Cheers, Adrian ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 23 Apr 1999 16:38:22 +0200 From: "Roel Cobben" Subject: Got the Down So Long single & cover artwork... Hey EDAs, Today Down So Long is released here in Holland. Of course I bought it :-)) BUT: I am a bit disappointment. Not because of the cover work. That picture is fantastic! But the songs (Fat Boy at Stepherd's Bush and I'm Sensitive from Save The Linoleum) are not the best songs Jewel performed live ... Personally I think Fat Boy isn't the best song on the (fantastic) SPIRIT album. Referring to the postings about the favorities and non-favorites here, many EDAs agree with me ... Why isn't a favorite song of almost all EDAs put on the single?? Down So Long is a GREAT song, but I guess there are better songs than Fat Boy and I'm Sensitive to put on this single ..... For example: Amen at Stepherd's Bush ..... Any replies are welcome :-)) Does anyone agree with me? By the way, I put the cover on my site. Go to http://www.r-cobben.demon.nl and you'll see it immediately :-)) Seeya, Roel, The Other Everyday Angel. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

Now she's over here and trying to convince us Brits that deep is meaningful. Catherine McDonnell was open to persuasion Singer songwriter Jewel Kilcher is only 24 but she's already accomplished a lot. Her debut album Pieces Of You sold eight million copies in the US, while Spirit, her second album, has already sold four million copies. Her book of poems entitled A Night Without Armor has sold two million copies and this autumn she makes her acting debut in Ang Lee's Ride With The Devil. Despite such vast achievements, Jewel insists she hasn't found her feet yet. "I see people around me who inspire me," she explains, "And I realise I'm still quite young and unaccomplished for my age." This obviously, is a big fib. No one is "unaccomplished" after achieving so much before they're 25. For Jewel it's not enough though. She's worried about her inner self. She published her book of poetry, she says, so "People could see my vanities as well as my aspirations for goodness." And Jewel's aspirations for goodness are huge, having set up a charity, Higher Ground For Humanity, with her mum Nedra. "We're working on world events as well as local," she says. Jewel is the kind of person who makes you feel guilty for talking about Eastenders when you could be out saving the planet. Peering over her cup, slurping tea through a teaspoon, she talks about trying to understand herself and other people. I tell her in a moment of British-not-searching-for-myself-ness that after 27 years, I know myself pretty well. She looks puzzled. You think you know?" she queries. "I'm nowhere near knowing myself. All the time I'm growing and evolving." "Yeah, Jewel. Me too," I backtrack. Jewel is what can only be described as 'very intense'. You can't ever imagine her dancing to Steps. What could she gain from that experience? Instead of disco dancing to relax, Jewel writes. "If I'm getting uptight, my friends are like: 'Will you just go and write,' because they can tell I haven't written." And Jewel works - all the time, "I haven't had a day off in five years," she states. Mainly, however, Jewel is sorting her head out. "I write because I have thoughts," she explains. Jewel grew up on an Alaskan farm which had no electricity or running water. Aha, is this the root of Jewel's deep thinking? She thinks not. "Everybody feels they were having a hard time," she muses. "Whether people are rich or poor, everybody thinks, 'What's wrong with me? Why aren't I getting along?'." After life on an 800-acre homestead you'd have thought Jewel had had enough hardship for one lifetime. She hadn't, though and aged six, she earned money by travelling with her father and singing to a host of unsavoury characters. "I saw a lot of cultures," she explains. "From bikers to American veterans with missing limbs. It taught me compassion for people. It made me try and be as thoughtful as I could in my own life so at least my life can be my own choice instead of a thoughtless thing." Thankfully, Jewel isn't always a complete goody-goody. Sighing as she goes through the list of places she is soon to tour - Europe, Australia, Asia, the US - she says she's suffering from tour fatigue. "I get tired of travelling, even though I look forward to doing the shows. And I find promotion hard. You don't get gratification for doing it." I smile at Jewel in this, her hour of need. "You sometimes get a bit jaded I expect," I sympathise. "Jaded?" she asks, her voice rising for the first time. "Do I sound jaded to you?" There's a dramatic pause. "You do a bit..." I mumble. "Well, if you listen to your tape you'll find I don't sound jaded," she snaps. I listen to the tape when I get home. Talking about her tour, Jewel sounds jaded. Jewel, is a star who is adamant she didn't work to be a star. She wants to make it clear success fell into her lap and her massive album sales and huge popularity just happened. "I never wrote thinking people were going to hear my songs," Jewel explains, so sincerely it's hard not to believe her. "I wrote because I wanted to write songs. It was something I did in private. It just turned out bigger." And how it did. At 18 Jewel left her dad, moved into a van and sang in coffee shops to earn money. A record deal arrived. Fame, success, money were hers. But for Jewel, living in the car was "more free and lovely." In a way it's almost too easy to knock Jewel. We're British. Our feet are firmly on the ground. We'd rather dance to hits like Cleopatra's Theme than hum along to folksy deep stuff. "I'm inspired by the Dalai Lama, Martin Luther King, Buddha, Jesus, my mom..." says Jewel, and the urge to pat her gently on the head and say, "But of course you are," is almost too great. Despite all this, some of her songs ain't half bad. - ------------------------------ Chris.

