I see you in the dark of sorrow, I see you hide behind idols of make up, behind coffee house performers, being forced to strive for perfection when you cant even achieve last place. I know your anguish, always chosen last if at all, being told your a failure, a loser, a misguided soul who cant find their way in eternity's scheme. Those who would tell you they care for you and then turn away in cold unrecognition. I love you they claim , I'll never leave you, I'll always be by your side. Lies, nothing but miserable untruths. Beg for forgiveness they might and we take them back into our arms unaware to watch our backs as the sharp pain of betrayal stabs our backs again. who are they to judge. to bully, to use to promise. they dont know you, they dont know me. They are fools and failures in their own right who don't even know themselves. Affection and Love are lies. Friendship is a braggarts security blanket. I know this, I feel your pain. I know the abuse for I have lived it and have been consumed by it and therefore have become it. Those who have offered me their hand in friendship I offer a slap in the face. Those who offer me their embrace i offer a blow to the stomach. To watch the sickness flow as you have given it freely. This I know. I feel your pain. Join Me and i'll set you free.

He did not have a broadcast time nor info on possible VH1 repeats, (nor is this info available at this time) but he said that knowing VH1, and the fact that "Jewel is very ratings-friendly which is why they love broadcasting her specials", it will likely get some additional airings. Of course, VH1 will be announcing air times on air soon :) This is a very rare and prime opportunity for many Jewel fans to finally get a tape of this show, as it has not had a *national* airing in nearly two years. The show is officially called "The Wizard Of Oz In Concert - Dreams Come True". Taped at the Avery Fisher Hall (Lincoln Center) in New York City on November 5th 1995, it had its' premiere television airing on TNT on November 22nd 1995 (also Thanksgiving) with a handful of repeat airings on TNT over the next month. While sporadically seen on various PBS stations over the course of the last two years, it has been a hard find indeed. Released on CD (Rhino Records - R2 72405) and VHS video about a year ago, while the CD is relatively easy to find, locating the video is a near impossibility anymore. (It's out of print) The show itself was a charity fund raiser, benefiting the Children's Defense Fund, as are the sales of the video and CD. (from the CD...."100% of the net proceeds from the sale of this CD benefits the Children's Defense Fund") With Jewel as Dorothy (the witches' Dorothy?), the show features some interesting names in other starring roles. Nathan Lane: pretty much stole the show as the cowardly lion. Lane IS Bert Lahr in this....you may know him from the film "The Bird cage" with Robin Williams. In that film Nathan played....well....he wore a dress most of the time) Roger Daltry: the lead singer of The Who is the Tin Man. His version of "If I Only Had A Heart" was produced as a "Who" number...really kewel!! Crank the stereo when this number comes on :) Jackson Browne plays the Scarecrow (no comment, except I think this role was miscast) Joel Grey, a veteran Broadway (Cabaret) & film actor plays the Wizard. For the younger list members, Joel is Jennifer Grey's father (Jennifer played Ferris' sis Jeannie....ain't I just full of trivia tonight? :) Natalie Cole is the Good Witch (small role if I remember correctly) The Boys Choir Of Harlem play various Munchkin roles (and Toto too!!) and a few other "names" make brief appearances in minor roles. Then there was Jewel. Ahhh Jewel! :) Fond memories indeed :) This show was the first I had ever seen or heard of her. I was intrigued from the first moment. The previous days' preview of the show in the USA Today hooked me initially (I've been a huge Wizard Of Oz fan for ages...still a kid at heart) and their mention of "The sultry Jewel starring as Dorothy" piqued my interest too. Watching the show for the first time, I was mesmerized by her. Infatuated. "Sultry" indeed, of course I was impressed by her singing, but her peculiar voice inflection when she spoke her roles hooked more and I saw (I HAD to) nearly every repeat of the show over the next month to "get more of this Jewel". (My VCR was in the shop) Thing is, I had ZERO idea she was a singer by trade, I just thought she was some new Broadway musical star on the way up. I took her to be about 26 to 28 too (she was 21). After the airings ended, as I thought she was "Broadway" and I'd likely never see her again, I rather quickly forgot about her. Forgot about her that is, until early April of 96. I was home sick with mononucleosis (for 5 rotten weeks) and with being house ridden 24/7 nearly all my time was spent surfing the net (I had JUST gotten my net account) and watching VH1. That early April Saturday night I saw Who Will Save Your Soul for the first time. "WOW" I thought, "This is that gal from the Wizard Of Oz" :) So, at about 10pm that night, minutes after the video ended, with about a 102 degree or so fever and sweating like a madman, I drove to WalMart and bought Pieces Of You. I was floored. The CD (with some exceptions) blew me totally away. (I'll admit it, I totally missed the point of the song Pieces Of You just like most of the folks who first hear it) Playing the CD nearly non-stop and surfing the web for more info about Jewel (like most of us have at one point) I found the original EveryDay Angels web site (now at