Possible art work for the T-shirt. Kind of a running joke for me. One day I drew a picture of two flys and just mailed it to my friend (he got the joke right away). I think we should all draw some flys and send the drawings to who ever is making the shirt. Then we could have some of our own art work on the shirt. (small flys all over the shirt in the background). I do not know if it is a good idea or not, maybe I just want everyone to be Drawing Flys like me. ** "satanoscillatemymettallicsonatas" Damn good Idea - --It took me a while to get what the fork idea was all about, I just got it. I've seen pictures of Chris with the fork on, but I didn't know it was a fork, I didn't know what the fuck it was, I only knew that I liked it and I wanted one. The fork is a good idea. Remember, tons of flys in the background (our own art work!) DRIX ------------------------------ From: Tim J Driscoll Subject: Full on Mrs. Arnald I like using quotes in everyday conversation. One day I was watching "The Wonder Years" on TV, the whole Arnald family was at a wedding reception. Some old guy was hitting on Mrs. Arnald, so I said to my buddy, "hey, that old dude wants to go full on Kev's mom." I use "I ain't saying who but it wasn't me" about 11 times a week. Does anyone esle try as hard as I do to get these quotes out? DRIX ------------------------------ From: btimlake@nwu.edu (Benjamin Timberlake) Subject: Ministry fan base My friend went to ticketmaster the morning the tickets for their Chicago show went on sale. She said there were like thirteen people in line in front of her buying radiohead tickets. Based on this small sampling, I guess radiohead has a bigger fanbase than Ministry (area and demographics aside). Since I'm pretty sure Soundgarden has a bigger fan base than radiohead, by syllogism, they must have a bigger fanbase than Ministry. - Ben Benjamin Timberlake --------P O U R I N G Northwestern University --------D O W N btimlake@nwu.edu --------W I N D "If I could be sure of the words there are more things to say would you crawl into my world and take these words away?" - Chris Cornell, "Seasons" ------------------------------ From: "W.N.

(Heheh, JCP PC) Anyway when I replied to you I forgot all the specifics. Whoopsie :> Anyway, go on AOL and do a library search on the word Soundgarden and it'll find it for you. If you can look for it by filename, it's JCPOSE.ZIP (I think I told someone JCPOSE.EXE, well it's not, sorry, forgive me, I just got out of bed. :>) Since it's a ZIPped file, you need PKUNZIP.EXE to unzip it, seeing as you have to go in DOS to run PC speaker thinge, you can probably handle that :> Ok, if you want to unZIP this, and if you don't have PKUNZIP.EXE, look on AOL for that too, library search on the word PKUNZIP and it should have it. Then in DOS type pkunzip jcpose.zip and then type JCPOSE to run JCPOSE.EXE. When it asks you what speed, 1 is fastest and 144, say (which is the tempo for the song, actually) is SLOW. It's backwards. :> Course, AOL actually might extract the file for you itself (mine did that), so you might not need PKUNZIP at all, or you might actually have it, I can't see what's on your hard drive! I'm sorry! I'll stop now! foreshocks ------------------------------ From: btimlake@nwu.edu (Benjamin Timberlake) Subject: Pearl Jam poster I saw this poster of pearl jam in my friend's room (the same friend who bought ministry tickets, btw) and two of the guys (I didn't know the names of these two, but not Eddie or Stone) were wearing SG t-shirts. One was the BMF logo shirt and the other was a picture of the band, with Kim up really close and bug-eyed. Also, does anyone know where the title "BadMotorFinger" comes from? I always thought it sounded sort of like "BadMotherFucker." I seem to find a lot of profanity in SG, though. I guess it could just be about a pointy sparkplug.

To make a long story short...a badmotorfinger is a vibrator. (IMHO) There a wierd tie in to an obscure 70's band (1974 I think) Montrose (whose first singer was Sammy Hagar) that had a song called "badmotorscooter" on thier self titled debut album. Also on the album is the exact! guitar sound as on "Motorcycle Loop" in the intro to "badmotorscooter". The 'shifting of gears' thing.

