Wow...This is what continues to amaze me about this list... Mere hours ago, posts were flying back and forth... Accusations were made... and now, a man has apologized, and thanked those who educated him... It's nice to know that manners do still have a place on the net. Bravo Chad, for you do indeed show grace that is all too rare.. And now, I would like to address some of our other newcomers to the list. To paraphrase an old post of Dennis', we do things differently here. Some of these things may seem odd, or even nonsensical, but please, trust that there is a reason to all these things. If you think you disagree, please ask before you judge us. You may come to understand something you had not considered. Each of us is a unique individual, which means there is much that can come between us, but there is also much we can learn. If arguments sometimes seem to flare up suddenly, it is because people care, very passionately, for this community we have built for ourselves. Do not think us mean-spirited, rather, we are group spirited. When one of us appears to be attacked, we all feel hurt. We have laughed together, and nearly gone mad together, though only a few have showered together. ;) (And I know, I made some grammatical and spelling errors in my other post.

I know it said this because at first i was appalled then i reread it and realzied he probably didn't mean any harm. Maybe everyone should just chill out. Give the guy a break. I'm sure he has had a fair share of mail about this. This is just my 2cents on the whole thing.

He had zero idea what you were doing and he acted VERY appropriately based on what he knew. Personally, I had doubts that there was an auction (which is why I held off on posting till now), but was never 100%. You said yourself that you originally wanted to give the CD to an EDA who missed your question because that person would probably be new to Jewel, like we all once were. However, then you decided to find out who was willing to spend the most money to buy the CD, a complete contrast to someone who is fairly new to Jewel. Based on this, Dennis and everyone else who spoke against the auction were very correct in blasting the idea of an auction. Even you yourself disagree with an auction. You gots no one to blame for the flame.

