Williams" Subject: NJC: Liar, Liar (Review) Hey guys (THIS IS NJC), I saw Liar, Liar tonight and just wanted to tell all of you that this movie IS A HUNDRED TIMES MORE FUNNY THAN THE PREVIEWS!!! The previews can't show some of the material as (although it has A WONDERFUL subplot about parenting) it is not really a kid's show. I'm kind of used to seeing Carrey act up, but this was different. There was no psycho haircut, no missing tooth cap, just pure humor. No cliches from other Carrey movies. In fact, he laughs at his acting style at one point. On an acting note, the producers put some outtakes of the movie that never quite made it at the end right before the credits. These are even MORE hilarious. Anyways, WONDERFUL MOVIE. Be cautious with kids though as it contains adult material and some of the lesser offensive adult language...... :-) Bye! - Terrence R.

Hey Angels, Bryan here again. I have some info for all of you who are intrested in the EDA playing Cards. Here's the deal. THE DESIGN: Basically the cards are going to be EDA-Blue with Gold Metalic lettering. I must say, from the prelimary design they look fablous. Photograph transfers are not possible. I will be using a NON JEWEL QUOTE!!! At present, nothing has been decided. If you have any suggestions, let me know. You never know, yours may be the one that is liked the most. So please, send be a NON JEWEL Quote or idea!! THE OTHER STUFF PART I: The cards including shipping(bubble pack and postage etc.) will come to around $15.00 They are definitally worth it. I've seen some examples and the Metallic Gold writing against the Blue background really stands out. THE OTHER STUFF PART II: I need to really know who is intrested. Once I can get a head count, I'll procede from there and get in touch will you all again. For the record, I'm not making any profit off of these and I'm totally donating all my own time. THE OTHER STUFF PART III: I really would like to make this a list event in which everyone has a say on how these playing cards actually turn out. So please, feel free to give in your $0.02. PS, if responding to this privitally, please put "Playing Cards" in the subject line. Thanks, An EveryDayAngel, Bryan. ------------------------------ Date: Sat, 22 Mar 1997 02:41:44 -0500 (EST) From: gegertha@tiac.net (Karen Snyder) Subject: NJC Moxy Fruvous Hi Angels For those interested here are some dates for the band these are all worth checking out.

See a chunk of you in KC tomorrow. This won't be long as every minute here is a minute less sleep. This probably will seem overly critical - I'm tired and a bit disapointed so go figure. Before the show a local radio station (which had already earned a high enough spot on my sh*t list that I've been boycotting their "festival"s, including the one in which Jewel made her only St. Louis appearance previous to last night) was giving out promotional ummmm somethings which were basically the size of a soda cup lid, but thicker, apparently had a sticky back and were filled with that glowing chemical stuff that wears down after a few hours. Definate potential frisbee material. Thankfully I didn't see any thrown. Rugburns (again, I only have TtWBD as yet, so any help appreciated) - -------- ?Baby Won't You Take Me Home? ?I Thought I Saw You Last Night? Kiss Your Ass - great to hear their take on it ?I Love Everything About You? Balcony People - sound check creation for the nose-bleeders there Gold's Gym Guy ABCs of Love Mama Good Morning I Miss Waking Up Next To You Tree Hugger I'm Gonna UPS My Heart Next Day To You 42 minutes Throughout the set, there were occassional (a couple in fairly rapid succession every other song or so) *blinding* flashes from the crowd aimed not at the stage, but AT THE AUDIENCE. Finally one of the culprits wandered down an aisle near me and I was able to figure out what was going on - the aforementioned radio station had people taking powerful flash pictures of all the happy gel-pack wearers in the audience. Needless to say, with stunts like this (which pale in comparison to what got them on my bad side in the first place) they continue to rack up marks in the "too lame for words" column. Jewel - ----- Near You Always 1,000 Miles Away (a great rendition punctuated by those who only seemed to hear "I'm lying next to you". Now that, Alanis, is ironic) Morning Song Satellite Little Sister Boy Needs A Bike Foolish Games Sometiems It Be That Way My Own Private God's Gift To Women YWMFM Adrian Run Tonto Run "You're in Cleveland Today" Deep Water "Just Passing Time" - still no title mentioned Fragile Flame (Fat Boy) Silver Lining Painters Angel Standing By Chime Bells WWSYS Amen 96 minutes A very good set list and under different circumstances probably one that I'd be bouncing off the walls for. The crowd seemed a little worse than Indianapolis, though, to their credit, they quieted down for NYA much more quickly. Ultimately, she responded to one too many shouted