F@#$ - I'm the unluckiest bastard!!(njc) Hi/Bye Re: "react" article: July 22-28, 1996 Re: tapes (was Re: A Letter from Lenedra) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- From: Eric Montas Date: Mon, 22 Jul 1996 22:49:36 +0000 Subject: "react" article: July 22-28, 1996 i found this article today in the NJ Star Ledger's "react" news magazine. it's an insert magazine for teens that's in the paper every monday. i believe it's a Parade-type magazine that can be found in most papers. the cover has big close-up of jewel's face with "Folk Rocker Jewel Is A Free Spirit" under her chin. Multifaceted by Joan Tarshis Singer-songwriter-guitarist Jewel talk about her not-so-ordinary life She grew up in places as diverse as a farm in Alaska with no indoor plumbing and in a van parked "wherever the surt was good" in San Diego. She says the soul is stifled and suffocated when unable to follow its dream. She is Jewel (Kilcher), 21, the singer-songwriter-poet-philosopher whose folky acoustic music - showcased in her first album, "Pieces of You" - combines 1960s introspection with 1990s style. And that's a good description of Jewel, too. Today, she arrives late, breathless and flushed from the midday Los Angeles heat. She has in tow her boyfriend, Michel, a male model she met at a fashion show. She looks more like a down-home gal ready for chores than a rock star at an interview. But Jewel is, first and foremost, an artist. "One of my favorite things to do is sit and watch people," she says. "I make up their lives to be tragic or boring or brilliant." Jewel's own life has been a combination of these things. She and her two brothers grew up on an 800-acre homestead in rural Homer, Alaska, rasied by singer-songwriter parents. Jewel began singing - yodeling, actually - when she was 6y, joining her parents onstage at gigs. After her parents split and her mother moved away two years later, Jewel began writing, too, to help herself get in touch with feelings she could not articulate. "It got to the point where if I had a problem with my father, I could never speak it," she says, gently touching her friend's arm as if to make sure of his presence. "I would write four pages and give it to him." But it took Jewel a long time to be able to, as she puts it, "speak from the heart." At 14, she was befirended by a Native American family, who, she says, "took me out to a meadow and said, 'Your life in the future will call for you to speak honestly to people. You don't know how to speak from you heart, and you need to learn how.' I remember going on top of a mountain and trying to say anything honest - just to the wind. I was crying because I couldn't say anything sincere." Meanwhile, jewel spent summers and holidays with her mother, Nedra, who had moved to San Diego and was working part time teaching nutrition and self-improvement at a spa. It was Nedra who helped develop Jewel's thoughtful side. "She's always urged me to know myself and to be brave and to listen to myself," Jewel explains. "She'd urge me to spend five days alone in a cabin without anyone coming by, without any TV. I thought I'd go insane. And she'd have me do juice fasts and things like that." All these experiences came together dring Jewel's last two years of high school, when she was offered a vocal scholarship to Michigan's Interlochen Fine Arts Academy. There, she began learning guitar, keeping a journal and writing songs. "My two yers there were like a turning point," she says. But the biggest turning point came after graduation. Loving the warm weather and the surf, Jewel moved in with her mother in California but had no idea what to do with her life. She took a waitressing job but couldn't stand being chained to a regular schedule. "I was scared. I was 18, and I thought I would have to give up everything I believed in and everything I wanted to do. I just hated life. I cried every day. It was so frustrating. "I finally got fired, and my mom said, 'This is ridiculous. We're going to live in our cars, and we're going to do what we love or die.'" They did just that. Jewel slept in her van, survived on carrots and peanut butter, and played in local coffeehouses. Word of her talent reached Los Angeles, and it wasn't long before Jewel signed a record deal. It's a very lucky ending, especially for someone who, as she says, basically dropped out of the world." "Everything I've ever learned - good and bad - has given immeasurably to what I'm doign now," she says. "I believe I've been guided and helped, and it's very humbling. I think if you demand, 'This is how I want my life to become,' it will. Miracles do happen." there's a picture of Jewel with big blue, but she's not smiling. actually, she looks rather tired. if this was taken in the same time frame after the HFStival and the Java Joe's shows, then that could explain it. under the picture there's a caption reading: to write: Jewel, P.O.

