Most of her fans just know her as Jewel, and they probably don't know about her upbringing as a Mormon yodeller. Born and raised on the Alaskan tundra, this Swiss descendent was raised as a Mormon up until the age of eight. At 14, she was adopted by an American Indian family. It was this family who told her to "learn to speak with [her] heart, because one day [she'd] be speaking to the world."

JEWEL: It was a group, a gathering, a talking circle, and I was adopted by one uncle, which meant that my family was large because there was my uncle and his brother and all the other adopted people. I remember there was a lot of fuss there because all the wives wre worried their husbands liked me. So, I didn't fit in very well. [laughter] Anyway, in the talking circle I was paralyzed, shy, couldn't think of things to say, anything real. I'd written my whole life and was verbally speechless. I was only able to express myself when I wrote. My uncles took me up on a mountain and walked with me and told me of the White Buffalo Woman, and said that I had a gift to give the world, and that first I had to learn... --- Jewel then goes into a detailed description of the legend of the White Buffalo Woman, and how this experience helped her to learn to speak honestly, of her heart. She says this was during tenth grade, but doesn't specify whether this is was in Alaska. She has said in other interviews that she moved to Hawaii around eighth grade, where she stayed with relatives, so I wonder if this was that time. Are there mountains in Alaska?

AmyJo & I arrived at Alumni Hall at 11:00 in the morning & hung out on the Rugburns/Crew bus with an old friend Colin, who's Jewel's new monitor engineer for a little while (The Rugburns were asleep in the back). Shortly thereafter we hooked up with Larry & his kids Daniel & Nicole,Tegan Dennis Harris,Phil(the JS t-shirt guy) & we all chowed down at StickyFingers on a rib & brew extravaganza & enjoyed each others company for a while. After a great lunch, we all headed back to the venue. All the EDA's were able to get in (they each had thier own angles to accomplish this) & were treated to another amazing rehearsal of Jewel & The Rugburns. This was truly incredible & I'm sure others will post their thoughts & reactions to being able to witness some amazing new material & a few things literally being created & developed close up. This rehearsal lasted approximately 2 hours and featured the following material with Jewel: Improvisational Rap Jam Unsung In Your Eyes (a lost song only played on the Hutton show) Run Tonto Run "Black Dog" Jam (YES! The Led Zeppelin song) Adrian (this time almost 22 minutes long-similar to the New Haven rehearsals) Deep Water Comfortably Numb (another long lost gem from the Innerchange Days) Passin Time (a new one in progress-2 versions) Be Still My Little Heart (a new one in progress-2 versions) My Body Is Changing (3 versions-now performed during Rugburns set) Downtown Where The Vampires Go (another new one in progress-THIS KICKS ASS!) Then The Rugburns did soundcheck which featured: Rugburns jam (instrumental) Crispy (Baby Wont You Take Me Home?) The Great Mystery (a new Rugburns tune) There were a few incredible moments during all this & all the new stuff was incredibly good. This literally went on until 5 minutes before doors opened. After the rehearsal I met Atz Kilcher(Jewel's Dad) & he was in awe of the amazing scene surounding his daughter. He's incredibly friendly & I popped out to Jewel's bus where Chris Snyder was showing Atz some recent Jewel video footage. Later on we made arrangements to stay in touch & he gave me a tape of his recordings(haven't listened yet). He was as nice as can be & a pleasure to meet. (It was his last night & he was flying back to Homer today, where he's a music teacher.) I also spoke with Jewel briefly & told her that Mike Connell had informed me that Chelsea Clinton was planning on showing up at one of the Beacon shows. Mike suggested that I run off another set of Jewelstock Tapes so that Jewel could give Chelsea a set in NYC. (I did this & brought em with me.) Jewel loved the idea & I gave her the tapes & a little note to accompany them. (So.. soon the immortal words "God Damn Ye Harris Brothers" will likely be ringing through the White House!!!) :-) Alumni Hall opened doors & everyone naturally surrounded the stage (it was general admission) with all the EDAs in front center already. (They'll have to elaborate on some things, since I was back in the room watching from the board area) The Rugburns took the stage & it was obvious Steve was in a VERY bizzarre mood. (I must say now that I've met them all, The Rugburns are the sweetest, friendliest people in the business. I'll elaborate more on this following the show.)They were as crazy as ever & kicked into a set that was: Pile On The Hangover Lockjaw Providence Improvisation Song Tree Hugger Nows Not The Right Time For Love Me & Eddy Vedder Miss Wakin Up With You My Body Is Changing (with Jewel) Impalla Of My Love UPS My Heart Next Day To You Their set was totally crazed & at the end of "UPS" Steve took a giant leap off the stage into the audience! From my vantage point all I saw was a sea of heads with Steve's legs & feet sticking up! I'm sure those EDAs in front can elaborate on this since I suspect he landed on them! After a brief intermission, Jewel's set began with: Near You Always Morning Song Cold Song Circle Song(aka With You I'll Always Be) a definate surprise! Sometimes It Be That Way Race Car Driver Pieces Of You then amidst shouts of "yodel" & general rudeness from the college crowd Jewel brought out her celloist & percussionist and began: Foolish Games then The Rugburns joined in on: You Were Meant For Me Run Tonto Run Deep Water Silver Lining the crowd was really getting loud & Jewel attempted (unsuccessfully) to quiet things down by continuing with: Angel Standing By Daddy (no sh*t---we saw people BREAK DANCING on the gymnasium floor during this song!!--unbelievable....) Then Jewel went into a VERY intense version of: Nicotine Love At the conclusion of this song amidst rudeness & more "yodel" calls she finally lost it! I've never seen or heard her this pissed off before. She yelled at the crowd and said "I F*CKIN HATE IT when you yell "Yodel"!!! What are you thinking?? Go home!!" She also told the crowd they could learn a lot from the EDAs!! She was obviously upset & obliged by doing the "meanest, angriest version of Chime Bells you could imagine. She stopped about halfway through it & brought her Dad out on stage to join in & he had words for the audience too! Atz said "I'm from the biggest state & I came here to teach you folks from the smallest state a little ettiquette!! Don't be yelling requests in the middle of MY DAUGHTERS SONGS!!" You had to be there to fully appreciate the intensity level! They then continued in a yodeling duet which reprised into "Chime Bells" The encore was: Who Will Save Your Soul Amen This scene typified how weird things are getting these days. This show was incredible in its own way, but I can't stop feeling like way too many people attending Jewel's shows are totally missing the boat...... Well the EDAs hung out, & a few lucky ones witnessed even more incredible scenarios as the crew loaded out courtesy of Steve Poltz. A young (I'd say 8 or 9 years old) boy approached Steve & asked about the chord changes on YWMFM. Steve pulled out his guitar & taught the thoroughly absorbed boy the entire song with many of us gazing on in enjoyment. Meanwhile, John Castro was signing everything in sight & laughin it up with the EDAs hanging around. I'll let each tell these stories cause I saw some hilarious autographs.... We were all saying our goodbyes & Atz & Steve got together & did a hilarious impromtu duet based on Larry Greenfields wardrobe & the EDAs all had a great laugh to end a very long day. Atz joined me in the hallway & we re-iterated how we'll stay in touch, exchanged adresses & took a quick picture together. He promised to send us some smoked salmon from Alaska & we said "so long"..... AmyJo & I mozied to our car & packed up. Steve came up & said goodbye & walked away alone into the depths of the campus. About 10 minutes later we drove out of the lot & passed a small cemetary on the outskirts of the campus & there again was Steve. We jokingly said "Hey, need a lift?". He said "No I'm OK, but check out this cemetary. All the headstones are identical!" (which they were!) Something morbid, yet hilarious was said regarding cloning & identical headstones..... We said goodbye as Steve was climbing the fence into the cemetary & drove off into the very foggy night............

Taken from their on line version at: > http://www.canoe.ca/JamMusic/jewel_second.html Well, for the web-challenged, below is the full text of that article. (Complete with some errors, as usual) Mike Jewel has finished recording the follow-up to her double-platinum debut but has decided to put the album on hold 'til 1998. The singer-songwriter -- who, in her leave-nothing-to-the-imagination dress, was the talk of the Grammys, despite coming away from the awards empty-handed -- enlisted Rush/Queensryche collaborator Peter Collins to produce her second set. The album was actually completed in a whirlwind four-week session last fall, just before she hit the road as the opening act for Neil Young's tour. "I've kind of already outgrown a lot of what I've done on the (new) album, so I'm getting the chance to really think about what I'm doing," Jewel told Jam! Recently from Boston. "I hadn't really ever been in a studio before, because my first album was live, mostly. So it was really a brand new experience, and I was just kind of very wide-eyed the whole time. So some of the musicians, I didn't even get to take as much advantage of as I would now, to utilize them the way I would now." Does the next album sound much like the first one? "No, there's a lot more band stuff," she said. "I think my hands have caught up to my head. I'm able to do a lot more styles now. Before I could only play three chords on the guitar, so I was limited to a very certain kind of sound, which isn't really me." Given his work with Rush and Queensryche, Collins seems like an odd choice to produce, but Jewel had very specific reasons for choosing him. "The real neat thing about Peter is that he's not a producer in the typical sense that he brings something to you. Like Daniel Lanois, say, who I'm a big fan of, but at the same time, you're going to get a sound, you know what I mean? A lot of producers are that way. You work with them because you want a certain kind of sound, and I didn't want that. "My first album was really me. I basically got to produce it. Nobody told me this is what you have to edit, and this is what sound you need to make it cool, and this one was same way. Peter's real talent is making everybody sound like themselves." Despite that glowing testimonial, Jewel said some of the completed tracks "missed the mark" and plans to re-cut a few of the tracks. Will Collins be asked back? "I'm not sure. I haven't given it enough thought, to tell you the truth." In the meantime, Jewel will be on the road for at least the rest of 1997. "The first album is on its third single (the top 10 "You Were Meant For Me")," she said, "so it could be another year before the next album comes out" /\//\\///\\\////\\\\/////\\\\\//////\\\\\\/////\\\\\////\\\\///\\\//\\/\ \ New to the list and confused?

It was an incredible experience for me...even though the way the audience acted was a complete disappointment...but i'll get to that a little later on... ok well lets start at the time we arrived at the beacon. I had bought an EDA poster from Larry (i'll pay you back, thanks) and was holding it in the lobby...a girl came up to me (she was college age maybe) and asked if i was with the list and i said yes she said that she used to be on the list but had to leave for some reason, we didnt go into details...so we were talking and i mentioned it being my first concert...and she couldnt believe it...she asked how old i was..i told her 14 and she said "No way" you look much older (i dont really) so i was like "um...okay sure" anyways....We were out in the Lobby for a good half hour and i was walking around..and there must have been 50 people who stopped me and made me explain what the heck an EDA is (thanks a lot larry!) and most people thought it was very cool...and some people didnt understand....Anyways ON WITH THE CONCERT!!! Okay....concert time....*lights go down* Steve walks on stage looking VERY hot with liquer bottle in hand (the bottle was no so hot...) ...stinky looked drunk...but people say he ALWAYS looks like that...and John was looking good...hes like Dave navarro (Steve made a comment on this later in the show) well i really dont remember set lists very well...but i believe they started with Lockjaw and they were so amazing...They are much much better in concert than they ever will be on CD. you have to actually see them dancing around and stinky doing his rooster impresssion....um...after a few songs Steve announced "I'm Steve Poltz..The skinny heroin addict looking guy from jewels video...This is Stinky in drums...and this is John over here...hes the child of prince and Dave navarro, And together we are the Rugburns!" (pretty accurate quote) okay well they were great...They played Impala of my love...With no jewel sadly...it was a cute little doo-op kinda song. They seemed to be having a blast on stage (the exact opposite of jewel) Steve was smiling SO wide...and no...stinky didnt drum on steves crotch but Steve did lie down on the floor and stinky drummed steves shoes. They were dancing around and ultimatly having an awesome time (even though steve took a drink from his liquer bottle every few songs..) Okay...they sang for about 40 minutes...did maybe 6-8 songs...then there was like a 30 minutes intermission. well we went scowering the halls for signs of a rugburn (we KNEW jewel wouldnt be out there) and didnt find any...but we did find one guy who claims to have flown out from California just to see stinky. well i went back inside to see the other EDAs and Jared informed me that Lenedra and BiBi were sitting right next to us!!! they were one isle away! it was so cool...so we offered Bibi and lenedra some of bryan and katherines Oreo cookies...Bibi took some and lenedra declined...saying that she doesnt like chocolate...and ways i was ultimatly shy...So jared was so nice enough to help me out and ask if she would sign my EDA poster...she did...shes really pretty. so okay....JEWEL CONCERT STARTS...

I dont think anyone there...besides EDAs were actually there because they loved jewels music...It was sick...well i really cant remember jewels set list...but i know it was short...too short. The third song she played was Morning song...and when she got to the part about "hanry miller and anais nin" i just broke out and cried...It just popped into my head that.. "hey jewel is RIGHT in front of me...I'm actually sitting in the same room as jewel" and it was so overwhelming that i just couldnt help but cry....but then it angered me that this audience has absolutely no idea what they are watching...Their were a bunch of drunk idiots yelling at jewel in the middle of a song...The younger people were screaming _everytime_ jewel moved or did something cute...jewel couldnt even tell one simple story with out having to scream to be heard...but thankfully there was not even one request for "Yodel!!!" ...but she didnt yodel at all...and i really wanted her too...but i would never yell it out. Well she sang a new song called "stranger" which was absolutely increuble...and then she sang Fragole flame i believe...and heres where it turns really ugly. At the end of the song some guy yells out "Take it of jewel" ...and as soon as he said that i knew the concert was over... i could tell that it hurt her...She was up there on stage with a sore throaght and she was doing her best to give US a good show no matter if it cost her a voice...and this total jerk completely disrespects her and tells her to take her clothes off... i mean i would have probably ignored it and passed him off as a drunk idiot (i'm sure he was both) but Jewel takes alot of things too personally...I mean i'm sure the guy was so drunk he had no idea what he was doing to her...so she Starts singing pieces of you...but the first line was "Stupid boy stupid boy..stops me in the middle of a concert to say 'take it off jewel' stupid boy..." well this ot a huge laugh and i thought that she was over it...well i wasnt expexting her to walk off stage after that song.... She looked really mad...and i couldnt beleive that a stupid guy had ruined it for us...now i have to wonder if (not including the encores) if the show would have been longer...and i think it would have...but i was just so completely surprised at the lack of respect the audience showed her tonight. i mean if she has to put up with this every night i really do feel sorry for her. and when she did come out for the encores she did an great version of WWSYS...and then something else...but i think she did Amen for the last song...and the audience hadnt quieted down in the least bit until now when they were starting to calm down....sadly ut was her last song and i think they pretty much already ruined jewels mood...so it was over...jewel seemed mighty pissed. so...after it was over i was feeling kinda happy that i got to see jewel, and kinda mad about what happened...so we went into the lobby and had pretty much given up hope for the evening...thats when i saw a huge crowed of girls surrounding John castro...so i went over to him (i practicly had to wait in line!) and asked him to sign my EDA poster...he did...hes cute... he signed it "John castro,the rugburn of love" and then after about 5 more minutes we spotted steve, Walked over to him....and had him sign my Poster...he seemed pretty happy to see the EDAs at the show. anyways...after that we went out side...I bought a few extra t-shorts...because i was freezing to death (when i was done i was wearing a grand total of 4 shirts, and i had one in my backpack) So we then followed the crowed of teenagers in back of the theater...where there was a limo waiting...but there was no way jewel could get though that crowd so they pulled away (and picked her up around the corner i bet) anyways...we found out where the Z100 party in jewels honor was being held so we all walked over there, and it was a very fancy club (18+) and since well none of us had Passes we were kinda scared...but Some people pusshed there way through...but then the guy stopped jared me and Amy and wanted to see if we were on the Guest list (well obviuosly we werent) and jared told him that Bibi would let us in (problem was Bibi never showed up) so The guy at the door let us come in from the cold...so we sat by the window...and waited for bibi...still no show. then the guy told us we had to go back outside and wait...so at that time jewel decided to leave...So we were outside and out comes jewel...she didnt look too happy (she had a bad night, remember) so when she walked by me (she was 3 ft from me!!!!) i lifted the EDA poster and she looked at me and SMILED right at me!!! so this is like so totally amazing for me...because she was like not happy and tehn as soon as she saw the banner she smiled...this really made my night. i'm still smiling/crying/laughing/pondering ... The concert was bad...and i am sorry that THIS experience had to be my forstr...but i ma even more sorry for jewel..she looked so hurt when that guy yelled at her...shes pouring her heart out to us in all of her songs and an insensitive creep cant keep his mouth shut for 5 minutes... but i'm floating on air because SHE SMILED AT ME!!!! my first concert....

