Don't know him personally but his album is fan-bloody-tastic! He's is definitely THE singer/songwriter/guitarist that has been missing from popular music for a long time. Bad news folks. I arrived 15 min. after tickets went on sale to find that he was sold out AGAIN!! Not to mention that the promoters are now asking $33. FUCK! I just pray that they will book another show. Hopefully this time somewhere like the Hordern or Waves (sorry those who are not in Sydney) where the there is no planned seating and its a little bigger. Gotta go cry in by beer, RICH. ------------------------------ From: ADAMSON RICHARD J Subject: 2 cents on Drummers Yes Matt Cameron is a fanastic drummer. I voted him in ahead of CC in the super group thing that was running awhile ago. Adam Clayton is also one of the best. Known as one of the hardest hitters in the businessn his use of celtic beats and toms is unique. Witness the slow build and excitement the created by the drumming in "With Or With Out You". Maybe the majority of his playing is 4/4 but he brings an individual angle to a tired old time signature. Other drummers I like: Brad Wilk - yeah he's pretty cool Mitch Mitcell - jazz rock acid fusion Elvin Jones - John Coltrane would not have been the same without him Terrapi Richmond - Went to school with this guy whose best known work is with DIG Jimmy Chamberlain - Smashing more than pumpkins Steven Perkins - Jane' Addiction, Porno For Pyros. Need I say more Simian Cain - Rollin's Skins man Lucius Borich - Kevin's son who gave Juice their edge now plays with Hanging Tree. Maybe the best drummer in Oz. Him or Terrapi. Which means the best in the world of course! (Flame!!!!) AND of course Bonszo who gave the kick drum its relevance in rock today. Lars don't impress me. Nice double kick but it sounds too 'clicky' and where's the feel! SEE YA's RICH. ------------------------------ From: John D'Abreu Subject: Re: the subject is JEFF On Fri, 22 Sep 1995, ADAMSON RICHARD J wrote: > Chicka writes: > > > > Who is Jeff Buckley? > > > Good question.

Major strike out Richard! :P Get this I was devastated last night as (you won't believe this) two of my three friends lost their credit card (ie. they cut it up)! Alas my luck was soley on my one friend. He rang me this morning to tell me the line was constanty engaged. :P~ So there I was, pretty much accepted I missed out so I thought I'd visit the ticket booth in town for the hell of it and it turned out they hadn't sold out contrary to the hype! And just like you suggested, it's general seating, on a lawn! *JOY* Sorry you didn't get tix d00d, hang in there. As for me it's a long wait till February for Jeff and the Big Day Out!

And yes I was going to send them off to e-mail the band area on the Official SG Web Page. Unless Seth has a better idea. I was going to give you all until Monday to get me your question then clean them up. We and I included my self in that WE, are really bad spellers and we won't even talk about grammar. I know my grammar teachers would turn over in their graves if they would read some of my posting. I have always felt that if your couldn't spell it was a sign of intelligence - yes the village idiot speaks again. My typing stinks also - this from someone who was the head of Word Processing for a company of 6,000 people. But being the head gives you access to staff who can spell and type - only good reason to be in management. Anyway - send me your One Question by Monday and I will then touch base with Seth on handling them.

