I tried downloading KeepVid but it doesn't seem to work so well.

Please, something that has recently proven to work and an >angel actually got a response on one particular address? Please advise. An initiation process is a great idea! I've always had suggestions, but they seldom make it past our lawyer review board... further complicating matters are hazing laws which vary state-by-state. Insofar as Jewel being likely to personally respond to an EDA or any fan... well, it ain't happening, despite her warm fuzzy web bios and what her stage banter suggests. Early in her career, we were an important part of her promotional strategy. In fact, EDAs were one of the first successful viral marketing tools -- 1996's JewelStock was a textbook case study in viral marketing done right. Since Jewel's found a great deal of financial success, her need for us as a street team and a support group is pretty much over and done. If you want to shake her hand, pay $200 for velvet rope backstage access, or trust in plain dumb luck that you'll run into her at a Starbuck's and she won't run in the opposite direction, double latte in hand. Jewel's not the type to engage in small talk with a fan... and she no longer needs us as a marketing tool, viral or otherwise. Personally, all that's fine by me. If Jewel can produce a deep catalog of recordings for me to enjoy on a pick-and-choose basis, I'll be happy enough. And she served her role as catalyst for the EDA starting point. EDA Gatherings... those are another story. But we just don't see them like we used to, do we? There are a few emerging opportunities for Gatherings in 2007 -- rumor has it there might be a significant grassroots east coast EDA event this summer. The EveryDay Angels Foundation celebrates it's tenth birthday this fall, with the possibility of a week long celebration being explored for southern California, including the 4th annual Encinitas Project Warmth show and a special birthday concert in the San Diego area. Maybe we'll repeat our launch week "Pajama Jam" and enjoy it in comfortable leisure wear. Other upcoming events include Amy's Project Warmth show with Randi Driscoll in Jersey City, and a Cape Cod Blues Festival for homeless veterans. Mike Connell continues to tease us with the possibility of him hosting an Eyeore's Backyard Birthday Party, complete with punch 'n pie. Woody the Plywood Cow is on board for that! Of course, any Jewel live performance is a great excuse to beat the bushes on this mailing list and arrange to meet other EDAs at the show. You'll discover the Jewel fan you meet at the show is actually cooler one-on-one (and makes a much better friend) than the Jewel performer you watch at the show. They usually won't make you pay $50 to see them again, either! Of course, your mileage may vary... Welcome to the list, Jones. Learn, live, love, and above all avoid stepping on butterflies or the T-Rex may become extinct. - -- Trust me.

Jewel's not the type to engage in small talk with a fan... and she no longer needs us as a marketing tool, viral or otherwise. Or hang around Stephenville, Texas and see if she shows up. I have some pretty good gossip that I have been saving for the right moment, which I guess is now: A friend of mine is from the stephenville area and her brother works at a farm/hardware store there in town and got to witness Ty and Jewel come in for some fencing stuff. He gathered up everything, handed the materials list to the man behind the counter, and the guy totaled the order. Ty then told the man behind the counter to "put it on his account." See, in alot of rural stores, esp feed stores and the like they usually have what amounts to a bar tab, where you can go, or just send the hired hand into town to get something without having to use money. Well, the man behind the counter said that they couldn't do that anymore, and Ty asked him, "Do you know who I am?" and the employee told Ty that indeed he did, but still "will this be cash, check, or credit card?" Then it is reported that Jewel asked(in a supposedly joking way) "Well, do you know who _I_ am?" and the guy nodded and said, "yup, I've seen you on TV, you're one of them Dixie Chicks." DOH! :-) I was not there, I did not see this, but I trust the person that told me the story, and she told it to me before she knew I was a jewel fan, so I'm betting it is pretty close to true. ------------------------------ End of jewel-digest V12 #25 ***************************
