I knew about the Manson murders but I had no idea that a >Beatles song could have influenced it. Consider it a good thing that you could not phantom why that song would lead someone to murder. Have you ever seen a Charlie Manson interview??? The guy is way way way out there! And if you start understanding how that brain works...I'd be worried! Chris just likes the Beatles and there are some great songs that have held up well over the years. I always thought Soundgarden would of done a good job on Back in the USSR and "Within you without you". Kim could of had fun with weird guitar tunings to replace the sitar. Just dreaming.

Since I am a comic artist i think my ideas could be influential here... Since the X-men was just done i will go with more of a "Marvel Comics Finest" kind of team... Matt Cameron would be Peter Parker a.k.a. Spider-Man. Matt just has those "Peter Parker boy next door" looks and is all sinewy and spindly with those muscular drummer arms which he could stick well to walls with... Ben Shepherd would have to be Frank Castle a.k.a. the Punisher. Ben does have the dark, brooding traits of any popular comic book anti-hero. He's been known to lash out at disgruntled fans and fight back when "attacked" on stage. And i have definitely seen him go "postal" with his guitar in concert...a master of dangerous, proficient, (and musical) weaponry... Kim Thayil would make the perfect Logan a.k.a. Wolverine. Both are very hairy, of foreign descent (Indian in Kim and Canadian in Wolvie), and both consume mass quantities of beer...(and Kim better have a rapid healing factor after all those brews and cigarettes) Chris Cornell is abit tougher to pin down but i would have to go with Tony Stark a.k.a. Iron Man for two reasons... One, with his short cropped hair from his Superunkown days and the trimmed little mustache he just looks like the guy and both have those dashing "Errol Flynn leading man" looks. And reason two, (this being more subjective) the song "Iron Man" by the group, Black Sabbath, who in turn was a heavy influence for Soundgarden, would be a good theme song for Chris to sing as he flies around wooping ass on supercriminals everywhere in his hi tech suit of armor. Just imagine Chris belting out Ozzie's Lyrics a'la 'Into the Void' as he blasts the Crimson Dynamo or Mandarin with his power gauntlets... ZWAP!!!... (oh yeah and Tony Stark went though a period of life as an alcoholic and I'm sure Chris has done his share of Jack and Beam binge drinking...) Excelsior! Flame on! and 'nuff said... Joe Corroney (hopefully this makes at least Charlie and Grace chuckle..) ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 22 Jul 1999 00:18:41 +0200 From: Rizzitelli Marco Subject: R: Re: helter skelter : >When did the Come Together cover appear?