Or if your travelling around this summer, maybe at your destination someone will be playing...so check it out at: http://thespis.com/crashboy/EDArtists/EDArtists.htm I've been working with Eric to start trying to keep these updates current. If you have any additions or want to help, I'm accepting it.

Greenfield (ICQ #23716126)" Subject: EDA Get-Togethers Before Sunday's HGH L.A. Show Hi, all! Here are the latest plans for EDAs to get together this weekend in Southern California before Sunday night's HGH benefit concert in Hollywood: On Saturday night at Java Joe's in Ocean Beach (San Diego), Gregory Page and his band are playing, and Anya is opening. Gregory, a former "Rugburn," is one of Jewel's favorite musicians. Anya is Steve Poltz's new girlfriend. Joe's is a great place and a terrific spot for EDAs to gather, so that's Saturday night. On Sunday, people will meet at noon at Pink's Hot Dog Stand in West Hollywood, located on La Brea Ave., just north of Melrose Ave. (Pink's is Steve Poltz's favorite place in L.A., BTW.) Afterwards, an early excursion to the Theater to check out who has checked in, and an excursion to a wonderful herbarium where an EDA is apprenticing, are on the agenda. I hope to meet a bunch of new people, and I look forward to seeing old EDA friends, as well. This show is gonna be great! Woo Hoo!! Seey'all! - -=-Larry-=- ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 23 Apr 1999 16:18:05 EDT From: Spirit828@aol.com Subject: A question about Jewel Hey everyone, I was just wondering - whose quote is this - "Be the difference that makes a difference" - Is it Jewel's? The reason I am asking is that at my school we have a theme for the schoolyear, and we put it on a banner which is hung on the outside of our school. I think that this would be an awesome theme for it this year, but I need to know who it was said by. Does anyone know? Any help would be greatly appreciated :) Thanks, Kelly *the angel who wanders through life and wonders about it" ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 23 Apr 1999 17:05:00 EDT From: Emilie0278@aol.com Subject: Foolish Games/Batman & Robin Hello EDAs I'm sorry to talk again about this subject but I still wonder why Foolish Games is on the Batman and Robin Soundtrack ; I know that the song is not included in the movie and that it is said to be inspired by the movie. But the song was written long before the movie, so it can't be inspired by the movie. And anyway how can a movie like Batman & Robin inspire Jewel ? Because I'm sorry guys but this movie really sucks. See Ya Emilie ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 23 Apr 1999 16:59:24 EDT From: Turook@aol.com Subject: NJC: JUST AN UPDATE I while ago I posted about my story and coping with cancer (chemo and radiation). I just wanted you all to know that my tumors went away. I still have 7 more weeks of radiation, but everything is working out great. I just wanted to say thanks to all the encouraging e mails and support. Thank You Thank You Thank you!!! ~Amy the angel that keeps smiling ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 23 Apr 1999 20:27:51 EDT From: Kermit49@aol.com Subject: Fumblers This is the first time I have ever posted, and I must admit I don't even read the mail from the list very much, but the topic about Fumblers caught my eye. (I'm a fumbler) The Fumblers as a whole do NOT hate the EDA's, many dislike Jewel, but hey, that's their opinion. As for the tee shirt thing, as far as I know, that's NOT true. They did have a tee shirt, and we are in the process of making a new one, but Jewel or the EDA's are not mentioned at all. Also, don't go being defensive and insulting the FTE list. You may think your list is the best, and it is great I'm sure, but most people will never understand the closeness of the Fumblers. It's like one big Family. A family of over 700... And the topics discussed range from anything to everything. (which is very different from this list, as far as I have noticed.) Anyway, I just felt I had to say something, though I do know I'm bit late, but oh well. ~Jenn ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 23 Apr 1999 18:35:08 PDT From: "Sam Garcia" Subject: What Magazine? Hello EDA's I was wondering if any or you new which magazine it was that had a picture of jewel on her horse and there was sparkles allaround her.