Right now, on the AOL site they have three quicktime .mov files for download (2 WWSYS and 1 WWMFM) and have a discography, which is the same as what you'll find on many EDA pages. They also have a rather spartan listing of Web pages, and they (get this!) really play up the Atlantic records page, which is the WORST by far!!! Oddly, last week they (AOL) trumpeted Adam's Pieces Of Jewel" site, and no mention of it here :( Here's their bio from the AOL site. Complete with errors, which makes me believe it's the OLD one from the Atlantic records site, as they call her a "20 year old" in the first sentance, as did Atlantic Records. (where do they hire these people???) Mike __________________________ As a constant reminder of the ground where she and her brothers played, 20-year-old Jewel Kilcher travels with a Tupperware container filled with soil dug from the 800 acre Alaskan homestead where she was raised. It was in these surroundings that Jewel was first introduced to music and to the perfection of the natural world. Settled just outside of Homer, Jewel's family experienced few luxuries. There was no shower, no TV, and the bathroom was an icy outhouse. What she did have was music. Her parents, an Alaskan singer/songwriter duo often brought the six-year-old Jewel onstage and on the road. Soon her yodeling routine was a regular feature of the show. After her parents divorced, Jewel stayed on the road performing with her father. The duo toured singing in bars and nightclubs for much of the next seven years. Jewel's mother would teach the young performer about art, poetry and music nurturing her love for the arts. "Through those lessons, I was given a tool," says Jewel. "After my parents got divorced, I started writing poetry a lot because I didn't always know how to express myself. That, to me, is the real beauty of writing: it makes you more intimate with yourself." Jewel's junior and senior years of high school were spent at Michigan's Interlochen Fine Arts Academy on a vocal scholarship. "My two years there were a turning point," says Jewel. "I saw a bigger world. I immersed myself in everything - drama, dance, sculpture, music." It was at Interlochen, in her senior year, that Jewel took up the guitar and first began to write songs. After graduation, Jewel headed for San Diego to join her mother for sun and surfing. "Despite my surroundings, this was a difficult time for me," she relates. "I felt a lot of social pressure to figure out what I was gonna do with the rest of my life. I had no desire to go to college but I also felt no peace in traveling or just bumming around. I got a number of dead-end jobs...got fired a couple of times. I was frightened and a little depressed. The idea of spending my life in a 9-to-5 job made me feel trapped and hopeless." Jewel decided to give up on a 9 to 5 career and live in her van. Living on a shoe-string budget and a diet of carrots and peanut butter, she began to realize her dream. Local musicians would share their gigs with her and soon she was offered a weekly gig at the Innerchange Coffeehouse. To Jewel's surprise, crowds were packing her shows and local writers began coming out to hear her. San Diego's "Slamm Magazine" wrote, "Her voice is many things, all of them beautiful. When she opens up, the sound is crystalline and pure." It wasn't long before Jewel entered the studio to record her debut release, "Pieces of You," which features 14 tracks of live acoustic solo performances as well as tunes recorded with Neil Young's backing band, The Stray Gators. At its core, the album's instinctive wisdom is amply reflected in "Who Will Save Your Soul," the first single. As with many of Jewel's songs, the lyrics come from observing the people around her. "One of my favorite things to do is sit and watch people walking by," she says. "I remember the details of what people look like - their expressions, their posture, their words. I make up their lives to be tragic or boring or brilliant or normal." /\//\\///\\\////\\\\/////\\\\\//////\\\\\\/////\\\\\////\\\\///\\\//\\/\ \ New to the list and confused?

Although she had a terrible sore throat, which she apologized for, Jewel sounded like an angel. I would post a setlist but I am unfamiliar with most of her unreleased material and I know I'll miss something. She played a beautiful song that was premiered at the Beacon the night before (sorry - no name!) and left only three songs from "Pieces" out of the set - "Daddy", "Painters", and "Adrian". "Run Tonto Run" was a nice change of pace while "Fragile Flame" brought a tear to my eye as did a breathtaking rendition of "Amen" which was, in my opinion, Jewel's finest moment. Oh, and I almost forgot, the EDA's sounded great belting out their line in "I'm Sensitive"! My only complaint is about the distracting screams coming from teenage girls in the audience at every pause and after every chorus. Why people feel the need to do this is beyond my understanding. Jewel seemed a little annoyed at this as well and she even politely gave a "shhhh..." at the start of one song. I wish I had seen her in the coffeehouses! Well, that's about it, I'm sure others who were there can elaborate more. - John127@aol.com From owner-jewel-news@smoe.org Tue Mar 4 17:51:29 1997 Return-Path: Received: by jane.smoe.org (SMI-8.6/SMI-SVR4) id RAA11680; Tue, 4 Mar 1997 17:51:29 -0500 Message-Id: <199703042251.RAA11680@jane.smoe.org> Date: Tue, 04 Mar 1997 01:19:14 -0500 (EST) From: Sean Hooks To: jewel-news@smoe.org Subject: Jewel News: SET LIST/REVIEW: Beacon 2-BETTER!!

Tonight was much much better at the Beacon, heres why from beginning to end. She came out for the duet with Rugburns on "Old Lover's House" Then before her show there was an announcement made about how tonight no moving around or entering/leaving the thetre during songs would be permitted. Jewel was pretty much very happy all night and the patrons though they were far far from perfect, compared to last night they were angelic. This show was so much better, Im glad my seats were 6th row tonite not last night. Anyway, sexist and other asinine comments were unheard of pretty much although there was still way to much screaming during songs, but at least it never obscured the songs like it did yesterday. Heres the setlist, longer, this was 1:35 as compared to like 1:05 last night, but the songs were quite similar and she didnt play a lot of unreleased faves like Carnivore, Love Me Just..., Nicotine Love, Sometimes it be..., etc. Near You Always: I could actually here the acapella part tonight. Stranger: 2nd performance ever, cant say I'm amazed with this one, reminds me a bit of Absence of Fear Morning Song: Eh, better than last night, accentuatedly sensual singing of the Im gonna give you some more line Little Sister: Pretty much same Don't: Moved up in the set, good call. Foolish Games: Voice being in pain/larangitis hurts her on this one but it was still very good. You Were Meant For Me:With Steve, from closer up I still couldnt see this magical chemistry I have seen posted about this song, but Jewel seemed to be into it, walking towards the front of the sage a lot. Run Tonto Run: Same Deep Water: Story preceeding it includes the Denny's women tonight, liked it Fragile Flame: No rudeness this time, lots of quiet, very nice Pieces of You: Here's where the reg. set ended last night but not tonight, good job Jewel Cold Song: Cute, as always. Tiny Love Spaces: Very nice, emotional, this is one of her best soft songs Angel Standing By: Same as last night but moved out of the encores. Reg set ends here, enc 1 is same as last night but... Who Will Save Your Soul: This got great reaction because Jewel had built up to it with previous good performance, unlike last night where it seemed like a token, fans flooded the aisle and smiles abounded during this song, Jewel fed off it, the positive vibe, as equally as she did from the neg. last night Amen: Better, voice wasnt as struggling as it did last night, some of the anger was back. Good job again, but this an be a truly killer song when her voice is 100 percent. This ends Encore 1 I'm Sensitive: Would've liked to see a non-album choice, but I dont think her voice could have handled Nicotine love or Carnivore Tonight. Sweet, very Chime Bells: Forced and she cut it quite short, editing the last two verses and only yodelling once, but it was a reward for the theares good behavior. And it ended. All in all, not a classic but decent, whatI would have loved to see for two nights instead of just one. And tonight I was there alone, last night I had two girls with me who had never seen jewel live, oh well. And thanks to Jason for the ticket, hope you found Grand Central. Also met Crunch, Katherine and Superdeformed, EDAs are actually pretty nice, thought I saw Selena but she was upstairs, hope your daughter enjoyed it if that was you I saw, Selena. There were lots of parents with smaller children tonight, especially daughters. I dunno what it was, there were just less assholes and screaming teeny bopper chicks tonight. From the start you just had the feeling that people were in a better mood and there to see a concert, to hear music, to experience, not just to atend an event, to have something to do. Thats about all I guess. Popularity is still bad, I still think Jewel is a folk singer whose hands are best manifested playing her blue guitar in smaller more, intimate venues and on non Z100/MTV formats. But tonight I was happy after the show as opposed to confused, self-alienated and depressed like it was last night. Way to come back strong Jewel, but tonight just prooves howimportant an audience is to the great performers, 'cause they feed off it.

"I do believe in angels," she exclaimed out of nowhere during her Beacon Theater show Sunday. Later, she blurted, "I don't really think any one of us is truly alone," followed by this heady non sequitur: "I think by nature we're good." Such sugary prnouncements aren't confined to Jewel's stage patter. She likes to offer small lessons in her songs, too - some smaller than others: In "Who Will Save Your Soul," she tells her fans that it's okay not to be famous. In "Little Sister," she helpfully lectures a friend for the sin of eating white bread. Jewel also offered a new homily Sunday about a fat boy driven to suicide. It began with the line "Oh, fat boy...," and went downhill from there. Such bold messages hold clear appeal for young audiences seeking guidance - which helps explain Jewel's pair of Top 10 singles and the double-platinum status of her debut album, "Pieces of You." It also explains the tender age of fans who filled the Beacon on Sunday (Jewel headlined the theater last night as well). A more appealing reason for Jewel's popularity is her voice - a high, supple instrument that can give her tunes spring and charm. Her voice has given a wide berth Sunday; Jewel appeared mainly alone, wioth just an acoustic guitar. A few numbers featured bass, drum and cello backup. In both her singing and melodies, the 22-year-old showed the clear influencce of early Joni Mitchell. In numbers like the twinkly "Near You Always," Jewel re-created both the scale-skipping and the rushed cadences of "Blue"-period Joni. Unfortunately, the singer battled a sore throat this night, which coarsened her best feature. She also faced some trouble form a new and growing segment of her audience. Among the usual crowd of dreamy young girls were drooling young boys drawn to the star's comely face, which recalls a young Olivia Newton-John, and va-va-voom figure, which brings to mind a new Brigitte Bardot. It made for some squirmy moments. After the first number, some guys started yelling things like "Take it off" and a rather too urgent "I love you, Jewel." The singer answered back in her anti-bully anthem, "Pieces of You," by adding a chorus about "stupid boys" who wreck her songs. It added a bit of fascinating, if ugly, reality to the star's precious world. But it wasn't enough to bring Jewel completely down to earth or to alter the overriding image of her as a literal-minded sprite - the Melanie of the '90's.

Alone on a dark stage, washed in deep purples and blood red lighting that seemed to match her moody music, Jewel stood alone with her guitar and sang. At first her voice was strong and easily met the challenge of the scale leaping original tunes that earned her this year's American Music Award for new artist, as well as a Grammy nomination. But as the evening progressed, her lower register blew out totally due to a sore throat she had been nursing. Had she not mentioned why she stuck to her soprano for the latter half of the concert, the adoring audience might not have noticed the problem. The show was extremely short, just under an hour maybe, because of her throat, or it may have been that she was slightly miffed at some of the audience members. Specifically, the guys in the crowd who repeatedly interrupted her with shouts in quiet moments, such as when she told the story of her pal who killed himself because he was fat and didn't think anyone would ever love him. And during her story of a friend who died of AIDS. During the AIDS segment, a guy credely yelled from the balcony "Jewel, take it off." Shapely Jewel who is obviously still getting used to the notion of being the object of desire to many of her boy fans, was clearly taken asback by the outrageously bad behavior of that fellow. She was so shocked that she switched her set list so that the next song was "Pieces of You," on which she did an onstage re-write of the song in the correct meter that went: "Stupid boy, stupid boy, he thinks he's smart, he thinks he's cool in the middle of my show he shouts `Take it off, Jewel.'" It was impressive at how fast on her feet this young performer was. Fron that point on, she had the entire house in her pocket. The evening's highlight came a little later in her obligatory encore, where she played a very hot version of her radio hit "Who Will Save Your Soul." In spite of it being such a brief concert, it was more eventful than most.

So here is the info again (is this in the FAQ?). There is a book called "MINDFIRE: Dialogues in the Other Future", written by Alexander Blair-Ewart. It's a series of interviews conducted by the author with what he calls "some of the most provocative thinkers and activists in the world today." Chapter 8 contains his interviw with Jewel, and since this is a book of philosophy, it explores and expands upon Jewel's ideals, more than her music as TV or radio interviewers do. It was written in 1995, around the end of Jewel's small residency gigs, before she significantly hit the charts. Mindfire is published by a Toronto pulisher, Somerville House. The cover price is $24.95 Canadian, but I seem to recall that they accept the same price in American funds, and include shipping to the U.S. for that price. (That may have changed though so don't hold me to it.) For more info or to order online, go to their new site at: http://www.sombooks.com/adult/catalogue/1895897432.html Mindfire: Dialogues in the Other Future ISBN 1-895897-43-2 Somerville House Publishing 3080 Yonge St., Suite 3000 Toronto, Ontario M4N 3N1 Canada (416) 488-5938 If you're into metaphysics and philosophy, you'd probably find this a pretty interesting book in its entirety. Otherwise, I'd say it's still worth the 25 bucks for a serious Jewel fan to have in his or her collection, especially if you like what she has to say as much as you like her music. Somerville House is a pretty small publisher by the way, so this might well become collectible in the future too.

This is my first JC, so I'm pretty psyched. This is all about the concert I missed at the Wadsworth Gym (Colby College), in Waterville, ME. There is a (small) photo of Jewel acompanying the article, but I cannot scan it. If anyone would like to, e-mail me and I can send it to you. From: Bangor Daily News, Monday, March 3, 1997. By Kristen Anstead. JEWEL SPARKLES IN COLBY CONCERT Crowd's chatter mars performance by Grammy-nominated singer On Friday night at Colby College, the Grammy-nominated singer-songwriter Jewel performed in Wadsworth Gym. I pushed my way through the doors with a young, mostly female crowd to find a good spot on the bleachers where the scoreboard wouldn't block my view. A group called The Rug Burns from San Diego opened for Jewel. They will be continuing their tour with her for the next 40 days. The lead singer, Steve, is Jewel's boyfriend and appears in her video "You Were Meant For Me." His folk-rock group played "Lockjaw," "The ABCs of Love," and "Gold Gym's Guy." Some songs involved audience participation for the chorus, and the band members even pulled kids from the front row up onstage to take a picture with them. The most entertaininy performer was the percussionist, Stinky, who used his drumsticks on everything from a walking snare drum to Steve's shoes. Jewel opened with "Near You Always," from her 1994 album "Pieces of You." She played a good mix from that album and also performed new songs. She was joined by a cellist and a percussionist, and even the members of The Rug Burns came out to accompany her. For the hit "You Were Meant For Me," she and Steve sang together. Jewel told a story of writing the song in Mexico while on a three-day vacation. She and Steve had started out to go whale watching but ended up on a boat with narcs doing a drug bust. They were offered machine guns and a share of the recovered drugs. To entertain the Colby crowd, Jewel jokingly sang the line from Alanis Morissette's famed song: "Isn't it ironic?" Throughout the concert, Jewel used her little-girl voice to tell stories about the origins of her songs. Some were humorous, such as the drug bust, and some were not so upbeat, such as "Amen," about a friend who overdosed on heroin. Jewel's father, Atz Kilcher, was also at the concert. Toward the end, he came onto the stage and recalled singing in bars with a younger Jewel at home in Alaska. Then, the father and daughter sang a very impressive yodeling song which Kilcher wrote. Both Jewel and The Rug Burns were personable. They talked to the crowd and joked with each other and were very real. A colored light show, with projections and spotlights, gave the gym a mystical feeling. It was hard to pay attention, though, because the inattentive crowd chatted through the whole show. The audience perked up and cheered when Jewel said the words "beer" and "pot," but then continued to talk it up when the songs started again. Jewel did soothe the crowd periodically with some of her lullaby-like songs, such as "Angel Standing By," which she wrote to put herself to sleep at night. The lights made her look angelic and some of the people in the back even hushed up through this last number.

