I'll let Alan post what Jewel actually called him that night at JewelStock, if he so chooses. Even if you know the whole story, let Alan decide if he wants it made public... (but that's what he got for telling the poor girl how to run her show -- well, that and a sweet job) :-) It certainly wasn't out of pride or shameless self-promotion. I have the market cornered on shameless self-promotion! (You gotta admit, I came damn close to upstaging the girl at her own concert. Was that really eight years ago?!?) - -- Harris "Who ARE the Harris Brothers?!?" -- J. Kilcher, July 18,1996 "Aww, goddamn ye Harris Brothers!" -- J.

Having the high ground in any public venue is best, unless it's a hanging. :-) When do we have another spoon party at the Campbell household? I'll bring the pinata and sake. Harris.

He also has the best recollection/verification of Jewel lyrics in the world, arguably second to only Tom O'Brien (who, as many of us can recall, served as Jewel's human teleprompter at quite a few shows)...

Hey, that's pretty funny, James. In my high school days I swiped a flashing traffic light, threw it in my van and realized that I was blinking brightly all the way down IH-35 in Austin, a sitting duck for the Texas Highway Patrol... in hindsight, not very smart. Eventually thrown over the side of a bridge into the Onion Creek River, the light made the coolest illuminated water display you could imagine... for about a week! (Imagine a lighted koi pond stocked with catfish, turtles and water moccasins.) Every night my friends and I went to the bridge to see how long it would last. I had forgotten about that escapade until you shared yours. (kids, don't do that now -- you'll be branded a terrorist and they'll put it on your "permanent record"!) Insofar as the velvet rope/stub hub people not sending your pictures, I suspect money is the reason. Jewel will eventually release a video with a Slowman in it, possible with him riding beside her on a shetland pony. (Hey, there's a reason Jewel won't let me direct her videos... actually, there are a LOT of reasons Jewel won't let me direct her videos.) And if some (or most) people don't get your inside jokes, well, who cares? Mine amuse me, yours should amuse you. Jewel's reaction to Woody at the VH1 tapings was a big smile and "oh, you have one of those TOO?" No one is ever terrified of Woody (even when he wears his pillowcase ghost costume at Halloween). Then she scribbled her name on his nose with a Sharpie(R) pen. I still can't get it off... Harris. Trust me (tm). ------------------------------ Date: Sat, 11 Sep 2004 23:19:56 +1000 From: Barry Howarth Subject: [EDA] SJC: Not found on the web, it mustn't be true ... I guess that while Dennis is having a night at the opera -- and make sure you don't miss the party of the first part -- and probably getting up to some monkey business, Mike will be eating his duck soup, maybe with cocoanuts. Now, I'm not sure about the co-cow-nuts. On the down side of the world cows don't have nuts, but I'll defer to your upside qualified farm personnel at the Heifer International regional center (we habitually and obsequiously do). And what about horse feathers? They could teach me about that too. But I'd rather spend a day at the races or be at the circus ... where the lights are bright and the geeks and the freaks all light cigarettes and laugh at my misery. It's driving me crazy not ... And there ain't no sanity clause. So I'll just go west to the big store, but not to the new wild west, because there's no one leading you there. Couldn't leave the beautiful Ms K out of it seeing her name's on my shirt. ------------------------------ End of jewel-digest V9 #254 ***************************