Oh well = one more try. Hi Angels, (Hope this wasn't too long. I apologize if it was or you guys = don't like it) My car broke down and since I'm such a good worker my boss gave me the = day off to get it fixed. Now I'm really on vacation.. It's a = Winnie the Pooh blustery day outside, gray and rainy. Yuk! I guess I'm just bored, nobody to play with. Maybe I'll just close my = eyes and dream for a bit. Want to come along? Hey. Let's pretend this = was written by all of us. Okay, close your eyes and pretend we've = magically transported ourselves over 3000 miles away, to the left coast. = I live on the right coast . We're standing in front of the = door of, well, you know who. Let's see if she's home. Knock, Knock. The door opens. Hi Jewel, can you come out and play? She smiles that little girl smile of hers, she's such a Jewel. Do I know you she says, but something in her voice, or maybe in her eyes = says she not quite sure. She seems puzzled, now where have I seen this = little boy before, she wonders. You want to come out and play for a while? The smile brightens for a moment, then she looks sad. I really can't, I = have so many things to do, Ah, come on, just for a little while. Pretty please. She looks behind her, as if to see if anyone is watching. She looks at = us again and says, you look so familiar.=20 We look into her eyes and smile, so do you. She pauses to think for a moment and then says, ah why not, let's go. You burst into a gigantic smile and shout great! She runs out of the front door with you. You hold her hand tightly in = yours. You look in her eyes and say, hold on and instantly your flying through = the clouds. She screams with surprise or was that a squeal of delight? You hold her = hand tightly and say, don't worry I won't let go. Your thousands of feet = in the air looking down at the earth passing below. She's smiling now and it's like being next to the sun, almost to = brilliant to look upon. She looks over at you, wonder and delight in her = eyes. I used to do this she says, I used to dream I was an Eagle, that I = could see far above and far beyond. I know, you say and she smiles, her checks blush, just a little? Where are we going she says? Where would you like to go? Heaven, and her eyes look upward. You look at her and your heart melts with her innocence, her beauty. You call her softly, not wanting to break the moment, Jewel? She looks at you and again that feeling washes over and through you, = like falling forever. Look down, see the world passing below us? She looks down, it's so beautiful, so peaceful from up here. That's heaven Jewel, right there all along. Sometimes we just forget. She looks over at you and smiles. Who are you she asks, her words soft, = nearly a whisper. You look into her eyes, A friend. The moment seems to last forever, looking into each others eyes. Time = stops. Something so familiar she thinks. Like a shadow lingering at the = edge of a memory. You look back into her eyes and smile, say nothing. = What is there to say. You'd wish the moment to last forever but know like all things it is = fleeting. You break away from her eyes, like tearing away from your own = soul. Feeling a little less complete, as if a fire once blazing, now = only embers. You look back at her face but not into her eyes, for you know you would = probably never return. You smile and say to her, you've really made some = waves down there. Her eyes linger upon you for a moment more and then lower to look upon = the Earth. She smiles. Your words and your music make people happy you know. She looks back up at you, just a little too quickly, as if something = were about to slip away, something she longed for but never truly = believed. Oh yes, you say. You've touched their minds and their hearts. You = reminded them everyday just how special they really are. You sing and = your voice touches the angel within them. You free them to be what they = always wanted to be, Everyday Angels, each and every day. She looks back down and you see her lips smile but doubt makes them = tremble just slightly. You see that she wants to believe but is still = unsure. You see the face of an angel troubled and your heart aches to = make it smile again. Jewel, look at me, you've raised your voice just slightly, your eyes, = more focused, more intent. She looks up and waits for you to speak. She = looks so vulnerable, like a little girl that lost her way. You look into = her eyes deeper then ever before. Jewel, there are people down there = living as neighbors, side by side and have never spoken a single word to = each other. Not even to say hello. The world is a hard place at times = and has beaten the wind out of many an angels wings. They raise barriers = between them. They keep themselves locked safely behind them. Your words are like a sword that cuts through those barriers. They are a = little jewels of brightness in a world gone gray. The everyday Angels = your words have touched are separated by thousands of miles. Yet = something broke down those barriers. Something broke through the = hardness of their hearts and made them do something remarkable indeed. = It made them say hi to one another. All they really needed was something = in common to believe in and to dream about again. That something was = you. You gave them the most precious thing you have, yourself. To them, = you truly are a Jewel. The Jewel that lives within their hearts. You = made that Jewel to sparkle again. You cared for and believed in them. = With that as your weapon you could not have helped but to slay their = hearts. She's looking at you intensely now. There is fire behind her eyes, = something rekindled. Makes you want to be a moth, knowing full well the = price all moths pay, to play near such fire. You look at her and say, it's time to go back home now Jewel, we've = played long enough for today. She looks sad and gazes down at the Earth for one last time. I don't = come up here enough anymore she says sadly to herself. You look at her and smile, you're a very grown up and busy girl now = Jewel. But never forget, that we all need to go outside and play once in = a while. She doesn't say anything, just looks at you and smiles, that little girl = smile again. Perfection. Jewel, one last thing before you go. Never grow tired of being angry = just always direct that anger at the right target. Anger is often = confused with passion for they are forged from the very same fire. It's = wrong to be angry at another. It's not wrong to feel anger at hunger or = poverty, or injustice. These are the ancient and powerful enemies of all = Angels. Remember that evil can only exist when good does nothing. = Sometimes there are Angels who arise and lead the others into battle. = When that happens the world becomes a better place for all the children = who will be born into her. It is the good fight my Lady. All it requires = is the gift of reaching others and the passion to believe you can. I = believe you can and so do all these other Angels around you. Let them = know just how passionate you can really are. Never let them forget that = the Fire Jewel is the most beautiful Jewel of all. Time to go home now. You slowly float down, her feet gently touch the ground. You smile and = saying jokingly, there's no place like home. Ah, there's that little = girl smile again upon her face. She turns and opens the door stepping = inside. You turn to leave and you here her call out from behind. She = looks at you closely, her eyes searching for what, even she doesn't = know. Finally she says, who are you, have we met before? You look at her face, into those questioning eyes and think you have = never seen something so lovely. You pause and finally say, I'm just a = friend, that got bored on a rainy day. Have we met before? Well, now you = have something to keep you from getting bored on those rainy days. Only = you know the answer to that. Don't be afraid to ask yourself. Next time = you dream. Maybe we've played before some time, long ago or yet to come. = You turn and walk away, but you don't here the door shut behind you. Not = turning around is the hardest thing you have ever had to do. Each step = you take you feel the fire only a moment ago so hot, decreasing by = degrees. It's as if you were a flame drifting farther and farther away = from it's source. You don't understand, you cannot put such things into = words. You know only that somewhere behind, the other half of you = exists. Your eyes slowly open, the dream ends. Or has it merely paused?

I have a question about the Webcast Jewel Concert... It is April 4th at 11:00 p.m. with the Philidelphia show and then Jewel plays at 12:00 midnight (eastern standard time) and it is viewed with Steamworks. Well, anyway, we have two computers at our house. One has ISDN (with a charge of $.02 per minute) and one with 28.8. Is it worth it to view it with ISDN? It would only be $1.20 per hour so if it is better quality, I'll probably go that way. Any advice?

I don't see how you could possibly be in a position to be pointing the finger at someone else(especially a Harris Bros.) He has been on this list since the beginning and here you are trying to make him look bad. This from a guy who was looking to auction off a Jewel cd.

