From: seth We seem to have a lull in list activity recently, so let me take this opportunity to urge newcomers to start some discussion. Those of us who've been on the list for more than a year are likely finding it difficult to come up with topics we haven't heard before - I know I certainly am. I know many of you joined the list and then saw a whole bunch of flames and ont a lot of SG content, so it's up to you to change that. Surely some of you lurkers went to see Soundgarden in Europe, but we only got a few reviews from list members so far; how was it? Tell us everything. Tell us what we in the US can expect to see on the setlist. Hell, tell us how many times Ben spit on the crowd, but say *something*. seth PS - Bonus credit to the first person to identify the lyric in the subject of this message. :) ------------------------------ From: Nigel Wilks Subject: RE: Soundgarden Digest, Sunday, 20 Oct 1996 If you type it in as you've put it it WONT get you there, however if you type http://www.ad-i.com/mlb/mother.html it works fine.

I stopped listening ever since Riki Rachtman went off and got his own show on KLSX. Poorman was cool too. I wanted to ask the same question--If SG have been on loveline, but I didn't know who to ask. Forgive me for assuming that you are a southern californian. If you're not, and you get loveline broadcasted to your radio station in the US, I can save you a few pennies and call KROQ(where loveline is based) and I'll ask them. I very much doubt that SG have been on loveline. The most convienient time for them to be on is when they tour here in LA. If no plans are made, I'll bug the hell out of the KROQ staff!!

Since the U.S. tour will start soon, I guess some of you who will see them there are interested in the setlist etc. I'll start with a list of the songs SOUNDGARDEN played (I hope it's right - me and my friend agreed on these): Badmotorfinger Searching With My Good Eye Closed Rusty Cage Outshined Slaves & Bulldozers Rusty Cage Jesus Christ Pose Superunknown Spoonman My Wave Let Me Drown Black Hole Sun Fell On Black Days Down On The Upside Pretty Noose Dusty Never The Machine Forever Ty Cobb Blow Up The Outside World Burden In My Hand Boot Camp No Attention Others: Helter Skelter + another cover I don't remember the exact order of the songs, but I'll give a few comments on a few of them after saying a few things about the opening acts: We missed the first band on the bill (ELEVEN), but got there in time to see MOBY hit the stage. MOBY and his band put on a good, entertaining show - I don't remember the names of most songs but a few of them were quite good. His album could be worth checking out - a lot of punk songs mixed with slower (better) heavy ones. In 'Everytime You Touch Me' MOBY thought he needed someone to dance with, so a girl from the crowd got up on stage for a while (the vocalis/ guitarist MOBY even switched with the drummer for a while so that he could dance with her as well. They also played 'PARANOID', 'PURPLE HAZE' and a bit of 'ROOTS BLOODY ROOTS' which served as real crowd-pleasers. Now for SOUNDGARDEN : Of course, they kicked off the show with 'SPOONMAN' which by the way is a great song to start a show with. The sound was good, Chris' voice sounded great and it all looked very promising.'SEARCHING WITH...' was among the first songs, and in the middle of it I got a bit worried. Chris had some problem with his voice - me and my friend looked at each other and feared for the rest of the show. After the song we thought we had it confirmed, since Chris croaked/ whispered 'thanks a lot' before the band continued with 'PRETTY NOOSE' and 'DUSTY'. Now the voice was OK again, and I though I had imagined it all (but hey - we both heard it right?). They went on with a few songs off from the last three albums, among others 'LET ME DROWN' and 'MY WAVE', both of them performed in powerful versions that made me "re-discover" them. The only disappointment in this part of the show was 'RUSTY CAGE' which was a bit too fast for my taste - in my opinion that one could have been a lot heavier (it sure is a great song!). Just as on the Lollapalooza tour, Chris played 'BLACK HOLE SUN' on his own, and I strongly disagree with some of the persons who reviewed the gig in swedish press. This was a powerful version by Chris, and his voice was just amazing (had we imagined the problems in 'SEARCHING...'?)!! (Why would SOUNDGARDEN do what 'everyone' expect them to do, i.e. play a song like 'BLACK HOLE SUN' like the version 'everyone' has heard?) Anyway, the band continued with a few slower tunes, like 'FELL ON BLACK DAYS' (which is one of my favorites on Superunknown) and the cover 'HELTER SKELTER'. I think this was the first time I heard the band play this song - at least I don't remember having heard them play a cover song that suited them so well. It was a slow "improvising-like" version that just blew me away. After this, they played a few more songs from BMF and DOTU, and here came the absolute peaks of the show. In 'OUTSHINED' SOUNDGARDEN was in great form - they seemed to have a good time (playing around a lot on stage), delivering a stunning version of one of the best songs on BMF. We even got a few smiles from both Kim and Ben, who played like gods together with Matt and Chris (the voice was more than OK now...). I sure hope all of you will experience the band playing as good as this. Other songs that's worth mentioning is 'BOOT CAMP' (short but powerful), 'TY COBB' (sing-along on 'hard headed fuck you all') and, of course, 'BURDEN IN MY HAND' (Great) + 'BLOW UP THE OUTSIDE WORLD' (Almost as good as 'Outshined'!). At the end of the show, the band brought the guitarist from MOBY's band to play the second cover song of the night. At least I think it was a cover, since I haven't heard it before - it was some kind of punk song (perhaps someone can help me out here). The last song before the band left the stage for the first time was 'SLAVES & BULLDOZERS' (yes!), in which SOUNDGARDEN got into an extended jam-part that was awesome!!! 'NO ATTENTION' was the first encore, followed by a real heavy version of 'JESUS CHRIST POSE' (could it be played another way?). Matt did a drum intro for this one, and when the crowd clapped along he seemed very pleased being able to fool us all by making us loose the rythm. Altogether, this was a wonderful show. The band was in good form, and they played most of the best songs. Of course, there are a few I would have liked them to play (Like Suicide, Rooom A Thousand Years Wide, Overfloater). As you may have noticed, SOUNGARDEN didn't play any songs from albums before BMF. I sure would've liked to hear at least 'Hands All Over', and 'Beyond The Wheel' wouldn't be too bad either. The show was in my opinion GREAT, so to me that doesn't matter too much... - ------- End of Forwarded Message ------------------------------ Subject: Big Dumb Sex Questions!

