For you Texans, Jewel has played in Texas before, but I ain't sure where. So I don't doubt that she will play there again when she tours. I don't know what the first cd I bought was. It was back in the seventh or eight grade, though, so it was probably some top 40 dreck like Michael Bolton or C&C Music Factory (all of which I've sold by now). Everybody Dance Now! My five essential cd's? Kinda like what I would take with me on a deserted island? Can I have ten instead? 1) Sarah McLachlan-Solace 2) Sarah McLachlan-Touch 3) Wild Strawberries- Heroine 4) JS Bootlegs 5) Susan Werner bootleg 6) Danny Elfman-Music for a Darkened Theater 7) Morrissey- Bona Drag 8) Something by Stravinsky. Anything. I need music to be crazy with. 9) Maria McKee- You Gotta Sin to Get Saved 10) Can I just have an endless mix tape with all the songs I want on it? Chris Pavek, I know who Hammerbox is and I have that cd. Is Chris from FTE still on here? I have too many cd's. I want more. I think I've lost my edge. Actually, Carter swiped it. That bastard:) Fortunately, I'm done for now.

So Jewel, join the hall of fame, coud be with the next album :) By the way I have searched the country (literally) has anyone seen POY on Vinyl????? I must buy it if it is available...

One of those cool "Top X" threads. First let me apologize to the masses that I don't (yet?) consider Jewel to be one of my five essential cds, but keep in mind that I'm still new to this, I'm learning! While I had several tapes borrowed/copied from my sister before it, I seem to vaguely recall that the first album I actually went into the record store and bought for myself was "Combat Rock" by The Clash. As for my "5 esentials", it'll be fairly obvious that I'm oriented more towards "Classic Rock" than most replies so far have tended to be; if the request had been for 5 essential Recent Albums Jewel'd be #1 for sure! In no particular order: Van Morrison "Astral Weeks" The Velvet Underground & Nico The Beach Boys "Pet Sounds" The Beatles "Help!" (or "Rubber Soul" or "Revolver" or "Abbey Road") The Rolling Stones "Let it Bleed" or maybe Bob Dylan "Blonde on Blonde" or even Big Brother & the Holding Company "Cheap Thrills" Ok, so that's seven. You should all be glad I didn't list 50!

My friend, Kim, said they are still moving them, but she thinks that nobody will have any trouble getting them. The number to call is 204-tixx. I don't know what the area code is. I will find out everything I can about the venue. Kim thinks we will have to stand through out. I am really excited to be taking both my children this time. Ryan, 11, who really is a race car driver (quarter dragsters) is thrilled to be going. Do you think it is tacky if I let him where my $#@ you, I'm sensitive shirt?

OK, first _album_ I ever bought was a compilation of Motown oldies (Supremes, 4 Tops, etc.). The first CD i ever got was given as a gift. It was Blind Melon (very good, btw). Top 5 CDs: 1. POY (duh-uh!) (and the boots I have) 2. Simon & Garfunkel's greatest hits 3. Dave Matthews Band - Under the Table and Dreaming 4. Beatles - Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band 5. Creedence Clearwater Revival - Chronicle I (greatest hits) Honorable Mentions-- Cream - Strange Brew (greatest hits) Cranberries - all three albums!! So there it is.

NJC Slunkers, whining away, but suddenly struck down by a flash of insight! : Well, I'm not sure if I have the general consensus with me on this one...but I've decided that the day before your birthday is the hardest to survive. Ugghh! I'm glad I have the list to give me some "unwinding" time...I had Trig homework I hadn't done, I had turned in the wrong Spanish assignment Monday and found this out when I got all but ONE problem wrong...( she'll let me get a late grade, have no fear )...In english we had a pop-quiz AND a test on Chaucer's Cantebury Tales... I had a spanish quiz, and during student congress ( debate II ), my MORON classmates actually passed a bill to legalize all drugs in order to reduce crime ( somehow they don't understand the idiocy in reducing crime by making everything legal ), and NOW in Student Congress, it looks like me and two other girls are going to be fighting a sea of hormonal imbalance during our speeches against the latest bill to legalize and regulate prostitution...Arrgg ( pardon me for sounding so much like a pirate here! =) ) Any way, I could tell it wasn't gonna be a good day, when you get that line: Just remember, this will be your last day on Earth as a ## year old... Well, that said...I found yet ANOTHER 9-19'er...So, to re-cap, Me ( Mac Rogers ), Pat Brown, Lawton Chiles ( NOT the governor ), Ms. Brooks ( Drama Teacher ), and Pat's old high school teacher buddy! I feel -thpeshul- ( Special )... Tomorrow will be the pinnacle day...Nothing penultimate about this folks...this is the end of the line!!! That's right...tomorrow, I can: Drive Sign up for JS Tapes Say it's my birthday Get my first Creative-Photography print done Get paid Get presents Get obnoxious Happy Birthday notes from my friends on the list...I'm WAITING!!! Pretend I know what I'm talking about... Well, I hope most of the same applies to all other 9-19'ers...whereever you are... OH, one more thing... I had this _GREAT_ Idea!!!! Once a month, every month, on the 22... ( The changing of the zodiac signs ) we hold a Monthly LURKER UNVEILED FESTIVAL Wherein, only Lurkers, urgent information, and JC posts can be submitted...kind of a coming out day to get more people involved in cluttering our mailbox... The reason for this is that I fear that we're pushing away some of our members into silence who might be helpful and informative, if not rather good company, to the list. Before everyone showers me with praise, consider the BAD implications of my idea...we would be taking the status quo and using it as toilet paper...we might cause threads that would force this list to fall apart. The world could stop revolving about its axis...