I'm very pleased to announce that Jewel will be on a special edition of "The Album Feature" next Friday night, on the radio station I'm at in Detroit, 93.9 The River. We normally play an album in its entirety every weeknight at midnight, but this time instead of playing Pieces Of You, we have assembled a very nice collection of Jewel's rare promos, soundtrack and compilation songs. As far as I know, it's the first time any commercial station has featured all of this material back to back (or most of it 'at all')! The special airs Friday night, March 14 at midnight, to coincide with Jewel's upcoming concert in Detroit which falls on Sunday. The River is a 100,000 watt FM station that covers Detroit and much of southeast Michigan, parts of Ohio including Toledo, and southwestern Ontario. If you're within earshot, tune on by!

Now on with the review... I got to the Music Hall at about 8:20, missing most of the Rugburns' set, so I don't remember the songs (although I do remember "Sky-Fuckin'-Line of Toronto"...hilarious). Anyway, they were real funny, and yes, Stinky did play drums on Steve's feet. Now onto Jewel... She came on by herself, singing "Near You Always", wearing a purple collared shirt, with grey (?) pants. Here's the setlist (although about 2 songs are missing, and it's out of order): Near You Always Morning Song Stranger Cold Song Run, Tonto, Run Moon Over Austin ABCD (All of the Above) (Yes, she did sing this one) Race Car Driver Angel Standing By You Were Meant For Me [w/ the Rugburns] Foolish Games Little Sister Rocker Girl (I think she played this one) Painters Adrian (Yes, she played this one too) [w/ Steve and John] Sometimes It Be That Way Don't Fragile Flame Encore: Who Will Save Your Soul [w/ the Rugburns] Love Is A Rose [w/ Steve] Amen The crowd was far beyond amazing. No screaming during songs, only twice did I hear "I love you Jewel". She was as happy as I'd ever seen her. She talked after every song, even stopping songs to talk to us. One funny moment was when EVERYBODY was requesting songs. One girl yelled out "Play Jessica!", and Jewel replied with a simple "Shut uuupp". She also asked the crowd "Little Sister or Painters?" Both songs got a good response, so she played both. During Painters, however, she forgot the lyrics. A guy in the audience gave her the words, and she invited him onstage. Jewel then pulled out her sheet of lyrics, re-read them, and continued the song. Ironically, she played Adrian, after all the talk about that song on the list. And for the record, I love "Run, Tonto, Run". This, to me, wasn't a concert. It was like hanging out with friends. It was an experience. Jewel talked to us as if we were her closest friends, and treated the Toronto crowd to 21 (!) songs. If ANYONE taped this show, I'd love a copy.

She did show up at MuchMusic though, 2 hours later than originally scheduled, and she looked and sounded fine for the brief interview. Unfortunately the VJ who talked to her one of the worst of MuchMusic's bad lot, and his unimaginative, moronic questions drew little new information for us. The one notable thing Jewel did say was that she feels her stardom is putting more of a gap between her and people , and that people seem to think that deserves to be there. She said that instead of people worshipping her and giving her presents, she wishes they would believe in themselves and look at their own dreams are, because she doesn't like being put on a pedestel. The interview was over in a few short minutes, and Jewel didn't perform any music. The camera panned over to the street-level windows a few times, where a small crowd of crazed, delerious Jewel fans pounded on the window and waved posters and Jewel CDs, and generally put her on a pedestel.

So wothout wasting any time, here we go. First I skipped the day from school to see Jewel on Much Music. I waited in the cold for hours, because Jewel was behind schedule (understood). I did not leave the front of the building the whole entire time, and when I did go to the store across the street to warm up, Jewel just happened to arrive. Well from then on the rest of the day was perfect. I saw Jewel dooing her interview from the outside because they did not allow people inside. Whenever the camera came towards the people I had to hide in case my parents were watching at home. As Jewel was leaving, she was kind enough to sign a couple of autographs, even though she was in a hurry. THE CONCERT. There is only one word that fully describes the concert, PERFECT. The audience was so quiet, it was as if I was the only person in the whole entire building. My friend and I were very impressed with the performance of The Rugburns. It was our first time seeing them and we both agreed that they were the best opening band that we have ever seen. The Jewel concert was just wonderfull. Jewel was in high spirits, she admitted that she was feeling giddy. She loved the well behaved audience to the point where she said that ahe wished she could bring us along for the rest of the tour, and we could beat the N.Y. audience with sticks. At one point she forgot the lines for Painters, and asked one of the guys from the audience, I think his name was Paul, to hold the words to the song in front of her. There were many funny and entertaining events durring the night, too many to bore you with. As for the songs, I don't remember every single one in order, but Ill name as many as I can. There were about three duets with Steve, After two of them Steve kissed Jewel gently on the cheeks, which I think was adorable. She sang Little Sister WWSYS Foolish Games Painters Adrian I'M Sensitive YWMFM Angel Standing By The ABCD song Love is a Flower (The Neil Young Song) Race Car Driver Life's a Big Mystery Show Hotel Angel???? Sorry that's all I remember, I was so mesmorized by the show, I don't remeber every single detail. In the words of my friend (Jewel virgin at that) "It was a good fucking concert" At ths moment I feel I need to thank people. My friend Paul who came along and made the concert even cooler. Gerrit for the tapes, they really made a difference, and afcourse to all of you for reading my borring posts I only have one regret, That I wasn't introduced to Jewel Earlier. until next time Wojtek wojtekk@spanit.com "Ana NG and I are getting old and we still haven't walked in the glow of each others majestic presence" They Might Be Giants From owner-jewel-news@smoe.org Fri Mar 7 15:49:18 1997 Return-Path: Received: by jane.smoe.org (SMI-8.6/SMI-SVR4) id PAA03591; Fri, 7 Mar 1997 15:49:17 -0500 Message-Id: <199703072049.PAA03591@jane.smoe.org> Date: Fri, 7 Mar 1997 09:38:35 -0500 (EST) From: James McGarry To: jewel-news@smoe.org Subject: Jewel News: 3/6 Toronto Show (Danforth Music Hall) Sender: owner-jewel-news@smoe.org Precedence: bulk content-length: 3182 Heya EDAs, Just finished reading Wojtek and Derek's reviews. ... I drove in and met up with Steve Ito a while before the show. Learned that Dan "TowelMan" Stark would not be there (ya missed a good one). Steve played the MM interview with Master-T it was pretty boring, and Jewel sounded somewhat ok, but not quite up to snuff. I think we all had pretty low expectations for this show, especially after Sean's Beacon Hill review. We got there just in time to miss one or two Rugburns' songs. They were amazing BTW. They work with Jewel, every well. Sometimes she seems like their Den Mother :-) Then after the lights came up we caught Andrew Levstein in the distance up near the stage. I'll say straight out that I think Jewel thinks she owes Toronto something. Admittedly she has always been well received here... ... but it was a loooong set, she was probably on stage for nearly two hours before the encore! This was completely unexpected. Serendipitous even. It was a good show by any means, but it was far from the best TO show. And one has to think that she may have cancelled appearances to save up for TO. {If that was the case, Jewel, Honey,... thanks!} It was a bit quieter than I expected, though there was a lot of screaming, even during songs, one girl directly behind us either screamed or talked during the entire show. *sigh* There were only two proposals of marriage and four or five "I love you Jewel"s and _thankfully_ no one yelled "Take it off". But if people on the list thought this was a quiet show, Bathurst Street Theatre would have shocked them, that show you could easily have heard a pin drop on stage! Admittedly Jewel did win over the crowd a bit and the screaming and talking slowed to a mostly manageable level. I could have been worse though and well, I think the next one will be... ...Beatles syndrome where you can't hear the music for the screaming. Now Derek and Wojtek have already posted set lists so I'll just go over highlights, but I was really MORE surprised by what she _didn't_ do: no Marital Carnival, no Carnivore, no My Own Private God's Gift to Women, no Behind the Wall, no Boy Needs a Bike, no Nikos... etc. Despite missing a few I wanted to hear :-) Moon Over Austin was really very pretty, I wished she could've drawn that one out a little longer. She played an amazing version of Sometimes It Be That Way. And Love Is A Rose was a treat, it was really sweet the way they did that, Steve and I were considering yelling out to, "Make Steve Yodel." But she did anyway. He's a goof, but a loveable goof :-) In all it wasn't BST, but was a lot better show than we'd been lead to expect. Certainly in sheer length it was amazing.

You guys won't believe the most incredible day I have had! Dan and I drove to Pittsburgh today for Jewel's concert. We picked up our tickets and then snooped around the Pulumbo center for a while. WE met up with Fish(sp) and his friend ( I'm sorry, I can't remember your name). Then we got to see the setup and sound check from the rugburns. Fish met Stinky and got the Rugburns to sign the EDA posters he had. We stayed for like three hours I think. It was so awesome. We were like the only civilians in the place. Well, then Dan and I left for dinner. We can back and found a parking spot. We had orginally managed to get two balcony seats at the last minute. They were seperate and so far away. This guy outside Pulumbo asked us if we had tickets so inquired for further information. We ended up trading our tickets and $30 for a pair of tickets on the floor. Section 4b seat 4. Almost right in the middle. Two rows from her!! It was so awesome. This was my first concert ever and It was Jewel. I love the Rugburns lots. THey are so much fun! Well, anyway, to continue with my first episode of Angel bliss, Dan and I sat beside each other until The Rugburns were over. Then these othere people(one hour late to the concert) decided to show up and claim thier rightful seats. See, I had one ticket and the other was for a seat on the floor which was way over on the side. IN the back. So Dan let me stay in that seat(Thank you so much sweetie!) I had a blast. Jewel was less than 10 feet away from me. She glanced my way quite a few times. I was thrilled. I think that this experience has spoiled my future concert adventures. Anyway, two of the girls that were sitting by me left and there was room for Dan to come back. so I went in search of him in the crowd. Found him. and brought him back to second row and center just in time for one of his favorites, Chimebells! It was so wonderful. She did an encore with WWSYS and another song which elludes me at the moment. Steve was there and played with her. It was great! Well, after all of this excitement, went around the the buses to see if we could see her. To our disappointment, we were not able too. WE stayed a bit longer to see if she would come out and meet some of us. Unfortunately, she didn't, but, We met up with some of our fellow EDA's and said goodbye. Dan and I got back in the car and they were playing YWMFM. It was such an awesome night. I love Jewel. She is so great. The Rugburns were awesome. Steve Poltz actually walked right by me to start signing autographs. If I was as head over heals as some of the teenage girls there, I would have fainted that he touched me in passing. This concert will live in my memory forever. It was incredible. I am sorry I missed the other EDA's that were there. Write me with all of your experinces, like did you meet, where were you sitting, etc... I would love to hear who went. Guys, This is like the most exciting day of my life. I haven't decided if that is an exageration yet or not but suffice it to say that I will never forget Jewel or what she's done for me.

Rich, another list member, and I left Cincy at 10:35 for Pittsburgh. Thinking it would take 5-6 hours, we were completely surprised to find ourselves at the Palumbo Center by 2:55. I took the ticket voucher sent to me by Dan Bogasz, a fellow EDA from Pittsburgh, to the ticket window and received in return my two FRONT ROW tickets!!! Dan you are the man!!! After recovering from shock we met up with Laura Tonn and Dan McLaughlin, two other EDA's, and walked straight through the back door at the Polumbo Center, and right into the auditorium where a sound check was being performed. Blending in with the other 3496 empty seats we proceeded to catch 3 warmup songs of the rugburns, and a talk through version of YWMFM by Steve. Afterwards I saw Jeff, a.k.a. Stinky, talking to a couple of teenie-boppers and went to introduce myself. This guy is incredibly cool; you should believe ALL of the good things you read about this guy! I asked him if he minded having all members of the Rugburns sign my two EDA posters, THANKS LARRY!, and he did so immediately. For those interested, here's what was written by each on each: John - Angels are rare, and you shine for Jewel & You make the world go round Jeff(Stinky) - You people make it all worth while & You Guys, Gals rule the Universe! Steve - I am the Devil & Satan Rules Thanks Stinky, and thank you Rugburns! After having signed the posters, Jeff stuck around to talk for about another 45 minutes. This guy is far more intelligent than meets the eye! He is truly a pleasure to be around. We then took our seats in the front row and I tried loading my Camcorder, THANKS for the tape Dan and Laura, but it wouldn't fit! I'm in the front row, and cannot even record the event! Oh well, I guess I'd be a spoiled brat if I could have had it all go right! The Rugburns take the stage, and for 30-35 minutes just completely rocked the place! These guys are awesome; I never expected anything like that. The stage prescence and absolute fun these guys had is the exact reason I ever started singing myself. After a 25-30 minutes intermission, Jewel then started her show with Near you Always (I'm terrible with song titles, I hope this is correct). She then proceeded to turn the Palumbo Center into a beautiful countryside, slowly painting each and every detail with her words and song. I forgot where I was occassionaly, thoroughly enthralled by what I was hearing. And when it was over, I didn't mind at all; I was completely satisfied having seen and heard all that was given. Thanks Jewel. Thanks fellow EDA's. And thank you Pittsburgh! Four and a half hours later I was back home in Cincinnati; drained but content. Fish PS - The night was capped off by a few EDA hugs. A great ending to a great day! Thanks for the Love guys!!

Since this was my first Jewel concert, I don't really have anything to compare it against, but I can't imagine her being much better. First of all, the Rugburns started off and were really good. This was the first time I've ever heard them and they're a really cool band. They did: Pile on the Hangover, Gold's Gym Guy, Me and Eddie Vedder, and some others that I don't remember off hand (sorry). Next Jewel came out. She looked great, sounded great (apparently her throat feels better), and she even said she was in a good mood. The crowd stayed pretty well behaved through the whole concert and she never looked annoyed. Here is the set-list to the best of my recollection (in no particular order): 1. Near You Always 2. Cold Song 3. Foolish Games 4. Little Sister 5. Adrian 6. Fragile Flame 7. I'm Sensitive 8. You Were Meant For Me 9. Don't 10. Angel Standing By 11. All the Animals 12. Run Tonto Run 13. Innocence Maintained 14. Deep Water 15. Race Car Driver 16. Morning Song 17. Silver Lining?? (song she did w/ Steve which talked about John Kruk limping around with one testicle) 18. Satellite 19. Chime Bells encore 20. Who Will Save Your Soul 21. Amen It was definitely worth the wait (almost a year) to finally see her live. Chris W. P.S. Jewel finally hit #1 on the VH1 Top Ten.

this is big stuff, something i havent seen posted in the mailing list, though possibly i missed it. but in response to a question about when will Jewel release her next album, she responded that with the release of the next single due, the new album wont be released for some time, but that she does hope to release some EP in the meantime!!!!!!!!!!! exactly what this would mean, i'm not sure, though it seems like it would be some form of a live album, possibly including material that wont be on either Pieces of You or Fritz Creek Store, thus being something somewhat more low keyed then an actual new release album. hmmmm, maybe it could shock the world and be the peter frampton live album smash type deal of the 90s. well, thats that. i'll send the transcript as soon as possible.

