I actually think I can actually contribute some real information! . . .unless, of course, you all already know this . . . . . . but in Guitar magazine (I think the one that Thayil was interviewed in), there was an ad for Crybaby 535, and it had Chris, Kim, and Ben pretending to "surf" or something on the Crybaby 535s . . . so it would be my EDUCATED GUESS, that the specific Crybaby that Kim uses is a Crybaby 535 (unless they just got paid a lot of money to endorse a product they don't even use...). . . which I happen to have by coincidence . . . good choice Kim!

Maybe ill like it more when i hear the whole song and its not on Real Audio. They just put it up last night at the official page. Theres this whole bio of moby there and on the top there's a "Soundgarden European Tour '96." However, there is no info on whether or not he's going to be in the american leg of the tour, in fact theres no info about him being on the european tour except for the banner on top, just a bio on moby. Ha! Getting up at 8:30 AM does have it's rewards...not really. Oh silly me, I just checked out the European Tour Page on the official page and theres a page for each of the three opening acts: eleven, moby, and sponge. hmmm i betcha the next single will have that remix on it. well enough rambling.

Okay, look, I'm comming real close to dropping this list. Let me tell you a story: my mail server has been down since Tuesday night. I get my digests today and find 75% pathetic bitching and complaining. Is this to highlight the other 25% that are fantastic? Some of you are so frigging PC and anal that it's enough to make me spit. Just shut up already! Okay, so you think that Jessica is a slut... good, say it once, make your point, and maybe a rebutal. this isn't the slaughterhouse. And what's up with these one line postings? Stop wasting my freakin time with your crap! ANd these elementary flames; try having a point next time. FACT: the stupid 'S' kinda looks like a swastika, if you're on crack and you think that "all the little pigs have god" is offensive. okay, i don't think anyone needs a cross-race, cross-ethinic survey on this do we? Maybe I'm wrong. YOu know what?? I'd really like some response to this too, responses from the lurkers and from those who post worthwhile messages pertaining to the band. I'd atleast like to know if I'm wrong so that I can get the hell off this list if I am. Thank you Chris ------------------------------ From: dumo13@erols.com Subject: re: guitar stuff, mildly SG related Here's the answer to all your questions! (aren't you happy?!?!) The S-100's that Kim uses have a really cool tone. They have a rich element in the bass (rhythm) pickup that the Gibson (epiphone) doesn't have. BUT those Guild guitars IMHO are otherwise pieces of crud. THE SG V. LP The SG is lighter, brighter and is SO much easier to play. THe Les Paul on the other hand has a fat tone like no other guitar. Basically, without boring you, the LP is a better guitar, but the SG has a brighter tone (ie. if you tune down to S.Gardenland you will not hear oatmeal thru your speakers) I chose the SG because it's got a lighter strat feel and has the humbucker sound. Trust me, buy the Epiphone, but not before you try it out on your OWN amp. You'll get the soundgarden sound you want, but not if you have a crappy amp. NEVER try anything out on a crate. Try a new Fender Hotrod amp, like the Blues Deluxe with all the od and distortion and crank out some riffs. FYI there's a new EPIphone SG "custom" or "deluxe"... ASK FOR IT! It's a hell of a deal and is so much nicer than a Gibson! Chris ------------------------------ From: "Mo" Subject: Vinyl and stuff Hewo. Got two new vinyls today, need a bit of help wif 'em. Um... ok. 1. I got an "Incescent mace" and "Blood Mosquito" 7 inch single. Red vinyl. On a label named "Big seven Inch records". On the back, there is a picture of Matt, Chris and Kim. It's all kinda red. It says "Track at Early Recording Bf1988 Outake" on the back aswell. Is this rare? What the hell is it? It's not on SST. On the front there is a pic of the band. 2. Got another black vinyl... it just says soundgarden on the front. It's totally blank on the actual vinyl. On the front there is a pic of Chris. On the back there is a pic of the band. Written at the top is "outtakes" and it says "Thank you (Falettinme be mice elf again)" and... "everybody's got something to hide", anyone have any clue to what this is? I can't play both of 'em coz my record player's broke... Thanx for the help.

If you read up on Moby... he's like, the anti-garden. Very interesting person. He also incorporated a techno? version of BHS into his live act during his last US tour...which may be a reason he's touring with SG in Europe. Now if only the *official* people would release the 2 remixes 808 State did for "Black Hole Sun". :-) Steve ------------------------------ From: alister@aztec.asu.edu (ALISTER WILLIAM CUNNINGHAM) Subject: Trades New Blind Melon Hello All, I am new to the list and I'm looking for people to trade audio and video with.

Jake will make his feature debut with "The Gun". Incidentally, I didn't know that he directed Outshined, but he did direct Fell on Black Days as well.

No offense taken at all. In fact I think you are 100% right. I was thinking about this after reading a couple of posts from people wishing he'd let his hair grow long again and I started thinking "Yeah, if he was still 26". I've grown to like his hair short, because, like Shroom said, its the face and eyes, not the hair, that make him beautiful. Besides, I read in an old article that when Kim first met Chris, Chris looked like a marine to him: short hair, square clothes, etc. So, as I've said before, maybe this look is what Chris is more comfortable with. He always talks about how uncomfortable he was with the sex god image, and the hair kind of went along with that I guess. Anyway, I couldn't picture him with the long hair now either.

As far as I know nobody here has commented negatively on you or anyone elses age. Don't be so defensive :) If you read the list regularly you'll see we write about lots of things. If you'd rather read about something else why don't you start a new thread instead of complaining? Just my .02.
