Nadezhda




Name: Nadezhda is quite alright.....i think...

Email: Nahedgehog@aol.com

Age: I'm jailbait at the age of 17

Location: I live in the Rotten Apple known as NYC. I live in the largest Hosuing projects in the USA (world?). No silly, it's not the projects....I hate everyone who lives here, filled with rich lil catholic school girls. (catholic school girls rule! heheh) I have my own room, so it's all good, a nice pretty blue room... (with padding?)

What do you do?: I go to an alternative high school, no it doesn't mean we walk around with long hair and combat boots and flannels...it's a school for kids that can't learn under the standard curriculum. Instead of going to school during the week, I have an internship thru my school. I intern at the Prosept Park Wildlife Center. A zoo! Yay! And I just recently got a job at Tower Records. And I take care of lil children at a Sunday School, it's not a scary Sunday school, it's a Unitarian one, so everyone's a hippy.

How did you discover Soundgarden?: Geezum Crakers! I have a whole bunch of discovery stories about SG...I first heard them on the Singles Soundtrack, and thought that they were awsome, and thought Chris was an old man, who was also awsome. Then I remember first seeing them (besides Singles), well it was Kim.....on Almost Live, back when they had it on out in NYC. And one day my best buddy and I were watchin Headbangers Ball (R.I.P. *sob*) and SG was on, and we saw Kim, and were so excited that he was the dood from Almost Live's Lame List! The first time I can remember actually listening and loving and wanting to know more about SG was when I first saw the BHS video. Damn Skippy I admit it! That's a damn good song! Don't deny it! From then on, I loved them, but wasn't obsessed, well kinda....saw them live....and that started it.....went home and listened to every song, loved every song......now, my friends are seriously thinking of committing me.....

Favourite Album/songs: My fav album has to be Screaming Life/Fopp. It's so much fun! all the songs wanna make ya move, and Hiro's bass is just out there! Then I'm just tied w/ Badmotorfinger and Superunknown, cuz they just kick ass.....My fav songs are Searching With My Good Eye Closed, 4th of July, Slaves and Bulldozers, basically every song from Screamin Life, and Like Suicide....cuz they just love ta kick my ass....

Live Experiences: Um....I saw them live once, and that was a really bad experience, it was the turning point of me not liking mosh pits. It was at Lollapalooza, and they came on right after Wu-Tang, and me and my buddy Nefty tried to get real close, but we couldn't. And then our boys came ot and started to play, and then the biggest mosh pit began...I was in the middle of it, lil cute me. Some assholes tried to push me down, but I got back up and kicked their asses...I went back to where our stuff was and sat down and cried. one) cuz I was actually in the same place as SG, two) cuz I couldn't see them, and I wasn't having a good time. Nefty came back to get me, saw me crying and put me up on his back to see them, and then he moved me to his shoulders...I was so happy. I also had a chance to see them but, the show got cancelled, and I had backstage passes, but that was a traumatic turn of events that we shall leave for another time...

Other bands you like: I also like Porno for Pyros, Jane's Addiction (minus Dave Navarro), RHCP (minus Dave Navarro, plus John Fruciante), Beastie Boys, The Nerve (NYC underground band), Jesus Jones, Radiohead, Jimi Hendrix, Missy Elliot, Alice In Chains, Street Wlaking Cheetahs, Wool, Plastique (NYC undergroud band), Z , and I think that's it,....

Your Comments: I have a ferret named Ryo-ohki. She's named after one of my obsessions the cabbit (cat+rabbit) from the Tenchi-Muyo series, it's japanimation.....STATEMENT: I love Ryoko!