MTVixen: Hi, Jewel! JEWELoxoxo: Hi MTVixen: Well this audience has plenty to ask you, here we go! The first question tonight... JEWELoxoxo: ready MTVog: Jim007bon asks: You seem to have been rather an solitary child and teenager. If so, how do you feel that has shaped your art? JEWELoxoxo: in silence we hear who we will become. we creat ourselves in silence , because it allows us to hear ourselves. MTVog: CoDee2U wants to know: what do you take with you on the road to make you feel 'at home'? teddy bear, favorite pillow? JEWELoxoxo: Picture of the mountains back home, picture of my horse, eagle feather, silk pillow case. MTVixen: TruthfulA asks: First of all Jewel thank you for spending the time here on line, all your fans appreciate it....Now my question.... Were you surprised or even overwhelmed by the way your career has taken off and the great positiveness about your album ? JEWELoxoxo: YES I never thought sincerity would go that far. MTVog: Daisy963 asks: I think you are the greatest!! I just want to know how you would label your music, (pop,rock..etc.)? JEWELoxoxo: Honest? I am human I am all those things MTVog: Lovescoob asks: Have you met any other performers that you listened to when you were and aspiring artist JEWELoxoxo: BOB DYLAN, Ella Fitzgerald got away MTVixen: JenaLeigh asks: when u arent recording your songs, what other bands do you like to listen to? JEWELoxoxo: Ricki Lee jones, the replacements, and the Rugburns and baroque classical music MTVog: Spy flowe asks: Jewel, how's the book of your poetry going? I can't wait for it, you're a great writer JEWELoxoxo: Thank you, it is hard to find time to collect all the poetry. There is a small book of about twenty poems for sale at my shows. MTVog: Funnybon3 wants to know: What odd jobs did you have before making it in music? JEWELoxoxo: Bucking hay bails, ditch digging, cow milking, waitressing, secretary (which I sucked at) no laughing MTVixen: MAXMOUZE asks: Will "Foolish Games" be released as a single? JEWELoxoxo: Most likely. Would you like that? MTVog: HGrison asks: Love your music, do you find it draining to sing with so much emotion? JEWELoxoxo: Actually, it feeds me. It replenishes the redundancy of "the Biz", allows me to be sincere in an arena that isn't particularly sincere MTVog: Allsportj asks: was it hard going through with your parents divorce and do you think that's what inspired you to become a singer?? JEWELoxoxo: It was hard, but it caused me to depend on writing so that I could come to terms with my emotions it was like my therapist, and allowed me to become intimate with myself it is also to this day my best friend and greatest freedom I encourage everyone to write so that we can understand ourselves, instead of looking and others depending on others MTVixen: ApacheMis asks: You said that you have Horse(s). What kind do you have?? JEWELoxoxo: MUTT, appalusa, arabian and ? MTVog: Jmsdean17 asks: How long did the video for "You were mant for me" take to shoot? How many dresses did you rip? JEWELoxoxo: 1 day 1 dress MTVixen: ANJAFort asks: are there going to be any b-sides on any of the singles? JEWELoxoxo: Good question! I hope so MTVog: Travis404 wants to know: Are your songs based on true stories? JEWELoxoxo: Sometimes, usually it is a mixture of my life and what i see around me, none of our emotions are particularly unique. (we all have fear, lust, hope) It is mainly our expression of them that is unique MTVog: B Corp 00 asks: What would you say to someone who likes to write music and is an aspiring artist? JEWELoxoxo: I think cream rises to the top, do it because you love it, not for fame, and be the best in what ever town you are in following your passion is what matters. the universe will provide (help me I am drifting) MTVixen: TheGoocha asks: When's the new album coming out? (Xan) JEWELoxoxo: If I release foolish games as a third single, then, it could be a while, but I hope to put out something (an EP) in the meantime! MTVog: MediaWhiz asks: I heard your performance as Dorothy in the Wizard of Oz at the Lincoln Center benefit and thought it was excellent..any plans for more Broadway or acting?? JEWELoxoxo: I was glad the show only played once, and to get back to my own writing, HOWEVER, the rehersal and the show was very satisfying. But i think I would rater go into screen acting (Less redundancy) MTVixen: Seaplane asks: Why is the version of "You Were Meant for Me" on your CD different than the one I hear on the radio? JEWELoxoxo: because I can't stand my singing on the album version. plus, it is always fun to try something new MTVog: Chew u ou asks: I notice you value freedom and the right to vote. How did you become so in tune to polotics? JEWELoxoxo: I never considered myself to be particularly politically oriented, however, we are all humans we all live here, so it has just been a natural humanitarian interest, that i'm interested in and I am learning more about MTVixen: Stonewulf asks: My favorite song of yours has to be "Near You Always", is there a story behind it?? JEWELoxoxo: the classic case of the vulnerability felt just before falling in love. MTVog: A lot of people want to know where Jewel is from- Alaska... Canada...MaXaJoB31 asks: I hope I'm not too intrusive, but what kind of accent do you have? It's incredibly unique... JEWELoxoxo: I am from Homer, Alaska, My father is Swiss so it is possible I have some of his accent.? MTVog: Tycloahmi asks: what was it like going from a small town girl to having everyone know your name? JEWELoxoxo: It's strange. Fame is only an increased awarness of a person but it is not something I directly experience. It is an adjustment worth making. I love my life. And it is because of you guys i get to live my dream. MTVixen: Chew u ou asks: Jewel, what is your favorite book? JEWELoxoxo: One book, hmmmmm, that's impossible! Poetry: Pablo Neruda, Bukowski...Short stories: Kurt Vonneget, Jr., and Annie Dillard and the list goes on....... MTVixen: Raimbaut asks: WHAT WAS IT LIKE PERFORMING WITH MELISSA ETHERIDGE ON VH1? JEWELoxoxo: She is extremely gracious, and generous as a person and a performer. MTVog: Fool99 asks: Do you enjoy chatting online with all your fans??? JEWELoxoxo: YEP, I love it, it is nice to take out all the middle men. MTVixen: Ricktoe asks: do you have any brothers and sisters and what do they do??? JEWELoxoxo: 2 brothers, Atz, 20, world traveller, Great writer, Harmonica player, thinker and my hero.....SHane, very poetic, and magical, 25, great father, works with disabled children MTVog: EmilPfeif asks: Where is your favorite place in the world? JEWELoxoxo: the head of Kachamack bay, in Homer, Alaska.. Hawaii around January ain't bad either MTVixen: PredatorW asks: Will there be a Beck Jewel Duet? JEWELoxoxo: I'D love to! Do you know something I don't know? MTVog: Katwoman8 asks: Jewel...im a recent fan and i would like to know...does your life in singing leave time for other things?? like....going places with your friends and just having fun? like..a break from it all?? JEWELoxoxo: not really, but this is my life now and it beats waitressing anyday, because I work my brains out for something I believe in. and things like MTV online feeds me back MTVixen: We have time for one more question for Jewel tonight: MTVog: Kat5611 asks: is this all you want in life or do you want to do other things beside singing? JEWELoxoxo: I'll do many things with myself creatively, I miss marble carving, dance, I like to act, but my main goal is to live my dream everyday as it changes and that by living mine, people remember their own. I have a show to do so see you later. Thank you MTVixen: Thanks to Jewel for joining us MTVixen: here in the MTV Arena.

Morning Song Little Sister Don't Nicotine Love (the audience was SO quiet for this song) I'm Sensitive Sometimes It Be That Way Foolish Games You Were Meant For Me (w/Steve & band) Run Tonto Run (band) Deep Water (band) Just Passing Time - a new song i've never heard. i'm assuming that this is the title since it's the chorus. Emily (people were SO quiet for this, too) Fragile Flame (ditto) Cold Song - she started fingering the notes to POY and went into this song instead Silver Lining (w/Steve) Adrian (w/Steve and cello) Angel Standing By encore ------ Who Will Save Your Soul Amen she played for 1 hour and 30 minutes and 57 seconds. more later. :) eric :) -- Crash Boy's EDA Page --- http://members.aol.com/boycrash/crashboy.htm From owner-jewel-news@smoe.org Tue Mar 11 09:08:48 1997 Return-Path: Received: by jane.smoe.org (SMI-8.6/SMI-SVR4) id JAA04159; Tue, 11 Mar 1997 09:08:47 -0500 Message-Id: <199703111408.JAA04159@jane.smoe.org> Date: Tue, 11 Mar 1997 03:05:28 -0500 (EST) From: Paul2k@aol.com To: jewel@smoe.org Subject: Jewel News: CONCERT REVIEW: 9:30 club concert Sender: owner-jewel-news@smoe.org Precedence: bulk content-length: 8434 Ok. I asked Steve if he still needed new underwear, and he said yes. They all are constantly in need of new underwear, but they especially would like socks. So, if anyone is feeling generous and is going to see them in the coming weeks, you might want to bring them some socks and underwear (hello, Liz, I'm looking in your direction here). Steve wears hanes white t-shirt tops, Large and Stinky takes medium, as I presume John Castro does too. They want boxers, not briefs. And for socks Steve was particular in saying they would like white socks, but NOT tube socks. I'm not a big sock fanatic, so i don't know the other kinds, but just don't get them tube socks. For you people seeing the next show at the 9:30 club and perhaps the next couple shows, Lenedra will be there. She didn't perform any songs with Jewel (even though Jewel asked if she wanted to. not on stage, but lenedra told me this after the show). Anyways, I'd appreciate it if someone who has the chance to talk to Lenedra ask her how Hiranya is doing since we haven't heard from her in a long time. And everyone say hi to Bibi and be real nice to her. She's great. She's the merchandise person. She has frizzy hair that is a little longer than shoulder length. Just ask around for her. Give her something nice, too, like desserts or something. And tell her Paul says hi :) now for the review. I got down to the 9:30 club around 4:45 with a friend of mine and we hung around the entrance. I got Bibi to come to the door ("oh no. Not you guys again") and asked her to take somethings to get signed by Jewel including my EDA poster. It took her a while to get the stuff back to me, but she eventually did, and Jewel wrote a nifty little thing on my poster. I'll transpose it later. All the Rugburns drifted in and out of the entrance and i said hi to each of them and they said hi back. Oh, a news crew for channel 5 came out after doing an interview and asked us people in line the usual stupid questions, and I talked about the EDA's a bit and how i think that jewel is just a great performer. So I met up with, um...i forget his name :O Guy from PSU visiting friends down in VA, gave him the last EDA poster I had. We stood in front of the door making fun of people, like the young 9:30 club groupies waiting also to get in, and watching a drug bust across the street that turned up squat. We managed to get some cool posters of the picture of Jewel from HITS magazine that they had extras of (Rachel, i got one for you). Jon Reade was also there and we talked a little before he went way to the back of the line to stake out his place. When doors opened at 7:30, i was first in and got right up to the front of the stage and was immediately jostled and squashed by people. Not comfortable at all. I went out into the hall and took some posters down and kept them :) Then went up to the front of the stage and waited for over an hour. I asked Colin as he was setting up if Jewel was doing the MTV chat right there and then, and he said he didn't know. The Rugburns came on really late (like after 8:30) and played a great set that had the place rocking. They did that instrumental to start off (boy was that cool) and went on to do stuff including the ABC song, Treehugger, Good Morning I miss waking up next to you, I'm gonna UPS my heart next day to you, and others. Jewel did NOT come out to do any songs with the Rugburns (boo hoo). John the bass player did give me his camera to take pictures of the band which i did (i was scared though since the security had told us outside that anyone caught taking pictures would be kicked out). We waited for over an hour for Jewel to come out, which she did at 10 pm (argh). She started with (duh) Near you Always, went into Morning Song, did the Cold Song, um...and not necessarily in this order: I'm Sensitive, Nicotine Love, Stranger enter from the east, YWMFM, Fragile Flame, Racecar Driver, Run Tonto Run, Deep Water, Silver Lining, Don't, Adrian, Little Sister, Angel Standing By, Amen, Chime Bells (visibly struggling with her throat and i could just see her decide to skip to the end with the yodeling faster bit from the first chorus), WWSYS. She also did Video, the song i wasn't sure of at yesterday's performance in Philly, and followed that with a song that I think that i've heard before (either jewelstock or a java joes tape) that she says she doesn't play that much. It sounds kinda like Comfortably Numb in the guitar part, but a little weirder. Jewel stated that she was in a happy mood. The crowd was very good, which surprised the hell out of me since they were serving alcohol inside and it was in DC. But they were very quiet during the songs (with only a small handful of yellers) and the only person to request a yodel was in the front and asked in a normal conversation tone. jewel responded by saying something like "maybe later. Steve'll yodel. he's a good yodeller. He learned to yodel in only one day...(something something something)" Neal Copperman said that this was the best Jewel concert he's heard in a long time and he was happy to hear Nicotine Love live again since it's been like three years since he last heard it. I'm still wondering what they did with that female drummer. Oh, on the setlists, Jewel has Studies in Love #12 listed as "I Thought I Knew You". After the show, i waited around the front of the stage, and Neal Copperman came up to me (he'd arrived late) and gave me tickets for a future concert (Moxy Fruvous/The Nields which is going to kick ass) and we talked a bit. Then I ran into Kate Johnson and Vic (?) Devito, old list members who were at Jewelstock. Kate's the one who is friends with Shannon Worrell, part of the group September 67 that's getting some notice. If you like Patty Rothberg, Patty Griffin, and other females with a bit of a country twinge, check out September 67. Anyways, Stinky came out on stage and started signing stuff, and soon after, Jewel came out between Steve and John and started signing stuff. I was surprised and caught in a tidal wave of humanity rushing towards the stage (the place was 2/3 empty, but still, woah). I squeezed my way out and Kate pointed out that Lenedra was sitting backstage talking to some people. I grabbed my EDA poster and went to the backstage entrance and asked the security guy if i could go back there, and he said no. But i poked my head in and held up my poster and said "Lenedra, would you sign this please?" and she smiled and said yes and waved me in. So i went up to her and got it signed. She said "I could see you from the balcony." and i said "really? no way" and she said, "yeah, it's not hard to find you guys in the crowd" and smiled. She's so nice. She asked who designed the posters, and i said Larry from California, and she looked thoughtful and I said, "I don't think you've met him...no wait, you did meet him. At the Beacon theater." and she said "i don't remember..." and i said, "he was sitting near you with his two kids" and she said "oh yeah. He designed them, huh?" So i talked a little more and said thanks and left her. I pursued the rugburns to sign my poster, as well as Colin the sound tech (who thought i was kidding when i asked for his autograph), and finally, i got Bibi to sign it. It was a pretty darn good concert, although i was a bit uncomfortable trying to bend over so that some short females behind me could see. You know what, I don't think that Jewel likes me. Whenever i go to concerts and i'm standing up front, she barely looks at me and rarely seems to "acknowledge" me, and never spits on me :( *grin*. Although, she did smile when me and (dammit, what's his name) held up his EDA poster at the line in I'm Sensitive. Someone please tell Jewel that the asian kid with glasses who turns up at her concerts isn't a scary freak tracking her down! oh oh oh, news alert. Jewel did NOT say Hands Manifest Thought (tm). I was amazed. I also did my requisite Dennis Harris impersonation by saying "that's deep Jewel", again while she spoke of the story behind Nicotine Love. You know what. Going to Jewel concerts without Rachel (Cornflkgl) just ain't as fun as they could be. Rach is a part of the whole experience for me. Dammit, we all need a little rachel in our lives :) That's about it. I think I'll go to sleep soon.