comments, inviting more and more such that they were coming after what seemed like every line in her post-WWSYS, pre-Amen talk. John Hagen (the cellist) was absent, and (by me anyway) missed. His part in the intro to WWSYS in Indianapolis was great. A bit about the theater. It's an adequate General Admission (probably 90% or better of its shows are GA) venue. It's fairly ornate, has an adequate sound system and a roof to keep the weather out. That said, it is an absolutley crappy reserved seating theater. Both my reserved seating experiences there have been made less pleasant by the way it's set up. Essentially, they haul out hollow, flat tiers into the large normally-empty area and place (very) portable chairs (one step above folding chairs) leg-to-leg on them. In last night's case they had 5 rows/tier. Front row gets an excellent view, 2nd row gets a very good view, 3rd starts getting poor, 4th is quite bad, 5th is almost blind on the second and third tiers. Just as agrivating is that every footstep is amplified by the hollow structure and the easily (and often) moved chairs even moreso. If Jewel wanted an all sit down show (an usher said the seats were at Jewel's request), there are a couple of similarly sized venues that not only have better acoustics (her cancelled Christmas show was to be at one of them), but are honest to goodness seats-don't-move-sloped-floor- so-everyone-can-see theaters. That sounded pretty whiny - it's just frustrating that an otherwise good show was made much less pleasant. Perhaps I'll remember it more enjoyably in the morning. bob ------------------------------ Date: Sat, 22 Mar 1997 04:03:58 -0500 (EST) From: gegertha@tiac.net (Chris Snyder) Subject: NJC Great review Hi Angels I have been going to Folk concert for the past 12 years so I am used to some amazing experiences but I was mouth-to-the-floor blown away by the concert I saw tonight. I think partly from going to some Jewel concerts with bad audiences I had forgotten what a treat a modern folk(rather than traditional) concert is. I was able to see the sound check which was alot of fun including the lighting check which not to be mean to whoever designed Jewel's lighting, but made Jewel's lighting set-up seem distracting and overdone. Flame me if you want but I'm telling the truth. Anyway, to get to the good part. The opening act was a singer-songwriting harp player named Dee Carstensen. If you haven't seen her run to get tickets. She is amazing. I had had a not so great day and by the end of her set I had melted into my chair through the relaxed mood and the voice everything had gone away. One thing that struck me during the show was how quiet the audience was. If you have never been to a folk show you need to go. It was literally quiet ebough to hear a ppin drop, or at least a pen which I did hear someone drop at one point. The amazing thing was that I was nearly 100 feet away. Listening to the tape now it is as quiet as the Jewelstock tapes. What made it even more amazing was that the crowd was nearly 1,300. Except for Toronto I don't think it would be possible to have this great an audience at anything except for a folk concert. Back to the music. To finish off her set Dee Carstensen, her drummer, and her guitar player launched into the most amazing version of Buffalo Springfield's For What It's Worth. Everyone was clapping in unison and I was later told that people downstairs could actually feel the vibrations caused by the clapping. The drummer ripped into an amazing vocal sole tearing through the first verse of the song. I know those of you who have heard Jewel sing Summertime know the power of her voice. Dee's drummer made Jewel voice seem like a Geo next to a Mack Truck. This was followed by a three minute standing ovation while the lights were turned on. Afterwhich Dee came out and told the crowd that the theatere management would not let her sing another song because it was late already. This would have been amazing if it were the main act but I have never seen this happen for an opening act. So if any of you are anywhere near any of the below venues, GO. It will be worth the effort you put in. I talked to someone after the show and they said the Buffalo Springfield cover alone was worth the $14 dollars that he had paid. If you aren't near any of these shows at least go to a folk show so you can see what an audience should be like. One advantage with a folk artist is that if you really like a folk artist you can actually meet them rather than just get a wave. One last thing that makes Dee amazing is not only is she indie but she had the guts to independantly put out a live album. If you go to any of the shows get this album. Hope this didn't go to long and I didn't get to preachy. Tlak to you later. Here are the dates. Wow I didn't mean for it to be this long especially considering it is now 3:45 By the way the main act was Susan Werner, if you want a review e-mail me.

