I also have an Ovation, and I can also say it's a fine guitar. The main complaint people have about them is the sound. The issue is that the majority of the guitar body (except the top sound board) is made of a plastic/polymer material. I've had mine for about 9 years, and I had come to accept the sound. I'm in the finals stages of deciding on a new guitar, and I tell you, after playing some of the Martins, Guilds and Taylors, it's tough to listen to the Ovation. It just lacks that warm tone that you get from wood and steel. It'll be tough to find a guitar that looks like Big Blue, that's a custom job. Most acoustics are have a natural finish. It looks like a guitar with a Jumbo body and a cutaway, another not too common feature. The main thing I can stress is, buy the best guitar you can for the money. It makes an amazing difference. To get a very good acoustic, you need to get up into the $1000 range, and that will get you a low end Martin or Taylor. Jewel's main guitar, the Taylor 912-C, lists for around $3500. That should give you an indication of what the top of the line guitars will cost. Hope the info helps...

It seems that even the schools she has attended are looking out for the community as well. Today, the Detroit News released an article detailing the effort of Interlochen to help the underprivildege children in the area. The only sad part is that they did not mention Jewel as an alumni (did she graduate?). I still think Jewel would be proud to know that her school is giving back to the community. Mr. BB, could you see that this is forwarded to Jewel in some capacity. In short: Interlochens alumni will be helping out the Boys & Girls Clubs of Metro-Detroit, holding art workshops for the children For the entire article keep reading: Love, Mike EDA from Detroit INTERLOCHEN TAPS ALUMNI TO HELP KIDS by: Michael Hodges (Detroit News) Heeding President Clinton's call for greater voluteerism, Rich Odell, president for the Interlochen Center for the Arts, has unveiled a partnership to boost the presence of the arts in the lives of Metro Detroit's at-risk youth. The prestigous northern Michigan arts academy is joining with the Boys & Girls Clubs of Southeastern Michigan and the Museum of African American History to launch the I Am project, harnessing the energy and talent of Interlochen's 7,000 Metro Detroit alumni. They will reach out to the 8,000 youths served by the Boys & Girls Clubs. I am (an acronym for Interlochen Arts Mentoring) would create a series of art workshops focusing on percussion, rhythm, sculpture, painting and photography overseen and led by Interlochen alumni. Plans are also under way to establish a summer art camp that would begin operating next year out of the Museum of African American History. "We're reaching out, and that is what the arts are should be all about," said Odell, who next month will be honored for his efforts as one of The Detroit News' 1996 Michiganians of the Year. Odell noted that it is only appropriate, after all Detroit has given Interlochen in talent and corporate support, "that we now do our part." Marilyn Wheaton, Detroit cultural affairs director, called I am the kind of program her boss, Mayor Dennis Archer, wants to see in Detroit. She said Archer would have attended Monday's announcement were he not in Philadelphia taking part in the volunteerism summit led by former Joint Cheifs of Staff chairman Gen. Colin Powell abd attended by Clinton and former Presidents Carter, Ford and Bush. "I am just thrilled," said former Detroiter Michelle Hailey, director of program services at the Boys & Girls Club national headquarters in Atlanta. Hailey noted that a program such as I Am is "precisely the sort of step to help these kids see their next opportunity." In an example of what mentoring can accomplish, Michael Walters, an Interlochen senior and Skillman Scholar, danced a modern solo for the guests. Walters, a Detroiter who attended Northwestern High School, said it was the artistic director of the Detroit-Windsor Dance Academy who "helped me realize I am a dancer." Would he enjoy mantoring a youngster after he graduates? "I'd love to," he said. Because of drastic reductions in many school's asrts programs, "we have to be pioneers" in restoring that lost influence, and "help prepare kids to be world citizens" for the next century, said Michelle Parchment, education program coordinator for the MAAH. Ready to accept that challenge is Rick Robinson, a Detroit Symphony Orchestra bassist. "It takes a village," said the Interlochen graduate, invoking the title of First Lady Hillary Rodham Clinton's book, "and I want to be part of that village." ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 29 Apr 1997 13:20:12 -0400 (EDT) From: Matty Nangle Subject: first release..... well, after much deliberation, i've decided my choice for jewel's first release: sometimes it be that way. i think that it should definitely be an upbeat song. after foolish games goes through the charts, i think (unfortunately) it may leave a bad taste in the public's mouth. it's not that i don't like the song (that's the farthest from the truth), but after YWMFM and WWSYS, i'm not sure how the general public will react to a song they can't bounce around to. that's why i think "SIBTW" would be a logical choice. what would be TRULY amazing, would be the release of Silver Lining, because that would surely boost the careers of jewel AND the rugburns. does anyone think that could be a possibility? take care-- - -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= This message was brought to you by: Matty Nangle Syracuse University mcnangle@mailbox.syr.edu 315-443-8905 "Your New Rock Alternative" 89.1 - The Pulse - WJPZ-FM "i've got this great idea. why don't we pitch it to the franklin mint?: finding portraits of General Apathy and Major Boredom singing 'whatever and ever, amen'" (ben folds five, "the battle of who could care less") =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 29 Apr 1997 13:29:41 -0400 (EDT) From: ABershaw@aol.com Subject: Updated Lilith Fair w/Jewel (only her dates) info Hi all, Heres an updated list of the Lilith Fair dates that Jewel plans on participating in.