New York - 3/3/97 - Beacon Theater laura got to my house around 4:45, and we headed to the elizabeth train station to catch the 5pm train. got to penn station, had dinner at roy rogers (oooooh), and took the train uptown to 72nd. we had time before the concert, so we walked down to tower records in the snow and rain just so i could get the new deborah gibson cd (it's awesome guys :) finally got to the beacon where we ran into cj david. hadn't seen her since the temple show. it was pretty cool to see her again. we hung around for a bit in the lobby, but didn't see anyone for a while, so we went back to our seats. soon, we saw jared, russ, and steve. we talked for a while, then the lights dimmed for the rugburns. they were awesome again, and the crowd seemed to like them better than the day before. the crowd was filled more with teeny boppers, but they were more respectful than the bastards the night before. i think that jewel could feel it, too, cause she came out to sing 'old lover's house' with them, which she hadn't done the night before. during the intermission, jared, russ, steve, laura, and i met each other in the lobby again and ran into kathy and bryan (they were both at the show the previous night), and anthony amato and a friend of his, whose name escapes me. someone mentioned that sean hooks had posted where he was going to be sitting, so we all went down there to meet him. i made introductions to everyone. i think he was surprised to see so many people just meet him like that. well, we went back to our seats and enjoyed a much better jewel show than the night before. the crowd listened for the most part, but it was still loud. jewel's voice sounded a LOT better than the night before, and she played for longer, too. steve even sang 'silver lining' with her. and at the end, she yodelled, despite still having a sore throat, according to her. after the concert, the rugburns were signing again. the night before, i asked told john "i hear you like rachel's cookies," to which he responded, "yeah, they rock!" well, on monday night, i told him that i'd bring him a batch, provided i could get rachel's recipe, and he said that would be cool. then a whole bunch of us waited outside FOREVER at the side of the beacon. at one point, jewel stuck her head out of a second floor window and waived to us, to everyone's delight. but it wasn't enough, and people yelled "JEWEL! JEWEL!" i had a bright idea (yeah, right) of singing a song. so i started signing 'i'm sensitive', and lots of people in the area joined in. we got as far as the end of the second verse, when some girls near the door decided to break out into YWMFM, and they drowned us out, so we joined in with them. and they thought actual new yorkers were weird. jewel fans in new york and weirder. :) we pretty much roamed all over the place looking for a possible exit point of jewel. some of us hung around the front, and after a while, decided to go catch the subway back to penn station since it seemed hopeless. well, bryan, kathy, laura and i were waiting on the subway platform for the train, when two non-EDAs showed up who were waiting with us in the front of the beacon. "Man, you should've waited 10 more minutes!" he said. ack! 10 more minutes and we could've met jewel again. dammit. oh well. so we got back to penn station and had some pizza while waiting for bryan and kathy's train. it arrived and we said our goodbyes. laura walked over to where our trains were and found that had arrived, too, so we got on and went home. eric :) -- Crash Boy's EDA Page --- http://members.aol.com/boycrash/crashboy.htm From owner-jewel-news@smoe.org Wed Mar 12 09:24:24 1997 Return-Path: Received: by jane.smoe.org (SMI-8.6/SMI-SVR4) id JAA21698; Wed, 12 Mar 1997 09:24:24 -0500 Message-Id: <199703121424.JAA21698@jane.smoe.org> Date: Tue, 11 Mar 1997 15:18:43 -0500 From: Crash Boy To: jewel@smoe.org Subject: Jewel News: CONCERT REVIEW: New York 3/2/97 review Sender: owner-jewel-news@smoe.org Precedence: bulk content-length: 3343 well, a lot has been said about the three concerts, so i'll make my reviews short and try not to rehash what's already been said. New York - 3/2/97 - Beacon Theater i met rob and tammy after a screw up at the metuchen train station. we figured it wouldn't be so bad since there was another train set to come. well, the next one didn't come for another half hour. oops. well, we were a bit late for the EDA dinner at the mad fish that rob and tammy had set up. oh well. :) we finally got there to find some EDAs already there. they were: larry, his kids nicole and daniel, jennifer yecko, stacey murphy and her two friends, and amy. and shortly afterwards, jon reade and his friend, anthony amato and renee, and jared and thirza showed up. our bill came to $369, and mike connel picked up the tab. just kidding. :) then we headed down to the beacon. pretty much hung around. larry saw bob. i bought a t-shirt. after a while, it was time for the show to start, so we headed in. rugburns were awesome. i had only previously heard them from the jewel/rugburns compilation tape i heard at lizstock, which i liked. so i looked foreward to seeing them perform. unfortunately, the crowd was a bit loud, and i had a premonition that they'd be that way the whole night. damn premonitions. yes, the crowd sucked ass. i'm not going to say much, but i felt terrible. midway through the show, i knew that i was witnessing the worse jewel show i have ever seen. it was a combination of the crowd's unruliness and her sore throat, which got worse during the show. *sigh* after the show, i gathered my things while waiting for the crowd to disperse. stacey and her friends saw me, and i beckoned them to wait out the crowds with me. after the crowds were thinning out, i looked over to where thirza had gotten the block of seats for other EDAs, and i saw lenedra! woo hoo! i ran over to the group. i whipped out my 8x10 picture of lenedra and i from jewelstock, a silver pen, and asked her to sign it. that was awesome. and stacey whipped out her camera to get a picture of her and her friends with lenedra that i took. then lenedra had to go, and we left for the lobby. in the lobby, the rugburns were signing autographs. there were girls all over them. i was a bit surprised. well, after getting desired autographs, being wisked out of the beacon, and stacey's father arriving to pick her up, we went to the side of the beacon, where a large throng of people were gathered hoping to see jewel. well, deciding that we weren't going to see her, and finding out the jennifer had a pass to the Z100 post-concert party, we decided to go there to see how many people could get in with a pass for only two people. rob, tammy, jen, and i got in while jared, thirza, and amy were left outside. sorry guys. but i got to meet jewel again, got my 8x10 of she and i at jewelstock signed, and got that birthday message recorded. i also snagged the Hits cover promo off the wall. then rob, tammy, amy, and i headed to penn station where amy took the path home and we waited for our train, while being amused by the drunk girl. got back to metuchen and since it was quite late by that time, i thanked rob and tammy and we said our goodbyes. eric :) -- Crash Boy's EDA Page --- http://members.aol.com/boycrash/crashboy.htm From owner-jewel-news@smoe.org Wed Mar 12 09:25:09 1997 Return-Path: Received: by jane.smoe.org (SMI-8.6/SMI-SVR4) id JAA21722; Wed, 12 Mar 1997 09:25:09 -0500 Message-Id: <199703121425.JAA21722@jane.smoe.org> Date: Tue, 11 Mar 1997 16:59:55 -0800 (PST) From: Matt Willcourt To: jewel@smoe.org Subject: Jewel News: PRINT MEDIA: Jewel in Rolling Stone Sender: owner-jewel-news@smoe.org Precedence: bulk content-length: 510 Sorry if this has already been posted, but I have 400+ unread messages.

To: jewel@smoe.org Subject: Jewel News: LONG CONCERT REVIEW (1/4): These are days of miracle and wonder.... Sender: owner-jewel-news@smoe.org Precedence: bulk content-length: 6588 Okay, kiddies, come gather round the campfire, great-grandpa's gonna tell you what it was like back in the olden days, before Jewel went into seclusion, when the flame burned brightly and magic happened every day around the elders once known as the "everyday angels." I'm gonna tell you about how magic it was when the "EDAs" (as they were known) shared hopes and dreams, the anticipation of seeing Jewel and her choir, The Rugburns (yes, the very same band that the legendary and world renowned Steve Poltz started and kept alive until he became so big that he bought a catholic boys' school and turned it into an ashram to teach the spiritual connectedness of beer, Jim Beam, hot dogs, learning about love, and keeping time in a sort of Runic rhyme) and the lessons of spirit that held them (and later the world) together in a time of diffuse energy and anomie. Back then, there were so many things to share as the EDAs all met one another for the first time. In fact, many of their stories went untold because too many things were happening to them one after the other, all centering around the music and spirit of Jewel and Steve, that it was hard to take time out to report on it. I can't tell you everything, cause we'd need to have a year-long retreat for that (maybe some summer at the Fritz Creek Vortex and the Kilcher Museum of Music and Healing in Homer), but let me just talk about one week in March of 1997, back in the 20th Century! I took your grandparents (my kids Daniel and Nicole) to their first two Jewel shows then. They were 14 and 12, respectively. After flying from L.A. to NYC (just imagine the horror of "travel" before the transponder technology was stolen by the protorevs from the Pentagon and sold to Toshiba for commercial use!), we all drove up to Providence, R.I., where we saw Jewel AND the Rugburns perform together (the reviews are all in your wrist chips and the archives at the museum, so I won't go into the concert that night or the next night at the Beacon Theater in New York City now). The highlights of that were not only the chance to hear and see Jewel and the Rugs close up, even getting in to the wonderful sound check at Providence; no, the highlights were also in the fact that the EDAs were meeting one another in person and live, many for the first time, although every encounter (yes, every one) was exactly like meeting an old, old friend. At Providence, we talked to all the Rugburns, they always were the warmiest, happiest, most irreverently talented "party band" in the history of the world; it was no accident that they soon became the most successful, as well.  EDA Dennis Harris (yes, the famous shaman) and I met for the first time. We previously had conspired to present a 15-inch chocolate chip cookie to the band with chocolate and vanilla icing saying "The Rugburns Kick Donkey," and "EDAs welcome the Rugburns," all around Dennis's flying shroom angel design ("all god's veggies got wings" -- Howlin' Harris, 2016). You should have seen how they loved it! a lot of the EDAs met at a great ribs restaurant (you don't even remember meat, do you?): Alan Bershaw (the first Secretary of Music in the U.S. when it was made a cabinet level post) and his co-conspirator Amy Jo, Dennis, Teg Godwin (whom I already had met in L.A. and at LizStock, she's my brother, man), and Phil Kelnhofer, the "tee-shirt guy" immortalized in Poltz's song from 1999. I had to leave the pork fest early to take Secretary Bershaw and his entourage to conduct the sound check. The venue was about a half mile away, just two easy turns. But Dennis had messed with the energy, and I got lost; it took 45 minutes to get there! I went back for my kids at the motel to bring them to the venue, in time to stroll in during the sound check, greet all the Rugburns, plunk down in the first row, get Steve's permission to record their part of the show, hook up to the soundboard, plunk down in the front row (thanks to Teg's ingenious use of elbows and my talent for Filling Tiny Spaces), unfurl the EDA banner, and have a delightful conversation with Atz Kilcher. I had imagined a crusty geezer from the description Jewel had given in prior concerts (I checked and found NO sign of bushy, untrimmed eyebrows). Instead, I saw a young man glowing with a beatific light, laughter in his eyes and a warm, enthusiastic smile on his face. I introduced myself to Atz and started a conversation with him. I told him that I imagined it must be hard to separate out the feeling of parental pride in forming an objective view of how special his daughter Jewel is, but that I wanted to assure him that whatever he feels is shared by many others, and that Jewel is really, really, uniquely special and wonderful. He told me that he has been around music all his life, and that he was pretty sure he could be and was being objective about the fact that he agreed fully. At the show, the EDAs surrounded the front of the stage for Jewel like spiritual bodyguards. There was Jared (it was his 1,412th Jewel concert)(I think), Eric Haglund, Chris Snyder (who previously claimed to have won the cookie contest with his own two tins of home-made chocolate chip cookies), Jason??(I think; the memory fades, alas), and some others whose names I regret to say I cannot recall). We acted like angels, getting autographs (thanks to Bibi) for all the kids who asked us (except the drunk one in my face who offered me 20$ if I could get his girlfriend to meet Jewel; he kept calling me "Dennis" and whined over and over, even when I told him there was nothing I could do, that I wasn't likely to get to talk to Jewel myself (I didn't, in fact), and that if I could, I wouldn't take MONEY for doing that. His gf was soo embarrassed and tried to apologize for him; I whispered "It's not your fault; I bet you're gonna be washing your hair a lot when he keeps calling you" -- response: big grin! After the show, we hung around and talked more with the Rugburns and Atz. The Rugs and Atz all signed Nicole's Jewel tee-shirt, and the Rugs all signed Daniel's, too. (At the Beacon the next night, Lenedra -- who sat immediately across the aisle form us --also signed Nicole's tee shirt; it must have been one of the very first Jewel shirts signed by both of her parents! Now have a cup of hot soylent and use the latrines, and I'll go on with my story if you bring old great grand-dad some greasy greasy hot dogs on a buttered up bun.

After the show, we talked again to all the Rugs. Stinky ran away with three of the messengers of the goddess Sekhmet, but John took me and my kids backstage into the Rugs' dressing room to get a picture of him and "the cookie." After we came out, we watched while Steve taught the chords of YWMFM to a mesmerized nine-year-old lad. Atz walked up, Dennis gave him a tape of the Boston paradise show and the Jewelstock tapes (nobody ever complained, but some of us wondered what he would think about some of the songs, as he told us he had not heard any of Jewel's recent songs, and the night before was the first time he had heard her perform since before POY was released! Atz was returning to Alaska from NYC the next morning, but he told us he has a compilation of his own more recent material, we mentioned Igor's label idea, and he asked if we could distribute it for him through the net, which we jumped up and down about; all I could say to the EDAs then is "it's in the works." Then Atz and Steve took a look at my "designed by Stinky" Rugburns limited edition tee shirt. On the spot, Steve and Atz wrote and sang me a song about my shirt and how my belly hangs over my belt. This one goes on the resume reel for my kids! ("I'd rather have a shitty body than a shitty resume" --Steve Poltz.) We finally said our goodbyes (except for Dennis, who explained the meaning of life to me and my daughter until 2:30 the next morning. He gave her two "prototype" EDA pins, one of which I wore while getting my picture taken with Jay Leno the following Friday, but I'm getting ahead of myself here). My kids LOVED meeting Dennis; he talked directly to them. My son later remarked that my friends were really neat! (he was prepared and in fact eager to find to the contrary, simply because I promised that they would be really neat, even though I hadn't yet "met" most of them face-to-face, and it's his "job" as an adolescent to poke holes in the thought balloons written by others! I certainly did!). We slept till nearly noon, ate a camp breakfast (rubber crepes and sugar sauce, greasy breakfast meats, omelettes, etc.), and headed down the highway listening to Jewel concert tapes back to the Dirty Ol' Town with which all NYers and ex-NYers have an intense love/hate relationship. More EDAs gathered at the Mad Fish (how prohetic of the mutant pcb virus that caused Mad Fish disease in the early 21st Century!). Tammy and Rob had set it up for us to all meet there, so they did their job and came last. Meanwhile, we met up with Eric "Crash Boy," Jared (again), Tegan (again), Thirza (the 14 year-old girl who has guys committing Hari Kiri over her -- thanks to her, we all had good tickets together in the front orchestra), JenniferY from Ct., Stacey (StayMur) and her two friends, also from Ct., Brooklyn's own Anthony Amato (babe, Poe fan/ CPA) and his need for success (syn.: wife), Jon Reade, the insightful angel from Pa. (my kids loved him, too) and his friend, W1ggy2:"AMY!!!" (the one I wanted most to meet, based on the secret dossier I had read) and her friend, Katherine Hendry and HER friend, and I think Tom O'Brian was there (I know he was at the theater). When we got to the Beacon, we met up with other EDAs, but I don't remember who, because Bob Duffey and Steve Poltz popped their heads out of the entrance doors to talk to the gathering throng. Bob said "I thought you were going to call me for passes; they're all gone now, but tomorrow I can get you in." Well, Bob, how is it that you didn't get around to returning my calls, I thought (but didn't say); I just said that I would be flying back to L.A. the next morning (my kids asked Jon to adopt them so they could go without me)<----that's an Igoraphor--ed.). Bob was with his gf (Karen???), whose face blesses the cover of "Morning Wood." The hall lights flashed, and we scooted to our seats. You all have heard the tales of the hooterhooters, etc. I won't repeat them. At the show, at one point Jewel asked for requests, and I yelled for Fritz Creek Store. Lenedra leaned over to my daughter and asked her if that was the internet fan club. "Yup." When the show ended, she signed Nicole's Jewel shirt, and I took everyone's picture with 'Nedra, but she seemed rushed and didn't wait for me to ask for one. Maybe another time, I thought. My car was parked right next to the theater, so I got posters for a few of the EDAs who wanted them. We said our goodbyes to the EDAs who hadn't ditched us to go to the secret party, and returned to LI to decompress in the barium assault chamber before my return flight to L.A. early Monday morning. I was still on an upbeat feeling, though, and I knew I would be going to the Leno taping on Friday. Now cadetlets, go fill up the tupperware with dirt, and I'll finish the story.

