What does the saying, "We are loved beyond our ability >to comprehend." mean?>> My interpretation - As human beings we are restricted in our understandings of htings, by education, experience and so on. The concept of love is so vast, so enormous that we can only understand a tiny part of what it may mean. Put all of humanity's knowledge and understanding all together and love, in it's strength and greatness, will still surpass it. Basically, love is greater and more complex than we could ever understand.

Jérémie ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 1 Apr 1999 01:07:42 +0800 From: "Jean" Subject: Jewel concert review Hello!! Long post ahead!!! I just got back from the Jewel concert, and it's about 1am over here! The concert lasted a total of 3 hours and 20 minutes! It started at 8 pm and ended at 11.20 pm. And the concert ROCKED! Steve opened the show and everybody loved him! He did um, 5 songs I believe, I don't have the setlist with me at the moment, but I remember him doing Everything About You, 26, The Star Wars song, Silver Lining and one other song.... Oh yeah! The Chair Song... I think he just wrote it or something... Everybody was totally singing along to the Star Wars song :-) About 15 minutes after Steve's set ended, Jewel came out solo, singing 'Near You Always', which just brought the house down. Oh and yeah!!! Her musicians, Steve included, were wearing silk pajamas on stage. They had bought them in Chinatown and were wearing them proudly. I didn't notice it until my friend, Sean, pointed it out to me. And later during one of the encores, Jewel's drummer came out, wearing a turban! I honestly can't remember the exact songs she did, but I know somebody is going to post them soon :-) Harin has the whole set list. I met her during the concert, and she's a doll! Okay, one thing I do have to admit is that the concert started off kind of slow. Everybody was sitting down, *but* cheering along. Jewel told the pot story to YWMFM, which the crowd loved :-) The fun part of the concert started when she played 'Down So Long', I think after that, she had everybody from the back go to the front, squeezing in... I was in one of the first rows of the blocks, so I got blocked and I leapt onto my chair with my friend. So if there are any Singaporean EDAs, I was the girl dressed in a blue top, jeans, standing next to a girl dressed in pink. We were the ones jumping up and down screaming our heads off. Jewel then did um, 'Who Would Save Your Soul', 'Down', 'Love Me, Leave Me Alone' (?), which everybody went wild over. Everybody was dancing around. Then Jewel left, and came back to do 'Absence of Fear', and 'Angel Standing By'. Finally her second encore was 'Chime Bells', which again, everybody went mad over. Overall, the concert was amazing, and my friend was just yelling to me how great it was :-) The only gripe I had was that there were NO merchandise!!! None at all!!! The only things being sold there were the CDs, no programs anything, so I was very disappointed. MrBB? Is there any possible chance of me buying the programs online? Oh and yeah, Steve signed my One Left Shoe CD :-) Okay, let's see if I can recall the songs that she did... not in order... Near You Always Who Will Save Your Soul Foolish Games Morning Song You Were Meant For Me Angel Standing By Deep Water Hands What's Simple Is True Down So Long Innocence Maintained Jupiter Enter From the East Barcelona Life Uncommon Absence of Fear Down Love Me, Leave Me Alone The Cold Song Chime Bells Enough for now!!!