I counted the live version of the demo because it is a distinctly differrent version then the others. But your right, we can't count every version ever recorded. But every time it is distinctly differrent it's a new version. But you can only count one live tour performance. But the self pollution broadcast is a distinct version because it's a live version of the demo. However I don't really think that radio edit's and the video version with 4 seconds more material should be counted as differrent version.

It will be on Rhino Hippo Records, Ghoul, Rampage, No More, and Frogskin's record label. The bands on the album that I know thus far will be Ghoul on "Neat, Neat, Neat," Sick of It All on "Stretcher Case," Shovel on "Sick of Being Sick," Brainfreeze on "I Just Can't Be Happy Today," and Hose-Away on "New Rose." The album should be great since these indie bands, mostly from New York but not all, are real energetic and up-and-coming. This punk tribute album should be cool. The reason I mention Ghoul is because they used to do Soundgarden covers in concert. They love the band.

Well, the ideas are looking good on the web page! I don't mind either twisted fork picture. I definitely think that 'Posting with my good eye closed' should be written on the back on its own (as in, not written over the top of a fork or any other design). Oh, and while I quite like Steven's Kyle Petty shirt, I hope I am not alone in thinking that our Somms shirt should not have swearing on it. Maybe I'm hypocritical, but I'll say it, write it, read it, do it (!! - LOVE doing it), but I draw the line at wearing it. Anyone out there in agreeance? The writing font Steve used on the back of his shirt is excellent - if the 'Posting with my good eye closed' could be written like that all over the shirt back I reckon it would look perfect. Nothingman's idea of getting a count of who actually will buy a shirt is a good one. I am quite happy to gather numbers. So, if you are going to buy a list shirt, then email me with the subject title of "I WANT A SHIRT". Please do so by Monday, 4 March. I'll add up numbers and let you know how many we'll be in for.

In other words, a Leslie cabinet is a totally weird > guitar amplifier. A Leslie cabinet is an enclosed speaker structure inside which the speaker rotates 360 degrees continuously. Apparently this produces some bizarre sounds (like the intro to "Black Hole Sun").

Okay... a Leslie cabinet is definitely an amplifier. My friend just recorded an album and used one, but I've never seen one myself. I was told this: It's a cabinet with a rotating speaker, which also has a hole in it. It has a bizarre chorus-type sound (guitar players should hopefully understand that..), and the rotation makes the sounds occur at different places with different effects, depending on where the sound is projected by the speaker's rotation.

(tsk tsk) ************************************************* I got an idea that we can do it all on our own.....Soundgarden I'm gettin' bored and I need some kicks.....Violent Femmes ************************************************* ------------------------------ From: Carolyn Subject: shirts - important - votecounting Clown just sent me his shirt request (remember - subject title is to be I WANT A SHIRT), and included the size he wants. Probably a good idea. What sort of sizes do you have in the States? How about I take orders for either Small, Medium, Large or Extra Large. Sound okay? So - now when you email me with subject I WANT A SHIRT, include in the body of the message the size you want (only one of the above 4 sizes, please). I'll then list everyone's name and size they want next Tuesday and post to the list for people to check I've got it right before I confirm names and numbers. Then at least we know numbers and sizes before we go about getting the actual shirt printed. NB: So Seth, Geoff, Foreshocks, S0undgardn, John Schmidt and Ross - send me another note please, with your size. Thanks!

Yu can simulate it with just about any chorus pedal if you pump the rate up real fast and fuck around with the depth, assuming you play guitar. it's really cool, but, in my opinion, only if used in moderation. after all, we don't all want SG to sound like the Beatles all the time, right?

Have you ever wondered if one of us is ACTUALLY one of them? I don't know, perhaps one of you who don't dare to send you pictures for the member directory... Are you so awful that you really don't want to send it or are you kim in diguise? Or is it true that you don't have a scanner or you are really Chris making fun of the rest of us? Perhaps I am Chris myself but just submited a false picture... (taking a vacation in Mexico of course).