His "my dancing partner keeps throwing up" line on the DOTU pre-release radio show is a classic! He could quote the Karma Sutra(not sure of the spelling so please excuse my ingnorance) and Ben could demostrate the postions. Being Ben is the most flexible man this side of Gumby. Oh right so it's a radio show- Ben's great visuals would be lost. Chris could give the long time martial advice but he could also handle the 16 year old who calls and says; "There's this girl who likes me I mean really really likes me and she keeps putting notes on my locker and telling me what a sexy body I have.... what do I do???" and of course Matt could handle the "Burden in my hand" and the proper way to hold one's stick questions.

From: seth > Nov 10 will be my FIRST SG experience live!!!Just wonderin > are we allowed to take pics of them???? Nope. The band is opposed to having any more photographs of them taken than is absolutely necessary (read: what the management and label demand for publicity). Even people with photo passes are usually forbidden to use flashes, which makes shooting the band live a real pain in the ass. A photographer friend of mine recently shot the band (specifically, Matt) during the show in Rotterdam; he was granted permission to shoot from the stage, but was not allowed to use a flash. Of course, if you sneak a camera in and get some decent shots, I'd love to put them on the Web page for all to see. :) seth ------------------------------ From: gwm@starnetinc.com Subject: Ultramega Q's Hey, everybody, I guess since I'm a new member I should start up some discussion.

See everyone at the SOMMSfest > in Chicago, second night! Ultramega OK is a superb album, though the actual recording and mix aren't too hot. The album is worth it just for "Beyond The Wheel," but throw in "Flower" and "Incessant Mace" and you can't go wrong. There aren't any skippable songs on Ultra, in my opinion. And on an Ultra-related tangent, if anyone hasn't picked up the "Flower" single, do try to find it: "Toy Box" is an *amazing* b-side. Ultra also has its share of jokes: "665" and "667," which skirt the heavy metal tradition of 666, and which include lyrics and music recorded both forwards and backwards (the lyrics recorded backwards are the ultimate parody of all of those "hidden Satanic messages" - Chris screams "I need you Santa baby") and "One Minute Of Silence" (originally "Two Minutes of Silence," but they band eliminated Yoko Ono's part), about which the band said: Hiro: "We had a minute to fill on the record." Chris: "We appreciated the Lennon arrangement so much." Kim: "We thought it was so good, we could add a little something to it. It's the heavy metal version." Chris: "The real deciding factor was that we knew there wouldn't be any publishing problems, because you can't copyright silence." As for Screaming Life/Fopp, it doesn't hit me like Ultra and Badmotorfinger do, so I don't listen to it all that often, but "Nothing To Say" is one of those classic slow, heavy Soundgarden tracks that I love. seth ------------------------------ From: gwm@starnetinc.com Subject: disposable cameras Hey, can anyone reccomend to me a good disposable camera for pictures at a concert?

