Jeff Hanson typed: >So, it's been fun and as I've said before, it's been great to watch someone so >deserving succeed. After re-reading this I hope this doesn't come across as >sounding egotistical. I've always tried to downplay my role on this list. I'm Well, Jeff may not want to sound egotistical, but I have no such reservations about trumpeting his, and Neal Copperman's, contributions to this list, and Jewel herself. I believe our esteemed list owner heard about Jewel through Jeff H. and Neal's tireless postings on ecto long before she recorded PoY. Certainly most of the first people who joined the list heard about Jewel through Jeff H. and Neal. You may hear Neile Graham pipe up about this, and certainly I myself credit them for introducing me to Jewel. (And believe me, I am everlastingly grateful, as are a bunch of my friends who I dragged to C'est What back in March '95). Back in the early stages of her residency tours, before her album, or her video for WWSYS was released, Jewel would play a town where she had never played before, and would find that she already had fans there. Most of those fans heard of her through the Internet, and most of those, through Jeff and Neal, directly or indirectly. I know Jewel was touched by this, because she said so when I asked her about it the first time I saw her at that first Toronto show. A first show in a brand new city for an unknown artist is an intimidating thing, but think of how much easier it would be if you arrived and found you already had fans there, who were already requesting favourite songs by name. So not only did they affect the people on this list, they made the infant stages of Jewel's professional career a bit easier for her, and in that way made it easier for Jewel to make a living doing what she loves... And of course, each of us who heard about Jewel told a dozen friends. And they told a dozen friends, and so on, and so on... :-) So their impact on Jewel's fanbase must be considerable. And finally, as you should all know by now, the excellent Jewel FAQ comes to us through Jeff and Neal. So Jeff may *say* he hasn't had much of an effect on this list, but don't believe him. He's one of the reasons this list exists, and why it is such a good one. And in a small but significant way, he has given a boost to Jewel and her career.

Touring with Dylan is one thing but videos and Letterman and Top 40 radio play and 120 Minutes and Mtv is something different. Not to imply that she is selling out at all, but I just don't want her to become a fad. Her video should never be played on MTV, VH1 is the place for the legitimate videos, MTV is commercial bullshit. I heard the horrible story just a couple of hours ago of how Z100 in New York is playing Who Will Save Your Soul. Z100 for those of you not from the NYC area is a detestable Top40/whatever is new and hot we play it type of station. I just don't want a legitimate singer/songwriter like Jewel to become a novelty item or commercialized product. There is grave danger of this happening in my opinion, especially because she is so camera-friendly and good-looking. Even legitimate groups are often stigmatized by commercial success(ie:Counting Crows) and this is something I don't want to happen to Jewel. She's a Joan Baez not an Alannis Morisette, a Joni Mitchell not a Mariah Carey, right? Just had to mention this all and spew forth my fear of losing Jewel to the rest of the world. Her type of music is detracted from as is her presence by fame and press and People fucking magazine and Z fucking 100 and MT fucking V, minimal fame is great, look at what it's done for Joan Osborne, but well, I don't know, if I was a big Joan Osborne fan I'd prob'ly be saying the same thing about her and becoming too popular. So, well, again, just getting some stuff off my chest. So don't recommend Jewel to your friends, change the station if you hear WWSYS on a shitty radio station, only watch the video if it's on VH1. I don't want to have to sift through a crowd of teeny-boppers who are shouting for WWSYS in the middle of Jewel's intro to My Own Private God' Gift to Women or the second verse of Race Car Driver when I go to see her this May. That's all.

I believe the guitar jewel used before the BLUE one was a Taylor 912-C, with MFRP of $3,498 (VERY EXPENSIVE!!!). I really like the sound of that guitar, especially it's a cutaway guitar. If you are a Gibson Les Paul lover, you know what I'm talking about. I own two guitars, an electric and acoustic. The electrical one is a Hohner (a Les Paul replica) and the other one is Charvel cutaway. I love them both very much. Well, I hope you find your own love(guitar) someday. >From: James McGarry >There's supposed to be a sort of newsletter that Jewel and her management >are putting together.

