It had several other albums listed for release on Oct. 27th (or is tuesday the 28th?) but no mention of CC's album for October or December. They (EW) seemed more interested in writing about Marilyn Manson, Jewel and Alanis.

One of Kim's fave people...Billy Corgin sang "Take me out to the Ballgame" at the Cubs game on Saturday. YIKES!!! Try to imagine someone whining through the "buy me some peanuts and cracker jacks" part and you have the picture. It was brutal! I bet if Kim would of seen it(and I know Kim still must be a Cub fan even if Randy Johnson is pitching for the dreaded Astros) he would of thrown a beer can at the screen!!! (empty of course...can't waste beer!) toni ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 21 Sep 1998 16:16:57 EDT From: Maria Joseph Subject: Five Horizons Hey all! It's kinda funny/weird to see our posts generate into Pearl Jam posts :) hehehe Anyhoot, you guys MUST take a look at the reviews over at www.fivehorizons.com! If you haven't seen PJ or won't catch their last two dates or even want to know more details about the show you saw, then you've gotta check it out! I was soo far away so I read it to figure out songs and to find out if anything special things were done by the guys. And every post mentions Matt's wonderful sounds! And for those who went, "Immortality" is the jam that Matt has been playing those kick-ass solos on!! I think they did it on all their shows. Also, the Matt Cameron Worship Hall has relocated it's bad-self (hehe) to Geocities b'cuz I really really can't sit on my ass for AOL! You can still see it on the AOL site, but I am currently working on uploading it to Geocities (it's not easy!). SO, if you've got some great reviews of Matt on the latest PJ tour then e-mail me at one of the two address: CameronJCP@aol.com OR cameron_hootcie@hotmail.com - Maria: u.2B.k.a.

The URL is at the bottom if you want to check it out yourself: _________________________________________________________________________ Pearl Jam, R.E.M., and Chris Cornell got the big brush-off from the White House in response to their letter asking to meet with Vice President Al Gore about environmental issues. The White House has responded saying that while Gore is very concerned about the issue and supportive of their cause, he would not be available until after the November elections. Gore's office offered up Katy McGinty, the White House's top environmental aid, to speak with the band members instead. They respectfully declined, and said they would wait until after the elections to speak with Gore directly, according to Trevor Fitzgibbon of the Washington Wilderness Coalition. The environmental issue at hand is our nation's disappearing forests and, specifically, industrial logging in the Pacific Northwest (allstar, Sept. 3). Meanwhile, the WWC has provided students with an "alert" to call Gore's office with. They're asking people to say, "Thank you for your leadership. I wish to join Pearl Jam and R.E.M. in calling for protection of America's disappearing wild lands. Please, save America's unprotected wilderness." The number to call is 202.456.2326.

Here I will "draw it out in crayon" (Star Pancake quote :)): ------------------------------------------------- Tutorial On the Smiley Face: ------------------------------------------------- Okay. See this?: --------------- :) (Figure 1) --------------- Ever wonder why the hell some people sometimes end their sentences with a colon and a parenthesis? It is a horizontally inverted smiley face, part of a wide variety of the Internet-spawned emoticons, which attempt to add personality or feeling to the faceless text you are reading right now. This particular emoticon stresses one of a few things: [A] Whenthe writer wants to make sure what they say isn't taken seriously. [B] When the writer is commenting on something he/she finds funny. [C] When the writer wants to convey a sense of laughter. [D] When the writer is yadda yadda, nevermind the rest. Let's concentrate on point [A], which is used in this following example, taken from a previous SOMMS post by me that has a certain person riled up over nothing: Example 1: ========== On Sun, 20 Sep 1998 19:38:34 PDT The Cat writes: >You can download them at: >http://members.xoom.com/The_Cat17/soundgarden/soundgarden_midi.zip >(121kb) > >Some of them are kinda chessy though....not my fault, I didn't make em :). ========== Now, ignoring the fact that I spelled 'cheesy' wrong, the smiley face [see figure 1] symbolizes the fact that I wasn't completely serious when I was commenting on the quality of the MIDIs. Not wanting to sound vulgar or commenting negatively is the sole reason of the inclusion of the smiley face [see figure 1], and thus the comment stated previously from the smiley face was to be taken lightly, not offensive. ------------------------------------------------- Okay, Draco, how's that for an overdone apology? >these are excellent quality MIDIs and i'm proud of tyhem and if you >have >anything negative to say to me about them i will end your/my life(j/k >kinda) Eh.....end your life? About your little hypocritical statement.....if you feel okay about calling your first MIDIs shitty, then how come it isn't okay for anyone else? Me no likes double standards, and if calling me a "piece of shit" for supposedly saying the same thing as you, I guess that makes you a piece of shit too. Anyway anyway, sorry. /\ /\ 'o' -The Cat Please excuse the stupid Juno message below....I didn't put it there :P Direct your flames to: the_cat17@hotmail.com _____________________________________________________________________ You don't need to buy Internet access to use free Internet e-mail.
