You can all imagine how upset I am by this. Here is what I am asking of anyone who is kind enough to help: record it for me, simple huh? I'll send you a tape and return postage. This is very important, I am DYING to see it!!

I was just thinking that it'd be wonderful to get a group of EDAs together from the Bellingham, Wa. area just to hang out and make some good friends. I find that although we are all incredibly diverse people that our intrest in Jewel stems from one quality that we have in common. A quality that happens to be of the greatest importance in creating fulfilling friendships and personal relationships. I guess I'm just thinking that we could all benefit from a mutual support of one another through life, through school, and with our hearts. If you're at all interested and at least somewhat in the area, write me a quick response. If there is a good amount of interest, or even if we only have a small group, I think it'd be fun to get together for a picnic or party, or whatever have you, especially with the nice weather we've had lately. Anyway, I hope to hear from a number of you. Erik the idealistic angel dragoncloak@yahoo.com _________________________________________________________ DO YOU YAHOO!?

My copy has a lot of tape hiss & back ground noise. I'd like to find the people who helped tree this recording back in early 1997. Also looking for Jewel collectors who personally taped Jewel in 1996. If you anybody can help that would be great.

So I put the mouse traps and cheese down and flipped through the magazine and found it on page 68 in an article entitled "The Magnificent Seven", which is an article they have about seven of the "new Hollywood heartthrobs" or something like that. Like a doof, I forgot the issue date and who is on the cover, but I know it is the new one just out (The old "Jenna Elfman" one was still out in another store) Mike - whose cat is apparently afraid of mice, or just too old now to give a d*mn ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 09 Mar 1999 18:37:46 -0500 From: Mike Connell Subject: Repost: SNL sketch parodying Jewel to re-air on Comedy Central Wed. Hi folks :-) This is just a repeat post from a few days ago.... On Wednesday March 10th at 11:00am and 6:00pm Eastern US time, the cable TV network Comedy Central will be repeating an episode of Saturday Night Live that had a featured sketch that parodied Jewel. (Jewel herself is NOT in this show) By the way Comedy Central also has a SNL repeat on at 2:00pm, 10:00pm and midnight eastern time, but this is NOT the same show they air at 11am and 6pm......just so you know. Anyway, since the original shows air over a 90 minute time slot and the Comedy Central reruns are trimmed to an hour, the whole episode obviously will not be shown, although a major portion of it will be as Comedy Central has less commercials per hour than Saturday Night Live does. So it is anyones' guess as to whether or not the sketch about Jewel will actually be in this rerun. Anyway, the episode originally aired on Saturday November 8th, 1997 and Jon Lovitz was the host and was in the Jewel sketch. I myself missed it when it aired and it never did repeat in the Saturday Night Live time slot, and I have no idea if Comedy Central ever aired it before. Just a warning though.....it pokes fun at Jewel the way Saturday Night Live pokes fun at a lot of celebrities....it exaggerates them, so to speak. I just read the list archives from the day after this show originally aired and while many of the EDAs were upset at the way it poked at Jewel....many laughed a lot, taking it all with a grain of salt, understanding that it is the nature of comedy. After all, a major category of comedy IS satire. So, for those of us that missed it 15 months ago, here is our chance. For those that have no clue as to what the sketch was about, and for those that have since forgotten, I will not post details about the sketch....it will be more fun watching it not knowing.

Welcome to our 5th EDAF online newsletter! First off, we'd like to thank Stefan who wrote to us about some volunteer work he's involved with: "I just wanted to say that I enjoyed your newsletter, and I look forword to the opening for membership. I plan to join as soon as that happens! I have worked with the Meals on Wheels group who delivers meals daily to the shut-ins and those who cant get food for themsleves. My mom is the one who actually does it, but in her eight years of working with the group, I have gone with her to get a feel for what another way of life is like. It is a heart opening experience, which had some effects for why I started writing. My first book of poetry will be released this spring, and I look forword to sharing with others and doing more for those who aren't so fortunate." Membership details will be unveiled next week, Stefan... BACK TO THE BEACH Even though Old Man Winter is again hammering us with snow, we are selecting a New Jersey beach to adopt in the name of the EveryDay Angels Foundation and commit to clean twice a year. Details should be worked out in the coming week and we will have our very own "EDA sandpile" to keep in order! Meanwhile, local EDAs (that means anyone within a 5 hour radius of NY :-) will want to mark April 24th on their calendars as the day of the spring cleanup. More information will be forthcoming, including what fun activities we will do after the cleanup! Last year we participated in three east coast cleanup and conservation efforts, and want to extend our activities to other parts of the country. If you care about your environment, want an excuse to hang with other EDAs and would like to join an event in your local area, email us at EDAFinfo@aol.com. We'll try to team you up with other local EDAs. We'd love to be able to adopt beaches on the west and gulf coastlines too, but we need EDAs to commit to the effort! Of course, who wants to HAVE to go to the beach twice a year?!? ;-) Also, if anyone is interested in joining the NY area MS walk on April 18th please contact Amy at w1ggy2@aol.com (NOTE: the second character is a NUMBER ONE). So far, a number of EDAs have expressed an interest... If you are an international EDA (ie, not in the United States) and would like to share what angels are doing overseas, or want to start some activity, please contact us. After seeing Jewel on tour, we bet her inspiration calls for some perspiration -- and good will -- on your own part! REMEMBER, being an everyday angel means more that joining a chat list to us -- it means making a difference, big or small, alone or in groups, while being good to yourself, the people around you, and the environment. Write to us at EDAFinfo@aol.com and let us know what it means to you! Until next week! Be kind to llamas and other four-legged creatures! :-) Amy, Dennis and Tom for The EveryDay Angels Foundation ********************************************************* The EveryDay Angels Foundation is a non-profit public benefit corporation whose mission is to promote grassroots volunteerism and community involvement.

