I'm thinking about going on the Golden Rope Tour. Has anyone been on it? Is it fun? How long do they give you to meet Jewel? Is it just a quick "Hi My name is...Good to meet you." I think I'd be too nervous to say anything more than that. How does it work? Thanks for the help, Steve ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 5 Nov 2003 04:19:42 EST From: SullMa84@aol.com Subject: [EDA] Lilith//Jewel artical in my local paper Appeard in the Milwaukee Journal-Sentinal today: Post-Lilith Fair era hasn't always been kind to women By CHARLES PASSY Cox News ServiceLast Updated: Nov. 4, 2003West Palm Beach, Fla. - It wasn't so long ago that women seemed to be winning the battle of the sexes in the music world.Sarah McLachlan Thanks to Lilith Fair, the Sarah McLachlan-led festival that gave a host of emerging female singer-songwriters room to showcase their talents, women were being embraced as never before by radio stations, record labels and the broader pop industry.At various points throughout the mid- to late '90s, music critics were quick to declare it the "Year of the Woman," an observation that prompted Joni Mitchell to ask: "You mean that's all we get?"Jump ahead to the present day, and Mitchell's question becomes all the more relevant. "Let's put it this way: The year after Lilith Fair, Eminem became huge writing songs about killing women," says Rockrgrl magazine publisher and editor in chief Carla DeSantisIt's not just Eminem who was responsible for a shifting of the tide. The predominant sound of Lilith - not just feminine, but a folk-minded, sensitive sort of femininity - was almost immediately drowned out by musical expressions more hard-edged (the nu-metal of Korn and Limp Bizkit) or teen-friendly (the glossy pop of Britney Spears and Christina Aguilera).In the process, several Lilith artists all but vanished from the scene - when is the last time you heard from Paula Cole? - while others ended up taking their careers in a sexually charged, pop-minded direction.Changing her look Remember the earthy Jewel and her songs about listening to Mozart and saving souls? Well, she's traded them in for a dance-friendly groove and a look that has pin-up girl written all over it.But strong women have hardly vanished from the scene. In fact, female performers have taken home the Grammy Awards' best new artist trophy for seven years running.For that matter, take the whole "anti-Britney" school - the next generation of female singer-songwriters that includes Avril Lavigne, Vanessa Carlton and Michelle Branch. These are women who speak with a powerful voice about their lives. In the case of Lavigne, the subject might be more about skater boys than saving souls, but it's still plenty personal.Blender magazine senior editor Rob Tannenbaum says that Lilith "helped a whole generation of female fans recognize their appetite for songs about their own experiences." And the industry took note.Guitar market Major guitar companies, including Gibson and Ovation, have begun aggressively marketing to women. Daisy Rock is a California-based guitar manufacturer that creates instruments exclusively with female performers in mind, from pre-teens to adults (Daisy Rock guitars are lighter than traditional models). Since the company started three years ago, it's averaged 60% growth every quarter.But while Daisy Rock has found success catering to the female market, the same can't be said for radio stations and record labels. In the years since Lilith, radio has all but abandoned the format known as "modern adult contemporary," which catered to women by prominently featuring female rock artists.And record labels have seen the percentage of female buyers shrink from a high of 53% in 1995 to 49.4% last year, according to the Recording Industry Association of America.There are other factors to the post-Lilith story besides shifts in musical styles. Consider the corporate consolidation of the radio industry and the increasing financial pressures on record labels in a piracy-driven world.If stations and labels aren't taking chances with softer-sounding female artists, that's because they aren't taking chances on much of anything. The theory these days is to go with sure bets - and someone like the bluesy Joan Osborne, a Lilith star who hasn't had a hit in about eight years, is hardly anyone's idea of a sure bet. x x x x x x x Request "Stand", the hot new, political single from Jewel!