I have friends who are in the Cleveland/Akron area of Ohio who have the potential to get signed and it's a problem I've been wrestling with within myself. It's like sending your kid off to college. They seem to lose their intamacy. I know this from seeing my friends in a concert with twelve people and seeing them in a place where Pearl Jam played a few years ago after they just got big. You lose something special about being so close to the group or singer. It's something you really do wish to a talented artists. And in a selfish way you want to keep them to yourself, but you do want the world to appreciate her talent too. I saw Alanis last summer right before she got "super-big" and I got to shake hands with her actually, but now I don't believe i could ever again, until she became washed out and people forgot about her. So appreciate this time, because I know Atlantic is going to promote the hell out of her next albumn mark my words. Take it easy. - -- . . . . . . . . . . . .

So when you mail bomb the sender, contact the postmaster at his system, forward the message to abuse@ you aren't doing anything besides wasting your time and the time of the people you are contacting. 3) There are as many fake spams on the net as real ones. The intention of the fakes is to harrass regular users by sending out fakes posts listing them as the From person. A year ago someone sent out a bunch of Make.money.fast posts using the names of various members at my system (including me). I got several hundred flames, people tried to shut down my account, I have no idea how many messages were sent to the postmaster at my system, some people on usenet killfiled my system, and not only were the posts faked, they didn't even originate at my system, which brings us to point 4: 4) If you are going to appoint yourself netcop, at least have the technical knowledge required. Know how to look at the full headers, not just the ones displayed normally. There's a whole bunch of other info you need to know first, and without looking at the full headers you really don't know sh-t. For example, what machine the post actually originated at, how it reached the list, etc. Jason ------------------------------ From: Carter Navarro Date: Sat, 27 Apr 1996 02:25:51 -0700 Subject: Whiny & Depressing Post: Don't Read Me Ron Kantrowitz wrote: > I've noticed that when i talk to my friend all I spew out is > about Jewel. She thinks I'm a nut. The same thing happened to me last Wednesday. When someone asked a friend of mine who Jewel was, she replied "Carter's latest obsession and hard-on." A joke, of course, but when she asked me later if that comment was insulting, I said "not quite." Jokes carry truth, the truth shall set you free, and I am sorry to tell you all that the comment dealt a mortal blow to my obsession with Jewel Kilcher. The fascination was dying by then, already. The "too much of a good thing" proverb was fulfilling itself: Alternative Nation, Letterman, the excitement over the show at Bimbo's, my crazy amount of activity on this group, everything just overloaded and imploded. I'll record 120 Minutes, but I don't expect to watch it for a while. May 3 still has my name on it, so I hope my manic depression (no, I am NOT clinically diagnosed, though I may as well be) reverses itself before Tom and the rest have to meet my sullen alter-ego. The music is what matters, and I am still in love with that. Damn it, I'm just depressed. How about that, folks? Carter Navarro's first bummer of a post! No more cute comments for a while (maybe ever; Paul Kim staked the ground and should hold sole claim to it). I'm undergoing a minor guilt trip combined with the healthy but sad loss of a neurosis. Somebody cheer me up! Send me a chain letter full of the world's worst pick-up lines or a warning about the "Good Times" e-mail virus!

THIS IS ENTIRELY TRUE! Don't buy CDs through these clubs because they are geared to make the record company money, not the artist. When you buy a CD in the store you may only pay $13.00 - $20.00, but the actual list price of most CDs is about $23.00. The artist generally gets anywhere from $1.00- $3.00 from those record sales. When you buy a CD through a record club, the record company is selling the CD much below that cost to make their record sales numbers look better. Hell, when some records flop, or stop selling, I've heard that some record companies just throw out the excess CDs. Do you want to know the brutal truth? It only costs major record companies about 83 cents per CD to manufacture it. That's not including recording costs, and promotion, advertising, touring, etc., but hey, that means that the record company just wants to move CDs to look good on their books. So, the moral of the story is that record clubs suck for the artist, and are good for the record company. No artist, no matter how big and powerful makes any money from those record clubs. I am in school for the music business, and this IS the truth about it. Trust me.