http://www.smoe.org/lists/jewel/angels), which was back when there may have been a half-dozen Jewel web sites period. In the wee hours of the morning I joined this list. Back then, just 19 months ago, there may have been 400 members total on the regular list and Jewel-digest combined. (There are nearly 2800 now for the THREE versions of the list) It's really odd how things/fate works out. Mid-April '96 I was home quite sick with mono. Usually NEVER watching MTV or VH1 and really not listening to "todays' music" that much at all, I saw Who Will Save Your Soul for the first time, buy POY and joined the list the next day. Three months later I was fortunate enough to be the lucky one to introduce Jewel to the crowd at JewelStock. I've met nearly 300 EDAs/list members over the course of my so far 19 months on this list. I've had some of the most enjoyable times of my life at EDA gatherings meeting everyone. Some of you I consider my closest friends. Ya know, I may be the only person on this planet who is grateful for having gotten mono :) Mike :) * The Jewel Mailing List Netiquette & New Member Guide is at: * http://www.spectra.net/~ducksoup * * If you are new to the list and need someone to guide you * please check out the "Adopt A Newbie" page at: * http://www.geocities.com/wellesley/3079/newbies.html * * If you have list related questions, feel free to email me * at Ducksoup@spectra.net * * DuckofPrey@aol.com WhyADuck55 on AOL Instant Messenger ------------------------------ Date: Sun, 16 Nov 1997 20:11:28 -0500 From: "ng3@ix.netcom.com" Subject: Address Change Anyone who e-mailed me or who was gonna e-mail me about the UK tapes, please send it to ng3@ix.netcom.com instead of sammy3@ix.netcom.com.

Many people have been wondering what the JEWELry project is, and others who know what it is, just want to be updated. Please feel free to e-mail me with any futher questions, comments, or anything. Following is a message I have been sending to everybody who has asked about JEWELry. Just thought I'd send it, so you'd all be updated and stuff. joe **************************************************************************** ********* This is an attempt to explain what the whole JEWELry project is, and what it is all about. A few months ago I was reading something, and the word 'jewelry' caught my eye for some reason. I don't know why the word was more significant this time, as I've seen and even spoken the word probably 100,000 times or so. Anyhow. I looked at it some more, and said 'hey joe, you could do something with this'. So, I made the proposal to create some kind of jewelry for EDAs only. I dubbed this project JEWELry for obvious reasons. For those of you that don't (if anybody) understand what I mean, the word JEWEL is found within the word JEWELRY, and since this list is about Jewel, we decided to call it JEWELry. Anyhow... I went to the list searching for ideas, support, and people that could assist in making this JEWELry. The JEWELry project is completely NON-PROFIT. I received many wonderful suggestions about what we should do for the JEWELry project, and in the middle, I was unfortunate enough to have to begin a huge marketing campaign and what not for my company. Having to devote much of my time at work, school, and home to this marketing project, I had to put JEWELry on the back burner. With the campaign planning pretty much over now (i've still got a lot to do, but its mostly funding, and analysis), I have more time to commit to the JEWELry project. Some of the wonderful ideas include Dog Tags (most were supporting dogtags with a light blue silencer, and a logo-type of the EDAs, as well as the words 'EveryDay Angels'). Other ideas included an EDA choker (again, most people were supporting a hemp, or hemp-like rope, with either an angel, or other significant charm of sorts). Others suggested having a bracelet that read 'EDA'. The EDA bracelet was considered, and after learning that certain Christian organizations used similar methods of spreading their beliefs, I decided that I didn't want the project to seem 'church-ish,' or 'cult-ish'. As an individual, I do not personally want the Christian beliefs related to the JEWELry project. I'm certainly not putting down any religion, or belief system, but the JEWELry project is not about preaching the gospel of any god, but the gospel of being an EDA. No idea has been chosen as of this very moment, and no idea has really been discarded (with the exception of the EDA bracelet). Several people have stated that dog tags are not a good idea, because they've served time in various armed services, and want to move on with their lives, and not be subjected to wearing dog tags again. Others have stated that they don't like dogtags because they clank around all of the time. The reason for the blue silencer is to "silence" the tags. Several people have also stated that chokers do not fit their neck. Many have suggested that the choker be cut down to anklet, or bracelet size. If we do decide to go with the choker idea, the cutting and resizing will be up to you. They are not going to be produced as anklets, or bracelets as far as I know. What you do with you JEWELry is your business. I think the JEWELry project is a really good idea. If for nothing else, it will be easier to identify eachother at concerts and stuff if we wear it. Thanks to all who've replied over the past few months, and who've put forth some effort. I welcome any further ideas, and stuff, so feel free to e-mail me. joe ------------------------------ End of jewel-digest V2 #875 ***************************
