(happy, seth?) 1) apparently part of the sg vid shoot took place at the tattoo parlor on pike st. someone i work with was driving by early saturday morning and saw chris hanging out out front. i won't mention how close i live to this place or shroom will move in with me. ;) 2) re peter cornell, he is 'lighter' than chris in that he's got sandy brown hair and the sisters are blondish. as to the parents, i dunno, my friend linda has a way of finding out all sorts of weird info and she pointed them out to me at an inflatable soule last summer at the mural ampitheatre in seattle center. i don't think they were 'together' but they were both there. and linda's a 46 yr old adult, not prone to fabrication. oh well. 3) shroom and nothingman, cool .sig files. :) some people just don't have a sense of humor, huh? - --caryn - --everything seems to be up in the air at this point. --talking heads ------------------------------ From: ShRooMGrLz@aol.com Subject: Shroom's mostest favoritest SG thingies... > i won't mention how close i live to this >place or shroom will move in with me. ;) AUUUUGGGHHHH!!!!

Just a little. But notice please my excellent typing skills. Anyways... one of my mostest favoritest SG thingies at the moment is that new vinyl I got a month or so ago. Screaming Life on orange vinyl. Only the first 600 SL ep's were released on orange vinyl. I think I'm gonna be buried with it. Ummm... my all time favorite SG thingy is the shirt I had on when I touched (and tasted )Chris' sexy/sweaty body. It got a little bit of his sweat on it, and I never ever washed it. Oooh... Funland's on the radio... gotta go.

Nothingman already explained in detail that that Chris quote comes from 'Request' magazine, October 1994. (I should know to read all my messages before I post.) If you can backorder the issue, do so. Aside from the detailed interview content, the pictures are uncommon -- 2 full page pix of Chris, 1/3 of the table of contents is a goofy pix of Chris which is invaluable to would-be twisted fork makers, 1 small but great band photo, 1 pix of Chris and his lady love, and the best is a tiny, early live performance shot of a scrawny, teenage, psychedelic Chris.

I don't have any really rare Items.But I guess it would have to be motorvision since I am the only one I know who has it. in regards to the first apperance of the twisted fork it did appear briefly in motorvision during the interview section in the van. I also have a bmf era poster were the fork can be half seen. so I guess this is around the first it appeared.

(more) Musically, SG are a consistently inspirational live band. (Kudos especially to Matt.) Attitudinally, however, if Chris is having a bad show, he takes everyone to the doldrums with him. Same for Ben. BUT, the concentration and patience it must take to perform... At the Armory in New York in 1994, a boy made it onto the stage and lunged at Ben, who was next to Chris in front of Matt's kit. A security guard snagged the kids arm and rotated him, airborne, away from Ben. A second guard gripped the kids neck like a cat would hold her kitten and dragged the boy from the stage. Ben and Chris froze, looked at each other startled, then strolled to their respective usual stage positions. Extremely professional. Vikki :) Nothingman, please look up 'attitudinally' for me. ;) ------------------------------ From: Ross Filipek Subject: Re: Sound Zeppelin I love Led Zeppelin, but I really don't think they had even a fraction of Soundgarden's ability to handle odd time changes. "The Crunge" is a cool song in 5/4, but other than that, what Zeppelin songs make use of odd times? "The Ocean" comes to mind, but even that's not much of a challenge for anyone to follow. On the other hand, SG has got tracks like "Cold Bitch" and "She's a Politician" that required a dozen or so listens before I could follow the meter. They're both great bands, but (imho) SG is technically superior.

