If there'll be a "totd back together," I really don't think they should CALL themselves TOTD. In response to the Rachel's original post, I'd hazard the guess that Kim's band is Dark Load ("Brewicide"), though I haven't heard the comp they're on. I'm positive it ain't Pigeonhed (ugh). I can't even give The Full Sentence away for FREE! Later, Scott Every word I said Is what I mean. ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 8 Jul 1997 10:38:35 -0400 From: "Carol C."

Kinser" Subject: Re: My Soundgarden Sandwich I guess I'll contribute to this little thread. The Hard Corp.---Hater---Heavy Metal Hits of the 80's Vol.1 Sonic Youth (Goo)---Soundgarden---The Soup Dragons (I'm Free single) Tankard---Temple of the Dog---Tesla (Mechanical Resonance) As a note, I can't believe people don't keep their CD's alphabetized and/or in an orderly fashion. Maybe I'm just overly anal about it or it's just when you have over 500 CD's in your collection, alphabetizing is the only way to find them!

I already have the tapes, but it's cool to listen on the computer. thanx. ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 8 Jul 1997 11:43:41 -0400 From: Pam Underwood Subject: Re: Hello, We are Soundgarden In a message dated 97-07-06 22:56:42 EDT, you write: << I bought a video recently called Hello, We are Soundgarden *cheerin and waving at Kirk!* and it has some mad stuff on it. I was wondering if anyone else has this video. The videos have a blurb at the beginning - Title,when where how, produced by blah blah directed by blah blah etc. Interesting stuff... >> I bought that video about a year ago and still watch it all the time. It's got some great stuff on it. Where did you get your tape from? ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 8 Jul 1997 13:57:58 -0400 From: Kelly Hendricks Subject: Anyone know??? Hey you guys and gals!!! I was wondering about something. I ordered a shirt from the Knights of the Soundtable (slow-ass people) before SG broke up. Now I've e-mailed them hundreds of times and no response has ever come back. Are they still running or what is the deal?? Does anyone know??? Well, let me know if you guys/gals have any info.!! Take care and be sweet!!! Stay Cool, Kelly (C: P.S. You know your obsessed with SG when you play the video and the song to that video at the same time trying to get it to match so you can have what sorta seems like surround sound. It sounds quite weird, kinda like Chris is throwing his voice across your room. Okay, so maybe I had WAY too much time on my hands!!!! ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 8 Jul 1997 14:37:52 -0400 From: Rachel Potter Subject: launch cd with chris and kim Does anyone else have the launch cd with chris and kim interviewed on it? I think it's really cool... everyone should get it theres some at my blockbuster music so maybe you other people can find it some where.

I would be willing to pay cash, or trade with videos or boots from my "good sized" sg collection. or evan sell you my mothers soul. this show means alot to me, because it was the only show i got to see sg at, ever. If you have a video thats unlabeled, and you think it might be the west palm show, there is pictures of chris from that show on the unofficial site. under images,chris. thanks for your help...... mike. ---------------------------------------------- "only bending when you break" --------------------------------------------- ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 8 Jul 1997 18:23:00 -0400 From: Audrey Hillyard Subject: Re: launch cd with chris and kim << Does anyone else have the launch cd with chris and kim interviewed on it? I think it's really cool... everyone should get it theres some at my blockbuster music so maybe you other people can find it some where. >> The interview with Chris and Kim is very worthwhile, if just for the format. There's not a whole lot of substance on this cd, imho. Perhaps later issues of this zine have a little more to them? If you want the Soundgarden issue (8), you can order it from the Launch web page: www.2launch.com. ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 8 Jul 1997 16:25:11 PDT From: Matt Busse Subject: Re: your mail >> I don't know about anyone else, but all I saw on 120 minutes last night >> was a history thing about Temple of the Dog and part of the video. > >"A history thing" ??? Do you mean archival interview footage with Eddie >and Chris? Or maybe a 30 second 'this day in history' flashback. ??? >What did you see on 120 Minutes last night? Why were they showing a clip >of 'Hunger Strike'? -Vikki ??? > > Okay, this is what happened. a screen cam eup andThen they started a video clip of Hunger Strike and they had scrolling words accross the bottom that said this week in 1991 the Temple of the Dog album was realeased or something like that. Oh, and last night, on M2 ( it was actually the M2 show on Mtv) had the whole Hunger Strike video. On Muchmusic on "The Wedge", they had the crummy version of Outshined. _______________________________________________________ Get Private Web-Based Email Free http://www.hotmail.com ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 8 Jul 1997 21:06:43 -0400 From: Antonia Navarro Subject: Kim I was talking to my bass teacher yesterday about bands, and I found out that he likes Soundgarden a lot. I never knew that he even knew who SG was, but he told me how he loves BMF and everything. He also told me that his sister used to go out with Kim!!! I couldn't believe it. That's how he started listening ot SG in the first place. I have to call him and ask him more about his sister and Kim. It's a small world!! -antonia ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 8 Jul 1997 21:34:34 -0400 From: Giuliana Garbini Subject: Re: Hello, We are Soundgarden In a message dated 97-07-08 19:22:54 EDT, Krakhead13@AOL.COM (Pam Underwood) writes: << I bought a video recently called Hello, We are Soundgarden *cheerin and waving at Kirk!* >> Kirk who?

Well I got my copy yesterday, and all it is is him sitting in a cafe with with Tori Amos as a waitress and Gwen Stefani sitting in another booth.... they put chris' image in a isolated booth and when you click on him he says how he is somewhat of a recluse....so nothin special... although Tori admits to being a pyro and Gwen likes to play with barbie dolls.... hmmm... mix those together and you get the barbeque in bhs.... :) Laura ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 8 Jul 1997 21:50:10 -0700 From: Rachel Thompson Subject: Re: NEWS! >I also heard that in the Alternative Press magazine with Veruca Salt on the >front cover that Chris's solo album is near completion! I decided to check this article out for myself. And it was just a little paragraph about how SG disbanded. Now about Chris's solo project. It just mentioned how word has it that Chris's solo album is near completion. Nothing more than what we've already heard.
