyes I ever really cared about were gone. Gone away. Cold, dead eyes now. Like everything. Everything that dies. Yes, I wish they were flowers instead. Red red roses. When I die, I hope they bury me with these flowers. With these daisies wrapped in my fingers. And I hope that my hair's still wet, and that there are little bugs in the ground with me. I want something to be alive with me when I die. Even if it's just the bugs. Even if it's just the wilting flowers. As long as they're not completely gone, like cold eyes. As long as something lives on. ... NICE Hello my dear friend, nice to see you again, I missed you a lot I really did How are you today? What did you say? A new girlfriend, whatever, okay. I smile and laugh you say I seem sad What, do I really look so bad? You're now telling me lies, touching my thigh... yes, I'm doing okay. I want you to die. ... DROWNED OUT I've drowned in every sense of the word except that I find myself still dry, somehow... but I've drowned my emotions -- they were growing too loud and I guess I'm just not the right keeper for such things, because I couldn't stand the noise. So I held their screaming, hormonal heads under the water I've drowned out my love so that I can just see it under the water so clear, and admire it from a distance with out growing too attatched. Except with someone, who I cling so deeply to that I forget to swim and drown out myself as well. I've drowned out my tears because I finally realized what everyone's been telling me for so long about them being pointless. But lately, ever since then, the laughter's been slightly muffled like the sound of someone screaming in a bathtub I've drowned my every thought into a sea of anticipation and fantasy, always looking ahead and behind and below me at the love now so far. Why aren't I soaked to the bone? ... SEVENTEEN Seventeen sounds so graceful so delicate and so charming Seventeen is never dull and that is quite alarming for I still have bruises on my knees I still prefer to sleep in the chair I still cry late at night and think everything's unfair I still say things that are precocious not intelligent or poised I still roll my eyes at the other girls and hang out with the boys seventeen is full of gleam and I am full of dirt and leaves seventeen is oh so clean and that's only in my dreams seventeen is not for me no sir, no way can't I just skip this particular birthday? - -- *summer* From planet seventeeno http://www.boingy.com/ <-- coming soon "virtue is relative at best there's nothing worse than a sunset when you're driving due west" - -Ani DiFranco ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 13 Jul 1999 00:46:58 EDT From: Djp1414@aol.com Subject: ET: AUGUST 13 at THE WORLD Hey everyone .. I wanted to let everyone know I'm going to Jewel Aug. 13 at the world in case anyone else was going.. if you guys dont know the world is in Chicago IL .. If any of ya wanna meet.. EMail me back ! later Dan ~an angel with a dream~ ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 13 Jul 1999 13:04:53 CDT From: "Brian H" Subject: ET: Jewel in Newsweek and Alloy.com Ok, there is a small paragraph and picture in Newsweek. I recognize the picture, but I cant figure out what it is from. Maybe rockfest? But it is mostly about the Website Alloy.com. It talks a little bit about its history and stuff. But at the end it says: "One of the biggest draws: a poetry slam, judged by none other than Jewel. The winner gets tickets to one of her concerts." So I went to the site (http://www.alloy.com/empire/?SubSystemID=15&ComponentID=5582) and if you win you get trip for two in Orlando Florida on August 27 to meet Jewel and see her in a concert. So it is pretty cool. It also has Kiss the Flame in Real Player "for inspiration." So I just thought I would let everyone know! _______________________________________________________________ Get Free Email and Do More On The Web.
