    More hilarious hate for Billy Corgan on here - so, you read a little bloggy about something Billy Corgan said and immediately deliver your own knocks against a fantastic musician/artist. :fp:

    +1 dude. Its like everyone is 10 years old and its the he says/she says bullshit. People should form their own opinions. Ed's great but I'm not gonna hang on every word he says and if someone says "Pearl Jam are shit" start hating that person.

    Actually, I'm a huge pumpkins fan and own just about everything Billy's done, including the short lived Zwan, but there comes a point where when everything you hear from is shit spewing from his mouth about others and it makes him intolerable to a lot of people. As far as that interview is concerned, there are plenty of other things to dislike him for besides what he said about Eddie, and as someone already mentioned, there's a reason he keeps trying to revive his band even though no one wants to work with him. He's an ass plain and simple, and he's the one acting like a 10 year old, not us.

  • They did anything after Gish? Saw them live in a small venue, maybe 600 people in 93 or 94. He spent most of the time between songs preaching about how artistic he is/was. Whatever man.

    Must say I like the new album - Oceania ... after last few records finally smtg which caught my attention!

    saw them live few years back (2007 ?) ... was terrible ... wall of noise to be honest ... but recently they sound pretty fresh to me ...

    My dislike of Billy Corgan has nothing to do with whether or not he likes Pearl Jam or any other kind of jam for that matter. To me, Smashing Pumpkins has a decent album or 2, and a few decent songs spattered across the rest of their records, but I've never really cared much for or about them. At times Billy's voice sounds like a dying goat, he hasn't written a decent song in 10 years, and he seems to be stomping his feet like a 12 year old lately just trying to get someone to pay attention to him. He's like the Axl Rose of alt rock.

    +1 !!
    Gish was a good album...mot much since 1995 onwards that caught my attention... And saw them in Feb 2008 and it was truly dreadful...One of only 2 gigs I have left early... As a Valentine's Night Out for me and the missus it was memorable...Heard Oceana was a return to form...Heard that a few times over the last 15 Years... I don't care whether he's a nob or not... He just doesn't write particularly good songs in my opinion... Which is a shame given the early promise...

    I don't think anyone here based their opinion on Billy on whether or not he likes Eddie, he's just so whiney and bitter now, and always expressing his lame opinion on everyone. Just worry about your smashing pumpkins cover band billy, please

    People please. Let's stop worrying about Billy Corgan. We have two fellow fans in need right now. One who wants to go to Indiana and one who wants a Ferrari. Instead of focusing our hate can we focus our energies towards love for these two?
  • I met Billy Corgan once.
    He has a really big head and freakishly large hands, I'm pretty sure he's an alien.

  • no one should care what any celebrity ever says about another, whether you are fans of the former or the latter.

    do you like the music? that's all that matters. I'll give a shit what Billy Corgan says if he ever runs for office (or something that would actually affect the world around me). Until then, I'll just dig his awesome music.

  • I also find all the "corgan is just a whiney bitch" and "he hasn't written a decent song since 1995" quite humourous. Don't you realize that's the exact same shit you people get all bent out of shape about when non-PJ fans say that about Ed?

    Exactly. I wonder what you all would say if Billy married a model.

    You've forgotten my little need, DS. Might as well throw my hat in the ring here too, right?

    On a more related note, I am bummed now that I wore a SP t-shirt to see PJ at Soldier Field in 1995 :shifty: Damn.
