Kim was interviewed, I'll try to transcribe it sometime (man it takes a long time to transcribe stuff! Still working my way through Kim's interview on JJJ). Then they showed Spoonman live, which was good, except they cut it off about 3/4 of the way through, which sucked because all the other bands featured got their whole song shown. The other bands on it were Frenzal Rhomb, Supergrass, Powderfinger, Fear Factory, You Am I, The Prodigy and Soundgarden (Offspring wouldn't allow themselves to be recorded or interviewed because they are too 'punk'. What a bunch of arseholes) Anyway, the footage was really good, good camerawork, good sound.....I think maybe us Australian sommsters should maybe arrange to get in touch with Red and see if they could be able to sell us a tape featuring the whole set...that would be awesome. It was from the Sydney Big Day Out incidently. I'll be mailing them as soon as I get the chance. Some things of note. Kim was asked questions about the knights of the soundtable, how nervous they get, the name of their publishing titles (like in one ear out your mother). Not a lot much else, it wasn't too extensive. I thought an interesting bit was when You Am I was being interviewed though and when asked about Soundgarden, Tim Rogers seemed 'real' pissed off. Then the interviewer asked what Soundgarden thought about the change in musical style that You Am I has had and then Rogers seemed even more pissed off, and rambled something about Soundgarden and the way he was talking it seemed like he hated Soundgarden. Weird I thought. The interviewer's just gone 'ah, maybe i shouldn't have asked that!' Well anyways, bye for now! - ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- - ------- "My mind is open to new ideas. The divine mind is inexhaustible.

(a sigh of relief) I have been hunting this CD for months now. But it is not yet mine. I had to make a bid for it and I will not now if I get it till the 27 of Febuary. I will keep my fingers crossed. Pray for me... Please let me get it. Please let me get it. Please let me get it.

I looked on the discography and it is not even mentioned. Could someone please shine some light on this for me. Their selling it for $14.99. Lisa B ------------------------------ From: Redodin@aol.com Subject: Re: painted blue across my eyes... In response to the thread on the amount of album versus recording we would like to see SG do: Sept.96' Drum article in Seth's website. Cameron: Well, I just like making music with the band. It's still full of surpises. I think this record is a good example of that. So I just see us doing more records, and probably a little less touring, because that's the thing that can chew up a band more than anything. We're a really good studio band, so I hope we can taper off the touring end of it in the next couple of years, and maybe try to do a couple more records, and see how much more we have in us. Right now, though, the well is definitely full. Everyone has more tunes, and I'm anxious to get us back in the studio fairly soon. Well? That's out of one of the horses mouth's.If that is close to what they actually do then that probably means no spring or summer tour anywhere.And hopefully they do more than a "couple more records" if they slow down the touring. Personally this put a couple rain clouds in my sky, hope wise ,because I have only had the chance to see them once.Needless to say it was the best show I have ever seen.But I want to see them more.At least 8 more times!!! *smile* I guess the Superunknown shall be revealed soon enough. And whatever they do is alright with me as long as they are together. Cause I heard it in the wind And I saw it in the sky And I thought it was the end And I thought it was the 4th of July - -Cody ------------------------------ From: Rita Bonofiglio Subject: dumbest thread of the year (yay me) the following is useless information: i just came out of the shower, humming some soundgarden song and it HIT ME! this is more usefull: i would like to know what sg songs YOU hum/sing/scream in the shower...is this not a dumb thread?!?! just intrested though...i usually scream beyond the wheel, you know, good screaming, releases frustrations (i mentioned this alredy didn't i?) oh no......someone help......i'm having a shroom inspired, hootchie madness thought cross my mind.........chris singing beyond the wheel in the shower.....wow, heaven help.............. is anyone listening does anyone care? ure friend till the end - -----rita b. teenage angst has paid off well now i'm bored and old (sorry, i'm listeing to nirvana as a type this, feel obligated to honor them with closing quote...by the way, kurt was not murdered...do any of you care? why did i write this, i'll shut up now BYE!) ------------------------------ From: eliza Subject: time crept up on her...she's early gray just had a major time warp/reality check.. this pseudo-friend of mine came over to pick something up, and I had Screaming Life blaring...I think Nothing to Say was on when she got here... anyway, she actually said to me, "Who is this?

I looked at her like she must be kidding and I realized she wasn't....I replied with "THIS MUSIC IS TEN YEARS OLD - TEN YEARS!!!!!!" and then i started to lecture her, saying stuff like, "These guys were doing it first, way before your little alterna-grunge wanna be bands - dont you get it?" but i stopped myself... not worth the fight or the argument...but man did it get my blood boiling...and she had the nerve to ask me if I had bought the new Silverchair CD yet *argh* (sorry Car ;-) anyway, just had to vent... eliza -wishing i could snap my fingers and go back to '88.... **************************************** 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 - --CC ------------------------------ From: Andy Subject: Tool is pretty cool.

Dave here, my first post (don't judge me, 'k?) in reply to Rita's interesting (read: weird!) thread-start about SG songs in the shower. Nice bit of alliteration there, sorry I'm in the middle of an English assignment. Anyroad, the best larynx lasher in the shower is either Kyle Petty... or else She's a politition, both B-sides I think. Feel free not to flame me if I'm wrong. Anyone know where I might get the tab for Birth Ritual? I know i'ts a really easy song but I'm really bad at the guitar.

