I remember buying everyone of those as they came out. And when they didn't release one every six months I was really disappointed. But, there has never been a band like the Beatles, before or since. I agree, it would be sad to sea people move on to another artist for lack of new material. But, to put it in perspective, some of us have been listening to her for years while the general public is just getting to know her. Atlantic sees this and is probably counting the AMA's and the Grammy's to bring in even more fans. Oh, well. Who's life is it anyway?

Think about it YWMFM is going strong. POY has sold about a million and a quater copies over the past year.(Februrary to Februrary) and Atlantic doesn't care about us because CDs are a bussiness that makes their money in volume. In other words with 40,000 albums selling per week and foolish games still to come acording to their guess she could be good for another million. Lenedra and Jewel have little to say about this. It's Atlantic's money. Jewel's relationship with this list. This list's relationships with each other aren't about money. But a career is. 1,000 die hards don't mean shit to Atlantic, but we mean a hell of a lot to Jewel because she understands everyone of our feelings. she feels the same way about her favorite artists. She's delighted that she gets the support to continue living a dream come true of a life. We are her favorite sample of the fans that make that possible. She just might be thinking about and hoping that she doesn't loose the support of the people who waited patiently for the new album. But alas it's quantity not quality that matters. Does anybody remember the old Brooklyn Dodgers? They had the most loyal folling of any team in any sport in history. They left for LA, why, because in bussiness, it's quantity not quality. Which pen comany makes more money selling pens? bic, or Mont Blanc? Which produces a product to be proud to put there name on? If atlantic was smart they would understand that Jewel albums sales, 1.5 M don't match her popularity 2 top ten songs. Meaning that she has a small but loyal following. Most groups get more sales per hit. Alanis with 6 hits for 15 M, Boys II Men 3 hits for 20 M etc. etc. People who engage in the sale of unlicensed CDs can't find enough to sell to all the people who want them. If Atlantic were smart they would release limited edition Jewel material for the die hard to enjoy and they don't have to spend one dollar promoting it. CDs, or vinyls, doesn't matter. But Atlantic isn't a smart label, they are predictable and stupid. They just stick with what works, never ever try anything new.

A bird heard the whisper.. and rushed to her.. whistling.. longing for a gentle touch.. a warm embrace.. She smiles with her heart.. What a divine spark!

I'd also like to thank Dan for his insightful post followup. I'm trying my best to keep my opinions out of it, but I must say everyone should read his post again. Anyway, I am being deluged with questions regarding tickets for this tour & requests for the Tour Dates by way too many people. PLEASE, from here on out, if you need the tour schedule point your browsers to my online chronology at Adam's site. He has now updated the 1997 page to include everything I currently know about the tour. It is available 24 hours a day at: http://home.sprynet.com/sprynet/xenomorph/jchron97.htm If you're curious about ANY Jewel performances in the past, present or future, it can all be found here. We've put a lot of work into this & it now contains info on well over 500 Jewel performances. From now on this week, all my upcoming posts will have information guaranteed to contain HAPPY exciting news! There's still a lot of things I found out from Lenedra & I will get to them as soon as I can. I felt the tour dates & album status were what everyone was most concerned with, so that came first. Stick around for much more! Lastly, today, I want to tell you about something "minor" that Lenedra seemed pretty excited about that all you collectors might want to track down. There's an industry magazine called "Hits" that is mainly sent to industry people only & Jewel is on the cover of the next issue. She's been on the cover once before. You may be able to get one from your local record store owner. I know a lot of them subscribe. Its an expensive subscription (I think around $300.00 per year) but they may give it to you when they are done with it. According to Lenedra, the photo used on the front cover is THE MOST EXTRAORDINARY picture of Jewel that they've ever seen!! I haven't seen it myself, but a recomendation like that sure makes me want to see it! So if anyone finds this (I'm working on it too), please contact Adam at xenomorph@sprynet.com so he can get it up on the "Pieces of Jewel" site for all to enjoy. Thats all I have time for today.

Well, this is unsurprising to say the least. I thought Atlantic was crazy to release the new album with PoY doing so, _so_ well! (And Jewel too with all the awards!) I'm not sure whether record companies have actually done market research so it might just be an industry myth that same-artist albums compete... ...Atlantic is also very good a releasing CD-singles, that is if they take a similar approach to theirs with Tori, loads of CD-singles, loads of alternate versions and prev. unreleased songs. Foolish Games will make an excellent single, I always thought it was one of the more powerful tracks on the album, but there at least two other really good singles (IMO), Don't and Near You Always, OK three Amen, well Maybe 4 with Angel Standing By. She's still touring so we'll hear lots of the new(er) songs anyway... ...this upcoming cd will, I'm sure, be worth waiting for!!!

First I know most of the bouncer at the State and beer girls. Which means free beer and a spot 3 feet from stage. For those that don't know, the State Theater has about 40 feet of open floor between tables and the stage.

If the parties for her at Second City pan out I know everyone and anyone you need to know to get up close and personal.

Well, I decided to check out the local used cd store in our area. No Save the Linoleum or Phyllis Barnaby (big surprise :-} ) However, I did get the MOM cd with Quiet Warrior on it for $8.99. Did I pay too much for it??? Not that that would have kept me from buying it. They had some Tori and some Melissa Etheridge hard to find stuff, but they were all $30, I passed. No Rugburns either. Oh well, everybody have a great day!!!! tlc ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 03 Feb 1997 17:04:48 EST From: diablo13@juno.com (Edward A Frayna) Subject: Yo Peanut Butter Guy Eat Me!!!