My name is Mark, and I'm a 22 year old guy who lives in Utah (why I'm admitting this is quite beyond me). I'm pretty new to the mailing list (about a week old), so I haven't had the chance to get to know any of you yet, but I hope I will soon. Anyway, here's my problem.......... (this is rather long, so please bear with me, ok?) I'm sure you're all probably aware that Jewel isn't coming here to Utah (Utah, where's Utah???) in concert, and I want to see her so much it hurts (no joke). I had a chance to win tickets from our local radio station here to see her in San Diego; they started a contest Monday morning and went until Wed. evening. Every hour they would play a qualifying song and if you were the 9th caller, you would be entered in the drawing. I stayed awake the entire time listening for the right song, staying right by the telephone and radio, living on Dr Pepper and Vivarin. I was lucky enough to qualify twice, but it went to no avail. Needless to say, I felt terrible when they did the drawing and didn't pull out my name. I cried (I know, you're probably thinking what a wimp, but that's how much it means to me), and thought how unjust the world is; I thought I deserved to win it!!!! Anyway, since I didn't win the tix, I'm trying to figure out how I can travel to California, find a place to stay, and see Jewel on my limited budget. So I hope I can pose these questions to all of you EDA's living in San Diego and LA without offending anyone with these very forward propositions. 1. Does anyone have any extra tickets (just one, I'm by myself) for the San Diego show or the LA shows? I'd rather go to the SD show, but if the LA show is the only one availible, I'll gladly take that. Or do any of you know where I could get a ticket for myself? I'm not even sure if it's sold out or not (probably is I'll bet). And how much are they? (please forgive my ignorance) 2. Does anyone have or know of a place I could stay at while I'm there? Possibly with some fellow EDA's or friends of EDA's? I don't have much to offer in the way of monetary payment, but I'll gladly help with anything around the house (ie., mowing the lawn, cleaning bathrooms, washing dishes, spaying or neutering a pet, etc.) or anything else you could think of that would help reimburse that person (or people). Oh, by the way, I'd supply or pay for my own food. 3. I'm planning to ride the bus to California, but if any of you know of anyone who is travelling from around here to see the shows, could you let me know? I'd be more than happy to help pay for gas. If anyone could help me out with any of these questions, I would be so grateful to them forever. You can e-mail me at Rittmanic@aol.com. I wish I could just drive my car down there and live in it for a few days, but the problem is is that I don't even have a car! I'm just a poor, starving college student with very little money but with an huge, gigantic dream, and that's to see Jewel in concert. I wish I could convey to you how much she and her music has affected me, but I know I wouldn't even scratch the surface. I've never cried just listening to a song before, until I heard Jewel sing. In my own humble opinion, her voice is the closest you could get to heaven (or paradise, or nirvana, or whatever you want to call it) without dying. I never thought I'd hear a voice that could move me to tears the way hers does. I'm sorry, I must apologize; I didn't mean to take so long. I want to thank you all for taking the time to read this very long letter all the way to the end. I hope that someone out there can relate to what I've said and would be kind enough to help me out with my request, even though I think I've stepped way over the line of ettiquite and good judgement by being so forward with you all. It would mean SO much to me if this dream of mine could come true, it would literally make my life. Even though you are all EDA's and Jewel means so much to each of you, I still don't think you realize how much this would mean to me if this dream could actually be realized. But then again, maybe you do. Anyway, I'll end here and I'd like to thank you all again for reading this letter. Peace be with you all............... --Mark ------------------------------ Date: Sat, 22 Mar 1997 03:42:28 -0600 From: asset.moo@mail.utexas.edu Subject: Re: jewel-digest V2 #208 > >Date: Fri, 21 Mar 1997 22:42:02 -0500 > >>Of course I don't hate you David!

