My experience at the Merrillville show....
I've finally gotten the chance to submit my blog for Jewel's site of my experience being an Almost Famous winner. Here's the video though for you all to see before it gets posted.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mNpxl1YE62c Be sure to pay close attention towards the end of the interview. The highlight of the show for me was when she played Life Uncommon. During our interview I told her that it was my favorite song and really helped me through some bad times. I know I didn't really get across just how much her music meant to me but I did write her a letter because I knew I wouldn't be able to. Anyway, about halfway through the show she says, "I got to meet a fan before the show and she told me this song really helped her out through some rough times so I'd like to play this for her." I yelled out thank you, not sure if she heard me, we were seated a bit back. It meant so much to me and brought tears to my eyes. In the video you'll also learn a bit more about her upcoming album. I was so nervous I didn't really ask much of anything and laughed alot, I hope she doesn't think I'm too crazy! I hope you enjoy the video....April |

Awesome congrats on the experience! I would have been just as nervous and at a loss for words if I met Jewel but you did great! She seemsso gracious and humble...just like in all her interviews! YOu can tell she's very genuine. I'm glad to hear she's redoing Angel Standing By and with a harp no less! YAY!

That's great April. I'll be watching that when I get home this evening as I can't watch YouTube in here but it sounds like it went really well.
Did you tell her we say hi? That was really nice of Jewel to comment about the song and mention you before playing it. I'm sure she loves hearing what her music has meant to so many of us. Take care Kiera |

The new album will also feature Angel (Cowboy Waltz), now renamed Cowboy's Lament. I'm getting quite excited about it!

Finally got to see the video. I'm giddy here that she said hi to us all. Going to have to do something with that.
Thanks so much for mentioning us. That's brilliant. |