I was hoping that they would be announced as headliners for the big day out (which would make them twice co-headliners; much like lolla), but we get sepultura and the offspring instead :( but I still maintain that soundgarden *will* come down here after january first. the u.s domestic tour looks like it will end on december 11 in seattle, so after the band spend christmas and new year's at home, they can complete their world tour by doing the pacific rim, asia and little ol' australia :) ----------------------------------- a thousand doors, a thousand lies rooms a thousand years wide - words by kim thayil ----------------------------------- ------------------------------ From: blind dog Subject: when the forest burns along the road... this from addicted to noise - gil kaufman reports: this much we know: sometime in the future there will be a new album from the seattle supergroup mad season, whose line-up in the past has included alice in chains singer layne staley, pearl jam's mike mccready, and screaming trees' barrett martin. now, here's where it gets a bit sticky. according to sources in the aic camp, the instrumental tracks for the as-yet-untitled release have been laid down, and as rumored, they are plentiful enough to be spread out over two cd's. according to reports, there is a possibility that staley would handle vocals on the first disc with the screaming trees' mark lanegan taking over on the second. however, according to management, neither singers have opened their mouths just yet and, as far as we can tell, no lyrics have been penned. (ok, me again) now this sounds cool. it sounds a little iffy, and even though the managements involved won't talk of the vocal situation they *do* admit to the instrumental stuff, so maybe it will come around. keep in mind that atn reported a couple of months ago that members of soundgarden took part in these sessions. whether *that* is true is even more debatable; it is always useful to keep the salt shaker handy after reading music news of the world on atn (anyone remember their report that matt did a drum track for the _beautiful girls_ soundtrack?). about three months ago, I would have said there was no way that ben, matt, kim or chris could have been doing any extra curricular work - the release of dotu and all the other stuff that comes with the release of a record would have burned up too much of their time. but we now have confirmation from matt on upcoming records from both hater and the wellwater conspiracy (in addition to the contribution by kim to the smell the fuzz compilation) so I guess anything is possible. maybe some of this stuff has been squirreled away over the last year or two? I suppose that it wouldn't be hard to do, since most of the hater and wwc material would have been recorded in either matt or ben's basement. everyone just keep their ears to the ground and we'll be sure to come up with something :) ----------------------------------- a thousand doors, a thousand lies rooms a thousand years wide - words by kim thayil ----------------------------------- ------------------------------ From: vman@ctdnet.acns.nwu.edu (Vasant Ramamurthy) Subject: Half Who's that counting in "1, 2, 3, 4" at the beginning of Half?

Are they available? Can I get them? Has anyone > heard them? Please let me know. don't get too riled up just yet, lance. those two songs ('ocean fronts' and 'cleaning my gun') haven't been released in any commercial format yet. I say yet because my guess is that one or two of them may end up on the butow single, or possibly the single that comes after it (zero chance?). as for how the imusic guys came up with them, I'm not sure. I wouldn't think that chris would be generous with his lyric books, especially to a site that I don't think he has much to do with. ocean fronts is definitely the cooler of the two on paper. the lyrics are mysterious (dare I say mystical in a led zep sort of way?), and kim wrote the music; which makes me think there must be a tape of this somewhere, since it is at such an advanced state of completion. I personally like the songs where kim and chris collaborate, like on hands all over and kyle petty. if this song is released, I think it'll be a good'un. cleaning my gun, however, looks a bit dinky. I'd be happy to be proved wrong, but the lyrics sound too forced, not to mention *very* different to what chris normally writes. let's face it, the chorus is a long way away from cool obtuse-ness and metaphor of seasons or swmgec. I can imagine chris strumming this on his porch out in the everglades, the moonlight glinting off the spoon around his neck, and it makes me cringe a bit. like dusty but more so. I hope I'm wrong. just as an interesting aside, can anyone remember what was stolen from kim's room? I was thinking just the other night that it could be a replay of what happened to eddie vedder in europe (?) somewhere, and that kim may have lost demo tapes or music books to the rotten scum that rifled through his stuff. any clues? ----------------------------------- what I think I feel I know is wrong what I feel I know I won't for long heaven upside down looks like this place what I think I feel I know is numb - words by chris cornell ----------------------------------- ------------------------------ From: KAISERVRBL@aol.com Subject: Can I get TIX for the Seattle Concert? Hey listers, Me & a friend of mine want to make a pilgrimage to the Holy Land to see the Gods of rock play to a home town crowd. If there is any way to get tix, I'll gladly send the cash ASAP. We'd kinda like to know soon though, so we can get a cheaper airfare. If anyone can help out we'd greatly appreciate it. Thanx, Lance ------------------------------ From: caryn rose Subject: Re: Can I get TIX for the Seattle Concert?

Weill I guess it is really a couple of questions. First: Anyone know when exactly tickets go on sale? Noone at any Ticketmaster seems to know anything (duh, big surprise). Second: Who else is planning on attending the Vancouver show?