I agree with Sabra--it does seem like the list is starting to divide. I feel left out and alone. I don't have any memories of sharing what sounds like a near-religious experience. All the "haves" can reflect on the fun they had, the songs they heard, and the smell they produced. Us "have nots" only have top ten lists. To add to Steve's top ten list, I give you the top ten things the "haves" wish they were doing this past weekend: 10) Worked on Thursday. 9) Drank beer, ate Chinese and watched Usual Suspects, Clerks, and Heat. 8) Had my boss give me a Civil War game that he wants me to learn so I can teach him how to play (I love my job!). 7) Got a bunch of home-cooked food from my parents. 6) Watched the Opening Ceremonies while playing NTN trivia and drinking beer. 5) Went dancing at Gotham. 4) Running into my ex at Gotham. 3) Finished my Depression Tape. 2) Saw Courage Under Fire (WONDERFUL!!). And, 1) Deposited $1350 into my checking account. The reason I couldn't go to JS was money, and yet I just deposited that big paycheck. Well, when you have over $6000 in credit card debt, you realize you have to be responsible. I must admit my Depression Tape is pretty damn good. Those who are interested in a tape that makes you feel even more miserable about the bitch/bastard you once loved, I'm more than willing to trade for a Jewel bootleg. I like Tom's Race Car Driver shirt idea. Be honest with me, will I ever get to see Jewel in a relatively small venue? Jewel will be playing at Walnut Creek Amphitheater with Neil Young, but I don't want to see Neil Young, and I don't want to see Jewel in such a large venue. OK, enough for now. Let me sign off by saying I'm extremely jealous.

ED!!!!! Last time you signed your name >"Ed (frustrated until Jon Reade's girlfriend returns from >England) Hodgin" and don't think I didn't notice. I have also noticed that I've been getting messages on my machine from some guy named Ed looking for my girlfriend. Is that why she's been acting so secretive? Maybe she isn't in England at all.......Ed, where do you live? I think we need to talk. AND, since everyone has chipped in their two cents about their brief interactions with Jewel I'll chuck mine in too. I did get to talk to her after the show, but that wasn't the first time I saw her. As some of you may remember, Jewel was standing in the back of the venue at the end of Patti's set. I had gotten up to go smoke a cigarette (suprisingly few smokers at JS) in the bar and as I walked back in, I bumped right into somebody. I said "Excuse me" and then realized it was her. She looked mildly embarrassed and as I searched my mind for something pithy to say, she walked on by. Ahhh, the memories.......... Okay, I am going to go be sick now.