Cornell ------------------------------ From: ansel@morgan.com Subject: SG Museum Stuff & Contract Some of the more interesting SG memorabilia 'From the Collection of Susan Silver Management' that appear in the R-n-R Museum in Cleveland, Ohio, U.S.A., are the following: 1. Well-worn 1979 Gibson Les Paul used by Chris Cornell in the late '80s and the 'Louder Than Live' video (1989) 2. Traditionally framed photo of Chris Cornell at 5 years old (1969) This is, no contest, my own relatives included, the cutest picture of a little boy grinning from ear-to-ear I've ever seen. Makes me want to spawn a litter of my own, but that's more information than you wanted, isn't it. 3. Black Godzilla silhouette on white SG T-shirt (1988) Musta been somebody's favorite shirt. It's faded and well- worn, complete with holes. Godzilla began to disappear into the now greyish-white T-shirt. Seemed too small for a man to fit comfortably into. Maybe it was Susan's? 4. Handwritten (with spelling errors) on 4 pages of ripped out loose-leaf paper, is the original contract between Soundgarden and Sub-Pop Records (1987) I assume it's a draft of the contract because the page with the binding signatures was not included in the display. It took me an hour to hand write 75% of the contract on two R-n-R Museum programs, but I thought the content of the contract would be useful as a template for the would-be indie label owners/ musicians on the list. Artists need to be versed in the business side of the industry, so who better to get a lesson from than SG, Susan Silver Management and Sub-Pop Records. 3/4 of the contract is as follows: 1. This contract is made between Jonathan F. Poneman and Bruce Pavitt, acting as Sub-Pop Records (hereinafter referred to as "Sub-Pop") and Chris C., Matt, Hiro & Kim (hereinafter referred to as "Soundgarden") Sub-Pop hereby employs Soundgarden to render personal services for Sub-Pop, or in Sub-Pop's behalf, for the purpose of recording and/or making phonograph records. 2. Sub-Pop reserves the right, at their election, to suspend the operation of this contract if, by reason of sickness, injury, accident or refusal to work, fails to perform hereunder in accordance with the provisions hereof, or if due to any other cause not entirely within Sub-Pop's control or which we cannot by reasonable diligence have avoided, we are materially hampered in the recording, manufacturing, distribution or sale of records, or our normal business operations become commercially impractical. Such suspension shall be upon written notice to you and shall last for the duration of any such contingency. At Sub-Pop's election, a period of time equal to the duration of such suspension shall be added at the end of the then current period of the term hereof, and such period and the term hereof shall be accordingly extended. 3. Sub-Pop agrees to loan Soundgarden three thousand dollars for the production and manufacture of phonograph records (see #5). This money shall be redeemed at a royalty rate of %100 until the $3,000 loan is paid in full to Sub-Pop. From that point on, all profits derived from the sale of aforementioned Soundgarden record shall be split evenly between Soundgarden and Sub-Pop. 4. Sub-Pop reserves the right to use and to allow others to use Soundgarden's name and likeness, and biographical material concerning Soundgarden, for advertising and purpose of trade, and otherwise without restriction, in connection with services performed. 5. For the purposes of this contract the terms "records" or "phono records" shall include all forms of recordings manufactured or sold primarily for use as home entertainment, (tapes, CDs, etc.) 6. Sub-Pop shall authorize and supervise all art work and promotion with regards to aforementioned Soundgarden record. To this end, Sub-Pop shall provide $1,000.00 for promotion of aforementioned Soundgarden record. All money used for production, manufacturing, promotion and distribution will, hereafter, be referred to as advance. Advance money for maxi 12" will be itemized as follows: 1) recording $2,000 2) art design $500 3) shipping $250 4) promotion $1,500 5) manufacture $3,500 (for 2000 units) Items 1-4 are recoupable once, manufacturing costs will be recalculated and accounted for as they're accrued. Manufacturing costs will be deducted from the gross sales and will be adjusted according to fluctuations in manufacturing costs. Sub-Pop retains the sole right to determine how many pressings will occur. After manufacturing costs are deducted, Sup-Pop will pay Soundgarden 20% of the remaining net profits. This will be determined on a wholesale cost of $4 per unit. Unit cost may be adjusted according to manufacturing cost fluctuations. Sub-Pop will owe no money on cutouts or promos. 7. Sub-Pop reserves exclusive rights over the music featured on any Sub-Pop release, for three years from actual release date. 8. After that three year period, Soundgarden is free to use the songs in any other recording project, the actual masters, mixes and recordings of these songs and the use thereof shall remain exclusively Sub-Pop's for commercial purposes for 10 years from the actual release date. Sub-Pop retains the right to manufacture any record in its catalogue for an indefinite period of time. -Vikki :) Note: Even if you are starving on Cornflakes and water, never sell your publishing rights. Clean toilets. Wash windows. Anything. 'Cause if one of your songs hits like Whitney Houston's version of the Dolly Parton penned 'I Will Always Love You,' you will toss yourself off the tallest building in your city. If the kids need medical attention, however, sell only a percentage of the rights to a given song, so you will still retain some royalty rights. Also, make sure a clause is included in the contract that the record company is required to release and promote your record, say, three months after you provide them with the product. If you don't include this, it is their prerogative to never release your work, which they now own, so you can't pitch it to another record company.

Put them in an arena and let them fight till one gives or can't continue the fight. Now, you must be asking how does this tie into Soundgarden? Well, we just have to provide a sound track for all this Mega Violence... So, each character must have a Soundgarden tune that they fight to or plays upon entrance and winning a match... (You decide which). Hope this makes this thread relevent or just makes it go away... have fun kids. In (Fightin') Service, Saracen AKA Bryan - Soundgarden PS Frankenberry would kick all their asses! ------------------------------ From: foreshocks@bbs.cowland.com Subject: WHERE THE HELL DID EVERYONE GO?

Once I've watched it a couple more times, I'll comment more on it. My SG possessions are limited, but I treasure them all the same, expect for this video. Nobody lose it... but it's actually the first time that I've seen them perform live. More later.... Gail ********************************************************************** "I love it! I love it!

Let's hope it's not "Kyle Petty." here in australia the bside to both outshined and spoonman (first singles from their respective albums) was cold bitch, and as much as I like that song, I hope the trend doesn't continue. what would be cool, considering that it is probably going to be released before the album, is a demo version or two of songs that are going to be on dotu. normal versions of songs like rhinosaur or never the machine forever would be good, but wouldn't be so good once the album came out. yonks back there was an article that said they had 30 or 40 songs written for the album, so there must a lot of bside material floating around (songs like karaoke and kristie). my personal favourite would a soundgarden cover of the hater song down undershoe. ben should have saved that song for superunknown :) ----------------------------------- a thousand doors, a thousand lies rooms a thousand years wide ----------------------------------- ------------------------------ From: Christopher Pres Subject: Motorvision The first time I saw SG live was also on Motorvision and it was unbelieveable! To actually get to see Chris and the boys performing and having normal conversations was awesome! It was a little weird at first watching them perform but after watching it a thousand times it has become my favorite SG item also! Whatever!!!
