Somebody told me that his brother and sister were in a band called Peace, Love, and Guitars, or something like that. A few years ago in Seattle, I saw Peace, Love, and Guitars---or whatever they were called---open up for pursuit of happiness. They were okay, but nothing like SG music-wise or talent-wise. Noone in the band looked like Chris, except for one guy who looked like what you would get if Chris and Kim mated. Does anybody know if in fact anyone in this band is related to Chris?

You'll probably kill me Seth, but I was thinking about some other mailing lists I've been on with their supporting web pages and what made them special. What I suggest is that you keep a log of all concerts with Soundgarden (whether it be Lollapoluza, SG top bill or SG supporting), including reviews from people that were there and the set list that was played. This would not have to be limited to concerts coming up - people could dig up memories of concerts they have been to over the years and write about them too. From there, tallies could be kept on each song to see how often each song of Soundgarden gets played... The downside is obviously that it requires a lot of work and server space...but I find the reviews pretty interesting as well as I'd like to see how often each Soundgarden song pops up in concert. In addition to this, a database of magazine articles could also be kept, where people type in any little Soundgarden tidbit, include the magazine, date etc, and we can look them up straight from SOMMS...

'Eye', 'Coverin`' & 'MoV' have tracks that are studio recordings with dubbed crowd noise. 'OP''s a rehash of other boots... including the Louder than Live and Motorvision vids. (Well, 'Fortissimo'/'LtLive' & 'Digging the Garden' in boot terms.) For extensive boot information check Seth's web site (plug) which conects directly to Steven Russell's Soundgarden bootlist discog (double plug)... very helpful boot info. <>? I'd have to say that $30's a little steep (but not too bad) for just about any boot as it is... I rarely pay more than $25 for singles & $40 for doubles... then again I get good deals for being a regular purchaser at the local shops around me. I recall that Bill from Bill's Records & Tapes charged $40 (single)/$60(double) for boots to non-regulars, but he had just about everything under the sun by many artists... YES!

I don't know if anyone on the list remembers this, but there was a section on the original version of the SG page in early 1994 for concert reviews and "Soundgarden experiences" that fans sent me. There were only about 6 contributions, and I eventually eliminated them when the page was revised. I would be more than happy to have such a section again, though I'd like to make it available to everyone, not just list members. I think it would be easier (for me, anyway) if I worked out a way to automate this. Perhaps a form for people to write about the shows that outputs an HTML file directly so I don't have to deal with 300 set lists and reviews individually. Perhaps this can be a list project at first, if everyone would be willing to help out, and then it can go public so other people could fill in the blanks. I'll send mail to the list when I've set everything up... > The downside is obviously that it requires a lot of work and server > space...but I find the reviews pretty interesting as well as I'd like to see > how often each Soundgarden song pops up in concert. Server space is no problem. Stargate graciously provides as much as I need (and I'm already up at more than 150MB, I think). If I can automate most of it, it won't be all that much work, and even if it is, I don't mind. Soon it will be summer, and without school to worry about, I'll need something to keep me busy. Stay tuned for the next major addition to the SG page. It's coming soon... :) seth ------------------------------ End of somms Digest [Volume 2 Issue 88] ***************************************
