Pretty noose Fell on Black Days -"I think Chris decatited this to Tenderloin he did one song." My wave Dusty Slaves N Bulldozers Rusty Cage KickStand Ty Cobb Helter skelter/Bootcamp Black hole sun solo version BimH Outshined ~he said goonight at this point they left n came back. BUTOW JCP other fun notes: he threw water on us after he drank out of it. the Tech? came out with beer for the band. That was kewl. Chris flipped the crowad off. I noticed he did not announce the songs, like does he really have to? Ben did the solider march. Kim kept playing when it was over as he was walking away I could see him behind that whatever the hell it was. I was all over this place. Sorry earlier about the nipple comment but He DID take his shirt of n he was glistening with sweat hehehehehe. I was only kidding I didn't stare at them all night. LOL. I was too busy trying to mosh, the crowad was really polite, well expect for a few personal things. Oh Kim waved to where I was standing. I made eye contact with Chris n Kim. As far as Ben n Matt, Ben was on the other side was too busy I staring at Kim. The guy is amazing he is totally engrossed. Nothing destracts him. Well n Matt he was behind those drums couldn't see him too well. Oh I was studying every muscles on Chris mainly to see if he is healthy. (yeah right.) He looks fine he looks like he has been working out I think age has gotten to him or is. But really he is beautiful Oh YES I saw it for myself tonight KIM DOES have a bald spot so if Kim wants some of my hair since, I think we use the same shampoo he can have some. I have plenty to spare. Well enough for Kim.:-) I want to say I love them all. They somehow express what I want to say but I don't know how or can't find the words becuz actaully there are no words that can I say what I want to say just loud roaring guitars. Thank you, soundgarden for the excellent performance. Hi Foo! I am just a babbling fool really, Michele ------------------------------ From: Eric Gardner Subject: #19 goes to...and help #19 will be enroute (soon) to Kelly Lee. A lot of people were interested in the Skin Yard cd, so I'll pick up the other copy (if it is still there) for a future giveaway. Eric ------------------------------ From: tonerkin Subject: Where in Soundgarden's green earth are we???? I also went to the DC show and wanted to add a couple of things. It was great meeting some of the southeastern sommsters for burgers and music talk...we kept it pretty Soundgarden related, Seth!! Although who mentioned........STP????? Jamie was a gracious hostess and a good driver(OK so we did get lost after but only for a short while..I never saw that part of Virginia before) As for the show itself(which I know is what you are wanting to read) it was very interesting in that it once again proved to me how different this band can be!! And can I add the word "moody"???? Like has been said previously Ben was stapled to the floor most of the time. Kim seemed also quite calm and laid back. Someone gets a bogey for crackin Matt with a golf ball. Chris' voice was protected by very little talking, a lower registor on some songs and even longer instrumentals in the middle(Yes, I know there is some fancy term for what that part of the song is called but the hell if I can remember it..help me music major) Slaves and Bulldozers being particularily long...not that I mind hearing Kim shine anyway. NO TOOL SHIRT! Darn!! I couldn't read what Kim's shirt said very well could someone down front tell me for sure what it was?? Musically I thought they sounded just fine(accoutics weren't bad in the Patriot's Center) and wow did they have the top notch well-dressed concessesion stand staff.....they scared me they were so smiley and friendly!! Thought I was at the ice capades not a Soundgarden show. And the biggest news of the night was BEN'S TECH LIVES..........for all you that were afraid he wouldn't live through Ben's tirades he has and looks fine....no black eyes or broken ribs!! doesn't even look like he hates his job!!! toni ------------------------------ From: "Jen Kern" Subject: spring tour Hello, Hello!!!! Okay, I've been a SG fan for quite some time, but just recently decided to join the fan club. (Wow--my first fan club ever) Anyway, I just got my packet in the mail yesterday and they said that SG will be doing a spring US tour to hit all the places they missed the first time around. SO--keep your fingers crossed--they could be coming to a city near you! Sorry they didn't have any locations included, but I'm sure they will let us know soon. JEN ------------------------------ From: jbellace@cosi.stockton.edu (John Bellace, Jr.) Subject: PHILLY SHOW!!!! Well, all these flames call for a SG related post, so here it is. I was at the Philly show last night and all I can say is OH MY GOD!!! I sing in a band myself and I want Chris' s doctor whoever he is. If Chris was sick, he sure didn' tsound it. They opened with Spoonman, into Let me Drown, and then, believe it or not, Hands All Over which kind of shocked me. I was starting to get worried about his voice holding up during Pretty Noose, the 4th song, which didn' tsound all that great on his part. The next song was BIMH and those doubts were completely erased. ON that note... Does anyone notice a trend that Chris has trouble singing Pretty Noose?? I didn't think he sounded all tthat great on SNL singin that one either. Maybe it's just me... ANyway, the band played very tight with a couple rare exceptions. Matt was amazing as usual. And, by the way, Chris's solo version of Black Hole Sun was amazing and chilling. I had read some reports that some people found it flat and unemotional but I STRONGLY disagree. The songs played in no particular order were: Hands all over Rusty Cage Outshined Slaves and Bulldozers JCP Let me Drown My Wave Fell On Black Days BHS (solo) Spoonman Kickstand Pretty Noose Dusty Ty Cobb Blow Up... BIMH Helter Skelter/Boot Camp (which was fucking great!!!) ...and one more that I didn' t recognize. Anyone who was there know what it was??? Last thing... he may be able to play bass, but God is Ben a fucking asshole. No offense to the band or anyone on this list who really likes Ben. I completely admire his playing, but I didn't pay 20 fucking dollars to watch him stand there like he could give a shit. Then when he finally does move, he spits at fans, gives them the finger, makes rude gestures at women. WHAT'S HIS FUCKING PROBLEM??? I know this is old news on the list, but this was my first exposure to this and I wanted to wait and see it for myself. I mean if he's having such a bad time, step off and let someone else have a shot at playing bass for one of the best bands in the world. There are millions of people who would kill for a shot at what he has, and I'm just fucking sick of rock stars who act like its a pain in the ass to have people who love your work and pay lots of money to come and damn near worship you. If they don't want it fucking let some of us have a shot at it. I guarantee you we' ll appreciate the people who got us there. If anyone knows if he' s like this in everyday life, PLEASE let me know, because I' d really rather not dislike ANYTHING about SG. Anyone at the show, feel free to e-mail me with your thoughts. God, they were incredible... -J- ------------------------------ From: Mercyhurst Prep Library Subject: Re: Does Chris believe in God? Yeah, well, Mom Cornell has joked that they're all recovering Catholics, which probably has more to do with the religious references than anything! That's just a thought too..

