Age: 36 years old

Location:Ok...I live in Temecula CA. About 30 miles north of San Diego.

Occupation:Well, my occupation is Mother, Wife, Maid (only in my house) and collector of the best damn rock group that ever lived! SOUNDGARDEN!

How You Discovered Soundgarden:Well, it all started when a friend invited my boyfreind and I (now my husband) to see a band that everyone was talking about at the Whiskey a Go Go in 1889. That band happened to be SOUNDGARDEN (Can you guess which show it was?!)If you guessed, the taping of "Louder than Live" then your are right!(Well, actually the first taping, of two shows) And all I had to do was hear the first couple of songs and I was hooked! (I also thought that the *singer* wasen't too bad on the eyes either!!! ;-)

Favourite Album/SongsThat's a tough one...since I love ALL Soundgarden albums...but to pick one, I'd have to say Badmotorfinger. But with Louder Than Love coming in a close second. My favorite songs by the guys are: Blind Dogs, Room a Thousand Years Wide, Searching w/my Good Eye Closed, Slaves & Bulldozers, Loud Love, Burden In My Hand..just to name a few.

Live Experienceseen them Live in 89' at the first taping of LouderthanLive, Seen them at Lollapalooza 96', Also in San Diego @ the Fairgrounds 96' when 'You am I' and 'Reverend Horton Heat' opened for them, and again on the next two nights in L.A at the Universal Ampitheater (if any of you others where there...and saw a blonde chick holding up a neon green sign with the words "Fuck" and "Somms@mit.edu" on it, THAT WAS ME!!! Oh...and also in Seattle at the OK Hotel in 96' to see Hater play on Halloween night. (the legendary show where Ben jumped off the stage and beat the crap out of a heckler..that later turned out to be Daniel House of CZ Records! OOps!

Other bands i like:I am into: Jane's Addiction Tad Alice In Chains Nirvana David Bowie Led Zeppelin Bush Pearl Jam Kate Bush Tori Amos David Silvian (formerly of Japan) Bauhaus Peter Murphy (formerly of Bauhaus) Melvins Monster Magnet Truly COC Brother Kane Days of the New Korn Danzig Black Sabbath Ozzy Osborne Wellwater Conspiracy Fiona Apple

Any CommentsOver the years, I've injoyed reading all the posts on the list, also meeting some of you other SG fans and sharing that common interest. Like most of you....it's a sad thing that Soundgarden are 'no more'...but look what they have left us, their fans... SO much great music to continue to love/enjoy for years to come. No more new SG I know....but we have solo ventures to look forward to. Remember...everyone must choose a path and move on to new and exciting things and I think that is what the guys have chosen to do at this time in their careers....so lets stick by them and count our blessings for what we do have and all they have given us....
