[GWJewelGrL@aol.com] ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Date: Wed, 19 Jun 2002 14:34:05 EDT From: AnnualBearsville@aol.com Subject: [EDA] NJC: Bearsville 2002 - July 19-21 Hi all - Just a quick reminder that the annual Bearsville Gathering will be the weekend of July 19-21. I'm planning to throw up a quick web page (I had actually planned for it to be up by now, but have been busy) soon... So far I have a list of those who responded before and to a mailing to previous attendees. If you are interested, you can contact me at annualbearsville@aol.com I will probably get the page up mid next week since we'll be busy with the Jewel show on Friday and my daughter's birthday on Tuesday... For those of you wondering what this is, you can see a brief history/explanation of the event at the end of this email - after the attendee list - this is mostly taken from the Bearsville gathering page for 2000. Camping is basically $9 per night per person. Attendees so far include: Rob, Tammy, Ahmetia & Katerina Campbell Tom & Rachel O'Brien Tom & Tiffany Proven Laura & Jon Mike Connell (maybe for his customary 6 hours ;-) Bill Bartholomew Dan & Leif Amy Neufield (maybe) Eric Montas (at least one day) Erica Covallo (maybe) Kelly Gallagher Gina & Jake Cheyenne & Donny (maybe - friends of Gina & Jake) Iris (maybe) Please let me know if you would like to be added or removed from my list.... Hope to hear from many of you soon :-) Tammy :-) OK, What bands have you got lined up and how much are the tickets? No no no....this ain't that kinda Woodstock event. This is just a little ol' EDA gathering that was born in 1997 and has developed into an annual event to enable the subscribers of our Jewel fandom community to get together and hang out for a peaceful fun weekend in the lovely Catskill Mountains of New York State. Basically, it's as simple as this. Many folks believe the Jewel list was really "spiritually" born when Hiranya first announced JewelStock in early June 1996. (Hiranya was then the lists' main contact with Jewel and her management, as she worked for Jewel in the office) The JewelStock event itself was quite special, and many friendships were formed during those three days in Woodstock/Bearsville in July 1996. Since then many "EDA gatherings" have happened, arguably due to JewelStock, with most of them occurring without Jewel anywhere near the place (i.e. EDA gatherings generally are not featured around a concert of Jewel's, although some are). Five years ago, as the first anniversary of JewelStock rolled around, the idea for a major reunion/campout/EDA gathering in the Woodstock/Bearsville area surfaced, thus Bearsville 97 was born. The next summer we had Bearsville 98. After much intense brainstorming via conference calls, we decided to name last years' event Bearsville 99. Sticking with tradition. while adding two digits, this years will be known as Bearsville 2002. BV 97, through BV2001 were rousing successes, as over 30 people attended at various times of the events. These times musical entertainment was not part of the events, and it wasn't needed, as list members pretty much hung out and had fun, took in the Catskill Mountains, went to Woodstock to be hippies for a day, partook in other activities such as Tubing and Horseback Riding and last year a few of us went to a 'beach'... - not to mention attempting to get us booted from the campgrounds with fireworks... Let's see, who brought those?? Ahem.... Dennis??? ;-) ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 19 Jun 2002 22:18:48 EDT From: Fredsteve@aol.com Subject: [EDA] Re: This Way I don't think it's that she doesn't like the song... I think she just prefers songs that have more "lyrical depth", but she put This Way on the album because she appreciates the value of simplicity and sincerity. I think the fact that so many people loved You Were Meant For Me brought her to that conclusion. I don't think it's a matter of "letting" Atlantic put it on the record. Jewel picked the songs that were going to be on the record, and then recorded them. It's not like she delivered 20 songs to Atlantic and then let them pick the best 12 or whatever. I think she makes her records and then delivers them to Atlantic when they're done. As far as choosing it for the single... it's a radio friendly song. She's got a business sense. They picked something more adventurous in Break Me, and it was a major flop... so I guess they have to go back to what is most radio friendly on the record. Steve > what i'nm curious to know is... > if she doesn't like a song, why does she bother to record it, put it on an > album, and let it be considered for a single? out of all the songs she > recorded, why did she let atlantic put a song she doesn't like on the > album? > > personally, i would have liked to see 'does anybody believe in love > anymore' > on the album. there were some others that were have said to have been > recorded, but i cant remember what they were. > > i kind of like This Way.

