I have a Cornell interview which I have yet to email to seth, but this is what chris says about touring in the future: "We have a lot of other tour offers but I'm not sure how long I wanna do it. We could do another US tour, we might do some more European shows, we're talking about South America. We don't wanna make the mistake that we made before where we commit to more touring than we can mentally deal with, so we're taking it one step at a time." Of course, he said 'we could', so it's not definite. If you want to read the rest of the interview, wait until seth gets it on the site.

You both have fishing poles in > your hands, but nothing is biting, yet. Chris starts singing a little > song, oh, your favorite SG song goes here, and it puts a smile on your > face. .......You finish the story...... (let you imagination go wild!!) > He then puts his pole down(fishing pole, you perverts) as the fish are still not biting. He sings the first verse to "Like Suicide", picks up his banjo and plays the tune while singing. Except now the song is about dead underwater animals instead of a dead bird. All of a sudden, the earth shakes and the lake water ripples into giant waves. Ursula, the sea witch(yeah, from 'The Little Mermaid') comes out of the water and says, "So, you sing about wishing underwater animals dead, hm? I'll take away your voice so you'll never sing again! With that, she magically brought his voice out of him and brought it into a jagged pebble hanging about her neck. With a menacing laugh, she said, "If you want your voice back, bring me the underwear of my archenemy, Mighty Drawls. It has magical powers that will help me rule the world!" I saw that Chris looked very sad, and said, "Don't worry, my beautiful one, I know that Mighty Drawls will help you in your hour of need." So we set out to Ben and Kim's World-O-Music, and I found some drums in the shop. I started beating a particular rhythm on the drums... And lo, and behold! Look there in the sky! It's a bird! It's a plane! No, it's Mighty Drawls! "I heard your distress call on those Tama drums", said Mr. Drawls. "How may I help you?" "My friend Chris here lost his voice to the sea witch," I said. "You've got to help him get it back, quick!" So with that, we went back to the lake, and there was Ursula, waiting. "I could feel the power of your drawers emanating from the sky," she laughed, wickedly. "Give me your drawers or you or your friends will never see the light of day again!" "Never, you bitch! You'll be no match for my elastic whips!" With that, Mighty Drawls, golden-haired god that he is, shot Ursula with the whips, but she retaliated against him. "Oh yeah, hot shot? Why don't you take this?" And she started to play bad music out of her butt. First it was Bush, then it was Hootie And The Blowfish. But Mightly Drawls went into complete agony when she played Paula Abdul and Vanilla Ice. Through his pain, Matt said through his teeth, "Bad music...must fight it...must show her...royal jewels!" Then with some kind of inner strength, came out of his agony and flashed her... "Aaaahhhhh! I'm melting...I'm melting...what a cruel, cruel world! Ursula turned into an oily black mass into the lake as she disappeared, never to be heard from again. "She was no match for my Calvin Kleins" said Mighty Drawls, proudly. So Chris did get his voice back, and eventually became a famous vocalist. Later he met with a golden-haired man who became the drummer of his band. But one day, as I was backstage at a recent concert, Chris saw the elastic tops of this guy's underwear and said, "Hey, those Calvin Kleins sure do look familiar..."

I was wondering how many of you SOMMSters out there are from the east coast.... And if any of you would be interested in getting together in or around the Baltimore or New York areas.. .

Soundgarden of course went off but crowd response was lacking in the second back row but of course me and my bro went totally feral and both worked our necks jumpin round for "Outshined" (highlight of the show). Oh yeah Lee "Head Down" was also in the encore....which makes 3 songs. My only complaints about the show were (of no fault of SG) the seats (its just not the same in the 2nd back row) and the security dude near the dunnies who wouldn't let us in cause our stamp was wrong way round (trying to transfer it doesn't work), and also that fat dude who kept comin on stage to pick up the mic and screw around with the gear.

I am at the moment trying to organise a holiday to both the UK and US, hopefully around August - September ish, and I'd be really chuffed if the SOMMSvention was about the same time, so I could go! My US trip will be short, only 2 weeks I think, and I'd like to travel around (road trip) the west coast. So, if any plans have been made at any time, I'd appreciate a mail response!

Ty Cobb. Now I always thought promos meant, that song would be released as a single, but Ty Cobb?? I seriously doubt the record company would be happy about that and 'hard headed *beep* you all' doesn't have a great ring to it. Of course we all wouldn't mind (Ty Cobb, not the beeping), but maybe it's not meant to be played on radio or mtv; maybe they're just releasing it as another limited edition thing.... just thought I'd share that with you.... >i just want to add something in real quick with people finding personal >meaning in Soundgarden's lyrics....... after reading The Making of >Superunknown book, 'The Day I Tried to Live" just became MY song. The same thing happened to me when I read the quote on 'Let me Drown'. I never payed too much attention to that song, but after reading Chris' and Kim's quotes on that song, it has a whole new meaning to me. I never really thought of the song that way (wanting to crawl back into your mother's womb), and that interpretation just blew me away... I have to agree with Kim, when he said that those were the best lyrics ever written (well, one of the best). sabrina ------------------------------ From: Lynne Low Subject: SG as background music Last night around 945P the familiar sounds of SG filled my apartment - MTV was using "Pretty Noose" as background music for part of their NHL All-Stars special.

