Anyways, I actually attended this show and met Jewel on her tour bus outside after the show (which was AWESOME). I have a copy of her performance. The recording is of high quality, because I got it from the radio station (WBCN) that recorded it for the Westwood-One Radio Network. I'm willing to trade this for any other bootlegs out there. Kyle PS- Carol Audette is my mom. I'm surfing for FREE off her account until I get back to school (Elmira College)! :) ------------------------------ From: CornflkGl@aol.com Date: Sun, 14 Jul 1996 14:35:58 -0400 Subject: Guestbook $ & orders &change of address for 3 days Okay, everybody, I'm gonna say that I'll need $5 per guestbook if you want one. If $5 isn't enough, I'll just pay outta my pocket, and if it's too much, I'll use the extra to add some fancy schmancy touches to the copies I make. You will be able to sign up for and pay for the guestbook at JewelStock ON THURSDAY through me. On friday night, you can still sign the book and sign up to get a copy, but I won't be there to collect the money. I'll leave my address so the mail can get the $5 to me... If you're NOT GOING to JewelStock but want one anyway, please mail me an "order" containing your home address. I'll send you back my address so I can get the $ before you get the book :). In other Rachel news, a very unfortunate turn of events in my life has caused me to, with parental permission, run away to Boston till Wednesday. If ANYBODY needs to reach me, you can get me at 8436jfill@umbsky.cc.umb.edu. Not that anybody will need to reach me, but. Sign me up for the JewelStock love connection, I guess. I've got nothing better to do that night.

Check the digest archive if you want. but i do remember somebody pulling that stunt. or maybe it was on the Sarah M. list. Why do people write "kewl" instead of "cool?" It doesn't make sense to me. Happy Birthday in two days to Dan Stark. Hey Dan, you want more info on the WXPN thing this coming weekend? I'll be going home to Maryland on Friday after the Thursday show. The Singer/songwriter weekend occurs on Saturday and Sunday the 20th and 21st.

You got to meet Jewel on the bus there? Hey rest of the Boston area Angels, what they hell were we doing hanging around inside the club? We shoulda grouped with Kyle! It's all Dennis' falt, ain't it. And I do believe that we are going to tree the WBCN broadcast after Jewelstock and the California show and the Irving Plaza show. Maybe, I dunno. Do you have a straight from the master copy?

Nhah-nhah-nhah-nhah-nhah-nhah!!! Okay, how about: 1) Much of my experience with public education required I write repetitious copy, (ie, I WILL NOT blah-blah, I WILL NOT blah-blah, I WILL NOT blah-blah...) sometimes hundreds, and even THOUSANDS of times on blackboards. Fault my teachers for my style, not me. 2) I've already told you I have an Apple Macintosh PowerBook. That's right, mister man, mister "You Better Not Mess With Me Anymore, Dennis" Connell, mister "sic my frisbee goons on ya", mister (you get the picture), the kind used in BOTH "Mission Impossible" AND "Independence Day 4". If Jeff Goldblum can destroy an alien mothership and armada with his and save the world and everything, what do you think I could do with mine? Huh? Huh? Well, plenty, I tell ya. And Sinjin doesn't scare me either, cause I've got the Harris Family (that's me, Deanerino and newly adopted Andy "Harris" Levstein, whom everyone will now please quit calling a list-nazi!). And Mike, leave your "FLINGON' KLINGON" model frisbee at home, or I swear it'll end up stuck on top of a BARN somewhere! Mike later realized: >Damn...I just realized that to break that record, someone just has to reply to the message and it's shattered, gone for eternity...history< Yeah, well I did it MY way. The "reply" solution is for wimps. And only a wimp would have thought of that, mister use-your-own-line-here! (Notice the re-occurring obscure Alanis M. reference here?) BTW, no more ridiculous long "subject line" posts! Ever! (I guess the record remains with me, for the infamous SPAM SPAM SPAM... post, huh Mike?) ** List Administrator Jeff W. later said we bounced e-mail around on Angels with the silly posts. Sorry Jeff. I'm also in the Boston area, so I now go on record as owing you a Guinness (or whatever brew you prefer). I would never have done the post if Mike hadn't practically ordered me to, you know. I hope the confusion you experienced wasn't too bad, I've been there before and I know it isn't pleasant, to say the least. *we're sorry* Someone wrote: >My sleep will be endlessly interrupted by perplexing dreams of frisbees, and vollyballs, and the Harris brothers, and the second gunman on the grassy knoll.< What disturbing imagery.

