(Just a note that the guy who knew who it was liked me so he bought the cd knowing I liked it, pathedic eh?). I ended up getting tackled and hit in the face. So now I have a huge red mark on my face and a sprained finger just to listen to some decent music. People are very irritating at times. Just thought I'd let ya'll know.

Sg were of course great, but I was a little disappointed. They were very loud, louder than the bit I saw of Metallica (who, even if you don't appreciate their music, put on a fantastic show,just too much sun too sit through it though!) but too much so, the sound was distorted. But more than that was the length of their set, they played under an hour, probably the same amount of time as Devo (who were a kick to see, love those yellow suits!) and they only did two songs from DOTU, "Pretty Noose" and "Ty Cobb". I really got the impression that they didn't want to be there. What clued me off? Well, how about when they opened with "Spoonman" and in the backing vocals where Ben is supposed to say "beat the rhythm with their bones" he in stead screeched "stick this bass right up your ass!!" to everyone in the crowd! Don't get me wrong, they played well, Chris's vocals were strong and Matt was incredible, but they are obviously fed up with the Lolla crowd. It didn't help that this was Metallica's hometown crowd, even their fanclub was there pushing their wares!! Not alot of SG diehards, I saw more Sid Vicious t-shirts than SG shirts!! Two of the other high points of the show for me was first, when Chris was playing BHS, Matt was in the back of his drumset raising his arms up, swaying,laughing and trying to get the crowd to do the same. And then, right before "Ty Cobb", Chris broke into his spine tingling version of "I'm a little teapot, short and stout...here is my handle...."! Noone else around me found this humorous, no taste! As for fashion, the same as everyone else has posted except that Chris decided to trade in his black shirt for a day glow orange one, which, no, he never did remove!! The show ended on the same note, Ben throwing something back at an audience member who was foolish enough to attempt to throw something on stage. He pelted the guy pretty good too! Good show, just too damn short!! I can't complain though, I realise that alot of you haven't seen them in along time, or maybe not at all. Hopefully their own tour will be a helluva better experience for them!! ------------------------------ From: caryn rose Subject: #somms - insomniacs unite the list thug and i are currently inhabiting somms. come join us! - --caryn ------------------------------ From: JASNL@aol.com Subject: SJ Lolla Hi everybody! Just got back from Lolla in San Jose. I'm afraid my post will ramble on and on. (Now the time the time is now, sing my song.) VENUE: Let me first say that Spartan Stadium sucks. By the time we got there, the parking lots were full so we had to park 3/4 mile away. This, combined with the fact that the freeway signs led us to the airport, meant we MISSED a couple of SG songs. DAMN. I fail to understand why bands play there at all: the main metropolitan areas here are S.F. and Oakland, and San Jose is an hour away. The parking is sketchy and you just gotta pray your car is in one piece when you return. We had our tickets checked ON THE STREET before we even neared the gate, plus the bathrooms are soggy and foul. Trying to get home, the traffic police spun us in complete circles around the stadium!! MUSIC: Well, SG were great musically, except for a couple of parts in FOBD when the guitars were not in sync. But the sound kicked (even from outside, as we were running to the show!) Overall, their mood was pretty good. Kim didn't look too bored and Ben was manaical and actually smiled a few times. However, I thought their energy was a bit low. There was a bit of banter, but if I recall no "good night", even (correct me if I'm wrong, anyone else who went). Chris did tease the people sitting way up in the third deck: "Thank you...especially you people in [section] 202. But not you in 207. And the people who really suck are those motherf**kers up in the box seats. Why don't you just go home and watch T.V.?" (something to that effect, anyway) Ben also at one point started saying, sarcastically, "...how could he hit that girl...?" I am not certain the crowd understood the reference. Which brings me to... AUDIENCE PARTICIPATION: ...not much. Which is good and bad, really. No one was being crushed or injured, and objects were not being thrown at the band, but on the downside, people seemed too mellow. I was by far the most active person in our section (about 30 feet off center stage, and about 3 people back). On the upside, I was flailing like a madwoman and when I looked up, Kim was looking at me and smiling. (Last time I saw them, in '94, Kim stared at me for a full three minutes. No kidding!) I'm sure I stuck out in a crowd of people who looked like they were posing for a photograph. Plus my long-ass blonde air flying around. The mob did NOT understand the solo version of BHS at all. Too stunned. I liked it. CLOTHING: Chris: black jeans and bright orange T (which he kept on the whole time -- Doh!) Ben: black jeans and white T. Kim: black jeans and...can't remember shirt. Matt: could not see the man at all. Mickey Mouse and Metallica: ...ever notice that mosh pits always spin counterclockwise? Is it because water flows down the drain counterclockwise in the Northern hemisphere? Anyway, we went up into the seats for Metallica, and we got a bird's eye view of 3 mosh pits going, one big one with two little ones in a triangle formation. I swear it looked like a big spinning Mickey Mouse. Very entertaining, as were the fireworks and various pyrotechnics. I had to put my sunglasses on, it was so bright. All in all...can't wait for the REAL Soundgarden tour!! But glad we went. They're always worth it!! - --Sally ------------------------------ From: JASNL@aol.com Subject: SJ, partII I forgot one detail about the San Jose show, and it relates to a recent thread. In the middle of "Outshined", Chris sang "...feelin' that I'm sober, [someting unintelligible, but not the usual words]...not(?) drinking...". Did anyone else catch this, and if so, what exactly was it he said about his (somewhat public now) vice? BTW, I've seen Hovercraft, and did not like them at all. Bass (Beth) and drums were not locked in with each other, guitarist was interesting, but film show was not (seen that type of thing too many times before: rotting fruit, decaying animals...all in time-lapse photoraphy). The set was basically one long instrumental. Sorry, Beth. Ciao, babies. Sally ------------------------------ From: JASNL@aol.com Subject: oops...Part III Damn! Sorry, I keep rememberin' lil' details and want to share them with y'all. Chris' shirt said "Clean & Serene" on the back of it. Another reference to the drinking thing? Hmmmm...