Sender: owner-jewel-news@smoe.org Precedence: bulk content-length: 7676 Meanwhile, I got back to the land of smoke and mirrors, where reality is perception. One perception I KNEW I had was a friend of a friend who works for Leno as his "right-hand" guy (guess that makes Jay an honorary lefty! Like Einstein!). I had called my "friend-once-removed" (he's a great guy, one of the funniest in the world of MY limited perception; he is the mastermind behind the greatest practical joke in the history of the musical pantheon (a story for the retreat) about 2 weeks before, as soon as I heard about Jewel's scheduled appearance. At that time, he told me he could only possibly get 1 or 2 tickets for me, and he asked me to call again the beginning of the week, which I did. I called from the airport when I landed from NYC in L.A. last Monday. He told me that I was "on the list" for two, and to arrive by about quarter to four so that we could get *good* seats. Meanwhile, back at the Dana Point Ranch, Tom & Nancy Morales had called me; they were shut out of tix by request becuz of the appearance that night of Poltz's predecessor as King of All Media, Howard ("my penis is tiny") Stern. Could I help? Well, I couldn't help directly, but I did suggest a "guerrilla strategy" that might work. I needed plausible deniablity, and I told the EDAs who begged to know the strategy that if I told them I would have to kill them. Besides, it could only work once, and if I got implicated, we all would be eating slain goose and broken golden eggs for eternity. When I got to the studio, I pulled up to the gate; there were Bob Duffey and El Poltzo Loco, 10 feet away. I zoomed past the perturbed guardian of the gate, and started yapping to Steve and Bob. Steve asked me to tell the EDAs that they should sign up for the Rugburns' mailing list, located at . He and the band had been reading the favorable reviews by EDAs that I had been forwarding to that site (at the retreat, I'll tell you how another EDA brought me together with the guy who runs the site [thanks, Jen!]), and they loved what they were seeing. Bob wanted another whole set of the stuff sent to him. I eventually parked and followed them into the studio. As we walked in, I told Steve that his friend Cindy Lee Berryhill was singing that night at McCabe's in Santa Monica, and that she and some of his other friends were coming to my place to watch the Leno show. He asked me if I could get him a ticket, and using my L.A. shoe phone I did it right on the spot. But Steve being Steve, five minutes later he told me he realized he probably couldn't make it anyway. I told him I would accept back stage passes at the Wiltern as retribution, Steve said "no problem," but Duffey then said "don't be so sure about that. (So, I was in Limboland again.) When we got to the building, I expected to be put in some kind of line, but I just walked in straight back to the stage, where dress rehearsals were occurring. They couldn't find my name on the list, nor my friend's name, but apparently that was not unusual; they sure knew who he was. The pages told me to see if my friend was in the "Green Room," and I was sent back there to hang until seating started. For two reasons, I can't tell you who was back there before the show. I was fed and watered, hung with my friend, and worried about my companion, who knew I would arrive first, but neither of us knew where the other would be. I was seated in a primo seat, 2d row from the floor, about 20 feet from the main set. I turned around, and my companion was sitting in the peanut gallery, so I waived her over, and we were in place. I started telling my guest about Tom & Nancy and how they were going to try to manifest admittance, when I looked up: there in the "very front row" was Nancy!! I ran up and tapped her on the shoulder, and we hugged the way all EDAs always did in that distant time. She was feeling WAY guilty, because she used my ploy, and it worked for her, but not for Tom, and he was stuck out in the parking lot. I was sure Tom didn't care that much, but Nancy sure did. Nancy, BTW, was a sorceress who legend has it taught Merlin a trick or two during HIS apprenticeship. I learned that night another reason why the legend obviously is true. Before the taping began, both my friend and Jay came out to warm up the crowd. One guy asked to get his picture taken with a polaroid, and Jay called for some more volunteers. Nancy raised her hand (while I stood, 3 rows behind her, pointing at her with both hands in the highschool basketball "him him foul foul he did it" cheer mode. (Didn't think I could remember that far back, cadetlettes?). Nancy turned around and motioned me imperatively to join her. I did. I'm afraid of Tom. I've seen what he can do to someone who disses Nancy. Jay asked us what we each did. I told him and asked him not to tell anybody (I really didn't want to upstage him, and I've dealt with this kind of thing before, so he could have been embarrassed; he sensed that and we just chatted about which of us had to spend more time dealing with the horrible people in my line of work. He asked Nancy what she did; she replied that she makes dresses. Jay:"What kind of dresses?" Larry: "Dresses Like the one she's wearing!" Jay: "That's not a dress, that's a nightgown" (I couldn't argue that point and win, but Nancy did, explaining the neuveax epexegesis that Jay (and I) bought into, no problema. Nancy and I had our photo taken with Jay (I was wearing the big EDA button Dennis had given me less than a week before, and the infamous Stinky-designed spewing Rugburns tee shirt under my civvies -- an 8x10 blow-up would be displayed ONLY at the April 6 Hot Dog Fest at Nancy's; the EDAs presciently decided to establish a verifiable chain-of-custody, which payed off when the religious zealots wanted to confirm Nancy's elevation to Sainthood years later; a reprint is in the Homer shrine), and while the developing souvenir was handed to me, Nancy went up close to Jay and whispered to him that her husband was stranded in the parking lot, asking if there was any way for him to get in. Jay shouted (with a wry smile), "Your husband's in the parking lot?? That's terrible. What does he look like?" Nancy: "he's Hispanic." Jay: "Oh, THAT helps. I need to find ONE Hispanic guy in the parking lot, like there's only one in all of Burbank!" then, to all his staff: "Go find him and bring him in here, find him a seat or put him in the Green Room if there aren't any seats!" Within less than 2 minutes, Tom strutted in, and sat down in the seat in front of me! EDAs being brought together by JAY LENO!!! High fives all around!! Jewel was great, as the EDAs all knew, but her voice was not at its healthy best. I think the sound was tweaked considerably for broadcast, and some EDAs noticed her problems on television, too (I didn't). Amazingly, the future legendary Poltzmeister grinningly bobbed from side to side, looking like a Dreamer who had strayed too far from Freddie. Nancy screamed appropriately at an alluring vocal rift (you can hear her). Both Nancy and I were clearly shown on the program, during audience scans. And you didn't even need a freeze frame, like with that Sharon Stone movie (so I'm told). After the show, Jewelly was chatting up Howard, her apparent bud, as she left the stage. I yelled out "Everyday Angels," but no one on stage seemed to hear. Then it was off to hear Cindy Lee. Okay, rocketeers, one more part of the story and then it's time for your soma.

EDA Sinjin (later the Secretary of Defense in the John Castro administration) showed up. Elizabeth brought the archangel who previously was the San Diego radio deej who played Jewel on the radio for the very first time!! Ever!!! (ooh, that was a treat talking to him!). -- We watched Cindy Lee's brand new video for "High Jump": A splendid work of art, best music video ever (at least within 100% of its budget). Arty, funny, complex, symbolic; I had visions of the cover of the Doors album "Strange Days," Marcel Ophuls's "Children of Paradise," and Hieronymus Bosch or the Spanish film director Luis Bunuel working on mushrooms. It was really really good! -- The last guest left just before noon on Saturday.

Anyway, from the start, I had a hell of a time trying to get into the show. At Monday night's show, you couldn't give away tickets, and you couldn't get one last night. Finally, I did manage to get in, but by that time, I couldn't get close enough to the stage, so I went upstairs to the balcany and found a spot with a really good view. Before the show started, Steve came up and started looking at the crowd. I went over to talk to him and told him that they had a great set last night, but that I didn't have any socks for him. He said that was alright, said thanks, and mentioned that he was up there trying to get a feel for the crowd. I wished him luck and he went downstairs and the Rugburns came out a few minutes later to start the show. The set was pretty much the same as Monday's, but they didn't play the ABC song though one guy in the balcany yelled something and they came back with a song called "Balcany Guy" Don't know if that was written on the fly. Also, the set seemed a bit shorter, but I can't verify that. Steve said they were playing in Cleveland the next night, asked if anyone wanted to come along, and proceded to mention that Cleveland always gets a bad rap (which is true). The he asked which crowd/city was better. Baltimore or D.C.? I didn't have the presence of mind to yell out Cleveland. Overall, it was a good set, but it seemed that they were more energetic and got a better response Monday night. I don't know if it was the crowd, or the fact that I was only 15 feet away Monday night (Ed: I saw you in your hat, but I didn't know who you were). Steve was also plagued by tuning problems during the set. As usual, just about everyone loved Stinky. Jewel came on at exactly 10:00pm and her set was 1.5 hours. You could tell that her voice was bothering her a bit right from the start, but she did ask the crowd twice if she should yodel faster during Chime Bells. The crowd was a lot noisier and yelled alot while she played (unlike the first night), but it wasn't excessive, though she did stop once in a while to tell people to shut up. Most notibly during Adrian. She did play Sometimes It Be That Way :) and refined the lyrics to the song they wrote Monday (the one Paul Kim mentioned). She was really interactive with the crowd last night, much more than Monday's show. It was almost like she wants a reasonably difficult crowd (must have been the club setting). Funniest thing she did was when she stopped playing, went to her right of the stage, started signing autographs, walked back to her mic. and jokingly asked if that was enough to shut people up. Anyway, towards the end, she did work in "Hands Manifest Thought". Overall, a good show, but I thought Monday night was much better since there was less noise and I was closer. Finally she didn't come out and sign any autographs like Monday night, so I went out by the buses and waited for her. She came out of the club and immediately went into her bus, and then came out about 30 min. later so she could get into the car that was out front. On her way she signed a few autographs, but since people "cut" in line, I couldn't get her to sign my JS tapes. Then I think Lenedra saw me holding the j-card from the tapes and waved. Seconds later, they drove off, and then I went home. Anand p.s. Anyone have any European tour dates yet? Seeing her one two continents would be cool.

I just got my 4 hours of sleep and now have to type this. Whatever, here goes... (to get to the interesting stuff, skip down to the INTERESTING STUFF heading.) After a 45 minute drive to pick up Liz, we left at around 3:30 from Toledo. Directions provided by David were excellent, and we rolled into Lakewood nice and early. -then- we spent hours searching for this place called Angelo's Pizza where all the EDAs were supposedly meeting. After fruitless research and discouragement, I tell you we walked down every street and alley in Lakewood folks, we finally arrived to find it's not a restaurant, just a delivery place. ?! Then, couldn't even find ourselves a place to eat supper. sooo we hung outside the door for awhile with Mia and Misty, and Liz got combobulated with all the stuff she was bringing in, convinced me to bring my EDA poster in, and come 6:30 we found our seats. Liz and I seeked out Bibi and talked to her for a bit: no, Lenedra was not there, she flew back to San Diego. Oh well, let's get to the interesting parts. INTERESTING STUFF: The Rugburns came out around 7:30, and played the following songs (this is how I wrote them on my notes, you might have to interpret my shorthand..) Closer Lockjaw Gold's Gym Crazy crazy world (hadn't heard this song since LizStock!) Good morning 40 (birthday) -here I think he called these girls on stage and sang an improv about them. I think Liz was glowing green at these girls who apparently didn't appreciate the honor. ABC song (Steve accidentally left out the stanze 'Sometimes you miss your Q, and you don't know where you R...' I have no idea if on purpose to be ironic but my guess is he screwed the song up *duck*) Impala TreeHug (John was running on and off stage whenever the harmony vocals came in on the chorus /cute) Hitchhike (I was hoping to get to hear this song, the three of them bouncing around stage and whatnot..) A nice, 40 minute or so set. then Jewel came out in the green shiny top and black slacks for those who care. Setlist: NYA Morning Song Little Sister Enter from the East (great song) Cold Song (the crowd really liked this one) Racecar Driver Don't (amazing... mesmerizing song) Boy Needs A Bike Foolish Games -rugburns come on- YWMFM Adrian Run Tonto Run New Song (she wrote yesterday, we're calling it the Down song) Deep Water Emily (somebody requested this, Jewel asks, 'How do you know Emily?' the guy says 'from PBS' and Jewel goes into this long spiel on Charlie Rose being old or something.) Fragile Flame I thought I saw you last night Old Lover's House New Song #2 I'm Sensitive Angel Standing By Chime Bells -- WWSYS Amen A very well behaved crowd, if uninformed (calls for Silent Warrior and Ugly Girl,) but this was a high school auditorium and anything said by anybody could be heard by anybody else. So there were, um, conversations going on (strangely all ending in 'SHUT UP!!!') but this is, of course far from the end of the story... We waited in the lobby for the Rugburns to come out, said goodbye to David & wife, and finally Steve comes out and Liz freezed, her eyes glaze over. I tell you, their first meeting was soap opera material. Liz gave Steve her hat and Gold's Gym sweatshirt and had a long discussion on what kind of socks he wanted her to get for him... very cute :) John came out and Liz introduced herself, only to say, 'Hi John, oh yeah Steve one more thing...' While I, standing by with my EDA poster and preparing to meet Steve.... Dan Stark had arrived during the Rugburns set and now was out creating mischief as the Radio Producer he is. He took it into his hands and led us back into the auditorium quickly, I felt bad about abandoning Steve but hey, I'll see him again. Dan led the four of us backstage where he met up with a manager type person, who asked how many of us there were. Basically, we find ourselves in the after-show meeting area for radio people, at least that's the idea I got. Jewel will be coming shortly, they say. Now Liz had brought in her JewelStock tapes, I had no idea why. It turns out now she was going to be able to get the cards autographed. Premonition or something, we owe Dan our life for being such a prominent industry person. He actually planned to have Jewel do a quick promo for the radio special on the River Friday night, but was denied at the last moment by the manager guy. In any case, after an eternally long wait, Jewel walks in in a navy sweatshirt and black slacks that Liz says didn't match. She signed stuff and took pictures for the radio people, didn't seem that excited until she saw us, she seemed to perk up. I introduced myself and Jewel signed my poster 'tim, (heart) Jewel', and she commented on how neat the poster was and where did we get them and I said 'Larry Greenfield from L.A. made them, aren't they great' and she says 'they really are.' and then when Liz handed her Jewelstock J-card to Jewel she turns around and says, "Hey everybody, this is the Woodstock bootleg tape." She was really excited to show it to everybody. Liz says 'thank you for the greatest moment in my entire life' (or something like that) and Jewel says, 'Oh you were there?' In a matter of moments she was leaving. I honestly believe she really enjoyed seeing us back there, amidst all the hoopla. then a Jewel promo type guy says we can have anything off the walls we want, so we get the pieces of you promo posters and the new flats with the picture now known as the 'hits' picture on it. So the five of us decide to go eat. This is once again out of control, as we are led under bridges and all over Cleveland and whatnot and cannot find any places open. We decided Dennis Harris had gotten there and convinced all these restaurants to close or something. We find ourselves way on the east side at a diner that has a poster from an event that hasn't happened yet (or at least I never heard of.) : DENNISSTOCK!!! I swear to God it was a big poster of a saxophone and it said dennisstock at the bottom of it. We ate a hardy meal and owed even more than our lives now because Dan picked up the check. I tell you, a great guy. We parted in the parking lot and left. After getting lost in downtown Cleveland, we finally got back to the interstate, Liz got home around 4:15 and I got home around 5:15.