A terrible thing has happened to this newbie. I called Delta yesterday to reconfirm my tickets and discovered that their computer had evidently... sob... lost my reservation... Is this not the most horrible event ever? I am quite depressed. I tried to get them to simply redo the ticket but they replied (rather pissedly) that they could not, and that I would have to pay the normal price for a round trip fare (around $1000!). In response to this, I will never fly Delta again, but that's beside the point. I realize that quite a few list members are not going and that I am nothing special, but I had to post this. I would still very much like to get a copy of the tape (video and audio would be great) and a t-shirt as well as a guestbook, but I'll worry about that after the concerts. Also, is anyone going to be taking pictures of everybody? I think it would be nifty for everyone to have a reminder of the show (even those who could not attend). So, I'll let you all get back to your planning...

I think she was playing on Aug 23 & 24 there. Neil has the 23rd off, and will be on the HORDE tour on the 24th, w/o Jewel. So that can't be it. Though I AM curious as to why she did cancel... Oh, and there are more than three words that end in "gry" in the English language. We just had the Q on the RUST list, and someone did a computer search and found several dozen...but the third word you're looking for is "aggry", isn't it?

DON'T write "For a good time call Skinny Pete at..." in the Guestbook. DO wear nametags with your e-mail address on them. DON'T wear nametags with your favorite Muppet's name on them. DON'T get in the way of people's view. DO get in the way of flying saucer shaped objects. That was my last frisbee joke, honest. DO bitch about the ozone layer, spread of HIV, cost of gas, the republican party, the democratic party, racism, sexual harassment, violence in the media, and the OJ Simpson verdict. DON'T bitch about the cost of the second show. DO hold up a sign that says "Mike Connell for President" DON'T hold up a sign that says "Geez, I just realized that I can just keep typing in the subject box here....this is neat!!!! I think I'll set a record for the longest "subject" in the (so far) history of the Jewel mailing list. Jeff Wasilko!!! What's the record???? Ah, what's the diff anyway?

Yaeh AM records. Also found used Ani DeFranco double Yeah! Anyways it is a great album, I'm bringing it to the show and hopefully while Jewel is being politly mobbed by all the Angels I can get her to sign the cover. Not to restart an old argument about artists, but Patty is, from the two pictures in the CD booklet, incredibly beautiful. Not only will there be a amazingly beautiful blonde but also a stunning brunette (my personal fav.) Just goes to show, like in the song, if you are beautiful on the inside it will all shine through at the rest of the world will see. Can't wait to meet and hug u'all, I'm already getting emotional, I'll be broke but atleast I will be among good friends and enveloped by music. I can already tell that I will writting bocu poetry this week, about meeting new friends, listening to Jewel, see her perform, meeting her? (would love to share some good African coffee with her, but I would probably get real shy and real red in the face and just hold Fuzzy out and say hug me real quiet), maybe I can have coffee with Patty (btw listening to the cd now and great song #3 Every Little Bit), well here's to seeing everyone at the show, maybe I'll make a pilgramage to San Diego to see the rest of the Angels on the way at there and to visit the site where Interchange used to be, just thank God it didn't get replaced by a chain coffee house like Starbucks (crappy store). ooh this is too long I'm just so excited much love to you all out there, extra to the ones who won't be at the show Robb and Fuzzy the purple bear w/ 12' Godzilla & Thun-dar the little Kitty [aka Tricky] Chia Pets are only sold in December -- its a fact ------------------------------ End of jewel-digest V1 #357 ***************************
