~*SILVERCHAIR NEWS*~
Well this time I'm kinda low on silverchair news. silverchair is now back home in
Australia for a little while. But they still will be doing the summer fests in Europe
in a few weeks. Also this is just a strange little coincidence but in the Thank Yous
in Veruca Salt's latest release "8 Arms To Holed You" They thank The Gillies Family.
Now I know that Gillies is a very common Australian name, but Veruca Salt also have
a song on that CD called "Benjamin" Now it probably has NOTHING to do with Ben Gillies.
But it is a strange coincidence to think about. I'd love to hear your insight on this topic.

Hey there,
One of the topics Heidi brought up for us to talk
about, was
silverchair's performance on TV..iv seen them on SNL,
Lettermen and Conan
(also live and direct on MTV, but im not counting that one:) i'd have to
say, thir best one was...Conan cuz they seemed pretty
lively, maybe a bit
tired, but daniel didn't seem to show it when he was
jumping around a bit
they all seemed to be more relaxed. hell, Ben was
so relaxed he played
NAKED (thought that would get your attention! ;P calm down, it was from the
waist up :) I thought when they were on Lettermen, that they were good, but they seemed a wee bit camra shy. Daniel didn't seem to
look into the camra
too much (did he even look once? i can't remember) and
Ben liked the moniter..they didn't seem to happy about
performing..until they shook hands
with Lettermen.....they were really good on all shows,
but i just think
Conan was the best one cuz the band seemed more
lively..and also it could be
becuz they played FREAK, which i just happen to love! ;)
I think it's kick
ass to see them on SNL again..on Leno..on Rosie..on ANY
show! :) what'd you
guys think about them on lettermen, conan, sNL? welp, im
gonna make like a
baby and head out, see ya! Keeon on rockin

Subject: ska song for this reject =)*
hello everyone on this list!
first, i would love to know if anyone knows where they are still giving
out copies of out-takes and mis-takes! because i just sent someone $15 to
buy me another freakshow cd so i could get a tape, but they're not giving
them out by her anymore! so, if anyone could kindly let me know if they
could get one, it'd be greatly appreciated =)*
second, if anyone wants to trade bootlegs, mail me =)* i have heaps of
silverchair and KoRn stuff... and i also want more! ;)
kay, maybe i should just be asking heidi about this... but i was
wondering, is this kinda like a graduated FML? i mean, i think a mailing
list that comes out every once a week (or as often as heidi likes) is
just fine, so is that kinda what we're making this? i was just curious,
since i think the FML is just about non-existent! ;) just don't post
about daniel's hair being "yucky" and i'll be a happy camper =)* haha,
bernice! *camper* =)* sorry, i'll shut up now ;)
take care,
christy

The song Nobody Came is one I really relate to. It's depressing to listen
to, and it sounds hopeless..... an emotion that I have felt a lot
before...... anyways, it's a kick ass song, and I just wished they had
played it live at the gig I was at.
silverchair and other trades? I don't know about trading (I like all my
CDs), but I wouldn't mind getting some items ($$$) so tell me if you've got
anything you wanna get rid of.
I started liking silverchair back in late May '95 and I could have sworn
they were atleast 21 or so, until I bought Frogstomp and the guy working at
the store told me they were 15 & 16. I was just like, "Yeah right..... they
can't be!" I thought their entire album kicked ass (and I still do) and I
just thought, "whoa, I gotta do this!"
Most of the sc performances on TV have sucked, especially on Dave
Letterman, 'cuz the bass and the vox were way to quiet. I haven't seen any
MTV appearances 'cuz, well, I'm from Canada.
Meeting sc..... I'd love to 'cuz I'm sure they'd be really cool, and I have
lots of friends that have met some or all of sc and told me they were
super-nice. Oh yeah, and if anyone knows how to get backstage at one of
their gigs, tell me please!!!!

Hey everyone,
I'm happy that this time we got some good posts this time! Un like last time when our posts were just about non-exiscent.
In response to Christy this is kinda like, just a place for people who like
silverchair, but don't want to deal with the LONNG, dull, FML's or who do and
just love silverchair and can't get enough of them ;) I'm kinda both.
I mean don't get my wrong I love.. Well used to love The FML's but lately they've
been so stupid, and about things I'd rather not talk about or hear about I just decided
that I'd better start my own list. I still read the FML.. Well I scan them for good info.
About Nobody Came. Well, even though this song is mainly about abuse, or at least that's how I've heard the song.
I can still relate to this song. Especially the feeling of being left alone, and no one caring if things happen to you.
Feeling hopeless and depressed. Feelings I've felt a lot of the time.
I've only seen silverchair perform on SNL and Conan. I thought that on Conan they played pretty well but, that they looked bored.
Personally I think that was just a kinda "look" or something, that they were trying to look serious and "bored" I could be wrong,
I mean the only people who will ever know how they felt while performing on Conan will be Daniel, Ben, and Chris. And the SNL performance
I barely remember. Although I do remember it being on the day I got Frogstomp. And that it rocked!
And it has been a dream of mine to meet and hang out with silverchair. Not just because they rule the earth!
But because they seem like really cool guys to know. Hopefully one day I'll get backstage passes or get a chance to hang out with them.
If anybody wants to help me out on this please do!!
Don't think twice on telling me how I can get back stage or meet them:)
Later
Heidi
