Hi folks. sending a little request here. Me and a few friends are putting together a magazine in France, a free mag intended to talk about things we love and support. So if any of you has a fav' band or knows a record he considers underrated or a hope for future, I'd be glad to know and maybe help them a bit Just thought people liking SG could have good CDs beside... Any music style , the only restriction would be that given that most of you are living in the US, the CD's you mention may not even be distributed here... So please mention label/company and reference if possible... Thank you in advance for all contributions (which I hope will be inspired) , and if you absolutely love a link - apart from Seth's..., go ahead, warn me! We are working now on #0, which will be a demo #, we need that to have ads and money (that's the price for a free mag). There will be metal ,trip hop/techno and rock sections... the latter one being under my responsibilities... And I will mention band s as God lives Underwater, Headswim, Spaceways, Robert Fripp, Incubus, Sneaker pimps, Tea party, I mother Earth... So even if these are not known by everyone, The y still have some background and support. Ok this will be only in France but if you love'em, mention'em... (Maybe this will be put also into a e-zine, and so translated in english, but you never know) PIF - I know this is not-so-much-SG-related, but I'm just glad and hopeful ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 20 May 1998 10:02:50 -0400 From: Kendrick Kay Subject: Austin 96 bootleg Does anyone have the "Austin 96" CD bootleg and is willing to sell it, or knows where to find it? If so, please e-mail me and we can work something out. Thanks!!!! :) ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 20 May 1998 12:23:44 -0400 From: jenny grover Subject: dumb question > ok i have a dumb question to some of you does anybody know why JCP was banned > from Mtv > > Thanks Joe It was my understanding that JCP was banned from MTV because they crucified a woman in it and some bonehead decided that could be construed as condoning violence against women.

TOTD! No way.......someone should make an audio recording of that!! Damn it, I wish I were Canadian! Also, I purchased a disc called Megasounds, which is a live performance from the '96 Lollapalooza tour in Molson Park, Canada. Can anybody give me any info on the disc( rarity, endorsed by the band, ect.....)? I found it in a little music store, and I ended up paying $30 for it. Was I ripped off? Thanx!

It's not worth much, especially not the grape color. 5, maybe 10 bucks, at the most. Same with the BUTOW single. I'd be willing to buy that vinyl off you for 15! What a deal, huh? >:) pUnKy ______________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free Email at http://www.hotmail.com ------------------------------ End of SOMMS Digest - 20 May 1998 to 21 May 1998 ************************************************
