Big Dumb Sex God Obsessions... ------------------------------------------------------------ From: Justin Wonderlick Subject: Randall's Review!!! Well after leaving at 10:00 am from Lewisburg, PA I went off. Sorry Vikki if I missed you I didn't get the message until after I came back!!! Hmmm... were to begin.... Well after what seemed like a week SG finally came on I was bit late to get seats, although I still came 5 minutes before SG I had squeeze and could only make 5 rows back!!! IT WAS FUCKING CROWDED!!!! Well they opened with spoon, I know that!, but I forget the rest. Someone threw a tennis ball at Ben, that pissed him off so he flicked the person off and the whole crowd cheered!!! That was after Chris told everyone to kill anyone they saw throw anything up on stage. Vikki where were you during the concert, I was on the left close to the middle seperators. HEY SHROOM!!! Chris took his shirt off for ya!!!(I thought of you when he did it! as well as the thing Chris said about never doing that) For those that said that they liked SG better than Metallica at Lolla, hmm.. I'd have to disagree although SG was great, they didn't have the effects like Metallica. Vikki can testify for this one, I was 3 rows back and after a pretty heavy song I thought Metallica was just getting a breather and giving us one!!! Well after silence for a couple minutes all of a sudden the fucken stage BLEW THE FUCK UP!!!! I mean the crowd was thrown back a couple feet!!! the Bouncers had to get away from the front and move back, there was a cloud so thick that you could'nt see through about 300 feet high, everyone couldn't breeth or see the smoke was too intense, fire pouring upwards from the stage flares going up above the stage!!! I'm mean it was so FUCKING GREAT I have to say it twice IT WAS FUCKING GREAT!!!!!!!!!! then all of a sudden James started to play and a yellow light shined on him from behind, still with smoke rising ( I don't know how he could breath!!! Well thats about it besides the fact that when I got home at 3:30 am my head was still ringing!!! JUSTIN *****KIND IS A STATE OF MIND***** ------------------------------ From: Justin Wonderlick Subject: You guys are weird!!!! You know youre obssessed with Soundgarden when you fucking read through all the shit(I mean interesting and informative ideas/comments) that people put on this list!!! You know youre obssessed with Soundgarden when write that your obssessed with soundgarden... ...hmmm makes sense uh? JUSTIN hmmm... ...I wonder how many people this is going to piss off? probably the more obssessed ones uh? I wonder how long we are going to go thru therapy/discusions this time? ------------------------------ Subject: It's almost party time... From: seth I've been working on this Chris Cornell birthday celebration thing for the Web page and it occurred to me that there's another birthday to be celebrated only 8 days later... This list will be one year old on July 28. Party's at my place, people. seth PS - If anyone has any ideas for something they would like to see as part of a Chris Cornell birthday celebration on the Web page, please let me know. I've already put together some stuff that will help contribute to senseless rock star idolatry, like a Chris Cornell wordsearch, virtual birthday card, trivia quiz, and image gallery (which contains what I consider to be some of the best photos of Chris). If there's more stuff you want, tell me. PPS - You know you're obsessed with Soundgarden when you create a website for them, start a mailing list, go as far as soliciting ideas for a Chris Cornell birthday celebration, and continue to insist that you're not obsessed with Soundgarden. ------------------------------ From: ThNrthFace@aol.com Subject: Feeling Minnesota Soundtrack Hiya everyone, I was checking out some CD release dates, and low and behold, a movie called "Feeling Minnesota" is coming out. It comes out on the 30th. But anyway, someone out there really must like Outshined to title their movie after it's lyrics. Hmmm, maybe it stars Ben as the psychopathic killer who uses people's heads as beer steins. And there will be pauses in the movie where Kim explains on a cosmic level the imagery used and how it pertains to his cat. I think I'm getting a bit carried away here. I don't know if Kim really has a cat or not, but he could. And Chris is an exotic dancer who is obscessed with people named after fungus. And last but not least, Matt is a cowboy in the wild west who is transported into present time. Yeah, and he carries two clubs instead of guns. Hmmm, maybe I should go back to bed. Ohh, how we all wish this movie was about Soundgarden, but no. We would have heard about already it if it were. :( On his way to the assylum, Aaron "young girls and gin may be the cure...."