It's not like she delivered 20 songs to >Atlantic and then let them pick the best 12 or whatever. actually she recorded more than what made it on the album. same as with Spirit, the never-released Fritz Creek Store, and POY. She didn't just simply record 12-14 songs for the album. She recorded more than that, and the rest are shelved.

Stacy was right... this is my new fav. cd!!! I can't stop listening to it!!! Its sooooooo good!! I read Shawney's review and i thought i'd i'd make my review sort of like that... Losing Grip - AWESOME SONG!!!! Its like... she's getting all her anger out in that song... and when she said "i was so alooooooone" it kinda reminds me of "alive" by P.O.D. Too cool! I give this song an A+ :D Complicated - Still an awesome song!! Not the best outta the album though!! I LOVE it though... and i don't think i'll ever get sick of it!! Plus... the video kicks ass!! :D I give this song an A+ also, lol... :D Sk8er boi - AHHHHHHHHHH!!! This is THE BEST song!! lol... i love the story she tells through it. Its so cool.

I give this song an A+ Mobile - this song has grown on me... Its cool... not the best one though. And i think its cool how she says "mobile" like Jewel says "fragile" hehehe! :D I give this song an A+ :D Unwanted - this is an awesome song!! Really hard rock-ish! :D I give it an A Tomorrow - this song is so sweet... (her voice i mean). I give it an A+ Anything But Ordinary - AHHH!! GREAT SONG!!!! I love the lyrics!! i'm gonna have to give this song an A+ Things I'll Never Say - I LOVE THIS SONG THE MOST!!!

Well.. it does to me! :D I give this song an A+ And last but certainly not least, Naked - THIS song she sounds exactly like Natalie Imbruglia... Shawney said another song sounded like Natalie Imbruglia's... but, this song, her voice sounds like Nat's. I LOVE IT!! I give it an A+ As you can see... most are evenly AWESOME!! But there are some that are even BETTER... NONE are bad. I want to thank Stacy and Charlie for suggesting i'd go and buy it. Which brings me to my story, lol... When i went to get it, i couldn't find it anywhere, so i asked the worker... I'm like "do you have Avril Lavigne's CD?" And he's all like "who?" And i said "Avril Lavigne!" And he's like... "Is that spanish?" And i'm like.. "noooo!! it's english!" He's like.. "what kinda music is it?" and i'm like "rock/alternative?" And he's like... "i've never heard of it, go look" so i'm like.. ugh!! some help he was... So i went back to look for it... eventually i found it as i was about to give up and leave... so i got it... made sure it was perfect... There were some that were cracked and stuff... and i'm like.. gez... So anyway... i take it up and he's like... "did you find it?" and i'm like... "yeah" And he's like..."i've never heard of her... is she good?" and i'm like "she's the best!... She's a new artist" and he's like... "oh, no wonder." so i told him "you should check it out!" and he's like "i'll do that!"

Hey everyone, I can't even believe it myself :) But we will get back to that later. The concert was amazing. It was my favorite of the three I've seen her at. She was just so into it, and so into the crowd. Her voice was incredible, and her sense of humor is as present as always. songs played (as well as I can remember and not in any particular order) I wont walk away Standing Still Do You Want to Play Till We Run Out of Road This Way Love Me Just Leave Me Alone Everybody Needs Someone Sometimes New Wild West Hands Life Uncommon Down So Long What's Simple Is True Near You Always Morning Song Cold Song 1,000 Miles Away* (my request) Foolish Games WWSYS YWMFM The Other WOman I requested 1,000 miles away and Jewel didn't remember the words. I had them with me in my Jewel lyrics book, and told her, so she told me to come up on stage. I got to talk to her for a few mins, and held the words as she sang, and at the end she gave me a hug. It was the MOST AMAZING night of my life!!!! Were there any other EDAs there? I met Ferrell who was right near me (waving hi to you!!) and we defenitely basked in the incredible opportunity I had together. If there was anyone else there, specifically anyone who got any taping or photographs (I didnt bring a camera, cuz i was afraid it would get confiscated, and have no pics of me on stage :( )...PLEASE PLEASE EMAIL ME!!!! Im willing to give my left foot for copies :) A Dream of Mine DEFENITELY came true tonight the "I Got To Go up on stage with Jewel" angel AKA *the mystic angel* Jordana "I'd rather see the world from another angle."-Jewel PS...if anyone is in a band, Jewel mentioned that through the new soulcitycafe, there will be a contest for up and coming bands, who want to submit their tapes. So you should check it out! ------------------------------ End of jewel-digest V7 #278 ***************************
