I found out about the Everyday Angels at the Jewel concert in Columbus, OH this past March during the concert. I think it is a great medium, and I hope to meet all of you some day. But today I have brought some news of the London concert. I am currently in the Air National Guard as a Firefighter, and my two weeks annual training were done in Mildenhall England this year. And thanks to this list I found out that Jewel would be playing in London during my stay. The excitement I felt was great...it brought back that inner peace and the goose bumps that I felt during the first concert in Columbus. She played 2 places, the Cafe de' Paris(unfortunately I couldn't find a way to get tickets to it) and at Royal Albert Hall. The tickets were 16 pounds(current exchange rate was $1.67=1 pound) so it was about average for a concert ticket. She was the warm-up for Johnny Cash(nothing against Johnny,...but what is this all about?). So I found out that all the seats were sold out for Johnny(because the lady selling me the tickets had no clue who Jewel was playing), but there was standing available in the gallery....so I thought about it for a while..and Hell!!!... how often do you get a chance like this..so I got myself and a friend a ticket(I didn't tell him about her being the warm up for Johnny Cash....imagine his surprise...he doesn't even know a song that Johnny sings.) So now I will tell you about the concert itself. If you want to know more about my trip to London and all the events that led up to the concert feel free to continue reading after the concert review. Well an MC comes out on the stage(my standing seats are about four stories up but the view is awesome and it only seems like being in the balcony), he says something like "we have got a really great show lined up for this evening..." and he goes into a song and dance about Johnny and then introduces the American sensation from Alaska, blah, blah, blah....He jogs off the stage(if any one saw it any different,.. it is possible,....my memory isn't the greatest right after 4 pints of Irish brew, Beamish Red to be exact. I highly recommend it). She walks out in a very light lavender(like a faint lilac) silk blouse and black pants. The spot light made the blouse look silver, in many places. She makes her way up to the mic, the back of the stage lights up like the stars in a country night sky. She said something but their sound system in that place was not up to par with many of the systems here in the U.S.(or maybe it was the distance and the beer, but I don't think so). So I yell out "Jewel the EDA's from the America are here"(like she heard me) "We came 6,000 miles to see you!!!" She immediately goes into song subtly embracing the crowd with her angelic voice(so I sush up). I am new at this (and since a German girl who did an internship here at my company now has my Jewel POY CD) please forgive my ignorance of the titles of some of these songs(OK all of them). The first song was Soul piercing and awe inspiring, a lift to any spirit willing to listen. As the word Strange rings with the power of her Spirit a sullen soft deeper word follows(I am not sure what it was, like I said the sound system was to be desired). So I hope you know what that song is and with out trying to butcher my meager intelligence of the song titles anymore I will move on to the next song. For there was no real break in the action, she did not address the crowd as she did in the states, she didn't share the special thoughts that bless us all as Angels(some what disappointing but the audience was still thin waiting for JC). The next song I think was something like Little Sister(I had to write all this on my arm so I think that is what I wrote), followed by the Groovy "let's go back to bed". Unfortunately the crowd only seemed to be mesmerized by the embracing voice,... instead of embracing it as well and sharing in the fun. Next was "Please don't hurt me"...that feeling of being a little girl(or boy) and vulnerable as a child travels through me as I hear that in her voice. Next was a song I did not really recognize...all I could catch was "Sorry I loved you...Sorry I _____" and I am sorry they didn't have a better sound system. Even with my hands to my ears, cupping them like a child trying hear your parents down stairs.... After that she said "I am from Alaska and I would like to Thank you for having me here tonight...." She then rolls into Save Your Soul with just her voice and an acoustic guitar...what gifts she has........ the ability to touch us so intimately reaching in and touching ones soul if will let her. She can put you on a journey and help you to understand how thoughts and believing can manifest into reality. And she can do it with all her songs..... just open you up..the inner peace...the goose bumps....the warmth....and all of you who have seen her perform know exactly what I mean. So with her inner strength she pulls out a note "who will save yourrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr(I think she held it for 8-10 seconds) ripping through the crowd,...showing herself and abilities in one single note.........She is unbelievable. She finishes up the song with a marvelous applause...The background spotlights have been dark Purple, light purple and blue up to this point....The flash of Red really grabs your attention as it rests between the makeshift star filled sky and her soft lavender blouse...you can feel what is to come (for those of you who saw the tour and could feel it as the chapel windows appeared in the sky you know).....with out introduction she goes into her good night song...the ballad she wrote to put her self to sleep the Angel standing by. It is such a simple and beautiful song it felt like you could put your arms around it and hold on...and everything would be all right. And for the final song........the winner is????? Yep "Chime Bells" It left them slack jawed....So we clap, we scream and she casually walks off stage. And here is Johnny.....we listened to one song and decided the rest of our evening would be better spent back at Finnigan's Wake...the Pub where we started earlier....a total of 10 pints a peace...not a bad evening(the pub closed at 11:00) I would love to write more but is 10:00pm and I am still at work...I need to go home...Love and share with others...until I write again. I hope it is leagible because I am not proof reading...bye all ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 28 Apr 1997 22:37:06 -0400 From: agalinanes@microjuris.com (Angel M.