And that is the only point. Please go *don't like them* somewhere else, where people are looking for bands you don't like.

Hi y'all, This letter is a call to for "leaf" requests for TWO Jewel tape trees that will run concurrently, using the same branches for both trees! To see the SET LISTS for the two tapes involved, please read the companion post to the list entitled "Jewel Tape Trees - Set lists for the Jeweltide Carols tape & 5/18/96 Boston tape". (It was sent at the same time this one was, but for you digest subscribers, it MAY be in the next digest, as I won't know for sure until I send this) PLEASE read EVERY word of this post. Many of you are experienced tape "leaves" and/or "branches". However, many are not and may be totally lost in this. This post is written for their benefit...the new folk. So veterans, please bear with me. Two quick notes: ALL BRANCH APPLICANTS WHO ALREADY APPLIED - As I said in Emails to you, if you are not chosen as a branch, you do not have to send in a leaf request as I will automatically put you in the leaf pool. ALL NEW FOLK WHO HAVE NO IDEA WHAT A TAPE TREE IS - there is also a note for you at the end of this Email for you explaining what a tape tree is. The two tapes that are being offered in this tree are: Jewel Rocks The Paradise - is a very high quality re-master of the Jewel concert from the Paradise Club in Boston on 5/18/96. I realize more than a few of you may have a 'version' of this tape but believe me, this re-master is a 'must have'. Dan Stark, who did the re-mastering said, "I'm absolutely thrilled with the way it worked out! I'm pretty much a perfectionist when it comes to this sort of thing, so you know if I'm bouncing off walls it sounds pretty good. :)" Jeweltide Carols - consists of the Jewel sets from two holiday multi-artist fests that Jewel was a part of in early December 1996. While the sets are identical, the very high quality (and full stereo), plus the 'extras' make it a very desirable tape to have. The extras include: Jewel and Lenedra (her mother) belting out "Rudolph The Red Nosed Reindeer" (with Jewel scatting!!) and the walk-on Jewel did with the Wallflowers to sing "6th Avenue Heartache". Each tape will be a 90 minute cassette. There will NOT be any DATs, mini-discs or VHS Hi-Fi available of these tapes, standard audio cassettes only. A SYNOPSIS OF THIS TREE: As this tape tree offers TWO different tapes, you can 'request' either one or both tapes. You (the leaf) will EMAIL me with a leaf request per the instructions below. You do not have to tell me which (or both) tapes you want, you will be telling that to your assigned branch later. (In other words, it don't matter to me if you want one or both, as it does not matter at all at this point) When I receive your leaf request, I will immediately reply to it just so you know I got your request. (Call it a return receipt if you will) I will assign you to a branch and EMAIL the both of you about it, with basic instructions on what to do. It may be 2 weeks before you get this leaf/branch assignment. So PLEASE be patient. Some of the branches will not yet have their master tapes when I make this assignment. The branch will contact you when it is time for you to mail him/her your blank tapes. (your branch will also include some further instructions particular to his/her methods of being a branch) WHEN TO EMAIL ME: Now if you want, but don't wait too long. I want to wrap up the leaf requests within 7 to 10 days. HOW TO EMAIL ME: ALL I need to know is your full name, your Email address (duh), and where you live. While it's not really important in the USA, I'm going to try to do geographical leaf/branch assignments. So, what I need you to do is to Email me with the SUBJECT (NOT the body) of your Email in the following format: leaf,state or country where you live Please, do not put a 'space' after the comma examples: leaf,alaska leaf,england leaf,new zealand leaf,Israel leaf,canada leaf,new hampshire leaf,california leaf,guam Please, NO abbreviations either, spell it all out. In the BODY of the Email AT LEAST tell me your FULL NAME and if you intend to send METAL tapes to your branch, tell me that too. I do not need to know your postal mailing address. Your branch will later, so you can Email it then to him/her at that time. If you have ANY questions about any of this, feel free to Email me. :) Everyone involved in this project sincerely hopes you enjoy your tapes. Remember, please get the SUBJECT of your Email to me right. :) It will help immensely. Your fellow Everyday Angel, Mike ____________________ WHAT IS A TAPE TREE: A Tape Tree on this list is a system utilized to distribute hard to get music of Jewel, be it live recordings or cuts from promotional releases and/or interviews. The basic structure for a tape tree that it is a co-operative effort among many subscribers to this list. It is to spread the music of Jewel, at no cost, other than to supply your own blank tapes and to pay for the return postage. It is done in the spirit that if you can, just maybe you can return the favor someday. If not, so be it. The "tree" will start with one or more "seeds" who have a master copy of the tape to be treed. These seeds will each make copies for the "branches", who supply their own tapes plus return postage. The branches are recruited by the tree administrator via a post to the list. After the branches are nearly set up, the administrator will then post to the list for "leaves". The leaves then Email the administrator with the requested information, and they are then assigned to a branch. The leaves then send blank tapes, plus return postage to the assigned branch, who then makes copies for the leaves. That's the basics. ------------------------------ End of jewel-digest V2 #70 **************************