-Reverend Horton Heat ------------------------------ From: JASNL@aol.com Subject: Re: SJ Lolla To The Guitarist-2001: I'm going to the San Jose SWALLOWpalooza. (And I won't be writing a review, because 1. No way I'm going to try to write notes in that zoo of people and 2. It's damn near the last date of the tour, so what's the point?) Let's try to hook up (anyone else going to that show??). Continuing my fave train of thought thus far: You might be obsessed with Soundgarden if the music store sales guy gives you friendly shit for buying everything in the store that SG is associated with. And then your face turns many shades of red. You might be obsessed if you leave work early to read the SG digest. You might be obsessed if you stay up until 4am reading the digest. Every single night. And then have to go to work the next day. On 3 hours sleep. You might be obsessed if your husband gives you shit for spending so much time online and you feel guilty 'cos you know almost all of that time is spent reading...yes, you know what... You might be obsessed if you try to distract your husband while you're downloading some picture of SG so he won't see what you're doing. (Please, won't the screensaver come on now...) You might be obsessed if yeah, you noticed Chris giving the Jacksons a standing ovation the first time it was aired and you were personally embarrassed by it, as if it were a reflection on you. You might be obsessed if you're obsessing over this e-mail and hoping it never gets back to the spouse. Is there any hope for us??? Medication??? Electroshock therapy??? Please advise. - -- S. ------------------------------ From: rea47935@pegasus.cc.ucf.edu (Rick Agrait) Subject: Re: You know you're obsessed with Soundgarden when..... this is a really cool idea btw whoever thought this post up. seth are you gonna post these?? - -you know youre obssesed with soundgarden if you check seth's and the official page EVERY day to check if there's any new soundgarden stuff. - -you know youre obssesed with soundgarden if you go to all those internet music chart places and vote for every soundgarden song 5 times per day. - -you know youre obsessed with soundgarden if you wear the kickstand shirt to church. - -you know youre obsessed with soundgarden if you go to every search engine on the web and query soundgarden then look through every entry till you find something soundgarden-related you hadnt seen before - -you know youre obsessed with soundgarden if you have to go to sleep every night listening to a soundgarden song. - -you know youre obsessed with soundgarden if you have to listen to soundgarden as soon as you wake up to get going (forget coffee, try ty cobb) - -you know youre obsessed with soundgarden if you email imusic every week bitching at them to update the page. - -you know youre obsessed with soundgarden if you email A&M to update their soundgarden information. - -you know youre obsessed with soundgarden if you buy their releases on vinyl too, even though you dont have a record player. - -you know youre obsessed with soundgarden if you tell all your friends to go to camelot music and bitch out the employee there who told me that superunknown and down on the upside sucked. - -you know youre obssesed with soundgarden if you just spent 20 minutes thinking of reasons why youre obssessed with soundgarden so that you could email other people who are as equally obsessed as you are and share with them your reasons. - -Raul ------------------------------ From: "Mailman" Subject: Re: AHA!!! > standing up and applauding.