Jamie (Psychic Village Idiot) ------------------------------ From: targaz@primenet.com Subject: cover tunes Hey, if we're gonna have the guys cover old stuff then it should be songs that have unrealized potential, not just stuff we already like. While moonlighting at Exide Battery this summer, I have been forced to listen to way too much classic rock. However there has been one benefit: I started collecting *OLD* cool songs for SG to cover. Try these on for size: "Stealin'" by Uriah Heep and "Jump Into the Fire" by Harry Nilsson. Anyone who has heard the second song will know why I picked it. There are vocal parts that Chris could do so much better than the original, not to mention the music. The first song just seemed to fit the rebellious fuck-you attitude of the bands early years.

Subject: San Jose show Howdy sommsters... Well,I managed to scam a vip pass to the San Jose Lollapalooza and Grab an onstage spot so I figured I would share a few impressions with you on the Soundgarden performance. Basically,they rocked.Absolutely the best performance of the day.The sound was great and all members seemed in fine form.Definately a well-oiled machine.Here's what I can remember... Chris was wearing an orange t-shirt,black jeans and engineer boots...he seemed in a fairly up and mischevious mood,and addressed the crowd quite a few times..vocally he was very together,except he kind of blew himself out a little on 'Rusty Cage,...he was a little weak on the next song,which was a weird Chris and his guitar only a-cappella version of Black Hole Sun...The crowd went crazy when he started,then once it was obvious it was *only* Chris and his guitar the crowd seemed to get really confused...I know from past conversations with him that they are totally sick of the song,yet feel they must do it in some form...it was a pretty interesting thing...at the end of it there was a 'smattering of applause'.He did a pretty good job of talking to the crowd,harrassing the people up in the air-conditioned box seats "...what's up with you motherfuckers...why don't you go watch us on television?..."He also sang a weird little ditty right before 'Ty Cobb" sort of poking fun at Kim's "incident"...at the end of that song he threw his mike out in to the crowd.Chris looked pretty good,and was prowling all over the stage... Ben was wearing a white T-shirt and his leather pants(seems pretty attached to those) He was in full form,fucking with Chris on the second mike,teasing the crowd,strutting around pulling faces...at one point he threw a tennis ball at Kim...seemed like he was having a blast. Kim was on the opposite side of the stage from my vantage point,and gave a pretty-straight forward performance...all in black... I had an excellent close-up side view of Matt,which was great because usually you don't get to see a drummer that well,but I could watch his every move..The guy expends such an amazing amount of energy..it was just insane..the whole drum kit was simply bending in front of him..he was wearing this big "Fuck You Crew" shirt with a bloody skeleton hand giving you the finger,and a pair of black and white shorts...at the end of the set he threw his sticks out into the crowd...some lucky person has got themselves a fine souvenir... The other interesting thing was that at the end of the set Chris roamed around backstage,still playing weird feed-back shit on his guitar for about 5 minutes...teasing the crowd into thinking there would be an encore...heh... It's interesting to see the level of choreography these guys actaully use in a performance...there where 3 guitar and bass techs tucked away behind various stacks pre-tuning different guitars and basses which where perfectly handed off in a seemingly casual manner during breaks... over-all definately the best performance all day.