I think most of us can recognize humour when we hear it (e-mail without appropriate smilies is another story, but anyway). But really, there is no reason why we *can't* make it an annual event. I'm sure for a lot of us Jewel's show was just an excuse to congregate with a lot of other Everyday Angels. Certainly I would not have travelled that huge distance to attend a regular show that I happened to have a free ticket to. The thing that enticed me to travel for 16+ hours was the prospect of meeting people like the Harris Brothers, the all-star organizing crew, the Sinjins, Piglets & Fuzzies, the James Brothers (too bad only Mr. Judd showed up... where were you, Mr. McGarry, Mr. Reach???), the Bershaws, the Dunns, the Crunches, the Call Girls :-), the Accident Boys, Roman Goddesses, SilverKats, and all the rest of all you great Everyday Angels. *That's* what made the difference. I mean, it was really cool to have witnessed such amazing concerts, but what's stopping us from having our own Everyday Angels congregations without Jewel? It happens on other lists all the time! Next time, we can even have screenings of rare Jewel videotapes, playings of rare Jewel shows, and so on. Whatever. To borrow a phrase from my compatriot Anne (of Green Gables), there are a lot of "kindred spirits" among us Everyday Angels, and I think we have enough reasons to congregate even without Jewel present! Steve ------------------------------ From: Dean Date: Mon, 22 Jul 96 13:47:05 EST Subject: A Harris Brother Version of Jewelstock Well, for those of you who care, here's my version of Jewelstock. For me it all started around 6:30p Wednesday. That's when I packed my car and headed to Dayton to meet Allison. I'd never met her before and she was going to drive me across three states to Bearsville. I arrived at her house around 7:30. Lo and behold she had the Rosie show taped so I got to see Jewel. Great. We killed some time and then headed over to Columbus to pick up Greg, our third party for the trek. We didn't know him either. So here's three strangers on a three day journey to Jewelstock. We drove from columbus to Kingston over night with the various bathroom, gas, and eating breaks in between. Of course we listened to a bunch of Jewel with random things thrown in between. We arrived at Kingston at about 9:00 or thereabouts. Locating the Days Inn we checked in and sort of sat there in a sleep deprivation, been on the road too long kind of stuper for a few minutes. We then had our breakfast at the Days Inn Diner. You know the kinda place. Decent food, on poor lady waiting on all the tables. Three tables full of bratty junior high kids making it even harder on the overworked waitress. Anyway, we ate. We went back to the hotel and realized we needed a store. We don't see one. I see a handy man working on the hotel. Still don't know what he was doing. He had a hammer and a bucket of rusty nails. Either he was hammering the rusty nails into the siding or he was removing them. I was afraid to ask. Anyway. I asked him were there was a store. He gave me a "what the hell do I look like, a freakin map" look. He finally pointed to Kingston and said "Kingston is over there." He then pointed in the opposite direction (in the Bearsville direction) and said "Don't go that way, it's far." I said thanks and got away before I ended up with a rusty nail in my eye. I ended up giving this guy the nickname "Psycho Nail Guy". He had a friend we called "Pipe Smoking Bob", but we never conversed with him. We opted for the Kingston route because we didn't want to "go far". We finally found a store (turned out the other way was closer). I went in to purchase some razors so I could be clean shaven for my meeting with the EDAs. I found the isle that would contain these things, but some hispanic guy was leaning on the shelves in the isle, blocking my way. I sayed excuse me. He looked at me like I was stupid. Getting in a Sinjin pose I prepared to block his "knive" throwing arm. (I didn't think he would use a frisbee.) However he did move on my second, more throaty "excuse me". So I made my purchase without any bloodshed. Jewelstock is still unmarred. We went back to the hotel and took a nice 45 to 60 minute nap. Not near enough. Then we showered and headed to the Bearsville Theatre. BTW: If there's ever an even in Bearsville again, don't stay in Kingston. It's not exactly next door. We pulled into the Bearsville Theatre and parked. The first thing we did was go buy our Jewelstock shirts and put them in the car. All three of us being somewhat shy, we just stood there looking around at the people and attempting to determine which on was which. Akira (aka Rich) was easy to place. From there we kinda had trouble. Eventually even shy people must sit down, so we headed over to the fountain thing and sat down. Somewhere along the line Allison made the announcement that I was one of the "Harris Brothers". I immediately felt the love surrounding me as people's eys lit up and several shook my hand. Here I met Selena and her husband, Robb and Fuzzy, Rachel and her friend (sorry forgot your name). Another Greg who played the guitar. Some others who I can't recall. Eventually Greg & I made Crunch mad by refusing his crunch bars. Sorry Crunch, we just aren't big chocolate nuts. Now that you've met us you know that I'm the Harris Brother that is kinda shy. You also must know why mother would never touch Dennis. (Just kidding!) Dennis is a great guy as many of you learned. Well, we sat there for a while listening to Greg and a couple others whose names elude me now play their guitars. Pretty good guys! Dennis showed up, grabbed me and gave me a bunch of Harris buttons which I eventually gave them all away. Well, we got hungry and went over and ate at the Bears Cafe. Nice place. We came back to wait in line with everone else. While there someone snuck up on me and said "can you drink beer here?" I said sure, others were earlier. The guy goes back to his car and brings a six pack of Guiness and a six pack of Killians back. He even offered Allison, Greg and myself one. What a guy. It's not everday a complete stranger overs you a Guiness that is about 100 degrees in temperature. He ran out of ice and it was sitting on the firewall of his jeep. MMMMM.... We learned that his name was Jay and he was in the Navy. JAY! WHERE ARE YOU???? We missed you Friday. E-mail me. Well, We waited in line and entertained ourselves with Monty Python quotes during the slight delay. God. This is getting to long. I'll shorten it from here. We went in and basically so the most intense, personal, intimate and beautiful show I've ever seen. Patty was great and I plan to see more of her. Jewel was spectacular and I doubt my first Jewel show can ever be exceeded. Lenedra was fantastic and I want to know if there's any recordings of her. Of course after the show I stuck around and got Jewel & Lenedra to sign my PoY cd. I got Patty to sign hers. (Anyone else notice how soft spoken Patty is?) At this point I was on my 40th hour of being awake with the` exception of a one hour nap. I felt like I looked like shit (maybe I always do) so I didn't unpack my camera and get a picture of me with Jewel. I could kick myself. Anyone get a picture of her signing my CD???? We went back to the Hotel and pretty much crashed after that. Allison and Greg. Sorry 'bout the snoring. Hope it didn't ruin your sleep. :) And Greg. Allison says you snore too. We woke up Friday about 11:00 or so. Sat around the room discussing the previous day and how good we felt after the sleep. We watched the rain (and the TV). Eventually we went into the Kingston Friendly's and ate lunch. We bummed around the hotel most of the day not knowing what to do and where to do it. We went in for the second show about 7:30. We had a nice conversation with Mike C. and Dan Stark and went to our seats. At the seats we met Angelica. Very nice, lovely girl. (Still love what you wrote in the guestbook.) This show was almost as good as Thursday, but not quite. The locals seemed to be a little on the roudy side, but I guess they could have been worse. I also had Angelica's "looser guest" in front of me. ("Looser guest" is her words, not mine.) He was kinda big so he blocked alot of my pictures. Angelica, if you want several pictures of the back of your guests head, let me know. :) One of the local girls asked me "Do you guys follow Jewel around?" I almost lied and said yes. We have this group of people that call themselves Jewelheads and follow her from town to town selling hot dogs, shirts, hats and Harris Brother buttons at each venue, but decided against it and just laughed at her. Anyway, this is way to long and I have work to do, so I'll stop for now. Needless to say this was one of the greatest, no the greatest event of my life. I still can't get over just how well a bunch of people who are basically complete strangers got along so well together. I'm actually beggining to miss some of you. Hopefully we can all keep in touch and maybe show up at some Jewel shows together. Sorry about the length, but I'm still on some sort of Jewelstock high. Who needs drugs when we have Jewel.

