Supposedly starting at 7pm. I'm sure they will be playing the promo heavily today, so we (and anyone else) can double check.

Chris ------------------------------ From: Greg Bensimon Subject: Re: Mailman and Lolla Info O.K., I've got it. I think I can put all of this speculation about Mailman to rest once and for all. Listen to the song carefully. Obviously, the song is about Utah Jazz power forward Karl "The Mailman" Malone! (And if you believe that one, I've got a fantastic little bridge in Brooklyn I'd love to sell you...) As for real content, I heard on 98 Rock this morning that tickets for the July 16 Lolla in Charleston, WV are going on sale this week. Check out the Lolla home page or the TicketMassah home page to buy tickets before they're released to the general public on Saturday. Also, for those who care... I made it down to the Freakness Festival at Fells Point in Baltimore on Sunday. I got to see Laughing Colors (excellent local band, for those of you who haven't heard them yet), the Hazees, and Dishwala, among others. Anyway, me and my friend Buddy are walking up Broadway in Fells Point, when we come across this guy on the pay phone. He's got the bleached out hair, earings all over, this lime green shirt on and plaid pants. As we get closer to this guy, we hear him on the phone saying, "Happy Mother's Day, mom!" and we're kind of thinking to ourselves, "Oh yeah. Check out this loser. Calls his mom from a pay phone in Fells Point (the bar district) to say Happy Mother's Day. Doesn't even bother to go visit her." So me and Bud make a few more wisecracks about this guy and keep walking. When we get to the top of the street, there's this guy with a stroller kind of laughing, and he says something like, "I can't believe no one's mugged that guy yet." We're like "Who?", and he says "The guy on the phone. That's the lead singer from Dishwala..." Sure enough, it was. Talk about feeling like an idiot. Here we are busting on this guy, and it turns out that it was probably the only phone he could find where he'd have some semblance of privacy. Anyway, I thought it was kind of funny. Sorry I took up so much space... Greg ------------------------------ From: "Mercyhurst Prep Library" Subject: Re: (no subject) Fellow listers!

But that's ok, 'cuz tonight is the Rockline party thingy and they're going to show us ALL of SG's videos. Which means not only will I be able to post on PN, but also on Flower!! HAHAHAHA!! HEY!!! If anyone manages to get through to SG tonight on Rockline... make sure you mention the list!! SAY HI TO US AND SETH!!! Give the web page a plug, or something!! And, ummmm... tell Chris that I want his sexy body. No wait, tell him that I would drive 500 miles just to drink his bathwater!! Heheheh... JUST KIDDING!! Umm... just kidding about the telling him part. I meant the other stuff. I really would drive all that way just to drink his bathwater. SICKO STRIKES AGAIN!!!! Thank yew.... thank yew... (Heheheh, Dena!) My mostest sincerest apologies AGAIN to those who have been writing me and not receiving responses. First official weekend of summer, y'know. Had to ring it in properly. That being done, I'm going to check ALL of the thirty million messages I had waiting in my mailbox, and I'll get back to y'all by Wed (I hope). I just barely glanced over most of 'em. One post that did catch my attention though, was by someone who said they'd shared a cigarette with Kim. This is interesting, because I remember reading that Kim is kinda freaky about sharing things like cigarettes, drinking after people, and stuff. In fact, that's where the song "HIV Baby" came from, isn't it? Ummm... I think it was in the Alternative Guitar magazine. Lemmee check... Yeppers, I was right. It's a paragraph on the song, written by Kim: "I wrote the middle and ending riff, but Chris wrote the lyrics and Ben (Shepherd, Soundgarden's bassist) came up with the title, which was based on me, because I don't like sharing people's silverware, drinking out of other people's bottles or sharing cigarettes. I'm pretty uptight about that. Ben said to me, 'Wow, Kim, you're a total H.I.V. baby!" (laughs) Hey Deb... I'll bet you can get past that though... heheheh... I read in the paper today that Lolla tickets will go on sale May 22nd on the Lolla web site. They said there was no date for regular ticket sales. This was in regards to the Bryan, TX show. Oh wow... I heard this rap song while I was flipping stations in my car this weekend, and there was a part of it that summarized Chris wonderfully: "Baby, you are ALL that, PLUS a bag of chips!!!" Shroom PS... Ms. White-Out, puh-leeeeeze forgive me for not writing?? I promise I'll make it up to you!!

The songs that tell the story of my life are Fell on black days, during difficult moments (a lot of times), and TDITTL because of the "I learned that I was a lier, just like you" dedicated specially to my dad (it's good he doesn't read my mail). Also I want to say that it's going to be very hard to read the messages now that everybody will listen to DOTU, because we won't have it here maybe for several months, and I'm looking forward to get it!!!.

Burnett" Subject: BLOWING STONE What's up with the asshole rob o'connor, at rolling stone dogging DOTU? i mean, granted, he has heard it, which most of us haven't, but he draws all these bullshit comparisons........ "But where Superunknown confronted Soundgarden's perennial identity crisis by expanding the musical attack into pop and psychedelic rock, the band's fifth album heads straight for the jugular, eschewing innovation for the simpler payoff of just rocking out...... ...."Innovators of the seattle scene, they are the band most responsible for rewriting the heavy-metal handbook to exclude glam and get down to serious business......." ........But even with all four members writing, the best the band comes up with is the same ol' metal machine music......The band comes from an underground stoked by its hatred for the limited perspective of the hair-metal bands of the '80s. Now clearly the mainstream, the group has the opportunity to expand it music beyond the ususal rhythms and attitudes that have already been established. It's a shame that Soundgarden don't live up to the challenge...." All I have to say about this is we can be fair, and hear the album before we rip this dickhead a new asshole, or we do it now. either way, e-mail this cocksucker and tell him where to stick his review: rollingstone@echonyc.com subject: rob o'connor, the flaming dickhead Include email address and phone number. - --------O But it all makes such Sense to me i need room to breathe I work for the goals that i set Wasted time it weighs on my mind You can bet I can't wait one minute more - -----CIV ------------------------------ From: Chris Farley Subject: IRC Tonight for the simulcast.
