Green day just kind of says, well, nothing. they have no EMI, no train in vain, no someone got murdered. i guess they kind of appeal to this idea of GEN X and all that. and no, i'm not fans of the ramones. they look too much like howard stern. AC/DC boggles my mind. i love AC/DC, and i think they are the most hilarious band out there, but i still can't figure out the reason they still have careers. as musicians, they're negligible. as innovators, they don't exist. and yet, i jam the shit out of their songs when i hear them. i think they just appeal to the basest parts of everyone: sex, drugs and rock and roll, that is all that AC/DC is. guys on a permanent vacation if you will. ------------------------------ From: "Dan \"Pop-tart\" Hearsch" Subject: Re: Band Names -- Help!

The last word on the Van Halen matter is that they can never be roped in with the Motley Crue/GnR, make-up wearing glam bands, they were the first, they did it uniquely and brilliantly in a time when it may have mattered and by the time bands like that came out they had moved on. Eddie VH IS probably the best guitarist (technically & creatively) in the world, he has inspired countless people the world over by pioneering a totally unique guitar style (Hendrix kiss my ass) and wrote some great songs (check out: Mean Street, Dirty Movies, Drop Dead Legs, Hear About It Later) that don't sound dated now like Appetite for Destruction and Girls, Girls, Girls do, don't get me wrong I loathe glam rock but VH are different and thats why they still go top ten when "The Crue" are back to playing theatres. I will say that Sammy Hagar is a bit of a jerk and their latest album is their worst, also Eddie!! Lose the beard!! Please guys there are much more bands worthy of a royal slagging!! Is Chris gay?? did'nt we have all this 2 months ago, of course he's not, its just that his every utterance is open to dissection and discussion by us, and I know that he, whatever he said on stage or whenever was having a laugh, you remember laughing = Fun!! If he knew we were going over this he'd probably frown and think we did'nt have a sense of humour or better still a life!! The guy is seemingly happily married, just cos' he and Susan have'nt had kids does not mean shit, there is a 50 yr old woman in my office who has been married for 25 years and has'nt had kids, does that mean her hubby is bi?? - bollocks!! Chris and Susan have highly busy, pressurised careers, I expect a child is the last thing on their mind. Can we not now start talking about something that has a point??

Then after the third one, play 3rd fret on top three strings (I know, they're all the same, but it doesn't sound right unless you play all three). then contininue until you get to the jammin' part of the song (listen to it and figure it out yourself). Then, at this part, play the bottom three strings open, then third fret (still on three bottom strings) then fifth. after a while, you'll hear a sqealy high part come in (before Chris sings). That would be those top three strings that you haven't used yet (except for at the beginning). this is where you play open on all six strings, then third, then fifth, and repeat until Chris starts to sing. The whole song is based on the third and fifth frets (and open of course) so if you can get that far, you can get the rest (it's basically all the same, except for the solos, but I don't do those yet).

I understand where you're coming from, but some people say, "Oh, no. They're popular...I don't like them now." I know plenty of people who do this, and I think it's stupid. Ok, so you get sick of a song, but that's no reason to hate everything else that you've liked before that song. I like what appeals to me. But sometimes it does piss me off that people start liking bands just because other people that they think of as cool like that band. I know plenty of people who, just recently started liking NIN. Not too long before that, when I played Pretty Hate machine, they said how much it sucked and how ugly that guy was, but now, they worship the land he walks on, and they have all NIN albums.