I think Down with Cleveland on the other side would be a great double A side single (add some other versions of POY tracks to make and EP). It would be an imaginative next move for Jewel's record company to promote some of her newest material to help bridge old and new fans. Then release her next album to tie things up...

Recently I have found out some rather disturbing news about some of my friends. I need to get this off my chest so I'm posting this to the list in the hopes that I can get some helpful advice. Last night I overheard two of my friends talking about me. I've already signed the lease to rent an apartment with these two guys and two others that we each know. Anyway, they were talkin about everything about me that bothers me. One of them said, "I'd like to know what his parents are like... addicted gamblers." This really hurt me. The fact that one of them would make fun of my parents even though he has never met them was extremely disturbing. He went on to say, "I have to admit I really don't like him (me)." And, "I don't think I could live with him the next two years." The comment about my parents was very disturbing so last night I wrote them a letter saying that I overheard that comment as I was walking down the hall. I didn't tell them that I listened at their door for the next hour to hear what else they had to say about me. They haven't responded to my letter yet. What I want to know is what should I do? I don't have too many options. I'm already legally bound to live with them next year. I can get over the fact that they don't like me that much. I don't know if I can get over the fact that they hide it all but discuss my faults with everyone else on the floor. I need to know if I should confront them and tell them that I heard their entire conversation. I know this would bring up another problem because they would feel that I invaded their privacy but it also might be the only way thatI can ever get them to admit how they really feel about me. I've felt very sick ever since I heard their comments last night and I could only sleep for about an hour even thought I was extremely tired. Any advice that you guys can offer would be greatly appreciated. Sorry for posting this to the list but I don't know where else to turn. While I was typing this the two guys came in the room and apologized. They explained that they have been under a lot of stress and I explained that I have too. I think things are going to work out. I think they realize that I am a person with feelings too. I doubt they will ever talk about me behind my back again. They feel really guilty which they should. I feel really guilty but they still don't know that because I couldn't tell them that I eavesdropped on their conversation. I almost cried in front of them. This has been the most difficult day of my life so far and hopefully none of you will ever have to experience it. Gladly, I think everything will work out in the end. Please feel free to offer suggestions even though I've already talked with them about this. It will help to know that other people have been throuh similar situations. Thanks again for listening.

I am so sorry to be doing this to you, but this post has NJC whatsoever. I think a lot of you will think this is lame, but I am writing this post directed towards a specific friend. This friend of mine is a list member, and most definitely an EDA...one of the most angelic people I know. Really a sweet sweet kindhearted guy. I wold be emailing him personally, but he said that he needed space... ...and I have this feeling that somehow I did something to bring this about...last night I wrote a poem about it. It's not meant to be any sort of a *good* poem, but a poem it is nonetheless. I wrote it late at night...and not for the sake of poetry...but here it is... If I gave you my tears, would you be able to read them? could you find the love in my soul could you find the fear in my lips could you find the sadness in my eyes could you find the confusion in my body The things you say drive me crazy turn my tears into novels telling stories of how I messed up because right now I am not all you need me to be. I'm on my way, I promise, but I know you can't see it. What can I say to make you understand? Open my soul to the words of your world. How can I belive what I never before could? Show me, guide me, lead me past my doubts. I feel really weird about posting this to the whole group, because I should be emailing my friend privately, but this is the only way I think I can talk to him. So...if you are reading this and I hope you are...I mis you. And I love you. You are such a cool friend...one of the most generous souls...one of the kindest hearts...and I know you say you need space, but i miss you. Part of the reason why you need space, I know, is because of the level of trust I have in you and the level of trust you want me to have in you. Can't you understand that I am trying? That it is all so hard for me? I'm sorry, I know I should not be doing this, but i love you. You really have been such a wonderful friend and I miss you so much.

