The album’s seventh track,
“Anderson’s Luck,” is about
the troubles in Eastern Eu
rope. This song has more
feeling than others on the al
bum. O’Neill wrote the
lyrics as a reaction to what he
sees in the newspaper and on
television about Sarajevo.
“Forces,” written by
Pierce, is a favorite of both
Pierce and O’Neill. The song
touches on the herding of
Native Americans, with the
realization that time will re
member.
Pierce said he wrote the
song “Jacob” in 30 minutes.
This song offers a sympathet
ic look at a boy’s entangle
ment in his parents’ marital
problems.
The songs “Free” and
“Along for the Ride” are tak
en from the group’s third al
bum; and they are two of the
better songs on this one.
“Iron John”is drawn from
O ‘Neill’s memories of his
grandparents’ home in Pitts
burgh. Growing up in an
army family, he moved
around often as a child. Go
ing home to Pittsburgh was
like going to heaven, O’Neill
said.
“Get to Know Me Better”
finishes off the album on a
harmonious, happy note.
This is the old Jackopierce.
Although they worked hard
to promote themselves before
signing with A&M, Pierce
said signing meant a lot more
work.
“It’s not just town to town
anymore. We have phone in
terviews, in-store concerts,
and radio interviews,” Pierce
said. “But we were lucky be
cause we already had a lot of
groundwork.”
O’Neill said signing with
a major label has been easier
in business terms, though,
because A&M has the power
to get the album out to the
public.
But, he said it’s harder be
cause people will be scruti
nizing them more now.
“We have more pressure to
deliver the goods,” he said.
“All the work we have done
so far will be forgotten today.
This is our chance to be new
again.”
Pierce said signing with a
major label didn’t surprise
him because this is what he
has always worked for.
"We don’t worry about
what happens next,” Pierce
said. “We work hard and it
all pans out.”
Jackopierce hopes to tour
Europe after the album is re
leased overseas, but Pierce
said they are more concerned
with doing live shows in the
United States.
“Basically we are always on
tour; for the rest of our lives
it seems,” Pierce said.
O’Neill said touring is a
love-hate situation for them.
“People have to live by the
tour and die by the tour,” he
said
As part of the group’s 12-
week summer tour, Jack
opierce will return to College
Station at the Wolf Pen Creek
Amphitheater on May 1 1.

she said, “but I had to head
the whole thing.”
The result of her efforts can
be seen tonight at 9, when the
five winning videos are fea
tured on the PBS series “Earth
keeping.” This is the last seg
ment of the series, which
Armstrong said will air in vari
ous parts of the country.
Now that her Girl Scouting
days are over — membership
usually ends at the age of 1 8
— Armstrong can look back at
an experience she considers
valuable.
“I liked Girl Scouts a lot in
high school and I stuck with it
because it did have a lot of op
portunities to offer," Arm
strong said. “I can’t really see
myself becoming involved in
Girl Scouts in the future, but I
will probably encourage my
kids to.”
Armstrong said Girl Scouts
helped her to form a new per
spective on things. She partic
ularly enjoyed the work she
did on her video.
“I don’t know if I’ll have an
opportunity like that again,”
Armstrong said. “I was very
delighted that I could do
something to help the environ
ment."
Armstrong is presently con
tinuing her earthly interest as a
bioenvironmental sciences ma
jor at A&M, although she said
she has already been warned of
the consequences.
“I’m only a freshman,”
Armstrong said. “I’ve been
told I’ll change my major six
or seven times before it’s over.”
But that hasn’t stopped her
from setting goals. Armstrong
said she hopes to later attend
law school and pursue a career
in environmental law.
With the experience she’s
gained through Girl Scouts and
an A&M education, Armstrong
said she hopes she will be pre
pared for a well-rounded
lifestyle.
"I want to encompass
everything in life,” she said.
