Hasn't he had a bit of a torrid history? not that that's important to him musically. If you like him and the alt. country (i hate that term, but it's so widespread now) thing then check out Chris Mills, Kelly Hogan, Neko Case, Handsome Family and the whole Chicago/bloodshot scene. Other hot tips... Lauren Hoffman, i've said it before and i'll say it again, Liz fans should check her out, go to www.forlauren.com and Laura Cantrell, who's a bit like Nanci Griffith crossed with Lucinda Williams. Good news... the second instalment of Mermaid Avenue, Wilco and Billy Bragg out soon. "and i wonder how i've come to know so much less than i knew before" ... Joseph Lee Henry. "i know the promise is so much better than the real thing" ...

BUT okay..it is not JEWel-ish at all...but it sure as hell isn't Veruca Salty either. Jewel had the whole Piano, slow song, "personal lyrics of change" thing with Foolish Game... I don't know - I was being dumb and I apologize to all Jewel fans for my silly comparrison. I am stupid. I admit it.. Let it be known, I am the only member of this list to ever admit that. BY THE WAY - I finally got Jen Trynin's COCKAMAMIE. Jase - I just gotta say thanks once again for introducing me to this awesome singer...she completely rocks. I got the newer album first and prolly love that one more..but this one is really cool...found it in the cheap-o bin too - so that's a bonus. Jase - you might know the answer to this...remember a while back, Jen Trynin posted a letter to her fans, saying she is sick of the business, she is going to back to school and staying away from the whole scene for awhile? Anyway, didn't you later say that she is possibly back at work writing songs and searching for a label to pick her up? That would be heaven!! Maybe I just dreamt it, I don't know. at any rate, putting the damage on, Dan. %&%&%&%&%%%%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&% "I don't have a case, that's why I have a hammer." -Farrah Fawcett, "Extremities." *******************************^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^* ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 19 May 2000 17:09:22 PDT From: "an angry post-feminist" Subject: geographical lacihpargoeg >also, i'll be in san francisco and san jose next week...anybody there? i'm 45 minutes from san jose. yup. nathan ________________________________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free E-mail from MSN Hotmail at http://www.hotmail.com ------------------------------ End of support-system-digest V3 #135 ************************************