I've been in such a good mood after the St. Louis and Kansas City concerts, that not even this *#!!&*(!! about auctioning off 'Save the Linoleum' or making CD's can mess it up. I'm gonna take just a second to say that although some of the 'newbie' list members might get a 'not-so-great' (alright, alright, how about VILE?) idea, it's up to the veterans to show them the error of their ways, preferably nicely... being an angel goes both ways. I'm sure that some of the new list members are unaware of the etiquette of the list, and especially of THIS list, where we have some (if not direct) connection with the artist that we all support... Let's just all take a second to think about what we do before we do it, and ask if we are helping or other EDA's by what we post... simple and easy... and when we do screw-up.. take it like an EDA. As far as the concerts go, I didn't get a chance to see the cellist at either the STL (st. louis, not save the linoleum) or the KC shows, as he was already back with Lyle Lovett, I guess... but the bass and drum work by Stinky and John Castro of the Rugburns was both fun to watch, and great to listen to. Jewel's KC set was awesome... my only complaint... I talked to the Rugburns at both St. Louis and KC, and both times I forgot to bring my CD's to the concert to get signed. I think I'm getting a little hair-brained... Peace, love, joy, and common sense (about list etiquette) Love you all, Rev. P.S.

I have run into a couple of you already today and was able to share the two poems with you, but it's different to read what I have written right in front of me and to sit there and think about it... ...so pelase, honest honest feedback?!? really...even if all you have toosay is "Stephanie, it sucks...stop writing your poetry, get your head out of the clouds," as long as it is THE TRUTH, I really want to hear it... ..oh and by the way both poems have no titles...just thought I would let you know... ***this first one is kinda sad, so if you are in a good mood and you think maybe this could have an effect on you, well, then save it for another day... by Stephanie Maria Kartalopoulos She walks blindly in the sunlight, her soul in the prison which she has created. And it all happened when he hurt her. when he tried to take away her livelihood, to rip open her soul. With tears in her eyes and a tornado in her brain she left him and she refused to leave behind her severed soul her sore legs her bruised body. She died that day-he killed her- even though he didn't quite get all that he wanted from her, all because "that bitch" refused to let him destroy beauty. The memory of those hours when the sun abandoned her has turned her into a ghost. Her eyes hollow, Her wal robotical, Her voice empty, her smile nonexistent. She is dead If you apss her as you walk in the broad daylight please don't turn your head even if she may not notice you, even if she may seem to look through you. It's her, not you, who feels invisible, who feels dejected, who feels estranged from what we know- happiness love bliss joy. Life. (the end) **OK, now here is the second poem...this one is happier, sorta *cute* and stuff...give me your HONEST fdeedback... by Stephanie Maria Kartalopoulos I love starry nights and museums and good cappucino. I love folk music and fingerpainting and oatmeal cookies. And sometimes I think how there's no fragrance as beautiful as that of a freshly cut daffodil. I need warm hugs and lots of words and caring people. I need your love and your kiss and your eyes taking me in. And sometimes I dream about your kiss and how soft and gentle it would be, like delicate gardenia petals. I cry when you hurt me and when I think of Kathleen and when I'm scared. I cry when I stand alone in the rain and when I see a sad movie and sometimes for no reason at all. And sometimes I burst in a smile when I see the sun shine down on me and fill up my soul with the belief that I am beautiful smart special important loved.

He says now that he was going to see who gave him the highest monetary offer to see who was "the biggest Jewel fan" and then sell it to them for his cost only anyways... First off let me say, having money does NOT Make someone more deserving of STL or a bigger Jewel fan... If I had participated in his little auction I could have only spared MAYBE MAYBE MAYBE 50 bucks... that's only if i pulled the change from the couch cushions out... Does that make me love Jewel any less or make me less worthy of the CD? I sure hope not... As far as I know, that's not what this list is about.. it's not competing to see who's the biggest fan, it's just a way for us to communicate to each other and discuss Jewel ...

My name is Laura and I just subscribed to the list. It's a little different than I had expected. everyone seems to be fighting and talking about non-Jewel related things. Just a quick note: everyone of us should know that Jewel is a huge advocate for peace and that she feels that getting along with others is very important in life. We should all know better than to waste our time fighting, life is too short. I know we can't always get along, but I think it would be really nice if we could try. Alright that was my little speech on peace. How can I go about getting a copy of the JewelStock concert? I would be very interested and I promise that I would follow all of the rules listed. Anyways, I just saw Jewel in Minneapolis about a week ago. It was the most wonderful experience that I have ever had! All of the stories she told were great and she sounded so beautiful!!! Angel Standing By had to have been my favorite. Also, the Rugburns ruled! Does anyone know if Jewel is planning to go on tour again after the release of her 2nd alnum? Also, any ideas on how to meet her or get backstage passes? I would be very interested in finding out! Well thanks for listening if you got this far!!