I just have to say that the Gorge is the BEST!!!!!!!! place to go to a concert!!! I encourage ANYONE in driving, flying, bussing, or walking distance to go to this show. The gorge is sooooo beautiful, and it is the best place I've EVER had the privledge of going to see a concert (in case anyone's interested I saw Steely Dan there). Anyways I just thought I'd make a shameless plug for the Gorge. Jewel in this setting would be sooooo wonderful. Its situated right in the middle of nature, and that I think would be the greatest place to view Jewel. And even though the venue has over 20,000 seats, and wouldn't be very intimate, it would be such a great show!!! I think ANYONE who can go should. I would, but da**** I can't take that time off. Anyways, I think you have my views!! Have a great day everyone!! :) Julie PS for anyone who was convinced to go, tickets are going on sale on Saturday, and my guess is it will fill up kinda fast, so if you plan on going decide now. bye. <> ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 29 Apr 97 09:31:11 PST From: "Bethany Thompson" Subject: Re[2]: Jewel/Austrailia >buy the album get a free tshirt, etc etc. Of course, this is only NZ, those >on the west island may not have caught up with our beloved lady yet. West island???? You mean Australia right?? he he. That made me laugh. Made us sound like a part of NZ. ha ha. I haven't seen any deals like that here yet. I do know that PoY was being given away on a radio station late last year and I saw a stand full of PoY at some stage in northern New South Wales, but that's it. That was all around the time of her promotional tour. Haven't seen the YWMFM video yet. Maybe things will pick up when she tours here properly. Bands less known than Jewel tour here all the time, I think. And some bands come out on the strength of one song, namely the Cardigans. There is hope.

We get a lot of American TV but not VH1. ha ha. I didn't even know what that was until I joined this list and someone told me. (thanks James:-) I think we just got an Australian version of MTV on pay-tv (kind of like cable I think) but paytv isn't in a large percentage of households yet. We probably sound backward for a big country. Oh well. Jewel isn't well known here. I've met a few who know WWSYS or YWMFM but basically, like Sarah Mc and others, there just isn't the coverage. My prediction is they'll play WWSYS for a while and even YWMFM and then she will fade until another big single comes out. Bummer I know but we just get the biggest of your acts here. Live are playing here next week and the country is down with Live fever. Jewel fever certainly hasn't struck yet which is sad.

A lot of people responded to my post about the gathering for this Sunday. Even with such a short notice, many people are finding the time. I still have free tickets to give away for the VIP lunch. You may be surprised by some of the invited guests. So many of you wanted to find a way to be a part of this special event but are just too far away. This is a perfect time to buy an EDA poster since Larry is donating a dollar from every one sold to JPK. He is also bringing one with him to be signed by all EDAs attending. At some point Jewel will also get to sign that very poster for James. RARE RUGBURNS RAFFLE!!!!! I am donating a rare Rugburns 12" vinyl LP of Taking the World by Donkey. It was only available as a promotional item. This is how you can get to own it. First read "The EDA Gift" post that Crunch posted. Fill in a check as instructed and make it out to the James Kalanick Trust. But you will be sending it to me. DO NOT MAKE THE CHECK OUT TO ME! The check should be in any amount with each $1 worth one chance to win. You can send a check for as much as you like. The more you send the better your chances to win. But even if you only send a dollar, you might win. For every dollar please include a 3x5 card with your name on it. We will do a drawing Sunday for the winner. You don't have to be present. All the checks will be presented to James in full. If you are afraid that the check won't get there in time, send an email with the check number and amount to me. I'll cover the checks but won't announce the winner until next Saturday. Only checks that have been received by then will qualify. So send your checks right away. I might even get Larry to donate as second prize an 8x10 that he took of the Rugburns at the Casbah. But who would want a picture of Steve Poltz's bare butt anyway? Does anyone else have similar ideas. Please lets make this a tremendous success.

Just another great tidbit of info for RockFest in Dallas. As I mentioned earlier, I heard on a local radio station that Paula Cole was going to be at the RockFest in June. It Keeps Getting BETTER!! I work with a girl who dates Zac the lead singer of the Nixons. She jsut told me today that their record company guy was talking to a DJ at the EDGE in Dallas (the biggest Alternatinve Radio staton in Dallas) and they wondered why the Nixons weren't playing at the festival. The guy at the EDGE called someone at BlockBuster and said that they were the biggest regional band of the area and wanted them to be in it and it was approved. So what I am trying to say is that you can add the Nixons to the repatoir 8) Farr ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 29 Apr 1997 01:02:09 -0400 From: Akira Subject: NJC: Guitars I am considering buying a guitar for myself and would like some input = from you people.
