1062.1 | Don't know about Seattle, but... | ASDG::FAY | | Mon Feb 27 1995 13:16 | 2 |
| P.J. just began their world tour, rumor is they will be in the U.S.
sometime during the spring/summer...
|
1062.2 | :*) | CSLALL::PLEVINE | | Mon Feb 27 1995 13:46 | 5 |
| Well, Eddie Vedder has become a parody of himself, Alice in chains have
become MTV darlings, STP have also become parodies, Soundgarden are
todays Led Zepelin, and i've never heard of Satchel.
Hope this helps.

| Thanks for the sanity check, Peter. Seattle's "grunge" scene is a
joke!
But, all fads come and go...hope this one's gone, soon.

I think STP are more of MTV's darlings than Alice in Chains...but thats
my opinion.As for saying "band x is the new Led Zepplin or another big
old band",that kinda bugs me.I think there will never be another Led
Zepplin(thank goodness ;^)but there will be imitators or their style ie
Kingdom Come and we all know where they went!
btw..has anyone noticed a lot of the Seattle scene people like to play
the "tortured artiste"...Eddie reads poetry live on air and moans about
"how can art be judged?" when Jeremy won best video a few years
back.What's his face from "STP" who sings,always looks like he's the
male equivelent of Juliette Lewis ie the lights are on but no-one's
home!A tad flakey even..!?!If anyone had the heard the interview with
Chris Cornell on the radio a few weeks back then that would speak for
itself!A phrase he used was "delving deep within his inner being" when
talking about lyrics.
Give me the good old days when Rocks stars tossed tvs out of
windows,got drunk and beat the crap out of photographers! 8)

1062.5 | cool | NEWOA::SHERRATT_S | | Tue Feb 28 1995 04:00 | 8 |
| Thanx for the wod of info,i think!,oh,Satchel are Shawn Smith,Regan
Hager,John Hoag and someone else who's name currently escapes me,they
formed from BRAD (Stone Gossard's side project) and their lp's called
EDC and is brilliant.
So Alice in Chains arn't splitting up then???
Does anyone know when Pearl jam are touring the U.K?
Thanx.

| RE: NOTE 1062.5
I think Pearl Jam, Alice in Chains (no they aren't splitting up),
Soundgarden and Stone Temple Pilots are excellent, Lenny Kravitz
is pretty cool too!
Just thought I'd add my little statement in there!
I'd like to know when Pearl Jam will be touring the U.K aswell?
Can anyone help? Please?

1062.15 | | RTOEU::MBANTLEON | KING FOR A DAY ... FOOL FOR A LIFETIME | Fri Mar 03 1995 05:15 | 18 |
| well i saw the stone templee pilots live 10-nov-94 on there european
tour ... uuuhhh... i was not worth the money ! ..damn these dudes
were so arrogant on the stage ... like "i must play the gig but we dont
want to- and all these stupid kids in front of the stage"
there was no vibe between the crowd and the band ....
later in the show people started throwing stuff at them ..
"stop it or we'll stop" ... they should ask themselves why the people
throw stuff at them ...besides throwing stuff at the band is an honor
on the monsters of rock festival !
they only played 1:30 hours ...
i never listened to my stp "purple" album ...
i really liked the music a lot but this show was so "sad"...
and it was not the only bad show, i konw from friends in hamburg that
this show was even worse....

1062.16 | STP | ASDG::FAY | | Fri Mar 03 1995 08:19 | 9 |
| STP...I saw them last year at the Centrum in Worcester Ma. It was an
excellent show. One of the best I had seen in a while. The band played
real tight and they played just about everything they've recorded. I
would say it was one of the best concerts I saw last year. Of course
they were video taping the whole thing, so maybe they were on good
behavior :)

