The weird thing is last week when I got the "Loudest Love" import the picture on the front is weird in that to me it looks like Chris and Matt have eyeliner on. Chris's lips look rather red and lush also(hold on hootchie's it's not going any further than that) the color on the CD is strange anyway which might explain the look BUT my first thought was look at our boys all glammed up!!!

Matt might come out and talk to us. I was down in Blacksburg VA this weekend (1 hour from my home) and stumbled onto the Truly CD "Fast Stories...From Kid Coma" for exactly $1. It's pretty good.

Just speculation. couldn't happen. when you grant rights to use a song in a soundtrack, you're only granting rights to that specific usage. some artists will let their music be used in a movie, but not on the soundtrack as i'm sure you've noticed. i don't see chris, OR stone/jeff granting blanket rights to anything, let alone their ToTD work. i really think it's just some moron at the tv show using the song without thiking about it. too much work for them to go and ask permission, so they use it until someone tells them to stop. *shrug* - --caryn ------------------------------ From: ThNrthFace@aol.com Subject: ...it's raining icepicks on your steel shore Whoohoo, They just played Jonny Cash's version of Rusty Cage on KISW.

Imagine Chris with his nails painted black with S-U-S-A-N tattooed on the knuckles on one of his hands. Kim would probably look more psycho. It would be strange to fans if down-to-earth Ben dyed his hair or if Matt shaved his off!(hey, these are just thoughts!) It would be a totally new image for the band, but maybe not one fans would like because lots of bands look that way today, especially with the bleached hair and vinyl pants. Metallica said that everyone has to change--who wants to see the same band with the same riffs each year? I have no complaints against soundgarden. They've changed enough, with Hiro leaving the band.

I'd just like to add that I really admire the band (and most of the other seattle bands) for retaining the rights to their own work by establishing their own publishers. it means that ben, chris, matt and kim all care enough about their music to keep control over its use, and that they are intelligent enough to keep this control out of the record company's hands. nothing against a&m, but I'm sure the band has a better idea of where their music should be played and who should play it. I know a lot of other musicians don't do this, and ultimately I think it is to their detriment. if you relinquish your rights, what are you left with? I just think this is another example of how the band controls their own individuality and destiny. btw, can someone fill me in on what 'ascap' stands for? ----------------------------------- a thousand doors, a thousand lies rooms a thousand years wide - words by kim thayil ----------------------------------- ------------------------------ From: estevez Subject: SONG TITLE ?

Repeat... this was only a JOKE. Had this been a serious post, it would have been followed by me getting the crap beat out of me by certain SOMMSters. ;-) You may now return to your regularly scheduled posts. Thank you, and good night... ------------------------------ From: Carolyn Hanel Subject: Bleeding eyes, Member Directory pics, Vikki GUESS WHAT? My eyes are near BLEEDING, but I've managed to whittle my = unread Somms posts back to ZERO!! [patting my own back] Anyway, whilst reading that, I was in the Member Directory to check out = the latest additions. Boy my net server is SLOW at downloading pic = files! Good thing I had the Somms posts to keep me amused while waiting = to see some of the photos! It was SO good to be able to put faces to = names. Can anyone tell me if Vikki is actually reading the Somms stuff these = days? I sent her a tape a while ago, to her new address, and haven't = heard from her yet. I just want to know if you got it, Vikki! Email = me, please.......... Over and Out from me and my bleeding eyes, Carolyn the Mashed Frog I just want to scream "HELLO"..........Pearl Jam ------------------------------ From: blind dog Subject: they say if you look hard...

I think there is something in there that might help you out :) (consider your experiment a partial success) ----------------------------------- a thousand doors, a thousand lies rooms a thousand years wide - words by kim thayil ----------------------------------- ------------------------------ From: eliza Subject: FW: New SOUNDGARDEN Web Site !! OHHHHHH MY.....if you check out NOTHING else on the new official site, go RIGHT to the SNL Pics - they are awesome!!! great shots of them on the set with Jim Carrey and Chris sitting on stage...Hmmm, just what i needed - more pictures to die over! chow listers- your Somms Deputy ------------------------------ From: vman@ctdnet.acns.nwu.edu (Vasant Ramamurthy) Subject: Something that really pisses me off It really shocks me the way people rip-off each other. I look at used CD ads a lot, and I can't believe the number of people who jack up the prices of "rare" CDs, because they know some poor fools will fall for it. The worst examples I've seen deal with Soundgarden. Some guy was selling Screaming Life/Fopp for $18! His tag line was "rare 2 ep set, on 1 disc". Gimme a fucking break. I bought mine at fucking Blockbuster Music. Another had Ultramega OK for $18 and Louder than Love for $16. You can get those at any damn mainstream music store. It really sickens me, because someday, some eager person wanting to get into SG will fall for the scam. Just disgusting.
