Edited from original source: JeweLink NewsFlash: October 24, 2001

12 October 2001- The official domestic (North America) tracklist for Jewel's new album "This Way"

Edited from original source: JeweLink: October 12, 2001

It's the moment you've all been waiting so patiently for. The official domestic (North America) tracklist for Jewel's new album "This Way," is as follows in the correct running order:
1. Standing Still
2. Jesus Loves You
3. Everybody Needs Someone Sometime
4. Break Me
5. Do You Want To Play
6. Till We Run Out Of Road
7. Serve The Ego
8. This Way
9. Cleveland
10. I Won't Walk Away
11. Love Me Just Leave Me Alone
12. The New Wild West

In addition to the above studio recordings, all of which were co-produced by Jewel and Dann Huff in Nashville, the new album will also contain a few bonus solo acoustic live recordings. These live recordings will differ in various areas of the world but on the North American version they will be:

13. Grey Matter
14. Sometimes It Be That Way

In The United States, Canada, Australia and New Zealand, the album will be released on Tuesday, November 13th. It will be released a bit earlier in Japan on October 31st.

For collectors, some of the non-domestic versions, including the Japan release, will feature a different live version of "Sometimes It Be That Way" and the additional live track "A Long Slow Slide." Jewel's new album will also be released in a limited edition double album vinyl set for all you turntable audiophiles and for those who miss the days of 12" record albums. The vinyl edition contains the same tracks as the domestic CD spread over four LP sides.

Most of Latin America, Europe and South East Asia will see a release date scheduled during the first quarter of 2002.

Also, of particular interest to JeweLink members and computer users in general, is that "This Way" will be an enhanced CD containing a video of an alternate studio version of one of the album tracks. We'll let that be an enjoyable surprise.

Jewel will soon determine who will be co-producing specific tracks and then will begin scheduling recording sessions for her next album. Stay tuned for continued updates.

the Official Jewel website: NEW GAMES
More new Jewelology trivia questions and by popular request, the questions are more difficult this time. If you make it to the end, this also means you gain access to more never-before-seen videos. Among the video clip prizes this round is footage from the 1996 Jewelstock performance of the song, "Amen." Also a new round of Bites And Baubles for your enjoyment. To participate in these new games, log on to our "Activities" page at www.jeweljk.com.

27 March 2001- The official Jewel website has unveiled a brand new look

Edited from original source: JeweLink: March 27, 2001

Today is the unveiling of a brand new look at Jewel's official website at www.jeweljk.com. Along with these changes comes some all-new interactive activities, which is a fancy way of saying games, games, games!

That's right, you'll find a new ACTIVITIES page in our navigation menu. Here you'll find the first launch of our interactive games all about Jewel. For the page's premiere, we're offering two unique game experiences. The first is called "Bites & Baubles," which can best be described with the question: "How fast can you name that Jewel tune?" The game is loaded with sound bites from Jewel songs. Your job is to figure out which songs they are without having to ask for more clues.

Then pop into the second game and test your knowledge for some straight-up Jewel trivia. Called "Jewelology," this game rewards those who've made being a Jewel fan a science. There are three levels of questions, each one harder than the last. You're bound to learn a few facts each time you play and we dare you to make it all the way to the end.

So what if you do make it to the end of our games? Good question! Well, on top of just feeling pretty good about yourself, there's prizes. Right now, when you win by completing all three levels, you'll have access to exclusive live performance video clips, never seen anywhere else! We're going through the archives, pulling specially selected performances both old and new. Along with unreleased performance clips from the 1999 Spirit World Tour and the mini-solo-acoustic tour last year, future prize clips will also include never-before-seen video footage from Jewel's legendary 1996 concerts at The Bearsville Theater in Woodstock, affectionately remembered as Jewelstock.

26 March 2001- Jewel shows her support for TY

Jewel was present in Cleveland, Ohio to watch her boyfriend Ty Murray ride. Ty made it to the Western Union Money Round at the PBR Bud Light Cup Cleveland Open. Ty's 92.5 point ride on Claytons Pet in round three pushed him to third position, taking home $12,520.40. The PBR Bud Light Cup Cleveland Open took place March 2-3 and was broadcast on March 25, TNN at 9:00PM EST.

11 March 2001- Jewel's house will be featured on an upcoming episode

Earlier today, MTV dropped by Jewel's house to film an upcoming episode of "MTV Cribs," which shows popular musicians at home in their natural habitats. This will be broadcast next Thursday March 22 at 10:00PM EST.


11 March 2001- Last night's episode of "The Sopranos" featured a Jewel concert

The plot featured a storyline where mobsters robbed the box office at a fictitious Jewel concert at Rutger's University in New Jersey. Much to their dismay, they discovered that not only was it a benefit concert, but most of the students paid for tickets using student activity cards!

08 March 2001- Jewel on Austin City Limits repeats this weekend

While this will likely NOT be airing in ALL locales, www.rockontv.com says the national PBS network lists Jewel's Austin City Limits gig as being on this weekend. (9:00pm Saturday night on the *national* PBS station).

Please keep in mind, MOST areas in the United States have their own separate PBS affiliate with their own television schedules. Many of these DO carry Austin City Limits and many do feature the same episode the national PBS station does any given weekend, but it likely would be on at a different time and even a different day. Of course many PBS stations either do not carry Austin City Limits and many do not feature the same episode the national station does.

The best ways to find out if it is airing in your area this weekend are by checking your local listings. (TV Guide, newspaper etc).

For many PBS stations, you can check online to see their TV schedule, and often it tells you exactly which episode of a show is airing.

Head to www.pbs.org and then click on "Station Finder" at the top right corner of your screen, OR fill in your Zip Code where it asks IF that part shows up on the main pbs.org screen. If not, just click "Station Finder" and fill in your Zip Code on the next screen.

It will then lead you to one or more choices for a PBS station in your area, and the web page that goes along with it. You should be able to find a TV Schedule there for your local station. (Austin City Limits airs on Friday, Saturday or Sunday evenings in most areas, so be sure to check all three nights)

Again, please keep in mind many stations will NOT be showing this one with Jewel, while many likely will.
