So, I decided to give it a >shot. Try these lyrics, the song "swallow my pride" is a cover of a Green River song (i think they did it first) and this is from the cd liner notes of the album Come on Down **this is from the original, some lyrics are slightly different** She looked at me with dignity "there's one thing you gotta see, even though were headed for war, this nations prouder than ever before, yes there's a spirit in the air, we're more american than anywhere" well I just smiled cause I could tell this little girl's going to hell now I wouldn't mind if you swallow my pride make me feel alright deep inside, feel alright all the warmth in her heart can't keep my blood from running cold first I fell for her looks now I wanna go for the throat I tried to tell her a hundred times this little girl didn't understand at all pride comes before a fall Hope that this helps you.

Digging the Garden is a two part bootleg. The first part is the exact concert of the Motorvision video. Which was in Seattle on 3/5,6/92. The second part of the bootleg is a show in some disco in Germany...sometime in 92. ------------------------------ Date: Sun, 20 Aug 1995 12:37:44 -0230 (NDT) From: Tony Dawe To: John Darron Cc: LITTLE JOE , ClownWithBazooka , Kelly M Allen , somms@MIT.EDU Subject: Re: your mail On Wed, 16 Aug 1995, John Darron wrote: > I'm gay and drunk, does it matter???? > kinda /\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\ \/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/ /\Tony Dawe /\ \/gbf2033@infonet.st-johns.nf.ca \/ /\St.Johns InfoNET /\ \/"I am you, you are me, \/ /\ no one is themselves" /\ \/"I am the law" \/ /\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\ \/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/ ------------------------------ Date: Sun, 20 Aug 1995 12:59:57 -0230 (NDT) From: Tony Dawe To: Jimi Hendrix Cc: blind dog , The Garden Subject: Re: b-sides On Thu, 17 Aug 1995, Jimi Hendrix wrote: > Can some one send me a list of b-sides for Soundgarden. what is a b-side? > > > ------------------------------------------------------------ > > Christian Blunden e9328847@student.uq.edu.au > > http://student.uq.edu.au/~e9328847 > > "All thats sacred comes from youth!" - Not for You. > > ------------------------------------------------------------ > > oooo > 888 > oo.ooooo. .ooooo. .oooo. oooo d8b 888 > 888' `88b d88' `88b `P )88b `888""8P 888 > 888 888 888ooo888 .oP"888 888 888 > 888 888 888 .o d8( 888 888 888 > 888bod8P' `Y8bod8P' `Y888""8o d888b o888o > 888 > o888o > o8o > `"' > oooo .oooo. ooo. .oo. .oo. > 888 `P )88b `888P"Y88bP"Y88b > 888 .oP"888 888 888 888 > 888 d8( 888 888 888 888 > 888 `Y888""8o o888o o888o o888o > 888 > .o. 88P > `Y888P > > ------------------------------------------------------------ > > /\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\ \/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/ /\Tony Dawe /\ \/gbf2033@infonet.st-johns.nf.ca \/ /\St.Johns InfoNET /\ \/"I am you, you are me, \/ /\ no one is themselves" /\ \/"I am the law" \/ /\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\ \/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/ ------------------------------ Date: Sun, 20 Aug 1995 12:08:49 -0400 From: ThisRulz@aol.com To: somms@MIT.EDU Subject: i'm subjectless at the moment was anyone at the motorvision concert? ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 21 Aug 1995 10:33:43 +1000 (GMT+1000) From: blind dog To: seth Cc: somms@MIT.EDU Subject: Re: Soundgarden Digest, Friday, 18 Aug 1995 On Fri, 18 Aug 1995, seth wrote: > you found me out. i am a lieutenant in the soundgarden spy corps and > have started this mailing list and written the web page in order to > acquire information that may be used to better our cause, > superunearth, in which we gain control of the planet and force our > will upon its inhabitants. my superiors are, naturally, not human, > opting to pose as a rock band from seattle so as to seem credible. sign me up! ----------------------------------- a thousand doors, a thousand lies rooms a thousand years wide ----------------------------------- ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 21 Aug 1995 10:41:23 +1000 To: LEM89@aol.com From: Carolyn Subject: Re: silverchair Cc: somms@MIT.EDU At 02:58 PM 18/08/95 -0400, Laura wrote: >Silverchair are getting a lot of radio airplay here in seattle.

I like >it for a few songs, not all of them. >Laura >major soundgarden fan Hi Laura I see you also sent a similar note to the Soundgarden mailing list (so I'm sending a copy of this there too), and got a reply from 'DEFsonic' - another Australian hello DEFsonic!!). He obviously doesn't think much of Silverchair. I guess not everyone likes the same music. I really loved Silverchair's first single "Tomorrow", and like you have their Frogstomp CD. They released "Tomorrow" as an EP which had 3 other songs on it (none of the 3 are on Frogstomp) - one being called "Blind" which I really like. Anyway, I haven't been to any of their concerts over here. I live 450 km from both Adelaide and Melbourne - two capital cities in Australia - and since most big concerts are held only in capital cities, I unfortunately don't get to many. However, I know a couple of guys who went to an outdoor Silverchair concert at Torquay (a good surfing area in southern Australia) and they absolutely loved it. It was at Easter time, and the atmosphere was great, etc. etc. (no, DEFsonic, I don't know how many 14-15 year old girls there were in the crowd!!). Laura, let me know what the concert on 15 September is like...........

I'm interested in widening my fairly small collection. off the top of my head, I have: crown of thorns lollapalooza 1992 this is boston not seattle live in germany or somewhere 1994 and some other stuff. so if anyone is interested, mail me direct. also, I wouldn't mind getting everyone's opinion of bootlegs. do you agree or disagree with their sale? if you have any thoughts, post it to the group. blind dog ----------------------------------- a thousand doors, a thousand lies rooms a thousand years wide ----------------------------------- ------------------------------ Date: Sun, 20 Aug 1995 23:45:01 -0500 (CDT) From: John Darron Subject: boots fair?

What a pity more aren't released by the bands themselves with good sound quality. Are there any legitimate live Soundgarden albums, for example??

This time to ask about Offspring. {Does it matter that I don't ONLY write about Soundgarden on the soundgarden mailing list?? I hope not.} [at least I'm not sending crappy chain letters - I've received seven so far - - or unsubscribing on this mailing list.....] Another band I really like is Offspring, and I just wanted to know if any of you can tell me a bit more about them. I couldn't find any info on them on the Internet. I have two of their albums - Ignition and Smash - and love them. Do they have any other albums? And is Offspring very popular with Soundgarden fans?? See ya.