I posted, in the beginning of Marh, about this guy I was dating, Suvir. Well, he is no longer in my life. I love him, and I know I always will, for true love lasts forever, but I can notbe devoted to him anymore. You see, I went home for Spring Break and was supposed to meet him in NYC to spend some time with him. My plans got all messed up, because I had some horrible fights with my parents and I was basically allowed to do almost nothing. I spoke to him to tell him that I was unable to meet him, and he did not let me explain why. This was at the very beginning of my Spring Break. He did notcall me all week long or get in touch with me, and I knew it had something t do with the fact that I could not go into the city. So I left him voicemail on his answering machine attempting to explain the events that lead up to my being unable to see him. I had told him many times about my situation with my parents, but it was obvious that he never cared enough to listen to what I had to say, or else he would have understood what was going on. So I get back to school. I had well over 800 emails, all from you angels, but there was nothing from him. I emailed him to attempt, again, to explain to him what happened. Still, no sign of him. Then, a couple days later, I found him on the computer and we had this big fight. I am OK with it, I am more than OK with the fact that he is gone. Basically, I realized that he never listened. Unless he "got what he wanted in a physical sense" he was not happy and did not really give me the time of day. I feel like my guardian angel was watching over me that Spring Break. Yes, the not hearing from him and fighting with my parents was hard, but I feel like my Angel was watching over me to show me that he is not right for me, that being with him would have been a huge mistake and would have hurt me even more than the knowledge that even though I love the goodness in his soul he is not the person I should have something with. ANd something really wonderful happened. I have a radio show here at my college every Tuesday night from 9-11 PM. On my show, I read my own poetry, and I play music I like...JEwel, Natalie Merchant, some cool mellow and folk-y stuff. Anyways, towards the end of February, this guy, Scott, called my show. I had just finished playing a JEwel song and had started a song from a Natalie Merchant boot I have. As it turns out, Scott is a painter, and a graphics design major at a nearby university, as well as a sophomore. He said that my poetry was absoluly beautiful and that he oculd relate and understand. We talked for about 20 minutes, and at the end, he requested that I play "Painters" since he was painting an assignment for one of his art classes. I knew he had to be cool just because he requested Jewel. I took his phone call as a random compliment on my show, nothing more, nothing less. Well, this past Tuesday, I had my radio show again. And again, I was reading my poetry and playing my cool music. And the phone rang. It was Scott. He said that he loved the pom I read (it was a poem I had written over Spring Break), and he filled me in on the Jewel show he saw at the 9:30 Club (he spent some time talking to Steve Poltz, and he was standing right by Jewels managers and stuff...pretty cool). We were talking more, about poetry, about music, abou;literature, art, painting, and before I knew it, about 45 minutes had gone by. I had to get off the phone, because I wanted to read another poem, but he gave me his email address and asked for my phone number. We spoke a couple more times via email (his full class load and work schedule made it more convenient to talk over email in the middle of the week), and we met in person for coffee on Thursday night. It was great. I think what really made it great was that for the first time ever, I was notnervous. I was not nervous to meet him. I did not get all self conscious, as I normally do. Usually I sit there with this attitude like "why will he want to meet me...i am so ugly he will wince and turn away." Instad, I somehow had this inner-reassurance that it was going to be good, that he appreciated, respected, and liked me for who I was or else he would notwant to see me. Maybe it was my Guardian Angel or something. I don't know. But coffee did go well. In fact, Scott even called it a "blind date." And he kept on telling me that I am a cool person and stuff like that. And I am supposed to see him again on Tuesday. The past couple nights I have actually slept the whole night through (I am an insomniac, so that is really incredible), and I was able to wake up in the mornings (I am the worst in the mornings...never able to get ou;of bed...never able to comprehend anything), and I have had this incredible smile on my face. For some reason, I have really good vibes about Scott. Please keep your fingers crossed for me? I am in such a good mood that I felt like I had tooshare this with you. Have a great Saturday, EDAs. It is so beautiful outside, I think I might go grab a blanket and do my studying ou;ide under a tree. I love you all.