I think that it is a very good song. On a side note, those of you who have been wondering about the reality of another Mad Season album, I just read a Screaming Trees article in which Barrett Martin (the drummer for the Trees and Mad Season) said that the next Mad Season album will be a double album, and that there has been work done on the album over the past six months. He said that there are lots of different styles being played on it. Now, he may have been misquoted, but it sounds like these rumors of Mad Season 2 are a little more than just rumors. That's all.

Hey SOMMSters... to start off I want to say that since Sunday I've been having problems w/ my mail & haven't been able to send or receive, = so if anyone wrote to me (besides Angela & Sebastian) and I haven't written back it means I didn't get your message, so please = re-send it. Anyway, if anybody has any more info on where to find bootleg= s, imports, etc. (via the net or elsewhere) it'd be much appreciated. Umm= m... in my opinion the most joyous SG song (though a lot of people might = disagree) is BUTOW... think about the lines "nothing's closing my eyes/no= thing can beat me down for your pain or delight" and "nothing can break = me at all." A lot of people I know think it's about killing everyone or = something, but it's not. To me it's an extremely empowering song, it's = about not giving up. Also, as far as the age/how long you've been listening issue goes... WHO = CARES!!! As long as you truly love SG and appreciate their music and you'= re not a trendy motherfucker or a groupie it doesn't matter if you're 9 = or 90, if you've been listening to them for a week of 10 years.

Also there is a full two page ad for Mesa/Boogie Amplifiers endorsed by S O U N G A R D E N, just a picture of a freaky lookin Chris and Kim and a more 'normal' pict of Ben. hm, anyway, just surprised me that they were doing those kind of endorsements for some reason, although im pretty sure its not the first time. - -pencapchew ------------------------------ From: AJCorsi@aol.com Subject: To Lisa Beckwith Lisa!!

Ha! It's definitely not the first time they've done endorsements for musical equipment. Mattster's got all kind of backing from people (Al would be much more informed about blondie's drum stuff ;-). I've got two favorite ads with God... ummm... Chris in them. The first is from Peavey (BMF era)... it's got Kim sitting on an amp holding his guitar, and Ben & Chris are sitting on the floor on either side of him. I loved this ad *so* much that I wrote to Peavey to get the full size poster of it. It's still hanging on my wall (what a total shocker). That also reminds me of my stupid ex-boyfriend David who said "I wonder why Matt wasn't in the picture?" :::smack smack smack::: Do I know how to pick them, or what?!? Anyway, the second ad was more recent ('95), and for a pedal - "Cry Baby 535." (Batteries not included.) Heheheh... Chris, Kim & Ben are all in it... but Chris is balancing himself on the pedal... and I think it's too funny. My sense of humor though... go figure. Anyone who wants some *excellent* pictures of Chris & Kim should backorder Alternative Guitar, issue 2. Very luscious stuff, kiddies. Makes you just want to eat Chris all up... and there's a picture of Kim wearing a woman's blouse that says "Diet Grrrrrl." And might I add here that the blouse is OFF Kim's shoulders and showing the top part of his chest. The guy is as smooooooth as Chris, I kid you not. He's *not* a hairy guy. ;-) Oh, sorry.

Anyway, the Feb. issue of AP(Alternative Press) has a Kim interview regarding his feelings on fans and their obsessions. It's pretty insightful as to what the band in general thinks of their following. Excerpt: Q: Saturday Night Live ran a Star Trek-conventions sketch in which William Shatner tells the trekkies to "Get a life". What do you think of obsessed Soundgarden fans, the ones who own soundboard recordings of all your German dates and have every poster you ever printed? Kim: That's pretty trippy. I really dont understand that kind of obsessive behavior. (hey kim..we definately do!) When I was younger I had every Kiss album. I knew all the songs in order, from side one to the end of side two [of every album]. But I didnt go out and buy every Kiss poster, every Kiss t-shit. I really dont understand that kind of behavior. (he really DOESNT understand that kind of behavior?) I do understand being a collector. I collect indie records and comic books, but I dont feel like I'm that obsessed. also he says that he thinks their presence is unapproachable maybe because..."Chris is 6'2, Ben is 6'4 and Matt and I are 6'. Matt 6'. When I met him he did not look 6' at all, maybe 5'10 or 5'11 and as for Ben 6'4, he didnt seem that tall either. To my great disapointment I didnt get to meet Chris so....6'2 sounds right. Well just thought I would share that with you all....till we chat again. Terri..... Oh yeah US mag..yes another mag, has a quote from Mr. C which was in details two months ago, it's on the last page.
