I don't JJ>know, lyrically maybe but musically i get a really different image. . . i JJ>don't know. Could be, although I thought it was just about a guy who's having a bad day. But then again, that's what I think about all those depressing SG songs that I can't get a real meaning out of. Anyway, Chris once said in an interview that he always feels better after he writes a depressing song like that, but he didn't feel better after he wrote that one, and he doesn't like to do it live, because of that. I think this is a pretty good possibility though. Here goes my thoughts... "Yeah, you know where I'm coming from" to all the old fans, or even new ones that understand that they do it because they like it, not for the money. "Give up to greed, you don't have to feed me." He doesn't need the money because he lives quite comfortably. "Give up to fate, you don't have to need me" I'm not sure about this, but maybe it has something to do with the people don't have to listen to it just to be cool, or something. "So throw it away, you don't have to take me. make no mistake I am what you make me." now that they are famous, people make what they want of their stuff and them (kinda like we do on this list, and what I'm doing here, but maybe in a more negative way) But maybe he's sfraid that he'll die and not accomplish anything or gain anything. "Heal my wounds without a trace. Seal my tomb without a face, I'm going to a lonely place." People aren't noticing him and he'll die an unknown man (yeah, right). Probably like Beethoven (or was this Mozart...I can't remember, help URB@NO) felt after his last performance. He was deaf and he wrote one last piece, and when he conducted it (conducting would be facing away from the audience), he thought that everybody hated it and started crying and then his friend turned him around to see the audience cheering and standing O'ing him and stuff. No, I think it was Mozart. Anyway, I forget my point. Nothingman -But I still think it's about a guy having a really bad day. ------------------------------ From: rc@gcc.cc.md.us Subject: SG on Encarta TH>I found something interesting today...on the Encarta Multimedia Encyclopedia TH>there is a one minute sample from a SG song under the guitar heading...

In fact, when these guys came to Houston supporting their first full-length album in 1993, they were young and not well-known so they did a "Seattle medley" consisting of Nirvana's "Territrorial Pissings," Soundagarden's "Incessant Mace," a Dead Boys song, a Jane's Addiction song and a Kiss song.

My friend has a demo CD bootleg of these guys and they're different from Soundgarden in that they are less detuned and Sabbathesque. They are more like the New York Dolls or Kiss. They play clashing music with semi-serious lyrics. One song, "Birthday Burial," is done with Weiland of STP. They also do an extended cover of the Misfits, playing "Skulls" and "Earth AD" in the middle of their own "Smells Alright." To get back to the news of the tour, it seems that it will be mostly a West-coast tour and perhaps Tool will join them. The members of the band (at least on the demo bootleg are Chris on lead vocals and guitars, a guy named Zeek on guitars and backing vocals, a guy named Zac on bass, and Capt. Zoock on drums. I have no idea who these guys really are. Someone write back if they have additional information on this tour/band's releases.

Uhhhh since I don't hear Loud Love or Kevin's Mom on the radio every month, I consider them kind of old (for them to be playing on the radio, since all I usally hear is stuff from BMF or Superunknown) and I NEVER hear shit from Somms on the radio so I consider that kinda rare for the radio. I mean after hearing Black Hole Sun 50,000 times, to hear Jesus Christ Pose on a national station I thought was cool. I mean when you talk about it in radio terms, if they played something like Nothing To Say on Z-rock or Fluttergirl, even, that's NOT gonna happen. So I consider stuff like Loud Love and Into The Void rare for the radio's standards. Gee, sorry about that. Damn, I thought this was the Soundgarden mailing liste, but you told me, to um, reconsider my liking for Soundgarden, Seth, did you change this to the I HATE Soundgarden list recently?

That meant that the show was delayed for two hours while the band scraped together some equipment. At first I had heard that they were going to rent stuff, but then Billy and James said that they borrowed the stuff from Pearl Jam, Alice in Chains, and Soundgarden. They played Pearl Jam's Alive for several chords. James made some comment about the guitar he was using was a Stone Gossard model. Billy said his looked like a McCready model. That's when the broke into Alive. I think it's something about the Moore theatre that makes bands want to cover PJ. It's got something to do with the fact that the Evenflow video was taken from a video of a live performance at the Moore. ------------------------------ From: blind dog Subject: holy bible on the nightstand next to me...

I also read in an interview published here in australia that ministry wanted soundgarden to open for them on their upcoming tour. it would be an interesting lineup, but I'm not sure that al and paul actually understand the dynamics of having soundgarden and ministry on the same bill. I'm sure that there are a lot of ministry fans who would rather cheer ding-a-lang-ding-dong than mosh to rusty cage, but I'm not sure that soundgarden would be interested in opening for ministry. more like the other way around :) ----------------------------------- a thousand doors, a thousand lies rooms a thousand years wide ----------------------------------- ------------------------------ From: blind dog Subject: mouths of the babes...

HMV has it on their list of 'to be released' and the date was Jan 24. I have yet to find a store in Winnipeg that has it. Most know nothing about it. I have AITS thanks to my disc-smuggling-hockey-chasing-bootlegging-moonshine-runnin pal south of the border. I'm waiting for Songs from the Superunknown, so I can hear Jerry Garcia's Finger (the song which has been reported by some ill-informed magazine to be Finger, written by Jerry Garcia - ha-ha) Anyway the disc is awesome, although I'll admit it is probably only worth it for SG fanatics. You really have to understand SG and their sense of humour to fully appreciate it - (e.g. Pong).

Yeah, the stupid thing about the driver disc is that my drive WILL play CD+, although the disc says it cannot! I think the only drivers on the disc are SCSI anyway.