Does anyone agree with me, or am I going to >get flamed for even thinking such rubbish, let alone writing about it? The Rose, I can't believe it, I love that song - to hear Chris sing something slow and moody like that would be truly great. I love Rick Ashley - people from England should know his work - there are a few songs of his that would be great for Chris to do. You want to know another song I think is really good (please try not to get to sick), Love song for a Vampire - Annie Leniox (spell that wrong I'm sure). If you get pass the idea that it written for a vampire and hear just the words, it is a wonderful love song. OK, guys so Carolyn and I like romantic music, we are women what do you expect. Jamie ------------------------------ From: Chicka Jackeen Subject: covers... OK, i never really thought of sg doing covers, but that would be interesting. I'd like to see "Hole in the Sky" by Black Sabbath, just to see how different it would sound if sg did it. Also, i'd like to see another hendrix cover. And on the soft side, maybe a Bob Dylan cover. (I can feel the flames already...) No, i've got it! The perfect song to soundgardenize would be "Margarittaville" by Jimmy Buffet!!!!!! I can't imagine how the boys would approach that!! That's why i'd like to hear it. Well, i'm putting on my flame proof vest now... -j ------------------------------ From: Chicka Jackeen Subject: question. I've heard that Chris did something on Alice Cooper's album "The Final Temptation" or something like that. Anyone know any further details? - -j ------------------------------ From: Chicka Jackeen Subject: cover i forgot. Oh yeah, i'd love to see sg do a cover of Alice Cooper's "School's Out For Summer" Anyone else agree/disagree/want to feed me to lions and tigers and bears, oh my!/aiming flamethrowers? -j "I went tight rope walking in two ton shoes..." ------------------------------ From: mrl5@Lehigh.EDU (ClownWithBazooka) Subject: Magic Frumps and Falterers I have decided to start a topic of conversation that has nothing to do with flaming Pearl Jam, or anyone else for that matter(I'm out of Fuel, for now) anyway lets see how many palindromes we can come up with for carolyn the mf. So far we have: Music Freak (Carolyn) : Mother Fucker : My Friend (Jamie) : Magic Fuck (All Carolyn, I'm not Commenting on that) : Master Falterer (Carolyn) : Major Frump (Carolyn) : Maginificient Funlover (Carolyn) : Mystical Fairy (Carolyn) I'm to tired to add any more my self I have gotten about 3 hours sleep in the last 24 hours. So that's probably why I'm creating silly topics that have nothing to do with Soundgarden. Anyway my present state of Mind is the closest I have ever come to being chemically enhanced so I think I am going to listen to Black Hole sun and go to bed.

With the music I would like them to cover, I have no right to flame a candle. How about Foxy Lady (hendrix cover) or the ultimate cover Zep's No Quarter or Stairway to Heaven. One more Smoke on the Water (Deep Purple). Has any one out there ever listen to Jon Lord's Sarabande (sp?) album? Zep's I'm in the mood is on the radio now, that would be a good one for SG to cover. Jamie ------------------------------ Subject: Re: Soundgarden question: I forgot to add From: seth > Anyway - send me your One Question by Monday and I will then touch base with > Seth on handling them. Well, putting them in a bottle and setting them afloat will probably get the questions to the band a whole lot faster than emailing sgkots@aol.com, so I think I may have a better way. Last night, I spoke with the guy who did all of the graphics for the official Web page (who was also good enough to provide me with another batch of images from the European tour, so check them out when you get a chance), and the phrase "I was over at Silver Management today" keeps sticking in my mind. Perhaps he'd be willing to deliver the questions to Susan Silver or the band itself next time he has a meeting there. I will call him and find out. By the way, for any of you out there who have helped out with the lyrics on the unofficial page, your work is currently being put to use by the official Web people. It seems that instead of doing the lyrics (which are going to be added soon) for their page from scratch, they printed out everything from our page and hired an intern to verify them. seth ------------------------------ From: Vikki__Anselmo_at_nyeqrm12@nylanr01.morgan.com Subject: Responses from SGKOTS Hello...Vikki here. I have already sent a few messages to the official Soundgarden Knights of the Soundtable e-mail address. The following are responses to my questions. AS FAR AS ACOUSTIC I DON'T PERSONALLY SEE IT BUT WHO KNOWS, MAYBE SOMEDAY. OK, YOU WANT TO KNOW WHO I AM AND WHAT AUTHORITY I HAVE TO ANSWER SOUNDGARDEN'S MAIL? I WORK FOR SUSAN SILVER. THERE IS ONLY ONE OF ME. THE FANCLUB IS LOCATED IN THE MANAGEMENT OFFICE. THE BAND READS ALOT OF THEIR MAIL AND GOES ON-LINE OCCASIONALLY. I AM HOWEVER THE RESIDENT BAND HISTORIAN AND PROBABLY KNOW MORE ABOUT SOUNDGARDEN THAN THE BAND DOES, SO I ANSWER ALL THE MAIL. OK? WHEN LYRICS ARE UNPUBLISHED, IT IS THE BANDS DECISION. IT IS PART OF THEIR ARTISTIC CONTROL TO NOT SEPARATE THE LYRICS FROM THE MUSIC. THE VIEW ON BOOTLEGS? THEY ARE NOT ONLY A CREATIVE RIP-OFF OF THE BAND BUT THE POOR QUALITY OF THE RECORDINGS ARE A MAJOR RIP-OFF TO THE PEOPLE WHO PAY WAY TOO MUCH MONEY TO BUY THEM. THE BAND FEELS THE FANS DESERVE WAY BETTER FOR THEIR CASH. It's me again, Vikki. Since there is only one person answering ALL of their mail (MY GOD, what a task!) we must be very patient when waiting for responses. I hope nobody minds, but I already sent what I felt was the most difficult question our list has thus far come up with to the official SGKOTS e-mail address as a test...to see if it is possible to get a detailed answer to such a complex question. Also, notice that I edited and shortened the question from its original form. For obvious reasons it is best to keep questions and comments on the official site SHORT and TO THE POINT. I will let all of you know when or if we get an answer. This is the message I sent from us... This is a 'scenario' question posted to the SG discussion group by a fan who thought it would be interesting to get each individual band members unique reply to the following: You and five other people are lounging near the fireplace in an old mansion way out of town, feeling extremely relaxed after just consuming a delicious meal. You're in no hurry to go anywhere. The room is warm and cozy. All you can hear is the fire, the rain and the wind. So the scene is set. Which five people would you like in this room with you and what would you talk about? ------------------------------ From: 945818@utb.edu Subject: hey joe i'd like to recommend all you soundgarden junkies (affectionate term) to take a listen at stone free: a tribute to jimi hendrix, particularly the last song, entitled "hey joe: land of the new rising sun." chris, along with matt and mike and jeff from pearl jam do an awesome rendition of an already awesome song. which brings me to my point. i think soundgarden should do a led zep cover. chris has the ability to sound either bluesy or hard. when he's bluesy, like on hey joe, his voice sends a shudder up my spine. it's almost orgasmic (no, don't take that the wrong way.) he can either purr or wail, and it is easily the sweetest sound i can hear. i think they should cover either black dog or four sticks. any other suggestions? jennifer garcia ------------------------------ Subject: Re: Soundgarden question: I forgot to add From: jsimpson@mail03.mitre.org (Jamesetta Simpson) >> Anyway - send me your One Question by Monday and I will then touch base with >> Seth on handling them. > >Well, putting them in a bottle and setting them afloat will probably >get the questions to the band a whole lot faster than emailing >sgkots@aol.com, so I think I may have a better way.