Williams) To: GraywolfLA@aol.com (INTERNET:GraywolfLA@aol.com) Date: 97-03-22 04:48:51 EST Hi Larry, I am delighted at the thought of attending a welcome home Rugs party and at the Morales' home--I liked both Tom and Nancy quite a bit. Thanks for the invite. Happily I am free, and have marked my calendar. There were some errors in the information we gave you on CLB's tour (she and Elizabeth left today, in a new red Oldsmobile). In regard to Minneapolis, the correct venue is Bryant Lake Bowl. Madison also needs correcting (that's where the Art House Cafe is, and Sun not Fri!). I'm going to print the latest list below. In addition to the two changes just mentioned, note additions: 30 Mar Colorado Springs; 9 Apr changed to Toledo and now confirmed; 11 Apr now Ypsilanti, corrected venue name; 15 Apr in Buffalo not confirmed after all; 16 Apr is now Boston, new venue; Toronto and Montreal canceled; 8 Apr in ALbany now confirmed; 19 Apr now in Hoboken (unconfirmed); 21 Apr now Phila; dates added 29 and 30 Apr, Atlanta now confirmed; Athens confirmed for 3 Apr. And more to come. Thanks for helping to get the info to the people. It means a lot. Yes, let's talk soon...

Luke P.S. everyone get your comments over so this topic will be done okay! P.P.S sorry about that I was getting angry but please stop this talk thanx ------------------------------ Date: Sat, 22 Mar 1997 12:06:19 -0600 From: jnye@probe.net (john nye) Subject: ywmfm dif. video hey EDAS I was just watching the vh1 top 10 countdown and jewel was number one with ywmfm but while I was waiting to see what was coming on they said here is jewel with a very different video of ywmfm and it was directed by Sean Penn(sp?) well it was differnt and they showed only about 30 seconds of it does anyone know where i can get ahold of a copy of the whole video.

There are some people who have e-mailed me about just what Save The Linoleum is. It is a promo CD that is very hard to find. It contains 7 songs: My Own Private God's Gift To Women I'm Sensative(Intro) I'm Sensative(Live Version) Who Will Save Your Soul Race Car Driver Flower I'm Sensative(LP version) It may not seem like much, but I was very glad when I got my copy last year, so I know that any Jewel fan would love this CD. Greg ------------------------------ Date: Sun, 23 Mar 1997 01:11:28 PST From: titletown@juno.com (Greg S Burosh) Subject: STL OK, here's the deal. I decided that instead of 10 people, I'll take whoever e-mails me by 12:00 tonight and add them to the list. It's funny that almost everyone has been looking for at least a year and everyone "needs" a copy. I got it my copy before I knew how hard it was to find, I was just looking for unreleased Jewel songs. Anyway, the suggestions for choosing a person have been: - -first person to e-mail me - -pick a number between 1-100 - -have an auction - -make up a trivia question about Jewel I think that the 1-100 number thing wouldn't work, because it is too random and there could be a thing if two people have the same number and everyone would be looking for a Jewel related number, so. . . But I'm open to all of the other suggestions. I'm setting a deadline for when to choose a person and I'll let everyone know tomorrow. Let me know what you guys think about these ideas or if you have anymore, mail 'em. Oh, by the way, there are 28 people in the pool so far. Thanks, Greg ------------------------------ Date: Sat, 22 Mar 1997 01:49:52 -0600 From: Aslan Subject: Chicago Theater and Ed's Hello Everyone. I got to see Jewel Headlining for my first time and well, I was tingling and/or crying. To those who were at Ed's, I'm sorry I wasn't there but my step sister couldn't get out of school early enough for me to get there in time.

