I've been so busy since I got back and my server was down for 2 days, which hasn't helped anything! They even lost all the email I got while I was gone, so if anyone mailed me last week and hasn't already done so, please send it again. I don't even know what went on on the list here. But enough of that. I did go to the Gossamer Wings cd release party at the Crocodile in Seattle a week ago, and it was a great show. Ben did not play, but he was there. I only saw him very briefly and didn't get to talk to him, so I don't know if he's doing anything musically right now or not. He has buzzed off his hair again (grrr...) I did talk to Mike Johnson, who played in the usual mesmerizing manner and was in great voice, to Mark Lanegan, who was there to see the show, and to Pete Krebs and his current bassist Jim Talent and current drummer John Moen. It was funny, when Pete introduced the band he got Jim and John's names mixed up and then, after a few laughs and making amends he said, "they're all interchangeable with Ben Shepherd," and shot a grin to sidestage, where Ben was at the time. If you get a chance to see Gossamer Wings, you really should. Pete rocks out a lot more with a band than he does solo, and much more than the album, even though it's the same songs. He is planning a tour this summer beyond the NW, with a totally different band, not including Ben unfortunately. Don't know if this is by Ben's choice or Pete's, but it was always intended to be a revolving line-up. So, Ben may reappear at some future date for all we know. I did take pictures and plan to do a review of the show on my site soon, so watch for it within the next week or so, as soon as I get the time to get it all together. Has anyone purchased Americana- the Music of Johnny Cash? The release party for it is today at Cellophane Square on the Ave. in Seattle but supposedly it is already for sale. Rumor last fall was that Ben is on it, but I haven't been able to verify this. I plan to buy it anyway, but just wondered if anyone has it yet and knows if he is indeed on it.

I've also pulled out the temple of the dog cd again and had another listen, and could anyone tell me where i could get some Mother Love Bone Mp3's since i've never heard their music before. Thanks Greg ------------------------------ Date: Sat, 10 Apr 1999 19:05:56 EDT From: Rachel Potter Subject: 2 years i can't believe it's been two years. that's a long time. my life has changed so much in the past two years... but soundgarden is still constant. hopefully we'll have some new stuff from chris soon. -rachel ------------------------------ End of SOMMS Digest - 10 Apr 1999 to 11 Apr 1999 ************************************************
