smashing pumpkins

[htsamurai]

thanks guys

[Blurillaz]

I've never listened to them.

I like that Rat in a Cage song.

Sweet jesus, I found that video almost as silly as I find TNA's storylines (which at best make little sense). Still the song fits in with the show's gimmick in the cheesiest way (EVERY match is in a cage).


Of course, read the comments section and you see a bunch of people confused as to why Billy let his songs be used in the "rasslin" business. He's always been a fan.

I actually liked the "Doomsday Clock" video that Ring of Honor used:

Kick-ass rock song, set to a video of men (and women) hitting each other really hard (in a fake sport, mind), dropping each other on their heads and doing cool flips & dives.

All wackiness aside, in recent weeks I've eased off on the Pumpkins a little, but I still love the full 8-minute version of "Drown":

Feedback solos rule.

(EDIT: This was my 100th post, and it's about wrestling and Smashing pumpkins. My friends would think this was written as a caricature of myself)

For me, it's ALL about the first two albums.

I'd say that makes Courtney a dick...

[Jenesis]

Never bothered with them.

[iblamesummers]

i think i remember reading in that unathorized bio of Courtney Love that she was fucking Billy C. while she was MARRIED to teh Kurdtz.

When Siamese Dream came out i was wallowing in the mire of pop radio and bad R&B (i grew up on an army base in germany) i was so out of the music loop that I turned down free tickets and backstage passes for some band that called themselves "pearl jam".... on a whim i grabbed this CD in the post exchange because i thought the cover looked cool....

there's no better time than right now to find new music, even if it's old.... if it's good it's good forever.... i just started listening to the Pixies after 14 years of knowing who they were an ignoring it, now i'm gonna be seeing them in NYC this thanksgiving weekend and cannot wait....

OH, and the first song i learned to play on guitar was "Today".... i don't give a crap about Billy Corgan's personal life, but his music affected mine....

[Teej212]

ur going to that pixies show???? damn, i might still go as long as i can find reasoonable ticket prices

[stanimal]

are the ticket prices that insane right now? i lucked out, just happened to catch an article about their tour months before tickets went on sale and set EVERY calendar alarm i had on various electronic devices to warn me when they go on sale....

yeah, to see these guys doing the entire Doolittle album AND rare b-sides is gonna be sweet, try to go!!!
