It brings up 2 books - one of them is New Metal Crown. The other is something I have never heard of... It is called Soundgarden: Illustrated Story. By E. True. Oh well, just thought you all might be interested in this.

"paid way to much for zepplin tickets, but got pretty good seats" ------------------------------ Date: Sun, 19 Apr 1998 13:57:36 EDT From: Gallagwar Subject: Re: News Update I too am with the people who are pissed off. I live in South Jersey and the only places Pearl Jam are playing in the Tri-State area are MSG, the Meadowlands and the CoreStates Center and there is no way in hell I could have gotten tickets to a show in any of those venues. I'm pissed off because when I went to by my damn tickets, they were sold out for all three venues...and that was only four hours after they went on sale.

Apparently someone knocked some sense into those MTV morons and they decided to rank DOTU at #3. Woohoo!! While I think it merited at least a number 2 ranking (Waiting to Exhale Soundtrack at #2), I don't know about number one(Beck, Odelay)... Just something cool to liven up your day, Ben P.S. By the way, many thanks and kudos to Bill for his work on the rarities FTP site. ------------------------------ End of SOMMS Digest - 19 Apr 1998 to 20 Apr 1998 ************************************************