Okay, here's the second night's events at the 9:30 Club. First of all, I came up from Richmond, which isn't too bad of a jaunt, and spent the day in DC. I didn't know if any EDA were meeting for the 2nd shwo , so I wrote on my hand with a black Sharpie "EDA" in hopes of finding some of you , though I didn't :( Around five , I took the Metro and got off on 13th street which wasn't too far from the club. However, given the nature of the area, it seemed like forever as I prayed for my life. Upon arriving at the club, I had to stand in line at the will-call window for my tickets in the chilly weather. During that time, two busses pulled up and backed into the back of the club. You guys don't even know how bad I wanted to run back there, but I refrained. For the first time in forever, I was not covering a show for the music journal here in Richmond and didn't have my photo pass,etc. Talk about feeling helpless. Around 7:30, the doors opened and my friend and I made a mad dash for the front of the stage , which eventually paid off giving us the best view I've ever had at a show. About an hour and severe sore feet later, the Rugburns came out and performed a very energetic set which really pumped the crowd. At the end, Steve fell into this guy at the front of the stage which apparently pleased the guy b/c he was just smiling away. Finally, after the usual set shuffle, Jewel came out appearing very happy in a silver shirt and black pants (for those of you who were interested) and said she was so happy to be back in DC. The set list didn't vary too much from night one's. She did play a new song that she wrote "just last night" and wanted us to help title it. I don't know if anyone is familiar with it . I was having too much fun to remember. She told several stories that most of us are familiar with, "the pot incident" with she and Steve (which in this particular case she said she felt like pretending to be the "white hostage" and that the "federalies" offered to give them all of this pot and she warned Steve, "it's a set up." ), etc. Right before "Nicotine Lover" she told us about how she used to hitchhike in Alaska which worried her boyfriend. He would watch tv specials about serial killers etc. who abducted young women ,etc. which gave him reason to worry about little Jewel and her hitchhiking self. One day she watched one which was about this woman who escaped from this guy who was a rapist. After escaping , she turned psycho and seduced men to kill them. Jewel remarked in a quirky little voice, "It's not an eye for and eye children, yeah right." For all of you who know that story already, I apologize for retelling it and prolonging , but I just thought it was interesting. The other interesting story was about Ike Turner bringing her this cheesy autographed picture. However, I won't elaborate for the sake of saving space. As for audience misbehavior , there was a little bit from the left side of the club. One guy kept yelling , "Jewel" which she took great pleasure in making fun of, flipping him off , the usual for audience idiots. Then there was the girl with the "yappy" voice , as Jewel put it, over at the bar. Jewel asked that everyone near her make her shut up, or kick her teeth in , which she quickly covered by saying "only kidding." She stopped before going into a song and signed two autographs at the front of the stage , saying "now will you shut up?" That same night she did a quick performance over at Constitution Hall with Michael Bolton and some others. She laughed about the forty year old women with "big eighties glasses that faded from light to dark" screaming for him in the front row. Since this was my first Jewel show , I have never seen Lenedra before but I think I spotted her on the balcony above the stage. Help me guys-blonde hair , rather attractive lady? I think it was her. I honestly think Jewel had a good time, and a wonderful performance. I would have loved to taken pictures , since I did have my camera, but I didn't feel like getting busted or blinding Jewel with relentless flashing. Afterward, I did get to talk to Steve and he signed the cd (Rugburns) cover for me. What a sweet guy, though I knew this already from reading these posts. We saw Jewel board her bus, but there were too many people for her to come say "hey." My friend and I hailed a cab to the metro only to find that it wasn't running and feared for our safety . Thankfully, some nice cabbie gave us a bargain rate back to the Union Station parking area. Every bit of stress was worth it though. If anyone can help me out as far as picking up one of Jewel's poetry books for me , I would send you a check or something beforehand. I couldn't afford it last night b/c I needed my 'dinero' to get out of the parking deck. Well, that's that. Sorry for a much detailed report, but I just wanted to do a stellar performance justice:) Did anyone tape the show by any chance? :)Hilary From owner-jewel-news@smoe.org Thu Mar 13 15:56:15 1997 Return-Path: Received: by jane.smoe.org (SMI-8.6/SMI-SVR4) id PAA16517; Thu, 13 Mar 1997 15:56:14 -0500 Message-Id: <199703132056.PAA16517@jane.smoe.org> Date: Thu, 13 Mar 97 10:38:02 EST From: Anand Gajjala To: jewel-news@smoe.org Subject: Jewel News: CONCERT REVIEW/E-MEDIA/URL: Washington Post review of show at 9:30 club Sender: owner-jewel-news@smoe.org Precedence: bulk content-length: 210 A review of Jewel's show appears in today's Washinton Post.

I am writing a review of Jewel's concert for the Teen Page of a local newspaper. I just thought some of you guys might be interested in reading it. I think it will be appearing tomorrow's edition. I really enjoyed the concert, except for her opening act the Rugburns. I felt that the messages contained in the Rugburn's music, were the complete opposite of Jewel's. Obviously, I preferred Jewel's messages. Jewel/Rugburns Tower Theater I was very excited about getting a front row seat to Jewel's concert at the Tower Theater. When I saw her for the first time at Temple University there was a crowd of only about one hundred people. Now, Jewel has won the American Music Award for best new artist, and her album "Pieces of You" has gone triple platinum. This time, the crowd was in the thousands! The Tower Theater stage was adorned by dimly lit candles and huge screens that were filled with lavishly colored pictures and designs that changed from song to song. By the time Jewel came on unexpectedly during the Rugburns opening set, the crowd was totally under her spell. Like her previous performances, Jewel's own set was nothing less than magical. Despite the large crowd, Jewel showed poise under the pressure of so many staring eyes and screaming fans. For most of her songs, Jewel performed alone. Switching between two acoustic guitars, she let her beautiful voice win over the crowd. It was during these songs that the concert was at its best and most intimate. While playing mostly folk songs, her 90 minute set included a wide diversity of musical styles. For several of her songs, she was accompanied by a celloist, who gave her songs and ethereal quality. She was also backed by members of the folk/rock band, the Rugburns, and at one time she played a semi-polka called "The Cold Song." Overall, however, much of her concert was actually filled with tension. A lot of it came from the personal nature of her songs. Ranging from such topics as suicide, victimization, peer pressure, unrequited love, and vengence, Jewel sang from the depthes of her heart. In some of her songs as, "Adrian" and "Nicotine Love", she went from her girlish whisper to crys that seemed to eminate from the core of her soul. There were moments where Jewel seemed to be on the verge of crying, using her voice and guitar to unleash the frustration, anger, and misery bottled inside her. Some of the tension was due to the often impolite and unruly crowd. Although better than her previous concerts, members of the audience would frequently interrupt her songs with screams and shouting. After her first song, when one impetuous fan kept screaming for her to yoddle, she almost got the guy kicked out by security guards. Despite some unruly fans, Jewel was still her sociable and talkative self. she did not hesitate to converse with the crowd and she would often introduce her songs with stories explaining the complex nature and messages behind her lyrics. After her regular set was over, she came back for a quick encore, which was shortened by the club managers who refused to turn the lights down on the crowd. She played a jazzed up version of her hit "Who Will Save Our Souls" and an acoustic version of "Amen." The highlight, however, was her impassioned plea to the crowd for them to follow their dreams and to retaliate against the false stereotypes and insensitivity that plague our society. Jewel's concert at the Tower Theater was a very special evening indeed. She proved once again that she is not only one of today's most charismatic performers, but that she is also a positive role model - who will not sacrifice her integrity for success.

"Sarah McLachlan has lined up a venerable who's who of female talent for her Lilith Fair festival this summer. Each show will have a main stage and a 'coffeehouse' stage, with several acts apiece. McLachlan, whose new album is out in June, will appear on all dates of the 35-city tour, which kicks off July 4, in Vancouver, with the following artists set to appear on a rotating basis: NATALIE MERCHANT, JEWEL, SHERYL CROW, JOAN OSBORNE, SUZANNE VEGA, MARY CHAPIN CARPENTER, EMMYLOU HARRIS, the CARDIGANS, JULIANA HATFIELD, LISA LOEB, AIMEE MANN and NENEH CHERRY. Still considering the offer are SINEAD O'CONNER and SHAWN COLVIN. A percentage of each ticket sale will go to local women's charities." Here's hopeing JEWEL comes to the show in your area, but it sounds like a killer concert no matter what. Jennifer V.

After spending a day in classes, surviving on only 2 hours of sleep, I am finally home!! Last night's concert was my 3rd fav Jewel performance right under JS! It was an AWESOME show!!! The set lists have all been posted so I won't bother repeating them. She sang 24 songs!!! Yippppeeee!!! =) Anyway, here is how it went..... What can I say that hasn't already been said without boring you all to death?? Hmm......I looked pretty suave in my jeans, F*&^ U! I'm Sensitive shirt, black leather jacket, skull & crossbone hightops, straw hat, and a Gold's Gym sweatshirt. Tim and I arrived at the high school where Misty and Mia were already standing outside. I proceeded to purchase the entire merchandise table!!! We went to our seats....even though they were in the back, they were REALLY good. We had a nice center position. I decided that I wanted to try to find Bibi, I dragged Tim along with me...the lobby was cold and I was about to give up when she walked in. I said "Ohmigod, that's Bibi" I was about to chicken out and go back to my seat but Tim stopped me, and we caught her just as she was about to go backstage. I introduced myself again (I met her before but I KNEW that she wouldn't remember me.) We proceeded to talk, I told her that I really liked the tour book that she helped design, and she was like, I don't. I was like you have got to be kidding me!! But we also talked about San Diego and other stuff that none of you would care about. I told her that we should probably get going because I didn't want to miss ANY of the rugburns' set. She really is nice. SO THEN THE RUGBURNS CAME OUT AND I THOUGHT THAT I WAS GOING TO PEE MY PANTS!!!!!!! They were everything that I had expected and more!!! I was dancing around in my seat....for the rugburns I lost my cool EDA-like behavior and was forced to scream out I love you Steve a couple of times. (Don't worry I did it when they were in between songs and not talking or playing) I was REALLY excited!! Ask any of the people that were around me!!!! Then out of nowhere, a shadowy figure emerges near our row, Mia screams out "Dan". I was like who is dan? He proceeded to grab an empty seat in front of us. Ohmigod, is that dan "the man" stark?? what is he doing here? Well, I began to get back into the groove of the burns...and then it was over. =( It really urked me when he called those girls onstage, and they didn't even appreciate it. they just stood up there and didn't even acknowledge the fact that the beautiful being of Steven J. Poltz was standing before them, making a song up about them. They sang alot of my favorites, like Lockjaw, Treehugger, Gold's Gym Guy, and Hitchiker Joe (which he butchered...but it was funny!!) They are such a great band...they look so cute when they are up there all dancing together!! They have such a great chemistry together and you can tell that they are having a great time!! I could go see them a million more times and not get sick of them....maybe I should give it a try!!! ;-) Stinky did spit a couple of times, but not a lot. =( He is a cutie and the crowd really seemed to eat him up!!! There set was over much too quickly....If only I could have been in attendance at their set at Java Joe's that lasted into early in the morn!! When they left the stage I felt this great natural high...it was so wonderful, not that their leaving was wonderful, but that I had finally SEEN my favorite band perform live!! Ok.....go to my next post to see my observations of jewel and other stuff.....

I sat there in awe of the sight that I had just witnessed. A girl behind us inquired about the opening band. I proceeded to proudly tell her their name and the names of their CDs. She seemed interested...I thought....cool!! Then, Jewel came on a little later. She was met with thunderous applause. I could barely hear her voice singing Near You Always. There were some rude people that insisted on yelling "I love you Jewel" WHILE she was singing. Jewel held her own and shut them up!!! Then some dude yelled "Yodel" and she told the crowd it is really rude....blah blah....I should hand out flyers.....blah, blah. After that, the crowd was really quiet while she was singing. She seemed quite happy and commented on how nice it was to have an audience that was quiet. John Hagen, the cellist, was amazing!!! I really liked that addition!! John and Stinky came out and backed her up on few songs.....then steve came out....my heart nearly leaped out of my chest!!!!! They were singing sooooooooooo close, and staring in each other's eyes....it was sooo adorable!!! Steve really does have an incredible voice!! What can I say about Jewel? she was wonderful....I was awestruck...I think Misty was too because she did let out a few blood curdling screams!!!! ;-) I think I was dancing in my seat the whole concert!! The crowd was REALLY into jewel....she got a GREAT standing ovation in my opinion! I really enjoyed the jazzed up verion of WWSYS!! She did say "hands manifest thought" and I started laughing. Then the show ended....and I felt alive awake and enthusiastic!! We went out into the lobby and stood around waiting for any sign of the rugburns. I was standing there talking (when am I not?? ;-)) when out of the corner of my eye I saw this familiar figure. STEVE! I stopped dead, turned and walked straight over to him, my heart was in my throat, I kept my eyes totally focused on him. He wasn't talking to anyone so I introduced myself. He shook my hand. I was spellbound. He commented on my hat and I said, I brought it for you. He was like "really" so I handed it to him and then I gave him a "Gold's Gym" sweatshirt. He thought that was pretty cool. I had a discussion about socks with him. Then I said thank you, I'll talk to you later. Steve Poltz smiled at ME!!! I thought I had died and gone to heaven!!! I was standing there while dan spoke to him, then dan motioned us over to the auditorium. Misty, Mia, Tim, and I followed as we made our way to the backstage entrance. The funny thing is that no one said a word to us. The next thing I knew, I was being wisked into a room with about 15 other people. A cool promo poster and the POY and Hits flats were all hanging on the wall. Jewel came in...it was weird, because it didn't really phase me. I was like hey it's Jewel. I just wish that I had brought my camera in. Oh, well, I already have a pic with Jewel. I didn't really care about getting anything signed. I just wanted the opportunity to thank her. She really did seem to perk up when she saw the EDA poster. Then she saw my JS tapes and showed them to the record dude. She said that they were cool, and said a few other things about them. I felt pretty special especially when I said, thanks for the best time of my life and she was like...."cool, you were there!?" Even though she was only supposed to sign one thing for each person, she grabbed both tapes out of my hand and signed them...I was like hey it is ok by me!! (Misty was holding the other one therefore it didn't get signed, but I am not complaining) Tim and I felt kind of bad that we had ditched the rugburns but we said hey!, we have more concerts coming up!! It was great to see Jewel, but I thought it was kind of sad. Most of the people in there were like, oh jewel, I want an autograph. I really would just like to have a conversation with her. I want the opportunity to sincerely thank her for everything that she has helped me realize. I guess that was one thing great about JS, we could just talk to her and hang out. It was great just the same though!! Then we went in search of something to eat. We went to the Flats in Cleveland, but everything was already closed!! It was midnight for cryin out loud!!! We were tempted to visit Mia's future place employment----Tiffany's- A Gentleman's Club. ;-) Just kidding of course!!!! So we gave up on the flats and headed to Chuck's Diner, opened 24 hours. I had a very good grilled cheese sandwhich (to me anything would have tasted good....it was 1:00 am and I hadn't eaten since a cup of soup at noon) Honest to goodness, there WAS INDEED a poster on the wall that said "Dennis Stock". It was very scary!!! ;-) Dan "my man" Stark is such a cool guy!!! He picked up the tab. =) (not to mention, he got us backstage) Then it was time for Tim and I to head home. He said that we got lost.....no WE DIDN'T....we just took the SCENIC ROUTE!!! =) We pulled into my driveway at 4:15 am, and then tim left. It was an AWESOME concert. Thanks to my friends who made it even better!!! -----Misty, I am telling you, we must be long lost sisters or something!!! =) sorry to bore all of you! I can't wait for the upcoming shows!! Talk to you all really soon!!!! =) your friend and fellow angel, Liz "My thirst for you will never die" ~Steven J.

I will try to adress the following issues, so please just hang in there. I will post answers as soon as I can. Many want to know if they can purchase the poetry/tour booklets and/or t-shirts directly. I'm going to see if something can be worked out about that. I know there are plans for Jewel to appear at selected Lillith Fair dates this summer & I believe some H.O.R.D.E Festival dates are also a possibility. I'll try to find out more. To you European EDAs: The Europe Tour schedule is still unconfirmed, but I'll try to get tentative info on that. I'll also try to get an update on the official newsletter & any info regarding plans to release an EP this summer. So I write this to you all, just to let you know that I am aware of these issues & info will be forthcoming. :-) Hope everyone is enjoying the tour & doing well in general.

I just want to make sure you know that Jewel's is VH1's Artist of the Month for March. { snip } We have some interview clips that are shown throughout the day, AND.... we'll premiere her recent performance for the new series on VH1 called Live at The Hard Rock Cafe on Sunday March 30 at 8:00 PM and 1:00 AM. She taped this concert in NYC last weekend [late February], and I was lucky enough to be there. She was incredible, in rare form. Funny, sweet, sexy, and breautiful.. I've seen her before and she just blows me away. The audience loved her (and treated her with respect, unlike at the Beacon, so I've heard). So I highly recommned this special to all Jewel fans, and I think that anyone who hasn't been turned onto her yet will soon see why her music is so special. Enjoy guys. And thanks for watching VH1."

Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Sender: owner-jewel-news@smoe.org Precedence: bulk content-length: 7862 ______________________________ OK, due to the recent queries about the JewelStock Tapes and JewelStock, it looks like it's time I explain alot for the benefit of the new folks on the list. So, all you veterans can sit back and make noises and funny faces at me while I speak to the new people. (I certainly know Dennis & Amy will ;) I'm Mike and I was the lead organizer of JewelStock (OK....Akira helped a wee bit ;) and I ran the tape tree of the JewelStock tapes. For the unsure, basically a tape tree is an organized method to distribute concert tapes amongst members of this list, where a team of volunteers each agree to make copies for about a dozen fellow list members. First, what was JewelStock?: JewelStock was an event last summer in Woodstock NY, which consisted of two concerts by Jewel. While it was well known she was to begin recording soon, last spring a list member (Duff, aka TJTalken@aol.com) asked Jewel (thru Hiranya) if perhaps she could give a private concert for the list "maybe...huh...puhleeeeese??" At the time, Hiranya was our official contact to Jewel, as she works at Jewel's office. Two weeks before she arrived at Woodstock (Bearsville actually) to start recording for her next CD, she agreed to give such a concert exclusively (and FREE!!!) for the members of this mailing list, as her way of showing her appreciation of our support. Jewel is so sweet :) How can ya not love her? The one stipulation was that the list members had to handle everything (EVERYTHING??!!?? Yikes!!), but luckily Jewel's mother/manager (Lenedra) landed a PERFECT 330-seat venue, and arranged all the logistics regarding the venue and the concert itself, while about six list volunteers handled communication, RSVPs, carpooling, lodging & official JewelStock T-shirts etc. Thanx to Dennis Harris, we even had a spiffy JewelStock web site loaded with all the info anyone really needed to make the journey to Woodstock. Two shows were scheduled, the first one was free and exclusively for list members and one guest each, while the second show had a 15$ cover to benefit the venue and was about 1/3 list members, 2/3 locals. List members came in from all over the country, and I mean all over the country! (A grand total of about 130 list members ended up coming, as about 90 had to cancel the last few days. The list had about 400 total members then) A GREAT part of the experience was meeting and hanging out with everyone for two or three days in WOODSTOCK, the town that is the definition of musical togetherness. Gosh, I could go on and on, but I shan't. OK, what about the Jewelstock Tapes?: Jewel agreed the concerts could be recorded for distribution to all the list members, as she was well aware many would not be able to attend. They both were recorded, and a three tape set was treed in September. There is a 4th tape that cannot be possibly treed until after her next CD comes out, and it's still not a sure thing that we will be able to tree it. We will certainly not know the fate of the 4th tape until after her new CD is released, and the last we officially heard was that would be late fall to early next year. IMPORTANT, PLEASE READ AND UNDERSTAND! The tapes came with rules straight from Jewels' management (Lenedra). I will just spell out the rules and will not get into the reasons for them. 1) It is/was to be a one-time ONLY tree. Once it was treed, we could NEVER tree it again. 2) The tapes are only available in standard audio cassettes. NO DATS, no VHS Hi-Fi. So please don't ask anymore. I don't mean that to sound harsh, but we've had this rule since day one, and we still get DAT requests from folks who were on the list back then. Of course, 'newbies' could not have known. :) 3) ONLY list members could and still can get the tapes. This means you are not to copy them for your mother, sister Bess, a neighbor or anyone unless they are subscribed to the list. These tapes are a gift from JEWEL to the members of this list, please abide by her managements' wishes. (The only exemption to this rule is teenage residents of the White House :) 4) DO NOT make CDs out of the tapes, even for home personal enjoyment. Lenedra has made it perfectlty clear that ALL available LEGAL action will be taken in regards to anyone found to be involved in either the MANUFACTURING or SALE of unauthorized Jewel CDs. (This includes other Jewel material, not just JewelStock) What about a video?: The concerts were videotaped with the intention of treeing that also. However, things change and so did that plan. As of right now, there are no plans to tree the video, and considering the many logistics concerning the video right now, we honestly feel that a possible tree is a LONG way off, perhaps two years or more, if ever. (We were told, they "have another project in mind for the video") How can I get a copy of the Jewelstock tapes?: Like I said, first and foremost, you must be a member of this list via at least one of its' 3 versions. (Jewel, Jewel-digest or Jewel-news) Secondly, you have to ask, but there is a nice way to increase your chances. Keep in mind over 300 list members have copies of the tapes, so it shouldn't be too hard, however, remember patience is a virtue. The following is taken from an Email posted by Sinjin last December. Please note, while his Email is specifically about the JewelStock tapes, his advice serves very well for all tapes and requests of list members: "Hey Party People, Anyone who wants to get a copy of the Jewelstock tapes, read on and I'll tell you how to do so. As you already know, these tapes are meant for distribution to EDA's only (members of this list are EDA's). If you do not have a copy of Jewelstock and you want one, and you should want one because these tapes kick serious donkey, here's what you should do: Spend some time reading the list. Get to know the members, we're pretty much all nice people :) Eventually you'll come across a thread you like or a person who's emails you enjoy and you can converse with them privately and make friends. That's when you move in for the kill! Ask your new EDA friend if he/she/it would make you a copy of the Jewelstock tapes, most of us would be glad to do so for a fellow EDA who has taken interest in the list. The reason I personally will not just dub my copies of Jewelstock to just anyone is because I don't want someone to just pop onto the list for one day, get the tapes and split. However, I am more than willing to copy the tapes for true Jewel fans and EDA's. By following these steps you should soon get your very own copy of Jewelstock without having to beg, plead, cuss, or insult." - Sinjin If you have any questions, please feel free to Email me. However, please don't ask about the 4th Jewelstock tape, the JewelStock video, or the reasons for the rules. They are set and there's nothing that can be done or changed. Your fellow EDA, Mike P.S.

I forgot something. What about a JewelStock II?: One thing we don't need on the list right now is a thread about JewelStock II. In my opinion it's pointless. Lenedra has pretty much said a second one is a ways off, and talk of "Let's have it here" or "Let's have it there" won't accomplish a darn thing, especially since when (or IF) a second one happens, it's very likely we won't have any choice on where or even when it is. They would tell us. For instance, it was quite clear from day one of JewelStock planning last summer that it was going to be in the Woodstock NY area. However for some unknown reason, many early posts were made to the list about having it in San Diego, Austin, Colorado etc, and it got very frustrating as it was announced it would be after a day of recording, so obviously it would have to be in Woodstock or nearby. People were actually nearly arguing about it and really pushing to have it near them. It just added to the confusion. Please, the possibility of a second one, when and where is totally out of our hands, so let's not start posting about it, as it will serve no purpose.

First, giant strides are being made on the Jewel Performance Chronology again. Adam hasn't had a chance to update the online version yet, but it should be updated again soon. Recently, I found all the missing Innerchange dates so fairly soon all of the missing ones will be included. The Chronology still has a few missing dates, but(when updated) will be almost complete from her Interlochen Graduation to present (for actual shows). Also many mistakes & missing dates have been corrected. The master database now contains almost 650 performances/entries. In related news, I've begun corresponding with Atz Kilcher(Jewel's Dad) & I'm hoping he'll be able to help me fill in some info on shows Jewel did in Alaska prior to leaving for Interlochen Arts Academy. So new info on "vintage" performances may be added soon, as well. For those who've yet to check out The Chronology, its always available at: http://home.sprynet.com/sprynet/xenomorph/jchrono.htm Big thanks to all those who've written me with suggestions,corrections & additions! And a major thanks to Adam Longfellow for helping me on this project & including it on his incredible "Pieces Of Jewel" website. Without his efforts, I would be unable to share it with you all. Also, I'd just like to add to Mike's (special jewel-announce) post regarding the Jewelstock Tapes. When I first assembled & remastered these tapes for distribution, I received nothing but exstatic responses from everyone & I was extremely happy about the entire situation. As with all good things, the free "tree" distribution ended. Since then, I've received nasty emails, threatening phone calls & other miscellaneous problems. These primarily came from people that were not on the list at that time & felt that I personally owed them these tapes. It was very disconcerting & it caused me much frustration. I share this with you because I want new people to understand that we never discouraged the hundreds of "leafs" from making free copies of these tapes for new list members. We encouraged it (and still do), as a matter of fact. I understand that getting Jewelstock Tapes is slightly more difficult now, but its easily accomplished by making friends with another EDA & politely asking for them to make you copies. The "rules" regarding these tapes were NOT put in effect to alienate anyone. They were done in an effort to keep these tapes safe from unscrupulous hands in order so that we can do these wonderful free distributions again. The more cynical amongst us, think these "rules" are senseless & nothing more than impossible requests. I REALLY would like to believe that EDAs can be the exception to the rest of the Internet, & that by respecting the wishes regarding these tapes, we'll be able to continue this wonderful tradition. Jewelstock & the subsequent distribution of these tapes was an incredible experience & as Chopped Liver Charlie so eloquently put it: " They are unique in the music business and we have a responsibility to protect the spirit in which Jewel gave them to us."

What are Rare and Radio Angels? They are tapes made shortly after the release of _Pieces of You_ to make available some of Jewel's best limited edition recordings and radio appearances, including, respectively, the material from _Save The Linoleum_ & _Shiva Diva Do Wop_ and from _Phyllis Barnabee_ & Acoustic Cafe. These tapes were available for nearly a year to anyone who asked. However, since the list has grown so large it became impractical for the original group of people involved in the tape to continue to make them continually available, and we stopped making copies last year. So why am I mentioning this information? Because I'm sure that there are people on the list willing to make copies of either or both Rare Angels and Radio Angels, and I wanted to let anyone who is making copies of the tapes know that I still have j-cards printed up for both tapes and am willing to send copies to anyone who wants them. PLEASE NOTE THAT I AM NOT WILLING TO SEND OUT ANY MORE COPIES OF THE TAPES THEMSELVES, JUST THE LINERS. I personally spun hundreds of these and due to other commitments cannot afford the time or effort to make any more. Do send me an email, including your mailing address and the number of copies you'd like, if you're making copies of these tapes and want the J-cards. BTW, the same restrictions apply to these tapes as to the Jewelstock tapes. The tapes are only available on standard audio cassettes. You may dub copies of them for other fans but they are not to be recorded onto cd, even for your own use, nor are you welcome to sell them to anyone in any manner. They were made by fans for fans, and not for profit. --Neile P.S. Greetings to those of you who remember me from the beginnings of this list.

Allan Staff Writer for The Indianapolis Star "A Diamond In The Rough" Jewel's so many women - lover, fighter, frightened, schoolgirl poet, business person. All of them (but mostly the schoolgirl poet) came out Friday night at the Murat Theatre during her 90-minute performance. Self-assured beyond her years, Jewel, 22, obviously has captured the imagination of teen-age girls, who comprised a sizeable portion of the 2500 screaming fans. Their adulation appears to be warranted, though perhaps for sometime down the road. Jewel's voice is an enticing and wonderful instrument that she uses to growl and coo. And she's charming - even a pitch asking the audience to call radio stations to request her next single, "Foolish Games", sounded sweet. But her guitar work is rudimentary and often sounds like she's playing variations of either Neil Young's "The Needle and the Damage Done" or Joan Baez's "Diamonds and Rust". And her lyrics - an essential part of the equation, since she sings with minimal accompaniment - need work. At her best, Jewel is waiting for her Marlon Brando to come crashing through the gates. Or she's apologetic: "I'm sorry Jesus died for my sins/and I swear to God it won't happen again." Mostly, though, just when you think you might be watching the next Joni Mitchell, Jewel breaks just like a little girl. "I could face the world fearlessly/if you would face it here with me," she sang. And, "When you look in my eyes/please note my heart is in your hands." Yet her innocence also serves as a charm. She played maybe six songs (actually 11) songs from her debut disc, PIECES OF YOU, including "Morning Song" and "You Were Meant For Me". The remaining tunes were unrecorded or unreleased, and she introduced them by saying things like, "I don't know how good it is, but it's new" and "I've never sung this song in front of people." An out-of tune guitar made her cry "ouch!" But the summation of the show came when she sang the line "My heart is filled with growing pains." So's her show.

There's a picture of Jewel at the Grammy's in the April 17th issue of Rolling Stone ( with Beck on the cover ). It's on page 22. Jewel is standing in between Scott Weiland from Stone Temple Pilots and Steve Winwood. The caption says : " Strange crew: Scott Weiland, Jewel, her dress and Steve Winwood". You can see her entire dress, and it doesn't look immodest ( but we all know the truth ;) ). That's all :) Rachel :) There was Jewel's explanation for her see-through dress: ''Sometimes I don't know when to feel fear. Tomorrow I'll be going, 'What was I thinking?'' "What was I thinking ? What was I, blind ? When I bought this outfit I must have been temporarily out of my mind What was I thinking ? Look at this dress ! I'm taking up drinking - My life is a mess.

(30), 8-9 p.m., VH1) By Phil Gallo HOLLYWOOD (Variety) - The new performance series from Robert Small, creator of Unplugged for MTV, begins with an engaging hour from million-selling pop-folkie Jewel. The show has all the textures of Unplugged-- more chatting than usual, nonstop camera action of pans, zooms and dolly shots that resolve in closeups -- and adds some black-and-white backstage footage. Appeal will depend solely on the artists. Jewel, the 21-year-old Alaska-to-San Diego transplant who began performing with her parents just out of the toddler stage, wisely uses her show to perform four songs that don't appear on her triple-platinum Atlantic debut Pieces of You. While her 10-song set confirms her young, gifted and beach-bum image -- her social, personal and spiritual reflections all connect to the oceanfront life and traveling to and from surfing sites -- she adds to her vagabond charm by yodeling with dad and dueting a cappella with mom on Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer. She's in good voice throughout -- performances of the hits Who Will Save Your Soul and You Were Meant for Me are full of spark -- and the camera clearly loves the doll-faced singer. Backstage chitchat with Paula Cole seems forced; onstage comments capture the giddiness of a youngster freshly acquainted with the prizes of fame. Hard Rock Live, part of the MTV networks' newly re-emphasized music programming, has a varied lineup of double bills over the next half-dozen Sundays, among the performers are Simply Red, Shawn Colvin, Robert Palmer, Lou Reed, John Hiatt and the Lemonheads, each of whom should be able to deliver more the type of commentary or reflection that could make this program stand out. In the first segment, Hard Rock Cafe plugs love letters from Sid Vicious, Freddie Mercury and jazz man Charlie Parker on display at various restaurants. Performer: Jewel. Taped in New York by Robert Small Entertainment, VH1, Hard Rock Cafe, Pontiac and Warner Bros. Pay TV, Cable & Network Features. Executive producers, Robert Small, Jim Berk, Eric Frankel; producer, Karen Ferlito; co-producer, John Schreiber; director, Linda Kahle; production and lighting designer, David Goodman; editor, Sean Fullan. no sound credit.

HARD ROCK will give a little insight into the performers." Each edition features a rock-and-roll performance taped in New York, as well as backstage footage. Grammy-nominee JEWEL launches the series with an acoustic set that includes YOU WERE MEANT FOR ME, FOOLISH GAMES, A THOUSAND MILES AWAY, and WHO WILL SAVE YOUR SOUL.

Reprinted from NEW TIMES/LOS ANGELES 3/27-4/2/97 page 52 --------------------------------------- J E W E L -------------- Her life reads like a 40's musical: born in Alaska, where her dad taught her to yodel; attended the Interlochen Arts Academy until she was told to sing opera instead of the blues; moved to San Diego, where she lived in her VW and wowed slurping surfers at a coffee- house called the Innerchange. No wonder she was asked to portray Dorothy in a stage production of THE WIZARD OF OZ last year. JEWEL is the perfect heroine for teenage girls, who admire her poetry, and their boyfriends, who love her voice but can't stop staring at her chest. Her debut, PIECES OF YOU, sounds like a blue-eyed version of Michelle Shocked and Tracy Chapman, with the occassional nod to Joni. Two years after its release, it continues to sell, thanks to her smooth soprano and increasingly glam persona. She's no longer a dressed-down folk singer, poking fun at people who pay for bottled water; now she's a pop star dressed in a take-a-good-look-at-these-nipples gown. Recorded when she was just 19, PIECES OF YOU is a strange hybrid of high studio gloss and crude concert performances. Her voice is effortlessly beautiful when she sticks to vague spirituality ("WHO WILL SAVE YOUR SOUL") and PG romance ("YOU WERE MEANT FOR ME"). She betrays her age more when she strains to be topical or overly poetic. The title track is a well-meaning condemnation of bigotry, but it carries the easy indignation of a flared-nostil teen. And "PAINTERS" is nearly seven minutes of bottled Art, Love, and Loss. She's far more convincing when she sings "So please be careful with me, I'm sensitive/And I'd like to stay that way." I doubt she can still sing those line with a straight face, and it's up to you whether you cheer or mourn her loss of innocence.