California information Hi Everybody, I'll be closing this AOL account April 2nd. I've gotta find some other company to use thats pretty cheap :) For the last 2 years its been really awsome to watch this mailing list evolve into something really cool. I haven't met many EDAs in the time that I've been here, but I get to meet more after I log back on. I'm going to be entrusting Jason Verling to pass on the Living Room Concert information, since I've been working with him to have it at his house. I talked to him on Mon. about how screwy everything is over there, but his ISP should be working. Just so everybody knows, I'm trying to go for Thursday or Friday afternoon/evening(probably Fri.). Keep your fingers crossed! :-) See you EDAs around GpA - Guitar playin Angel signing off Alex ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 1 Apr 1999 01:25:32 +0800 From: "Jason Cheow" Subject: Jewel's concert in Singapore - my recollections First of all... What a Wonderful Concert!! :) I was having dinner and got into the Habour Pavilion a little late. By the time I got in, Steve Poltz had already started. When I was ushered to my seat, I was shocked to see that a speaker was in the way of my view of the stagea and I couldn't really pay attention to what was going on-stage as people were still streaming in. When I settled down, Steve was talking about what he saw in the auditorium earlier before the concert, it was something about a chair being taken away because it had a hole in it. He then dedicated a Chair song to that chair and all the chairs all over the world, which was really funny. It went something like: "I'm a chair, don't you care..." After that, he said he was going to sing a song from his album, One Left Shoe, which he said wasn't available in Asia and had to be ordered through the Internet. That isn't exactly true, 'cause I got my copy of it from Borders. Anyway, he went on and sang Silver Lining (he talked about John Krug and why the reference to "limp around"), Kicking Distance, and some other songs which I can't really remember. Of course, he did the Star Wars song and got us to do the Chewy grunt, to which he shouted halfway through the song: "You guys are even better than Australia and New Zealand!". He did mentioned how he was nervous before the concert 'cause he heard that the Singapore crowd were the quiet kind but I guess what he heard was wrong... All in all, Steve was great, and the crowd loved him. I was disappointed that he didn't sing I Thought I Saw You Last Night with Jewel though. Alright, now for Jewel... :) She came on and sang Near You Always, before proceeding to Deep Water, What's Simple Is True and then Hands. At this point I was going: "Hey, isn't this the order of the songs on the CD?" I was kinda thinking the next song would have been Kiss the Flame! :) At the end of Hands, my cousin spotted a few seats which had a better view, so we managed to moved to those seats and we got a much much better view of Jewel. Okay, she didn't sing Kiss the Flame next... but went on to Jupiter. I then got to hear the whale watching story for the first time, after which You Were Meant For Me was sung. Umm, my memory cells has only enough power to recall the order of the songs up to this point :) After the end of one of the songs, Jewel got the band to assemble together in the center with her and they were all wearing traditional chinese costumes! It was really cool... Jewel also talked about how she met Steve. And about her being like the girl in Friends... "What's her name?" she went, before the crowd shouted "Phoebe!". She then asked us to call Polygram or the radio stations to try to make Steve famous in Asia because she wanted to prove Polygram wrong when they almost didn't allow Steve to perform in Asia stating the reason that he wouldn't be famous in Asia. Err... I'm now scanning through my brain, to see what can be salvaged from there. Well, what I get right now are Who Will Save Your Soul, Morning Song, Chime Bells, Cold Song (before the song, she said she was going to sing a serious, philosophical song, and when she started singing, everyone in the audience laughed), Enter From The East, Innocence Maintained, Barcelona (which she sang very very well... I absolutely loved it. The girl in front of me even teared!), Down So Long, Life Uncommon, Foolish Games... and a lot more I'm sure. Well, after Down So Long (I think), she did the same as she did in a few concerts in Australia, and got us to go to the front, which I did, before singing a couple of songs which I haven't heard of before. And if I didn't hear wrongly, she mentioned that those were new songs. At this point, I couldn't catch a glimpse of Jewel at all and my eardrums were a little hurt because I was right in front of the amps. But the guy in front of me moved away and I got a pretty clear view of Jewel (about 10 people away), so that sorta soothed my ears. Ah, and she did this thing with the guitarist, Doug Pettibone, where she sang a few notes and Doug had to echo them on his guitar. She eventually went so high that the guitar couldn't match her at all! It was hilarious... Doug then started playing the low notes on his guitar and went so low until Jewel said "I can't go any lower!" :) Geez, this is getting pretty long eh? Umm, I can't remember what she ended the concert with but came out for her encore singing Absence of Fear and Do You before going backstage again. But the crowd wasn't about to leave yet, so she came out again and said "You people are so nice", and went on to sing a-song-which-I-can't-name (again?!) and then said she was gonna yodel. The crowd cheered loudly, and she asked "You sure you know what yodelling is?"... "Yes!!!" went the crowd. She was looking a little skeptical (smiling) that we really knew what yodelling was and just said "Ok!" (still smiling) before starting to yodel. The concert thus ended here. But there's one more incident which I can't recall (again?!?!) at which point to write, so I'll do it here: she passed the mike to a girl in the audience and that girl shouted "I love you Jewel!!!" and screamed really loudly into the mike. Jewel then took the mike back from her and said "I think that's quite enough already" or something to that effect... Thus ends my recollection of my first ever Jewel concert. It was great, and that's an understatement. I'm already looking forward to my next Jewel concert the next time round she tours. Ok, note that the events above aren't chronologically exact at all (blame it on this lousy brain of mine). And if any others who had been to see the concert has anything correct me about, please go ahead :) regards, Jason ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 31 Mar 1999 15:47:05 EST From: Tlcathome@aol.com Subject: NJC: a pointless post Just a pointless post about nothing in particular..... So, if you're not interested in my musings and chatter, delete now :-Ţ I just felt like posting on this beautiful spring day because it's days like this that I appreciate life. It's so easy to start feeling a bit down and cut off from friends during the fall and winter, especially since gatherings basically stop during that time. Then spring comes along and we not only see the return of some of natures most spectacular gifts, but we also tend to see the return of EDA(F) gatherings! This spring (and summer) will, of course, be no exception. We have at least one EDAF gathering coming up at the end of April, likely another Great EDAdventure in late May or early June, the Bearsville camping trip in July, and then there is the tour, which always brings pre-show get togethers. I don't know about the rest of you, but I'm practically bursting with the anticipation of seeing old friends and meeting new ones. I suppose I'm simply having a case of the ol' EDA withdrawals!!!! Anyway, I expect to see many of you at these gatherings! And that's an order from your EDA mommy!! OK, I'll stop rambling now and get my butt outside to enjoy this practically perfect day with my children, who are probably terrorizing the neighborhood by now :-) Huggles to you all!!! Tammy :-) PS - Ahmetia's b-day is April 6, and I'm sure she'd love b-day wishes in her e-mail for those of you who've met her - it's hard to believe she's 10 now! Her e-mail is Ahmetia@aol.com :-) ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 31 Mar 1999 22:58:21 +0100 From: Boyd Subject: Re: spirit question >Someone wrote: > >><>"Spirit" album.

This may be a really stupid question, but I was wondering, I always read in FAQ things that "Little Sister" and "Daddy" aren't about thoses respective people, but then they say the song about Nikos is-what song about Nikos? I know who he is, but I don't know this song they speak of. Also, in the "Down so Long" video, after the part where she sings "and like cattle we all stand" is it just me, or does it look like she mouths the word "I've" instead of "We've" right after that part. (ya know, "We've been down so loooooong, ohhh it can't be longer still" etc.) Just wondering. Later.