The PNC Bank Arts Center in NJ just released its summer schedule and Jewel is supposed to play there on July 23. Have I missed a list of her concert dates or is this just out? I'm so excited to go and I have to get a wristband from TicketMaster so I can try and get good seats! I was too far back at her last concert. Does anyone know if this is the best way to go about getting the tickets or is there even another way where I'd be likely to get good seats? Write me if anyone knows... amy *the raindrop angel* ------------------------------ Date: Sat, 24 Apr 1999 00:21:25 -0400 From: Mike Connell Subject: Jewel North American tour dates - here's a PARTIAL listing :-) Hi folks :-) Normally I would leave this to MrBB to post, but I know he is flying to San Diego tonight and lord knows when he will get online again. (absolutely great timing there Alan! :-) Anyway, I just found this information on the Atlantic Records website at http://www.atlantic-records.com (I can only hope it is accurate), but I *know* it is just a PARTIAL listing of Jewel's North American tour dates. This listing has only 13 dates and only goes up until late July/Woodstock 99-ish, and I know she has shows in August (maybe into September?). So there is obviously much, much more to come :-) PLEASE....I nor MrBB has any specific information on any particular show, so please do not email us asking for more information, as we do not have any to give. We do not know ticket prices, venue phone numbers, when tickets go on sale etc. So please just call the places below for more information. If you do not know a phone number, call information, please do not post to the list asking for phone numbers. If you get reliable information from a venue, of course feel free to post such things as when tickets go on sale etc. Also....again....I am *100% sure* there are more dates to come, as some large cities/areas are not listed below, including areas that MrBB posted that would be hit this summer, so please just sit tight if your general area is not listed below. More is to come, I have no doubt. Those of you planning on going to Woodstock 99 in Rome NY will note below that on the first two days of that event she has shows scheduled for New Jersey and Jones Beach (New York City), so it *seems* she will be appearing at Woodstock 99 on that Sunday the 25th of July. (unless of course she pulls an afternoon gig at Woodstock 99 on that Friday or Saturday and then scoots her little tooshie on down to NJ or NYC for a show that night...certainly a possibility) Mike :-) via http://www.atlantic-records.com/ Partial listing of Jewel North American Spirit tour dates: 6/25/99 - Bakersfield CA - Bakersfield Centennial Arena 6/26/99 - San Diego CA - Coors Amphitheater 6/27/99 - Laguna Hills CA - Irvine Meadows Amphitheater 6/29/99 - Mountain View CA - Shorline Amphitheater 6/30/99 - Portland OR - Rose Garden 7/02/99 - Vancouver BC - General Motors Place 7/03/99 - George WA - Gorge Amphitheater 7/05/99 - West Valley UT - E Center 7/09/99 - Dallas TX - Reunion Arena 7/10/99 - Houston TX - Woodlands Pavilion 7/11/99 - New Orleans LA - UNO Lakefront Arena 7/23/99 - Homdel NJ - Garden State Arts Center 7/24/99 - Wantaugh NY - Jones Beach Amphitheater - - * If you are new to the Jewel list and need a helping hand, * or have a burning question about Jewel and/or the list, * The Jewel/EveryDay Angels List Homepage & Guide is at: * http://www.spectra.net/~ducksoup * Many basic/common Jewel and list questions can be answered there :-) * * If you can't find the answer on the page have any list related * questions, please feel free to email me at ducksoup@spectra.net * or you can IM me on either of the AOL names below: * DuckOfPrey or WhyADuck55 and/on AOL or AOL Instant Messenger ------------------------------ End of jewel-digest V4 #213 ***************************
