UK Article I've added an article in the "Articles" section. It is from a UK paper called the Weekly Telegraph. It's very insightful and may be able to answer some questions for those who are wondering if Jewel "sold-out" I can only roll my eyes at the notion! :) Here's a link. // Weekly Telegraph, "Quantum Leap" - August 2003 Jewel, the girl-next-door singer-songwriter from Alaska, has reinvented herself as a raunchy dance diva. . . with a surprising interest in atomic physics. By Craig McLean TICKET AUCTION TO BENEFIT CLEARWATER PROJECT As we previously mentioned, www.stubhub.com is currently working with Jewel to auction off FRONT ROW TICKETS AND PASSES TO MEET JEWEL!

I guess I should start by saying it's been an amazing adventure being MrBB for the past 8 years. But like all good things eventually, this alter-ego phase of my life is coming to an end. I've had many unforgettable experiences and some of the most enjoyable have been the opportunities I've had to meet many of you at events and concerts over the years. I plan to expand my work in independant recording archive management and audio engineering, which is where my true passion has always been. I'm most comfortable behind the scenes working directly with music and helping facilitate the creative process. It's Jewel's creative process and prolific nature that has always intrigued me and how she applies it to recording and performing that maintains my interest and respect. I may stay on in this capacity, but will no longer be involved in other areas, including the websites, calendar management or communicating to you through JeweLink. These areas are now in the very capable hands of her new management. Theres been some ups and downs over the years, but overall, its been a genuine honor to work for all of you. You've been fascinating, hilarious and quite the challenge at times, but in my experience, you remain the most thoughtful and intelligent fanbase on the planet. I wish you all the best and hope to run into many of you again. Take care of each other and stay passionate about music. Over and out, Alan Bershaw (MrBB)
Hi, Abbie here. The webmistress of this site. To be quite honest, I haven't worked on the site in a long time. I began building this site a year ago. It was so time consuming and took so VERY long because I wanted to make it the best -- the ULTIMATE -- Jewel site. Unfortunately, after plugging away for about 5 months, I got a little exhausted and frustrated with pouring over lines and lines of code for hours on end. But it was worth it! When I received an email from the Jewel Online Street Team about the "Build the Ultimate Jewel Fansite" contest, I was so excited! This page has been sitting on the internet, practically finished for 6 months. I had the perfect start! So, I gave it a new look am working on adding a ton of content (there is so much more due to the release of 0304). When I've completely finished, I will submit it for the contest! Wish me luck!! Here are the contest details: Enter the Ultimate Jewel Fan Site Contest! Win a place on Jeweljk.com! Beginning today through August 31st, everyone on the JeweLink Team who submits a web address/URL of their personal Jewel fan site will be entered in the Ultimate Jewel Fan Site Contest!

Hello again all, I’m back in the studio in L.A. I was gonna do my CD in San Diego, but I couldn’t get my studio up in time. So here we are. Randy Newman was in the studio next to me for the first few days. I’m the biggest fan, and as he walked by, he said “Hi,” and I think all I managed was a "Gruh, uh, f, ….Hi" or some such gibberish, as the blood had left my head. He said, "Thanks for putting me in your song 'Do You Want To Play'......even though it was about a sick girl." Yes, that’s right, ladies and gentleman, Randy Newman has heard my songs!
Soooo, my new record...
Jewel will be appearing in the December 2002 issue of "In Style" Magazine which hits newstands on November 20th. At the end of December, you'll also find a Jewel feature in the January 2003 issue of "Self" Magazine.

Recently, Jewel recorded a cover of Lynyrd Skynyrd's classic, "Sweet Home Alabama," co-producing the session with Linda Perry. A new Disney film by the same name, a romantic comedy starring Reese Witherspoon, will feature Jewel's title song during the closing scene and credits. This movie is due out in mid-September.
Rocker Girl (another Jewel fansite) is created! I started this page because I love Jewel and her music has been so inspiring to me. Now I finally have the adequate internet skills to make a page devoted to her. Enjoy!
