Jewel Gets A Little Help From Audience Member
If you really want to meet Jewel face to face, you might consider
bringing her CD with you to one of her concerts. Last night at
Jewel's sold-out show in Mountain View, California, she invited one
lone audience member up on stage just because he had her debut
album, "Pieces of You," in his backpack.
Halfway through the show at the Shoreline Amphitheatre, Jewel
paused between songs. "Does anyone out there have a copy of
'Pieces of You,'" she asked unexpectedly. "With the case and the
front cover?" A boy came to the front row, pulling the CD from his
backpack. "I forgot the lyrics to this song," Jewel explained to him
and the audience. "Will you hold them up for me while I sing?" He
did so, happily mouthing the words to "Little Sister" while holding the
lyric sheet up for Jewel.
Aside from this and her three big hits "You
Were Meant For Me," "Foolish Games," and
"Who Will Save Your Soul?" Jewel offered
little from her earlier album of songs composed
at the age of nineteen. Most of the night's
material came from her latest release, "Spirit."
The quiet, well-behaved crowd listened intently
for most of the show, except for a few
passionate shouts from audience members professing their love for
the singer.
Later in the show, Jewel invited her fans who were sitting way up on
the lawn to come closer. As young concertgoers began flocking to
the stage, she asked one thing: "Just be gentle and don't smash each
other."
