Maybe it was that Jeff came up with the *idea* of the spoonman song (during the Singles days?), but that Chris executed it? Lastly (sorry for the long post), I bought plane tix last night for the Atlanta/Omni show. I know that there are still show tix left, but not great ones, so i am wondering if anyone has extras to sell (before i resort to the dreaded scalpers--my brother called and they were charging $75 for seats in the stands!) also, if i have time, it would be cool to meet fellow sommsters. i am hoping on doing the same at the dc show 3 days before. soundgarden on the brain! later, laura ------------------------------ From: Andrew Dunn Subject: Re: moshing/spoonman/atlanta show > I know that some, if not all, of these are parodies.

I think Chris wrote Spoonman, played it, and Jeff named it, It's in the coffee shop scene if I remember correctly...

It would probably be a good idea to bring ID to the > show as well. Actually my last conversation with Silver Management was last Tuesday, October 29. At that time I was told Erin was missing some last names from the list I have been compiling since tickets went on sale and that she needed them by Weds. morning. I was able to get the names I needed (thanks to quick work by Eliza, thanks again Eliza) so its already been taken care of. Unfortunately if you've joined the list recently you probably aren't on this list and we will not know what you should do until I hear from Erin again. I don't want to bug her with additional names this far after she needed them. So, if you aren't on the following list and are going to the Chicago show on November 9 email me and I will let you know what Erin says when I talk to her again.

(And, if you didn't >get too close to the guys with the razors in their hair, it was safer). I agree. I saw Fishbone play tons of times. There was always a pit-but a user friendly pit. If someone fell down, there was an immediate hand to help them up off the floor. Now it seems it's people just trying to injure other people. As soon as those assholes started pushing at the Hater show on thurs, i stepped away from the stage because it's not worth getting hurt for music. (It is supposed to be enjoyable). I'm sorry the Somms gang didn't move back a little because you could see the stage really well & keep out of the pit. But they get my utmost respect for keeping their place. I really hate having to concentrate so much on standing up that you don't concentrate on the music. I'm dissapointed that the OK bouncers did nothing to control about 5 kids who had nothing better to do than pick on some women. I've never seen it that rough from just a handful of assholes. I must add, that musically, it was the best I've heard Hater play.

Mosh in the back or in the bathroom or something. Or get some friends to go to the parking lot and beat each other until you're bloody and broken. A lot of us want to watch the musicians on stage who are playing music. I bet some of you forgot that actual people are on stage at concerts performing music. As a musician myself, I have to worry when I go to concerts that I may be injured, and a broken wrist or fingers would make it hard to create and perform. How can you pro-pit and pro-surf people be thick enough to argue in favor of this? If the guys in Soundgarden were in the crowd at a show you were at, would you do anything that could injure them? I sure wouldn't, and I hope you wouldn't either. Dylan ------------------------------ From: "mcinturff, dylan" Subject: re: MOSHING A lot of guys don't like moshing either. I sure don't.

I've had it happen to me, and Caryn has my deepest sympathy for her experience at the Hater show. I used to wonder why the pit has moved closer and closer to the stage over the years. I have a theory- I think that the people that get the most agressive want to make the band look at them and think that their violence is cool. I believe that the people that pick on others in the mosh pit do so to attract attention, and moving the pit to the back would defeat their purpose, which is to get the band to look at them. People who say "if you can't handle it, then go to the back" should take a good look at their own motives. If you are not looking at the band, then why do you need to be in the front? Ah-ha... you need to be in the front so the band will look at you, right? Most hard-core moshers will admit that they do not look at the band. So why don't they let those of us that want to see what's going on on stage be up there? Why bother to even pay to see a band live if you're not going to look at them? If it's for the energy generated by being in the same room with the performers, is the back of the room somehow devoid of energy? So hey, moshers, why not move the pit to the middle or the back of the room instead of trying to smash loyal fans like Caryn, Shroomy, and Chris?

So, at this time, it is my duty to make him an honorary member of the KTMS. Now, I would like to thank Chris Mansfield for restraining me when I was going after the fuckhead at the Hater show wearing the glasses and the leather jacket. I had my arm back and fist clenched and I was getting a running start at that asshole when Chris tied me up and pulled me back. It's a good thing I guess, because I would probably be paying the guys hospital bills from my jail cell. Two thumbs up to Shroom for grabbing the guys glasses and dutifully stomping on them. The look on his face was *PRICELESS*. Great form in the stomping action too. I gave it a perfect 10. If stomping on glasses is ever an olympic event, Shroom is a sure thing to win the Gold.

Murphy" Subject: Matt and Sean's drums from "Alaska Airlines Magazine", October 1996, reprinted without permission: "...one Seattle enterpreneur hopes to revolutionize the entire industry... Al Adinolfi of AP Boom Theory combines digital technology with music and physiological principles to produce Spacemuffins, a drum set that can recreate the sound of any drum imaginable, plus those of other instruments. Unlike standard electronic drums - which are basically sets of flat rubber pads mounted with a sensor - Spacemuffins are a modified acoustic drum set that looks and feels like real drums. Adinolfi, the company's president/janitor (as his business card reads) developed Spacemuffins out of frustration at the musical limitations electronic drums and the damage they caused to his wrists and back. A drummer since age 8, he says a drummer's greatest fear is repetitive strain injury. The likelihood of developing carpal tunnel syndrone, tennis elbow, or a variety of injuries to the back, legs and knees is extremely high. After nearly four years of experimentation and several equipment loans, Al created a solution: a regular drum packed with foam rubber and piezo wafers - small ceramic caps that are normally used in electrocardiograms. Now drummers can get the sound and volume they want without stress to their bodies. He estimates his initial investment in these one of a kind drum sets was $30,000. Spacemuffin converts include Matt Cameron of Soundgarden and Alice in Chains' Sean Kinney. Interestingly, Adinolfi says his biggest market may be the more than 75,000 church music ministries across the country. Because drums are their only instrument without volume control most want to use electric... Technically complex, Spacemuffins are the work of a true artisan. Adinolfi assembles each made-to-order set by hand, working up to 12 hours a day, seven days a week...he sells close to 70 sets a month. Prices range from $1200 to $4000..." anyone know anything else about this situation? anyone seen/heard these drums in action? dan =========================================================================== danno@wood.net / levitan@u.washington.edu He Who Laughs Last Thinks Slowest and if you don't vote, don't bitch.... ============================================================================ ------------------------------ From: endless_nameless@prodigy.com (GRRL NIKI FREER) Subject: along her veins parade... hey guys, check this out. i wrote to minutes120@aol.com and complained about the lack of SG videos (namely, flower, SU and TDITTL) and this is what i got back. personally, i think it's hysterical considering how the host acts to every person on the show. but i dunno, maybe i'll keep my eyes peeled tonight... mind riot << Start of Forwarded message via Prodigy Mail >> From: MINUTES120 Subject: Re: Soundgarden videos...