However I am still exahusted but I can't sleep very well during the day, so I'm back online. Anyway I would really like to hear Soundgarden Cover Black Dog, that would be incredible, IMHO I think Chris can hit the high notes better than Plant plus he has more range so Chris could probably sing the fuck out of that song. I would also like to hear them cover; "Little Wing" -Jimi Hendrix "Iron Man" -Black Sabbath "All Along The Watchtower" -Jimi Hendrix "Immigrant Song" -Led Zepplin "Think Twice Before You Go" -John Lee Hooker "Boom Boom" -John Lee Hooker "Whose That Lady" -Isley Brothers(Hey They Covered Fopp) Thats all for know.

The song has a tremendeous hook (Black hole sun, won't you come...). It gets in your ear and doesn't leave. That's the stuff that makes a hit song. You can sing, hum or whistle it, the melody is very recognisable and catchy. DJs picked up on it for that exact reason. They know a hit song when they hear one. > Tdittl was supposed to be released after spoonman. Which I don't think > is that radio friendly.

It's not aggresive, no cuss words, no weird stuff going on...

All there songs are great so if people like them so what Well, I guess sales prove you wrong. SU _is_ commercial. BHS is one of the greatest hits of this spring/summer. Those are facts.

And either contacts or glasses. Well, just to put an end (hopefully) to this silly business, I am 6'2", ~180lbs, long black hair, brown eyes (no glasses or contacts), and clean shaven (unless I get really lazy). Oh, and built like a truck. Just kidding. If you guys really want to see each other, you can send pictures TO ME, and I'll be more than happy to put them all on a Web page just for us, which won't be linked to anything else (except your homepages, if you want).