Kudos to Seth in trying to keep the integrity of the list and the subscribers in focus to the true reason we are on the list, to talk about SG and related topics. Does anyone know for sure if there will be a spring tour? I hope so since I missed the recent Detroit show. Since I just recently moved to Michigan, I haven't found any avid SG followers. If there's anybody out there in the Detroit area, I'd love to go to the show if SG decides to come back anytime soon. I also hope they continue to play some smaller venues rather than the big arena gigs. What's the latest news on a new Hater disc?

For anyone raised Catholic I would say religion is a very ambiguous thing. The impression I get is Chris has a kind of rebellion against organized religion not necessarily god or spirituality.

Now that I've got me some more time I'll be able to write now. I don't think I even know ANYONE from here but hey that's allright. Did anyone from here go to SG's Philly concert at the Ele. Factory? I almost went but I missed getting tickets by about this ( --) much! What a major bummout! I was just wondering how it was. Someone please tell me! If anyone knows anyone or is giving away (selling) tickets to a concert in the Philly or NJ area email me... Last of all--about how everyone has been talking about Chirs being gay well I wouldn't care if he was. He is the best singer I have and probably ever will hear so if that's the way he want's to be let the man. Just because he is hot (which he is) that's not my reason for likeing him. Well I'll end now so I'm outta here. so someone PLEASE tell me about the concert or if you know about tickets. Thanx Pam art.underwood@compudata.com ------------------------------ From: "Audrey L.

