How about other Seattle bands (i.e. Nirvana, Mother Love Bone, Screaming Trees, Tad,) You can't make a movie about SG and not talk about theri influence on the Seattle scene. Just a wierd ponderance. - -lance- "Love me to death because I need the sleep I'm wide awake" Chris Cornell ------------------------------ Subject: stuff of possible interest From: seth this has been pointed out recently, but i just want to reiterate: the mailing list has an irc channel, #somms, which can be accessed via any undernet server. it is not registered, and that's the way we like it, so it might not automatically appear in your list of channels, but if you join it and people are in there, there you go. in the past there were some regulars there, but i haven't seen anyone the last few times i've checked. on another note, there is a private mailing list section of the unofficial soundgarden homepage. if you follow the 'mailing list' link (or go to www.sgi.net/soundgarden/archive/), you'll find a password entry box at the bottom of the page. the password is [omitted -seth] - enter that and click the 'go' button and you'll be whisked away to our private page. seth ------------------------------ Subject: Soundgarden tickets in Seattle From: nadia I am in a huge fincial bind and I will be unable to purches tickets to the 2 Soundgarden shows here in Seattle :( This upsets me very much and no one I know is able to loan me the money (they're all poor). I've asked everyone I know, and no one can help. And since I know that a couple dozen of you will be buying tickets to the shows here in Seattle I was wondering if anyone would like to buy an extra ticket to each of the 2 show in Seattle with the intention of me paying them for it in about 3 weeks? (you would be in possesion of the ticket till I gave you the money of course) I would appericiate it greatly. This is my last chance to try to get tickets somehow or else I'll be one of those people standing outside with a sign asking desperatly for a ticket (for crazy prices). I don't want it to come to that cause it sucks (I've done it before). I know I dont post and I may seem like some stranger but I have to go to those shows and I'm desperate. If anyone could help i'd love you to death. Hope you all understand (that I'm not some crazy freak, just wanna see soundgarden). If you have any sugestions please send 'em to me... - -nadia ------------------------------ From: "Eshuis, Angela BHS" Subject: hehehe... just though i'd let you all know that i found my ride to the seattle show!!! :-) i'm smiling ear to ear...can't wait! -angie ------------------------------ Subject: Re: cover versions From: jsimpson@mail03.mitre.org (Jamesetta Simpson) >2.

I'd really like to see Chris record a duet with one of his siblings from IS (Peter, Suzy, Katy). I've never actually heard them sing, but they're supposed to be really good; I think his sisters do the back-up vocals in IS.

Guy said "all of the $25 discs were sold already". Um, and so I had just assumed that he had several copies of each (I hadn't had my coffee yet). Anyway, it's 10/25 and I haven't recieved anything from them yet, although they have taken out of my account the $24.50 it ended up costing. Kate A few weeks ago, someone on the list (Vasant?) mentioned that Yodelling Pig Records (or something like that) had two copies of SOMMS on hand. Well, I've been pestering them ever since. Seems all I ever got was an answering machine saying they'd get back to me. They finally did call back yesterday, but they said they'd already sold both copies. So... where did those copies go?

(melissa etheridge tix go on sale at 10, that's why it's not at 10). for those of you who haven't been to Mercer Arena before, GET GA TICKETS. the reserved tickets are waaaay up high and you can't go into the GA section. (i know other venues do it differently, but here it's done this way). If you go to an outlet, you should be fine. I wouldn't recommend calling for this one. There are outlets at Tower Records (Mercer, Udist, Bellevue), Westlake Center, and Blockbuster Music on Capitol Hill.

I discovered a new record store in my new neighborhood called Crow's Nest (in the Chicago Loop) and it's motto is that it's for "collectors". I finally found a place that sells import and single CDs! I picked up the Burden In My Hand single (not the part 2 of 2, but just the regular one) and Songs From the Superunknown. Jerry Garcia's Finger is way cool! So is She Likes Surprises, which sounds reminiscent of Applebite (or vice versa) to me ... The acoustic version of Like Suicide actually made me cry. Can't believe I'm confessing this to 600+ odd listers (and I do mean 'odd' in a friendly way)! If there's anything that can make me feel, its animals...

Alright, alright.... I am holding 9 tickets for Soundgarden at Crosby Hall November 30th in my hot little hands right now. I kid you not..I sure wish Ticketmaster knew what the hell they were doing, or hire people who knew what they were talking about.... Last night I was told by 2 different TM people, that NO SG show in SD was going on sale this weekend. So, I get online into TM website...and do a search by Performer, then Venue, then by Date. Nothing! Ok..Ok...so I wake up this morning...and I call again ...and TM still tells me "No...nothing for SG in SD. Then I get online, and I get word that they are going to go on sale this weekend by other sourses....so back to the phone I go, and call TM. STILL, they tell me no. I am scratching my head at this point...but, I am a very determined woman..so I keep calling, until finally at 11:00am someone tells me something that I want to hear, like "YES....ummmmm they go on sale today at noon."

I admit, jumping around to some of the harder songs is fun, but when people just full out run into each other and hit each other, that's when things get out of hand. I saw lollapalooza this summer and it wasn't too bad there. i mean there were the usual high, drunk assholes who don't know any of the songs and were hitting people, but it really wasn't too bad. But I saw Pearl jam at randall's island, and it was crazy. I was downright scared. People were literaly crying, and begging to be pulled out of the pit. And the crowdsurfers were another problem. Every 5 minutes I would get a boot in the head. It was annoying. It's hard to enjoy a show with people hitting you from all angles. I guess what I'm trying to say is that it's ok to move around a bit, but moshing seriously needs to stop, so does crowdsurfing. I thought i heard somewhere that Soundgarden doesn't allow moshing or crowdsurfing at the concerts anymore. Is this true? I know that Smashing Pumpkins and some other bands don't allow moshing anymore, hopefully Soundgarden will follow their lead.