Probley because my computer kept disconnecting. But all in all I found a few things including 2 concert CDS. I am sill debeting rather to get them or not. Does any one have Noise is the Perfect Word or The Garden Grows? These are the concert CD titles and if someone has them maybe they will e-mail me and tell me if they are any good and the set lists,Please. Once again so many CDS so little money. I did find Flower for 1.99. And I made a bid for Loudest Love. If I don't get Loudest Love I believe I will be emotionally scared for life.

I guess some of you on this list also like Alice in Chains so I just figured it would be a good opportunity to promote my Alice in Chains homepage, it's located at: http://www.privat.katedral.se/~nv95mnar/aic/ It's actually quite nice, over 100 pictures, guitar and bass tabs, lyrics and soon-to-come 15 Mbs of soundclips. /martin. ------------------------------ Subject: Pigeonhed / Nuggets From: seth I discovered today that the vinyl and CD versions of Pigeonhed's The Full Sentence are different. The CD has 4 extra tracks that are not on the vinyl (Phunpurephun, 31st Of July, For Those Gone On, and Honor). For Boston-area list members, this discovery was made in Nuggets, a record/CD shop on Comm Ave (West of Mass Ave, right near Deli Haus), where both the CD and vinyl versions of the album are available for $10. They also have the Spoonman 7" picture disc for $2.50 (I picked up the TDITTL 7" pic disc (and SUB-POP-100)) and some of the various PN, BIMH, and BUTOW CD singles. seth ------------------------------ Subject: Re: Pigeonhed / Nuggets From: jsimpson@mail03.mitre.org (Jamesetta Simpson) > I discovered today that the vinyl and CD versions of Pigeonhed's The > Full Sentence are different.

Before the snow hit this weekend I manage to hit a few of the used CD shops. Pigeonhed "The Full Sentence" (CD) - $5 Truly "Fast Stories...From Kid Coma" - $5 (This CD has a licensed for promotional use only sticker on it) Soundgarden Book by Jon Ewing - $2 Alternative NRG Greenpeace - $2 (has Soundgarden's "New Damage") I just wish there were more good vinyl shops in my area. Jamie (Village Idiot/SOMMs Mom) ------------------------------ From: java4u@sos.net Subject: bootlegs Hello Everyone, I have a question I must ask, I know that this doesn't pertain to SG, but if anyone of you live in Seattle, you could help me with this. I am looking for any Nirvana Bootlegs. Anything at all. I am a big fan of Nirvana, and I would like to get my hands on anything that has to do with Nirvana. Does anyone know of any Record shops that have a good selection, or anything? Thanks. I could also use some SG bootlegs also. Thanks Rachel ------------------------------ From: Carolyn Hanel Subject: RE: painted blue across my eyes... Several days ago now, Lance asked us: >>Which brings up an interesting topic. Which would you prefer from = Soundgarden if you had a choice (which none of us do thank god) >>A- 10 more *premium-fan-fucking-tastic* Soundgarden albums, BUT "NO = MORE" tours period (save the occasional surprise appearance) >>OR >>B- Two or three more albums and lots of touring? >>Personally, I'd take A.

BUT.................. ........that was before I'd ever seen Soundgarden in concert. =20 oh boy - I'm STILL excited about it all, even though it's over - I guess = I should get arse into gear and start typing up that second review No amount of playing Soundgarden's music in your stereo will *ever* live = up to that feeling you get when you experience them live. When you can = *see* Kim looking directly at you. When you can *feel* the music coming = at you through the ground, through your ears, through your toes. When = you can *know* that you are witnessing one of the best live acts in the = world. NOTHING can beat that feeling, NOTHING. {all in my humble = opinion, of course!} Now that I know the incredible euphoria one gets when watching this band = do their thing, I would be happy to simply listen to the music they have = made up to now and remember those two wonderful concerts I saw. So, I = guess what I'm trying to say is that I would probably opt for B - = because then I'd have a chance to see them play again, and STILL have = some great Soundgarden albums to listen to each day! :-) Carolyn the Mildewed Fig Some things come and some things go - the Sandman twists your tales; The sun will rise and fall again, and the wind will fill your sails - = The Hanging Tree ------------------------------ From: CL Miller Subject: blah blah blah This is a multi-part message in MIME format. - --------------1DBF572967A7 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit hi there kiddies! just a note from your friendly sommster here in dreary pennsylvania. well, at least i have two things in common with Seattle-ites: cold, wet, dreary weather and a phenomenal love of SOUNDGARDEN... so anyway, i think i may finally be hot on the trail of a badmotorfinger/somms double disc. . .yummy also, there is a pretty noose ???double disc??? available for $10. is this a double disc or a single in two parts just like BIMH? hurry back shroomie. . .i miss reading your shit and falling out of my chair so anyway, caryn, how many sommsters does it take to screw in a lightbulb? 1 to hold the bulb 1 to hold the ladder 1 to turn off the main power 1 to hold the flashlight (it would be dark you know) 400 to dance around the ladder to "switch opens" and 1 to hammer the bulb in (i never said i was a COMEDIAN!) chris - --------------1DBF572967A7 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii; name="mail_ender.txt" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Content-Disposition: inline; filename="mail_ender.txt" "Christianity: It gives you everything to fear, and nothing to hope for." ~~ unknown check out our store's site! http://www.moviestop.com/ my personal video favorites of the week: welcome to the dollhouse trainspotting - --------------1DBF572967A7-- ------------------------------ Subject: SG in Rolling Stone From: seth This is a response from a guy who posted to alt.music.soundgarden that he has in stock every single issue of Rolling Stone since its inception in 1967, and that he can provide any Soundgarden article, advertisement, or review that has ever appeared in the magazine.