I only did one thing: 1) thought I had come down with appendicitis Actually I felt more worry than pain, but the pain was in the right spot. And the doctor said that if it was appendicitis I would hardly be able to move because of all the pain. I'm just glad I was stuck at home after all, and not in Bearsville when this hit. Sometimes bad luck turns into good (and sometimes it just doesn't matter anyway). And in a way, thinking about what was going on at Jewelstock (and anticipation of those recordings!) helped me get my mind off it a little bit. So now I can count myself among those whom Jewel has helped through a crisis, even though it turned out not to be a crisis after all. p.s. I also watched the entire Olympic opening ceremonies too, which I wouldn't have missed for going to Jewelstock anyway, but would probably not have watched if I wasn't laid up (boy that phrase sounds bad). ------------------------------ From: teffta@erie.ge.com Date: Mon, 22 Jul 1996 10:19:09 -0400 (EDT) Subject: Re: New info on Frisbee attack > After reviewing tapes and interviewing all witnesses to the frisbee > attack on Jewel that caused her to walk off stage halfway through > "Pieces of You" I have come to the conclusion that this vile act was not > the work of a lone gunman, but it was a conspiracy! > Witnesses reported that the frisbee hit Jewel in the guitar and the > head.

The > laws of pysics prove this impossible. Well, actually it could have bounced up off the guitar and hit her in the head. But the forensic reports are unable to tell us the direction of impact. However, further evidence of the conspiracy is the clip shown on mtv. It clearly shows her only getting hit once. If you view this frame-by-frame you can detect the editing out of the second hit. Quite a professional job, if you don't look closely you can't tell (watch the bug flying behind her just before the impact). Somebody does not want us to know the truth.

Speaking as an unfortunate who could have been at jewelstock if it were just one week later (gotta get in that sympathy plug there), I would prefer to get the non-band stuff now, and the band stuff when it is available, either as a separate tape or a re-tape. Similarly, if this is an option for the video (as someone mentioned), I would be happy to get a non-hifi video tape now, and then when it is possible to distribute a hi-fi version, tape over it. I don't think any of us particularly want to wait until February without ANY recording of this. And for those of us who weren't there, something is better than nothing (the photos and descriptions just make us jealous!). ------------------------------ From: kjohnso7@ix.netcom.com (Katherine E.

Today I went to a summer job interview at a little coffee job where a month before my band and I had played. I meet the manager and the first thing he says is " another one of you , I hope you got a great resume cause a normal teenager ain't gonna land this job". I was thinking to myself , geez , yeah sir I got the greatest resume , I've worked with Bill Gates and I was actually the guy who designed DOS. You know I'm applying for a shitty job as a waiter and getting a little less than the minimum wage , and this fat bastard is giving me shit. I spoke my mind , and consequently didn't get the job. This all happened at about 9:30am , then I return home rather pissed to see my brother greeting me with my future car all banged up and crashed. He had gotten into a car accident and the car was a total loss. Greeat!!! My ex girlfriend calls me up , I hadn't talked to her since we broke up ( you remember a couple months back when I was depressed) and starts telling me I'm a very inconsiderate person , just because I said I didn't wanna go out with a girl they tried to set me up with for a date. I hated that girl , I wouldn't go out with her on a date because she hates me and I hate her.