1062.17 | bootlegs | NEWOA::SHERRATT_S | | Fri Mar 03 1995 08:48 | 3 |
| I bought an STP bootleg video of 3 shows and they are all excellent,I
was very impressed also with the quality of the video,so if you see a
bootleg vid I suggest buying it!!
|
1062.18 | bootleg?? | CHEFS::FOUNTAINES | | Fri Mar 03 1995 10:00 | 8 |
| re:1062.17
Not to sound uncool, but you guys keep talking about "bootleg" what
does this mean??
Also, has anyone got info on Pearl Jam yet??
S?
|
1062.19 | | GOOEY::JUDY | That's Ms. Bitch to you! | Fri Mar 03 1995 11:13 | 5 |
|
"bootleg" is an unauthorized (by the band or their mgmt)
video or audio copy of performances. Like if someone were
to take a tape recorder into a concert.....
|
1062.20 | bootleg | NEWOA::SHERRATT_S | | Mon Mar 06 1995 04:37 | 6 |
| and they are mostly quite good in the sound department,but every now
and then someone may start talking i've got a pearl jam bootleg and a
lady starts talking in the middle of light my fire it's so annoying.
You can usually find bootleg in little out of the way music stalls and
are well worth the price,which is uaually 13-25quid.

1062.21 | No P.J. England concert info. | ASDG::FAY | | Mon Mar 06 1995 07:53 | 4 |
| I checked my P.J. fan club newsletter and there is no info. about any
European concerts. It just lists stuff in the far east (Singapore,
Japan,Australia, N.Z. ect...). After which is the U.S. part of the tour
in the spring/summer...
|
1062.22 | pj fan club ahoy! | NEWOA::SHERRATT_S | | Mon Mar 06 1995 10:01 | 4 |
| reply,I dont suppose you could give me some info on how to join the
pearl jam fan club could you (from England)
Thanx.
Simon.
|
1062.23 | Ten club info... | ASDG::FAY | | Mon Mar 06 1995 12:44 | 15 |
| I found the address inside the album cover (tape,cd whatever...). So
far it's been in Ten, Vs. and Vitalogy, I haven't looked in any others.
I have the address at home, but it's a P.O. box in Seattle Wa. USA.
You write them, then they will write you and ask for $5.00 (US) after
which you will be on the mailing list for 1 year. After 1 yr. send
another $5.00 (US) ect...You can save yourself a stamp by sending
the $5.00 (US) the first time. Be sure to include your name address and
telephone number (maybe they'll call..) it will take a while to get a
response, they are very busy but they do send a very informative
booklet. Maybe the album covers in England will have a closer address.
Let us know what you find, I will post the address tomorrow...

All I have to do is turn on the radio and hear everything I ever
wanted to know about Pearl Jam.
Heck, I could tune in to FM 94.4 and hear everything I ever wanted
to know about Pearl Jam.
[And if I lost you on that one I can explain it. 8^)]
|
1062.31 | let me know!!?!?!? | CHEFS::FOUNTAINES | | Wed Mar 08 1995 01:40 | 11 |

Pearl Jam are hardly ever on the radio over here, unless anyone knows
of a radio station that I've been missing out on!!!
I taped Pearl Jam Unplugged last year sometime, but my sister taped
over it with some of her "rave" rubbish@!!!
Not Happy

1062.32 | unplugged | NEWOA::SHERRATT_S | | Wed Mar 08 1995 02:10 | 9 |
| Pearl jam's unplugged is on mtv next week I cant remember which day
though (about Tuesday/Wednesday I think),im going to have tp get the
jeremy single just for footsteps,even if it is 8quid,that just so
expensive for 3 songs dont you think?,mindyou the 'go' single was
10quid,and thats what I paid for the whole 'VS' album (got it in a
sale!!).
p.s you'll have to excuse me writting quid all the time as every time I
try and get a pound sign I get a little # instead!!!!

| Kerrang is notorious for *being* shite.
I know that sometimes they get stuff right, but they're well known for coming
up with unfounded rumours, and printing them. I wish every band that had
untruths printed about them went round there and trashed the offices, like the
Wildhearts did.