I have to get off the list because I have no way of checking my e-mail's but as soon as I return I will resubscribe. I just hope I don't suffer EDA withdrawl. To contain your minds while I am gone here are some more questions, 1) Where do we really go after we die? Is there a heaven or a hell or someplace else or do we just disapear? 2) Where do our souls come from? 3)Where do people go when they disapear into the Burmuda Triangle? 4) Is there another dimension? How do I get into it? ~*Chrissy*~ ------------------------------ Date: Sat, 22 Mar 1997 13:18:33 -0500 (EST) From: Pinballplr@aol.com Subject: Hello, I'm new here. Hello, I just joined the list very recently and this is my first post. I just wanted to introduce myself to all of you out there. I'm thankful there is a list on the internet because I cannot find another Jewel fan in my town (it's a shame and I know some must be out there!). I attended the Jewel concert on Thursday night and it was fun. I was impressed with The Rugburns as well. That's about all I have to say now (believe me, you'll hear from me again!). I hope I stuck the the Netiquitte, I'm trying. Pinballplr@aol.com :) ------------------------------ Date: Sat, 22 Mar 1997 10:43:04 -0800 (PST) From: Matt Willcourt Subject: WWSYS video Damnit! I was happlily watching the WWSYS video in VH-1 yesterday and it was cut right in the middle in favor of a pay per view movie. It sucked! But in the part I saw it looked like Chris Cornell was one of the guys in the bathroom stall. The video was cut before I could see again if was him. But does anyone know if it was Chris? ------------------------------ Date: Sat, 22 Mar 1997 11:19:03 -0800 From: Michael Aston Jr Subject: Re: jewel-digest V2 #208 > Hey EDAs > I agree that you should not dwell on the superficality of jewels > teeth and I think that is one of the things that makes her perfect, her > imperfection to society. > But, in all reality us humans are that superfical and if we see > someone that we think is ugly we wont talk to them to see if they are a > beutiful person on the inside.

While what you say is true to an extent let us not forget the wonderful words of the great woman we come to praise (Jewel duh :) ). "What we call human nature in acuality is human habit." > "Pur Own Private God's Gift to Men", if you ask me!... > Deninis Harris You go that right. Michael Aston BTW I agree that her crooked teeth don't make a diffenernce in her incredible beauty. I was also wondering if anybody might have a copy of Jewels old YWMFM video on tape. I would love a copy (if that's allowed). I would pay for the postage and the tape and all. Thanks. ------------------------------ Date: Sat, 22 Mar 1997 11:05:58 -0800 From: Michael Aston Jr Subject: NJC: My musical tastes Well I must be the odd ball of the bunch. I have an interesting taste in music. I (of course) love Jewel. I also like Cardigans, Paula Cole, Shreyl Crow, Merril Bainbridge, & Donna Lewis. In other generas (sp?) of music I like Classical: Betohven, Bach, Techovesky, etc; Rock: U2, Soundgarden, Metallica, REM, Wallflowers (maybe this is the wrong place to put some of these but oh well). I loke alot more but these are the big ones.

We can only judge people on what we know of them, and the first things we know when meet someone is what they look like, what their voice sounds like, etc. This means people are going to continue judging other people by their appearence. The closest thing to a true meeting of the minds that I know of is the Internet. Skip the rest if you don't want to listen to the Philosophy of a 13 year old who has read one to many books on the human mind. I believe that we exist on two planes, the ethereal (excuse me for all the big words, I find that they are often the best way to convey an opinion), and the physical. We are only aware of the physical plane. Our minds reside in the ethereal plane, but they can only express themselves through the physical plane. Because minds can't converse directly (unless you are telepathic), we can only know people through the physical exprerssion of their mind. This is unfortunate, but this is something we will have to accept, because we are not all telepathic, so we will have to make do with these crude, hunks of fleshy matter to get our essence across to others.