I probably can't remember them all at the top of my head. Hmm..i'll try to remember them now. OK: 1) I know that the song Nikos (My absolute FAVORITE song in the world) is a true story, but my question is, is all of it true? Did Jewel really go to a psychiatrist and does she still not know where Nikos is? 2) At the end of Jewelstock she said "take care of your purple teddies." What does that mean? 3) Is Nikos and I'm Sensitive the only songs she wrote about her true life? 5) Is "behind the wall" tracy chapman, or jewel's song? 6) Is "Hotel Angel" and "Moon Over Austin" the same song? (i could easily double check that, but I'm to lazy..hehehe :) 7) On the "Rare Angels 1996" recording, Jewel mentions one of her favorite poets. Did anyone catch the name of it? I can't figure out what it is, and I would like to check out their works. 8) Is Jewel's next CD going to be a country album, or is that just a rumor? 9) Is Jewel's next book going to be a book of short stories, or is that just a rumor too? 10) Does Jewel visit WHFS (radio station in Baltimore, Maryland) a lot, because on my tapes, there are two or three interviews from her there. I am just wondering this because I live in Maryland, and the radio station is very close to my home! Ok, so maybe it wasn't TONS of questions, but I know I still had more. If I think of them later, I'll email you...(yeah yeah yeah, I know..not AGAIN). Thanks for listening! Hope someone can answer these!

Did Jewel really go to a >psychiatrist and does she still not know where Nikos is? >From what I've gathered over the years, the song "Nikos" (now called "Brother") is mostly if not all autobiographical/true. I cannot say it's 100% true, I'm not sure anyone here but MrBB knows for certain. She did meet up with Nikos at a show during the Tiny Lights Tour in 1997 (I think it was in Colorado) and I would have to guess they haveat least semi-regular contact now-a-days. >2) At the end of Jewelstock she said "take care of your purple teddies." What >does that mean? Ever seen any pictures online from JewelStock where Jewel is planting a wet one on a stuffed purple teddy bear? (His name was Fuzzy). One of the EDAs who attended (Robb Leigh) brought a purple teddy bear that pretty much became the co-mascot at JewelStock (Dennis Harris was the other co-mascot). Well, anyway....Jewel "met" Fuzzy and made many of the male EDAs at JewelStock jealous of the critter by giving him a smooch. >3) Is Nikos and I'm Sensitive the only songs she wrote about her true life? She's always said Nikos was her "most autobiographical song". (To be honest, in my opinion, I'm not sure you could call "I'm Sensitive" an autobiographical song) >5) Is "behind the wall" tracy chapman, or jewel's song? Tracy (Jewel usually mentioned Tracy when she sang it) >6) Is "Hotel Angel" and "Moon Over Austin" the same song? (i could easily >double check that, but I'm to lazy..hehehe :) Same song. >7) On the "Rare Angels 1996" recording, Jewel mentions one of her favorite >poets. Did anyone catch the name of it?

Oh gosh.......M_______i something if I recall correctly......my tape is in the truck..... >8) Is Jewel's next CD going to be a country album, or is that just a rumor? >From what we've gathered, it's just a rumor based on a tongue-in-cheek comment Jewel made late last fall. (I believe this is covered in the "Rumor or Truth" section on the Jewel website. >9) Is Jewel's next book going to be a book of short stories, or is that just a >rumor too? I read short stories recently in an interview she gave......Alan and/or the Jewel website should know for sure. >10) Does Jewel visit WHFS (radio station in Baltimore, Maryland) a lot, >because on my tapes, there are two or three interviews from her there. I am >just wondering this because I live in Maryland, and the radio station is very >close to my home! She used to in the past as that Baltimore station was one of the ones/few that truly embraced her early in her career.