It was his friend's. He didn't know what to do and just took a friend's advice. He just made a mistake, and I think he knows it now. I bet he's pretty tired of everyone saying that it's wrong to auction it off, so let's all please just let this go. It's been said a billion times already. I think he's gotten the message.

On one of our local radio stations (which never played Jewel until the grammys btw) they have this little taped segment (it's just a about a minute long) that they do every day called the Edge music news. So I was listening to it, and they started talking about Jewel on Mediadome! They said all the features of it and stuff, and then the dj said "so, do you think Jewel is getting just a LITTLE bit of overexposure? ...alright, I admit it I'm just jealous." This same dj also pointed something out a few weeks ago that I thought was kinda funny. In YWMFM, she was talking about the line "put on my pjs and hop into bed" and she said "well, you know when I'm in a bad mood like that I don't think I'll be hopping into anything. It's more like drag yourself up into bed." Ok, just wanted to share that w/ all of you, in case anyone really cares. :) *hugs* Emily ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 26 Mar 1997 22:12:22 EST From: jewelfan1@juno.com (Liz A Clark) Subject: NJC: Deep Breath Breathe in, breathe out, breathe in, breathe out...that's it, now fall into a deep relaxing sleep.

I haven't... It's certainly a good principle that no one should scalp tickets or CDs -- and hopefully no one on this group will. But sometimes there can be an over-reaction, even with everyone acting with the best of intentions. It's good to remind people of their responsibilities and the need to maintain the integrity of Jewel's (and management's) wishes. It truly is a special and privileged position that the EDAs find themselves in being able to share tapes etc. Is there really a problem of any magnitude here? A month or two back one person posted that they would sell a concert ticket for as much as they could get -- and they received the appropriate responses from other EDAs explaining that was not cool. All other tickets posted for sale that I've seen have been at cost. The only other instance of anyone mentioning scalping was in connection with a NCAA basketball ticket. As far as audio and video materials go, there was the controversy a month or so back involving the fellow from Toronto who was pitching a video of Jewel's T.O. concert for $22. That also was dealt with by EDAs. More recently, a member of this list offered for sale a Save the Linoleum CD for $40 -- explaining that he'd paid $35 and was asking an extra $5 to cover shipping/handling. This same EDA has offered to make free copies of STL and other Jewel material for EDAs -- and, in fact, is doing that. That's hardly the pattern of a person who is out to exploit other people and take advantage of a situation. If he picked up a copy of STL and wants to cover his costs -- what's unreasonable about that? As I understand the posts, the auction idea only came up as a result of his receiving an overwhelming number of requests so it was a way to pick one person out of the whole bunch -- obviously, the idea of an auction to the highest bidder rubs a lot of people the wrong way. But as I recall the last posts on the subject, he was going to make an arrangement with someone who had Shiva Diva Doo Wop (correct name I'll have to go back and look). Anyway, it doesn't look like much of a capitalist scheme. If there have been other problems or controversies, I must have missed reading some posts. So if the only scalping even proposed (and not executed) on this list comes down to one concert ticket and one video tape - -- considering the great number of EDAs, then this is more a sign that things are well with the group, rather than an indicator that things are spinning out of control and will be approaching the scale of the Lincoln bedroom rates if allowed to go unchecked. Maybe some more trust, consideration of others' positions and a positive attitude will help defuse what appears to be a bomb no bigger than a lady-finger. ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 26 Mar 1997 22:48:52 -0500 (EST) From: Hersheys98@aol.com Subject: Re: jewel-digest V2 #218 Hi everyone. I'm new and I just wanted to say how nice everyone has been to me. Thanks guys and gals! You're all great. Also I wanted to say that I just went to my first Jewel concert on March 20, 1997 in Chicago. It was soooooo Kewel! :) I even got to met her afterwards (very brieftly) which was a dream come true to me. I'll write again soon. I love you all! {{{{{{{everyone}}}}}}} Sarah ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 26 Mar 1997 19:52:16 -0800 From: "Victor Igor Wasylczenko" Subject: RE: Jewel/Steve/Clothes/Recycle >Anyone else notice how Steve & Jewel like to recycle clothes? Yes it's been noticed before. A singer from San Diego, Elizabeth Hummel sings about it in a song inspired by Jewel and Steve. It is called "The Goodwill Store". It is found on her CD -The Cauldron. She is a friend of both Jewel and Steve. Steve also sings on the song. More news! Look for Elizabeth Hummel to soon be distributed by a new label possibly called EDA Records.