I saw Kim, > too... but he didn't bother to get up. I didn't notice Susan Silver, but > that doesn't mean that she wasn't there. It only shows them for a second, > and then it goes back to "the Jacksons." Pretty fucked up, considering Chris > supposedly despises Michael. Or was that a more recent development? Shroom, maybe he being sarcastic? He could just be making fun of all the Jackson fans that were clapping, I don't know. Also, does anyone know what the extra track on the Japan verson of "Upside" is? Mailman - ------No SG Content Below Here, I'm Sorry------ did anyone at any of the Lolla's catch what the Screaming Trees set was? I saw them before Lolla started in Minnesota, but I wasn't able to get to Iowa to see Lolla, and I wanted to know if their set was the same. ------------------------------ From: erin@planet.eon.net Subject: Re: It's almost party time... >PPS - You know you're obsessed with Soundgarden when you create a >website for them, start a mailing list, go as far as soliciting ideas >for a Chris Cornell birthday celebration, and continue to insist that >you're not obsessed with Soundgarden.

You know you're obsessed with SG when your best friend (who also loves SG) hands over any rare SG stuff she finds in a CD store because she knows that you'll bitch until you finally get it. (Thanks for that, Brandi.) That's all for now. It's early and I'm being yelled at to clean my room (ARGH!!)

If your and debt and can't go to Lolla, but your girlfriend feels so sorry for you that she pays for a whole trip knowing she'll also go deeply into debt, your obsesssed with soundgarden. If you went up to everyone wearing soundgarden tee-shirts at lollapalooza asking if they are Grote or B.Kinser, your obsessed with soundgarden. When you sit around and compare forks with other fans, your obsessed with soundgarden. When you own 4 copies of the new vinyl and wont part with any of them, you are obsessed with soundgarden. When your girlfriend says you look like CC to bring your spirits up, you are obsessed with soundgarden.

So for those of you interested in where your messages go when you send them to somms@mit.edu, here's the list: Argentina Australia Bulgaria Canada Croatia Czech Republic Denmark Finland Germany Hungary India Ireland Israel Italy Japan Latvia Malaysia Mexico Netherlands New Zealand Norway Peru Philippines Portugal Slovenia South Africa South Korea Spain Sweden Switzerland Thailand United Kingdom United States So Soundgarden fans are a pretty diverse bunch of people. Cool. seth ------------------------------ Subject: Obsessed by all this obsession! From: tonerkin@usa.pipeline.com (Tonerkin) You know you are obsessed with Soundgarden when you read umpteen "why I am obsessed with Soundgarden posts" and don't find them strange! Wow! what a great diversity we have. A variety of languages also! OK, all you people with different tongues(not the pierced kind or extremely long ones) Can we see the name Soundgarden in some different languages??? Just think how *impressed* people will be it we can say Soundgarden 20 different ways! You first, Jai !!!!!!! Toni ------------------------------ From: erin@planet.eon.net Subject: SG by any other name.... Well, here's SG in French: Jardin du son (if you want to be all gramatically correct about it, it should be le jardin.. but who cares?) or Jardin du bruit Pretty normal, I guess.. Of course, names stay the same no matter what the language.. But it's still pretty cool to know them... Erin. ------------------------------ From: erin@planet.eon.net Subject: more obsessive stuff Yeah, I know all of you people are sick of seeing messages from me, but I don't care. I have a few more obsessive things: You know you're obsessed when... - -your dreams have soundtracks of SG songs - -your 6 year old brother says SG is his favourite band because he's heard their songs so often - -you eagerly anticipate the end of commercials every time a DJ says "And after this, Soundgarden" even though you know you've heard the song a million times - -you consider buying DOTU in the jewel case even though you have it in digipack already - -you find it impossible to concentrate on anything while listening to SG (I made a SERIOUS mistake studying for the math final to a background of Ty Cobb) - -you seriously consider reaching over the counter and throttling the guy behind it when he says that SG are overrated when you buy one of their CDs - -the people at the record store see you and say "Sorry, we still don't have any new SG stuff." I'll shut up now. No more posts today. I promise... Really. But tomorrow's a whole new day.

