Does anyone know if Edie Brickell is Jewish?

I don't know, but from what I understand she's one of the most kick ass women on the planet. Choke me before I get too deep. Cowicide 13:12, 29 October 2006 (UTC)

She is not Jewish Pete.k 22:01, 9 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Meeting Paul Simon

I've found some conflicting information about Brickell first meeting Paul Simon. The article says they met during a taping of Saturday Night Live while Brickell performed the song "What I Am" with the New Bohemians. The source cited is from CNN, so it seems credible, but I think it might be wrong. The New Bohemians made two appearances on Saturday Night Live-- November 5, 1988 and December 8, 1990-- but they only performed "What I Am" on the 1988 show. As far as I know Paul Simon did not appear on that show, but he did make a cameo on the 1990 show. I'm not changing the article because CNN seems like a good source, but if anyone finds another source go ahead and change the article. --Ddawn23 10:30, 3 December 2006 (UTC)

I'm no SNL aficionado, but if Google searches alone are the barometer, then there seems to be a problem with 1992 date. As far I've seen, 1988, 1990, and 1994 are the only times she's showing to have appeared with the New Bohemians. I can't imagine she was doing "What I Am" four years after it was a hit, in 1992 anyways. What's more is IMDB has no listing of her on SNL in 1992, but is readily linking a 1990 episode, which seems much more likely. In light of this I'm to change the date to 1990. If someone finds some conclusive evidence showing otherwise, feel free to link the source reference and change the date. B.Soto 00:28, 4 September 2007 (UTC)