I had a million things to do and not enough time do it. And then there was this argument.. and so on. And then on VH1 cam pop-up videos. I love pop-up videos-even the song is bad I will mute it and read the pop-ups. For some reason I like to know all the interesting facts behind things. And guess what JEWEL came on I even got to tape most of it only problem is it isn't on the tape with any of her other performences that I have taped it is on the tape that I was tapping the shinning on I havn't started watching it but if it does get to scarry it will have that nice Jewel video in the middle. That little excitment buzz only so long though. Couldn't fall asleep Did though think of some good poetry-they got lost in dream land. Today was okay aside from this one algebra problem I can't get, I'll leave it at the bottom and if you get it you have the wonderful prize of making my day a little better. Probaly should stop typing little sentence fragments. They are easier to spell. Does anyone have the guitar tabs for "Rocker Girl" I promised my sister I would get them if she got me the Rolling Stone. We sang again last night. I keep giving her guitar tabs to Jewel songs so I can sing with her. If her guitar was in tune and if she had bigger hands she could would probaly sound better. Today I watched "Popular Videos People Prefer" you have to watch that in the morning so you can say you watched it becaue it is fun to say(try it). Have an algebra test tomorrow hope I do good (cross your fingers) I am trying to get my fingers to shut up but they keep thinking of dumb things to say. I hate to go but I think I am starting to talk to myself. Maybe if I medatate I will get those poems back in my head-Hey I think it is comming. Sorry about that pause I thought I had it.

I have their CD, which I love, but they didn't seem that popular. The only song I think they came out with on the radio (I can't be sure, my car radio doesn't work, just the tape player and at home I listen to CD's) was "Banditos" and I don't think it had a video. They sing about Mexico a lot, so I thought they might be based in California or Texas. If so, have any of you seen them? Do any of you know of anything by them earlier than "Fizzy Fuzzy Big and Buzzy"?

I love this girl!!!! Does anyone agree that the pic is awesome? The hits mag photo is still the best in my opinion. The RS cover picture is great but my favorite is the one on horseback! I felt it conveyed what Jewel's childhood was really like and that it provided an insight into the formative period that she describes so well in the Rolling Stone article. "We'd be canning salmon after school while other kids would be watching HeMan." She stops strumming her guitar for a second and gets a little misty eyed. "But I was also very proud of it, and it shaped me into a certain kind of person. You'd get up at 5 in the morning, and there would be frost on your eyelashes. I shared a room with my brothers. I'd cook breakfast, milk the cows, walk three miles to the road, hitchhike to school. It was a very romantic and poetic existance." Jewel spent many hours writing in her journal and signing in the pure mountain air. The cover photo is highly styled, cute and sexy, the kind of picture that sells magazines, but the horseback picture reveals Jewel's essence.

Someone had to say it and someone eloquent and intelligent did! Hooray! Helen ______________________________ Reply Separator _________________________________ Subject: Abortion Posts Author: Grrly1@aol.com at INTERNET Date: 4/29/97 9:40 PM In my opinion the EASIEST way to start the Longest flame war in histor is to bring up Abortion, everyone will have a different opinion in this matter and while everyone may bring up a good point it is one of those things that is completely useless to fight about because you will NOT change someone elses beliefs no matter how hard you try. I do belive that people should have there own choice for abortion... but i am NOT going to force the issue down other peoples throats and tell them "This is how you have to think". Part of respecting the Opinion of others is not going off on them for having a different view than you. So please stop this now, i personally cant stand Abortion wars because i know they will never end, its just not worth fighting over.

Another good guitar for a really inexpensive price is the Charvel 625-C (about $450) It's an amazingly custom-looking guitar for the price...It has a cutaway, though the coolest feature about this acoustic/electric is the fretboard... It has three extra frets (25) on the treble side that extend partially into the soundhole... Pretty neat looking, and sounds good, too... Just my $.02 Peace, Rev.