Does it REALLY matter? If Chris announced tomorrow that he was, would you swear off Sgarden forever? Would you stop listening to it or stop buying it? As others on the list have said, it doesn't and shouldn't matter! Let's comment on the MTV transcript....bogus! I just started laughing as I read thru the flippant comments Chris was making. Folks, that's no indicator of what the man is like! Fans don't know what he's likde off stage, and the press doesn't know either. (Esp. the British press, but that's another dissertation--anyone care to comment?) I'm not saying the thing was faked, I'm saying that's still not a look at the inner workings of CC. Off stage he's shy and quiet, and the only person I've ever seen him be animated with off stage is his brother Peter who has a band in Seattle also. Yes, I've met CC and the whole band--band once, CC twice. The CC you see on stage is not anything like the CC off stage! Hey, Blind Dog--ever go listen to Inflatable Soule? If not, getcher self there. Brother Peter and 2 sisters Katy and Suzy Cornell are in it. Awesome music, awesome people. Before you ask, yes, I know them, As in email Peter regularly, talk to the drummer on the phone regularly, feature the band in a zine I do. Really cool people, and they deserve a contract! FYI--if anyone wants to know--CC owns 3 Poms, 1 German Shepard that he got last spring, and 1 Black German Shepard--Bill, everyone knows Bill, he's been in pix w/ them--who actually moved himself next door but comes to visit. Also 2 cats. Anyone catch PJ's Self Pollution Radio? The songs for Corey were for a puppy that had just that day died of parvo-virus. CC loves animals. Likes to give puppies as gifts to family and relatives. Let's face it, he's a big softie! I think Kimster still has 2 cats. Question posed to me this morning by a friend into Sg also--does anyone know if any of the band ever reads this list? We were wondering b/c CC loves his computer, and he and Peter e-mailed each other every day while Sg was in Europe! It would be cool if he did! OK, kiddies, gotta run! Comments and email welcome!

Why can't I find the new cd plus and the other cd at Best Buy or Blockbuster? I know they may just be temporarily sold out, but I hope it's not some limited edition thing. It's not....right? 5). Am I the only one who doesn't have cable (MTV)? I don't really miss having it except when I miss Soundgarden on the awards. 6). I guess that's where the bisexual thing came from (Mtv) and I missed it. But who cares if he is anyway? He's still the man. 8). Anybody from Indiana (Eun-Dee-A-NUH)? 7). Does anybody care about all of my questions? (no,jennifer.) Things I like: Things I hate: soundgarden stone temple pilots Little Joe Sub Pop Rock City pigs (the animals) pigs (the people) graduating in may having to take summer classes answers to questions questions quarter beer quarter beer w/ a roach in it (it happened I swear) Sean Yseult Alanis Morrisette well that's all.

Vikki ______________________________ Forward Header __________________________________ WARNING!!!!!!!!!: INTERNET VIRUS The FCC released a warning last Wednesday concerning a matter of major importance to any regular user of the INTERNET. Apparently, a new computer virus has been engineered by a user of America Online that is unparalleled in its destructive capability. Other, more well-known viruses such as Stoned, Airwolf, and Michaelangelo pale in comparison to the prospects of this newest creation by a warped mentality. What makes this virus so terrifying, said the FCC, is the fact that no program needs to be exchanged for a new computer to be infected. It can be spread through the existing e-mail systems of the INTERNET. Once a computer is infected, one of several things can happen. If the computer contains a hard drive, that will most likely be destroyed. If the program is not stopped, the computer's processor will be placed in an nth- complexity infinite binary loop - which can severely damage the processor if left running that way too long. There is one sure means of detecting what is now known as the "Good Times" virus. It always travels to new computers the same way in a text e-mail message with the subject line reading simply "Good Times". Avoiding infection is easy once the file has been received - not reading it. The act of loading the file into the mail server's ASCII buffer causes the "Good Times" mainline program to initialize and execute. The program is highly intelligent - it will send copies of itself to everyone whose e-mail address is contained in a received-mail file or a sent- mail file, if it can find one. It will then proceed to trash the computer it is running on. The bottom line here is - if you receive a file with the subject line "Good Times", delete it immediately! Do not read it! Rest assured that whoever's name was on the "From:" line was surely struck by the virus. Warn your friends and local system users of this newest threat to the INTERNET! It could save them a lot of time and money. ------------------------------ From: curtis wayne swedran Subject: Re: an unkind remark...
