Not that i'm gloating but they were absolutely incredible. They only played a couple of songs from albums previous to the last two including hands all over however when they were playing stuff off of Badmotorfinger and Superunknown they really kicked ass as Beavis and Butthead would say. I can't give an exact repertoire because I didn't exactly take a pen and paper but I'm sure you can imagine what they played if you just imagine all of the best ones 'cos they were on for an hour and a half. Their music sounded like it does on their pre-recorded and produced albums only they added bits to the songs and let the songs run into each other, as to the tuning they appeared not to change guitar more than two or three times throughout the concert and one of these times was because Chris had gone a bit mental (at the end of mind riot I think) and just hit his guitar strings untill about two or three of them had snapped. Oh and by the way if you ever get the chance to see them look out for the bass solo in the middle of Spoonman It really rocks. The main conclusion that I have come to is that if soundgardens next album isn't up to scratch (blasphemy) it will still be worth going to see them live because they are the most lively and extrordinary band I have ever seen live and I have seen a lot of bands live in my relatively short life. If you ever get a life threatening disease then make sure you see Soundgarden before you die. Hope this isn't too crap a review for everyone Dan ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 29 Aug 1995 11:49:47 +0000 From: Daniel Ladle To: jpop@mapmf.pmfst.hr, s325961@student.uq.edu.au Cc: somms@MIT.EDU Subject: Re: Soundgarden Guitar Tab -Reply Oh yeah, By the way why isn't anyone asking if Chris Cornell changes his tuning as well as Kim. It could be because you have seen the Motorvision video where he only plays guitar on a few songs. Well I have news for everyone further to my earlier Reading Festival rantings, Chris now seems to play guitar on all but one song in the latest set. He and Kim swap their guitars at different times through the set so I would guess that they have two guitars tuned differently on different songs which is a bit strange really. Gotta go again Dan ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 29 Aug 1995 08:48:22 -0400 (EDT) From: Kid Coma To: somms@MIT.EDU Subject: night surf Hey list! first, did SG play ANY new songs during reading? Anyone heard of anyone taping the show yet? get ahold of me if you hear of a tape or CD circulating...thanks. Night Surf: Night surf is a Ben Shepherd instrumental-only 4 track recording. It was played during the beginning of last years tour accompanied by Ben's brother, Henry's, opening film. The boys tried to get it released on one of SG's many euro singles last year. But there was something about it not being a SG song (it's just ben) The only place to get a copy is off one of the bootlegs. Take a look at my SG bootleg discography to see which one it's on. hope this helps steve ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 29 Aug 1995 15:22:32 -0400 From: ThisRulz@aol.com To: somms@MIT.EDU Subject: according to this person chris cornell mjackson was signing autographs at some music store and chris cornell walked in, but he was asked to leave because more people were paying attention to him than to mj. chris was pretty pissed and defaced (the person didn't know if that meant set fire to or pissed on) a fiberglass statue of mj. i don't know if this is true, but that's somebody said. i don't remember there screen name either. ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 29 Aug 95 13:49:24 PDT From: DKAASC@tevm2.nsc.com To: somms@MIT.EDU Subject: "Nightsurf" availability FROM: Kazam Ali SUBJECT: "Nightsurf" availability Hey Walter, I'm not sure if this is what you're looking for, but I got this bootleg from Soundgarden's concert last June and it opens up with an instrumental. The only thing is that the bootlegger called it "Schwinn Intro." I'm not sure if that's right or not, but this is the same person who called TDITTL, "One More Time Around" and "My Wave," "My Way!!"

HAHAHAHAH Hater was released in '93. I think they took alternative music back about 4 years and added a twist of blues. I love it. Pigeonhed sounds like a Fisk thing (it is)! Like NIN but not as vulgar or agressive.

There are three images from Soundgarden's performance at the Reading Festival available on the Web. They can be found at http://www.cerberus.co.uk/cdj/readingcarlsbergmm/mm/live3e.html 2. Melody Maker magazine has a small bit about Soundgarden on the Web. Look at http://www.cerberus.co.uk/cdj/readingcarlsbergmm/mm/soundgar.html 3. The August 26 issue of Melody Maker contains a full interview with Soundgarden as well as a bonus cassette ("Reading Present") that includes "Kickstand (live)" 4. As for the Chris Cornell/Michael Jackson thing, whatever happened was probably fueled by the following, which I'm reprinting from the August 19 issue of Melody Maker: -------------------- Soundgarden singer Chris Cornell has made an astonishing attack on Michael Jackson during a Maker Interview [note: this is the interview that appears in the August 26 isssue]. The Soundgarden singer laid into Jackson after seeing one of the infamous Jackson "HIStory" statues outside Tower Records on Sunset Strip. Cornell raged: "That f***king guy makes me wanna puke! Sending a statue of himself on tour! What the f*** is that all about? What a f***ing jerk. He's got way, way, way too much f***ing money. "You know how much his piece of shit record is selling for? Fifty f***ing bucks! "You know what I hope? I hope he's buggering Lisa Marie. That's what I f***ing hope. And I'll bet you he is f***ing buggering her too. Shit, that asshole. Elvis must be rolling in his grave. F***er!" -------------------- 5. I've added a television interview transcription (thanks to Justin for the contribution) to my Soundgarden site. It's accessible via the "Miscellany" page. That's all for now. seth ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 30 Aug 1995 12:35:18 +1000 (GMT+1000) From: LITTLE JOE To: MrSkis@aol.com Cc: somms@MIT.EDU Subject: Re: Soundgarden Digest, Saturday, 26 Aug 1995 On Tue, 29 Aug 1995 MrSkis@aol.com wrote: > Primus Rules!!!!!!@#$%^&*()_+ > Do we really need dickheads like this on the list?