Hi fellow 'netters, My name is Sally Ann Ellison and I recently started using a magazine subscription club in the USA that has a FREE 1 yr. magazine subscription deal with your first paid order- and I have been very pleased with them. They have over 1,500 different USA titles that they can ship to any country on a subscription basis. As for computer magazines from the USA, they more of a selection than I ever knew even existed. They have magazines for most every area of interest in their list of 1,500 titles. Within the USA, for their USA members, they are cheaper than all their competitors and even the publishers themselves. This is their price guarantee. Overseas, on the average, they are generally around one-fourth to one-half of what the newsstands overseas charge locally for USA magazines. On some titles they are as little as one-tenth of what the newsstands charge. They feel that mgazines should not be a luxury overseas. In the USA, people buy magazines and then toss them after reading them for just a few minutes or hours. They are so cheap in the USA! Well, this company would like to make it the same way for their overseas members. They are also cheaper than all their competitors in the USA and overseas, including the publishers themselves! This is their price guarantee. Around one-half their business comes from overseas, so they are very patient with new members who only speak limited English as a 2nd language. Their prices are so cheap because they deal direct with each publisher and cut-out all the middlemen. They will send you their DELUXE EMAIL CATALOGUE (around 525K-big and juicey) !)...if you completely fill out the form above. It has lists of all the freebies, lists of all the titles they sell, titles broken down by categories and detailed descriptions on nearly 1,200 of the titles that they sell. Please do not email me as I am just a happy customer and a *busy* student. I don't have time to even complete my thesis in time, let alone run my part-time software business! Please fill out the above form and carefully follow the intructions above to get it to them via fax or smail. They guarantee to beat all their competitors' prices. Sometimes they are less than half of the next best deal I have been able to find and other times, just a little cheaper - but I have never found a lower rate yet. They assured me that if I ever do, they will beat it. They have been very helpful and helped me with all my address changes as I haved moved from one country to another. They have a deal where you can get a free 1 yr. sub to a new magazine from a special list of over 295 popular titles published in the USA. They will give you this free 1 yr. sub when you place your first paid order with them to a renewal or new subscription to any of the over 1,500 different popular USA titles they sell. They can arrange delivery to virtually any country and I think they have clients in around 45 or 46 countries now. Outside the USA there is a charge for FPH (foreign postage and handling) (on both paid and freebie subs) that varies from magazine to magazine. I have found their staff to be very friendly and courteous. They even helped me with an address change when I moved from one country to another. The owner thinks of his service as a "club" and his clients as "members" (even though there is no extra fee to become a member - your first purchase automatically makes you a member) and he is real picky about who he accepts as a new member. When he sets you up as a new member, he himself calls you personally on the phone to explain how he works his deal, or sometimes he has one of his assistants call. He is kind of quirky sometimes - he insists on setting up new members by phone so he can say hi to everyone (I sure wouldn't want to have his phone bills!), but you can place future orders (after your first order) via E-mail. He has some really friendly young ladies working for him, who seem to know just as much as he does about this magazine stuff. If you live overseas, he will even call you there, as long as you are interested, but I think he still makes all his overseas calls on the weekends, I guess cause the long distance rates are cheaper then. He only likes to take new members from referrals from satisfied existing members and he does virtually no advertising. When I got set-up, they had a 2-3 week waiting list for new members to be called back so that they could join up. (Once you are an existing member, they help you immediately when you call. ) I think they are able to get back to prospective new members the same day or within a few days now, as they have increased their staff. I am not sure about this.........but if you email the above form to them, that is the way to get started! They will send you their DELUXE EMAIL CATALOGUE (around 525K-big and juicey) !)...if you completely fill out the form above. It has lists of all the freebies, lists of all the titles they sell, titles broken down by categories and detailed descriptions on nearly 1,200 of the titles that they sell. They then send you email that outlines how his club works and the list of free choices that you can choose from, as well as the entire list of what he sells; and then they will give you a quick (3-5 minute) friendly, no-pressure no-obligation call to explain everything to you personally and answer all your questions. Once you get in, you'll love them. I do.

Hi! Just a quick note to let you all know that I know of a place that you can get Jewel tickets for May 13 in Toronto a little cheaper than from Ticketmaster. A small Used/New CD Store called Sonic Temple sells tickets to shows at small venues, and they are carrying the Jewel concert for $12.00 INCLUDING all service charges. This is about a buck or two cheaper than all of the handling fees that ticketmaster charges. Just to let you know, this is not a paid ad or anything like that. I am a DJ in Toronto and I shop at this store quite frequently. They are nice guys, and when I discovered that they were selling tickets, I bought mine from them. I was very happy to save the money and give them the business. If you are interested Sonic Temple is at 5165 Yonge St. (a little north of Sheppard Ave.) If you tell them that Andrew from TNT Sound sent you, they'll be extra nice to you. I hope this note is of some help to those who want to go to the show, but don't want to feed the Ticketmaster monopoly beast directly!!