Guess we won't be seeing any more Rolling Stone interviews with the guys. audrey ------------------------------ From: dumo13@erols.com Subject: Washington review! HEY HEY HEY!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Since I haven't gotten my Friday digest yet, some of this may sound stupid, but WE'LL SEE!!!!!!!!! Basically, this is my clucked up version of the Washington DC show First, I sped from school to get to Fudruckers in time to meet all the other DC sommsters! It was kinda cool how we were all standing and waiting and just turned to each other at the same time and said "Are you guys soundgarden people?" As much as I'd love to run down attendance, I have CRS from being in the pit all night. Jamie, Greg da thug, Dylan, Sean, Jamie's friend from chicago, and two really great people from Marshall high school. The food was okay and at around six I went to go wait in line. Got there in time to hear bits and pieces of Rocket From the Crypt's soundcheck. Had my mind made up right there that they weren't going to be worth listening to... Eventually we were let inside, i bought my tour shirt, and proceeded to the floor to secure a good place. Sean, Dylan, and I coaxed the pitcrew to pass a "hi from SOMMS" note back to the band. I think he thought I was on crack when I told him to tell Soundgarden that the SOMMSters said hello. Tenderloin came on around 8:15 and I was really impressed. Sure, the singer's a fatass, but the band really rocked hard. No one in the pit really had a clue what was going on, so I really got to hear the music. YES, Ben and Matt came out and did a song with them. Onto Rocket from the Crypt... they need to go back to the crypt! The only thing I took away from their performance was that they have some monkey boy who serves to attract thrown objects away from the important members, the singer talks way too much, and they're too full of themselves. I bet you'd like to hear about some Soundgarden, huh? Well, needless to say, I was really woried about the show quality with Chris having laryingitis and all, but the band came out and rocked all the same. They opened with Spoonman and of course the pit went crazy. By the time the band stopped playing I was more than 100 feet from where I began. Like I said, if you want a real setlist, here is not the place. Throughout the night I stayed in the pit and lost 6 pounds in sweat. Tell me I'm not dedicated! As for the setlist, I kept thinking, "this must be the greatest fuckin' soundgarden setlist ever!" They started out with a lot of new songs from DOTU... Pretty Noose began with, "yep, this is a song about the bitch -- Stupid Bitch! I didn't love her... I don't even think I liked her!" After much crap thrown onto the stage Ben jumps up to the mike, "Hey! Are there a lot of golfers out there?" CHEERING"Well, why don't you keep your balls at home... FAG!" Chris: "DId y'all come here to throw shit or hear some music.... THat's what I thought, now if you see someone throwing shit, just punch 'em in the face..." Then they played Ty Cobb. It ruled, except they had the drummer from Tenderloin out and he fucked up a bunch. I was kinda disapointed. The band really gelled when they went into the Badmotorfinger stuff. They played Helter Skelter into I believe it was Boot Camp. It was all very slow and trippy. BUt like I said, the BMF shit was on. Slaves and Bulldozers was absolutely the best song I've ever seen live. Even though Chris' laryngitis came through on BHS, he STILL hit all those high notes in Slaves and BUlldozers. It sent chills down my spine. Kim soloed behind his back and Ben responded by grabbing his crotch. BEN RULES!! Overall, the night was magic. The band knew it and so did the fans. I caught Kim looking over and bugging out his eyes and going, "WOW.." During some point in the show, Chris severly dissed Rolling Stone. "I'm gonna come to all your houses and wipe my ass on your fuckin' Rolling Stones" He was refering to the Magazene... any ideas why? The last song was JCP. It was okay. People were almost too full of SG to take that big a helping of JCP, but it was the perfect closing song. Of course all the dummies got upt to leave before the encore. Chris comes out and says, "hey, we're gonna let all the people in the seats leave, and then do an encore." heheheheh The night was finalized by Kim coming out on stage and chugging a can of beer. How fuckin' cool! EQUIPMENT: A lot more teles than has been mentioned before, the regular MEsa's , Kim uses a HUGE effects board & cry baby wah. Ben mostly stuck with the Precision, but looked like he was using a washburn as well. Anyone with questions can email me. I know this is a terrible review, but like I said, I stayed in the pit the whole time and can't produce an accurate set list. Thanks, Chris ------------------------------ From: eliza Subject: Re: prepare yourselves Well, damn my reply key straight to hell - i did NOT say reply all!!! grrrr...forgive me folks for cloggin your mailboxes with nonSG stuff... Anyway, I have been thinking about what I posted earlier - about Hands All Over...I realized that I do not remember reading the setlists from the first 2 shows on the tour (sorry, was totally absorbed in Chicago)...can someone confirm for me that they have NOT played Hands All Over up until Philly? tanx- eliza At 03:07 PM 11/22/96 -0500, you wrote: >fyi, just saw them a few nights ago in a venue that hold 1000 people >max....they were *totally incredible*...i was so completely blown >away...have a great time! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ I walk these streets alone, shadows hide my face My sins are etched in stone, never to erase My fears unshakeable, if I could believe I'd trade these wings of gold, for what I really need ------------------------------ From: eliza Subject: Re: SOUNDGARDEN Video i would love one - what do i need to do?

Spent my last 15 bucks on it. I think it was worth it, just for the pictures alone. Theres this really funny one with kim giving the finger to the camera. And just on the radio someone requested they play Sg's version of Into the Void, and the dj actually had it, and played it...the whole song.
