Artis the Spoonman is a Seattle local street artist. He's the one on Pearl Jam's "Spoonman," although I haven't heard that track. Since Soundgarden is a Seattle band, I would assume that "Superunknown" is also Artis. I doubt that the NY spoonman is the same, unless Artis has visited there in his new-found "fame." Artis has a solo CD out with backing support from another local Seattle band (who are actually very good) - Sadhappy. In addition to street performances, Artis has also played Bumberdrum at Bumbershoot, and I'm sure a lot of the other concerts like Lallapaloosa (I suppose). I have no idea about Underworld. They could have sampled any of the above or even convinced Artis to play with them if they've been to Seattle.

The Spoonman in the Soundgarden universe is from Seattle. I highly doubt it's the same guy, or that Underworld's is about any specific person. -Phil [----------] [---] [-----] [-----] [-----] [----------] [---] [---] [---] [---] [---] [---] [---] [---] [---] [---] [---] [---] [---] [---] [---] [---] [----------] [----------] [---] [---] [----------] [----------] [---] [---] [---] [---] [---] [---] [---] [---] [---] [---] [---] [--------] [-----] [-----] [---] [-----] [----------] Home is where the stereo is!