Well, it's good to be back home after a long vacation. I've spent the last 2 days catching up on the last 35 or so SOMMS digests. (Can't bear to miss even a day!) Since I was in a foreign country, I got no music news whatsoever. When I came home, I was shocked to learn about the axeing of Jimmy Chamberlain and the unfortunate and perhaps unwarranted arrest of Kim Thayil. Anyway, I was perusing alt.music.pearl-jam yesterday, and I saw a thread discussing who is a better guitarist, Mike McCready or Kim Thayil. Kim was pretty much winning the votes. But a few said McCready is better. Their arguments were that McCready has superior composition abilities, Thayil doesn't write much, Cornell is the main man, and other various crap. Hello? Ever listen to UMOK and SL/Fopp? The songs on those albums are just completely awesome displays of guitar power and sheer energy. Nothing to Say, Circle of Power, Tears to Forget are classic examples. Limo Wreck, Never the Machine Forever are newer masterpieces. My god, is there any doubt who's better? Why even bring up the question? Thayil rocks McCready any day. McCready's good, but isn't up to Thayil's ability, skillwise or musically. Those silly Pearl Jam fans. Just kidding, I'm one too.

I'll only be there til 11PM eastern. Hmmm, perhaps that means that WWE have lives and the teenie-boppers on #Metallica can't get dates? Love, Cyn ------------------------------ From: "Steven Russell Jr." Subject: SG on realaudio? Hey list! If anyone is sobor enough to figure it out...the announcer just said that SG will be performing on Realaudio in a couple minutes. Could it be another ruse? Good luck! Steve ------------------------------ From: rea47935@pegasus.cc.ucf.edu (Raul Agrait) Subject: sg on lolla real audio thing soundgarden is on right now!!! playing spoonman!! i guess they changed their minds. the sound quality isnt that bad. me and steven are in #somms listening if anybody wants to come over. - -Raul ------------------------------ From: Die Subject: Re: #SOMMS okay people #somms is basically empty come come on we don't have all day all good liitle soundgarden fans unite : ) die ------------------------------ Subject: Sommsfest 96 From: tonerkin@usa.pipeline.com (Tonerkin) I have the solution to our private concert problem. Let's have a Somms convention!!!! Picture this Sommsters from all over the world coming together at a Holiday Inn(OK I guess the first one will have to be on Seth's stomping grounds). We could have the BIG SOUNDGARDEN SWAP MEET. Everyone bring their SG stuff to show off, trade and fight over. Maybe even trade a hunky hubby or two. Soundgarden look alike contests. Pageant for "Hootchie of the Year". Ben's spitting contest(who can spit furthest and most accurate) Essay writing on a variety of subjects in one hundred words or less: Why Kim should go free. Why I want to have Chris's baby Why Matt should bring back drum solos. A contest of Name that Soundgarden tune( I can name that song in three notes!) A tee shirt making workshop. Another workshop in IRC for us in the computer knucklehead catagory. The possiblities are endless! And for the finale a private Soundgarden concert in the Holiday Inn lounge! toni ------------------------------ Subject: a conspiracy From: seth Well, there were about 4 songs from Soundgarden's set broadcast via RealAudio, and then it died. The announcer came on and said that there would be no more Soundgarden stuff tonight -- he mentioned that although there were only 4 songs, they made Internet history by broadcasting SG, "because SG won't even go on the radio." They did broadcast "Waiting For The Sun," though, so that was cool... seth ------------------------------ From: "Steven Russell Jr." Subject: SG cybercast???? Hey list! there is a possibility that Imusic (Management) will allow SG to broadcast their set tomorrow night if we bug them enough. The CJ (CyberJockey) doing commentary for the LollaNet broadcast last night said... If you email Imusic enough times...they might play SG tomorrow night The email address is: comments@imusic.interserv.com last nights set sounded very good for realaudio (surprising good!). They played 5 songs: Spoonman Searching.. Let Me Drown Waiting for the sun Pretty Noose then the CJ jumped in and said someone in the SG camp pulled the plug. Oh well....the person with the most emails to Imusic wins some sort of prize. (maybe your domain will get k-lined :-) Steve ------------------------------ From: rea47935@pegasus.cc.ucf.edu (Raul Agrait) Subject: #metallica takeover attempt well we tried and we had shitloads of fun doing it last night. i managed to suck up and get ops in #metallica. seth, aaron, caryn, a bunch other ppl were there. we almost had the whole channel take over. we un-opped everyone of them except for one of them. we are all now banned from #metallica :) well i must go sleep now that was fun. - -Raul ------------------------------ End of somms Digest [Volume 2 Issue 204] ****************************************
