Jessica....its a maybe, I just called and they said it was a signing but also odd that it is off site at a performance hall and requires tickets?

Yeah, it was pretty sketch like that with the Phoenix show, too. :/

Anyway, looking at a map, Naperville looks wicked far from Schaumburg, where I like to stay.

Singer-songwriter Jewel to perform in Naperville

Singer-songwriter Jewel will perform and discuss her new memoir, "Never Broken," during an appearance later this month on the campus of Naperville's North Central College.

Her appearance is scheduled for 7 p.m. Tuesday, Sept. 29, in Wentz Concert Hall, 171 E. Chicago Ave. The program is sponsored by Anderson's Bookshop and tickets will be available with the purchase of the new book at the store, 123 W. Jefferson Ave., in downtown Naperville. For details, call (630) 355-2665 or visit www.andersonsbookshop.com.

Already a best-selling poet, Jewel's new book explores her unconventional upbringing and extraordinary life in a memoir that stretches from her childhood to her career, marriage and motherhood.

Jewel's first album, "Pieces of You," rose to the top of the charts in 1995 and she since has sold more than 30 million albums worldwide. Her latest album is called "Picking Up The Pieces."

She learned to yodel when she was 5 years old living on a homestead in Alaska and joined her parents' entertainment act, working in hotels, honky-tonks, and biker bars. But she also was dealing with instability, abuse and trauma and by 15 had moved out and soon was accepted by the Iterlochen Arts Academy in Michigan where she began writing her own songs.

She was 18 and homeless in San Diego when a radio DJ aired a bootleg version of one of her songs and by 21 her debut album had gone multiplatinum.

Since then she has received four Grammy Award nominations. She is the founder of Project Clean Water, and author of the best-seller "A Night Without Armor: Poems," as well as two books for children. She lives in Tennessee and Colorado with her son.

They finally updated the calendar, its no reserve seating and 40 bucks gets 2 people in and 1 book, this actually works out good because I will already be off that day, might have to drag the kids with us but thats fine. Jessica, Naperville is less than a hour from Schaumberg(28 miles).

Edit...went abead and purchased the companion package and will get another if we can't get a sitter that night.

Wow, I wish I could be there, or that Jewel would come to Europe again sometime. I can understand that she doesn't, but I'm afraid I will never see her live again.

I like how she still tells the stealing story like she only ever stole some food when she was homeless - no mention of early Cleptojewel in any of these shows :lol:

CHICAGO – Jewel Kilcher has a long resume of accomplishments in her 20 year career as a singer/songwriter, producer, actress and poet/author. She has just released a new memoir entitled “Never Broken: Songs Are Only Half the Story,” right next to her new album, “Picking Up the Pieces.” She appeared on behalf of the book at North Central College in Naperville, Ill., presented by Anderson’s Book Shop.

Jewel had modest roots, growing up in Alaska in frontier conditions. After learning the guitar in school, she famously lived in her car while performing in California music venues. After being discovered in 1995 – at age 19 – by manager Inga Vainshtein, she recorded her first album, “Pieces of Me,” at Neil Young’s ranch studio. The disk was a monster hit, eventually selling 12 million copies and spawning hits like “You Were Meant for Me,” “Who Will Save Your Soul,” and “Foolish Games.” She has since released ten albums, including two holiday collections, and has authored eight books.

HollywoodChicago.com photographer Joe Arce was on the scene as Jewel did an acoustic set and signed her new book at North Central College, and shot this Exclusive Portrait.