From: jsimpson@mail03.mitre.org (Jamesetta Simpson) > You know you are obsessed with Soundgarden when you read umpteen "why I > am obsessed with Soundgarden posts" and don't find them strange! Do I hear Aaaaamen! You know your obsessed when you spend your Saturday hitting every used CD shop and record store looking for SG stuff at a reasonable price for other members of the SOMMs mailing list who are obsessed with SG.... And enjoying every second of it... You know your obsessed when your friends and family ask you, "When are you going to grow up and stop listening to that music". And you say "NEVER"!!!! You know your obsessed when you buy side projects by SG members and you don't care for it. Except "Hater", love it. You know your obsessed when you buy the tape and the CD for all their music, instead of just making a tape from the CD. You know your obsessed when you find that the CD Plus that you have had for the last zillion months and doesn't work in your CD ROM at home, works in the new PC you just got at work and you stay later (very late) just so you can play it. You know your obsessed when you tape only the parts of the movie "Singles" that have SG in them. Okay, I taped the AiC part too - couldn't pass up Jerry now could I.. :-) You know your obsessed when you keep listening to a SG song even when it reminds you of someone you love and they no longer love you..

Sorry, but you've lost me there. It was good up to that point... but then your message just kinda stops flowing like it used to. Chris found out he was a sex symbol a little bit after the release of UltramegaOK. He got a little bit shy after that... but still left his shirt off and left his hair long. If anything... he used the goatee as a way to try and hide his appearance... a la Badmotorfinger. >Soundgarden >never really liked being referred to as a metal band, anyway, so I9m >sure they felt having a singer who is regarded as a major sex god makes >them look to many people like even more of a stereotypical heavy metal9 >band, especially when that singer seems to be actively promoting that >image. He hardly promotes it. He's married. He's in love. He's not a womanizer or a one-night-stander. It just kinda happened to him. But now he's just calmed down a lot... but he was trying to hide the image back in UltramegaOK's days. Oh... and if you weren't aware... Louder Than Love was a metal parody album. It pokes fun at each and every piece of butt rockin', devil worshipping, womanizing, alcohol abusing, coke-snorting, poor white trash rock star out there - mainly with Big Dumb Sex, but the whole album in general. If they would have gotten their way, it would have been more clear to the general audiences, but A&M had to subdue it a bit to make it appropriate.

He's been covered up entirely for about four years now. He had no clue he was a hotty until it was brought to his attention in an underground mag in 1988 or something. And I've seen pictures of Chris live, he doesn't look like the same sexy and well-defined god that you're making him out to be! Only before the Motorvision tour was he in good shape.

Oh wait... Susan Silver is probably reading the digest, and now she's gonna get Chris to keep his shirt on for the whole show. Ummm... I SWEAR TO GOD I'M HARMLESS, SUSAN!!! I'd NEVER EVER look at your husband as a sex object!! And if he ever came up to me and said "Hey Shroom, let's get naked."

(Like RIGHT NOW). - - You know you're obsessed with Soundgarden when your very best friend asks if he can borrow one of your SG bootleg CD's, and you laugh in his face. - - You know you're obsessed with Soundgarden when you take your most treasured SG collectible (like the Screaming Life orange vinyl), and you put it in a safety deposit box so nothing happens to it. - - You know you're obsessed with Soundgarden when your local indie store gets their new catalogs in, and they automatically order SG stuff for you without question ('cuz they've been informed like 30 million times of what you already have). - - You know you're obsessed with Soundgarden when someone compliments the band, and you take it personally. "Man, that Soundgarden song ROCKS!!" "Why, thank you!! Thank you very much!" - - You know you're obsessed with Soundgarden when you can spend almost 7 hours straight on the phone talking to another obsessed person, and never stray from the topic of SG once. - - You know you're obsessed with Chris Cornell when you start getting mail addressed to "Mrs. (Shroom) Cornell." (Thanks to my friends for that one) - - You know you're obsessed with Soundgarden when you spend hours and hours attempting to play a SG song on your guitar, even though you know that no one would ever be able to recognize it but you and maybe another obsessed fan, if you were lucky ('cuz you suck so bad). I TOTALLY suck, swallaw AND gargle at the guitar.
