Latest addition to the long list of questionable decisions... :dammit: As if their performance of 'Fly' by Sugar Ray with Mark McGrath wasn't bad enough, this is just as cringeworthy

Tinted Windows

Fuck Hanson, fuck Mmmbopadoowopadoo and fuck Billy Corgan.

I'd rather listen to a bit of MmmBop than Whoaoaawow!

I'd rather get back nuts caught in a C clamp than listen to either

The guy really likes teaming up with people with embarrassing musical careers.

Friekin lighten up you dummies its just for fun, gosh

You say that, but let's not forget that Billy included excruciating videos of McGrath in the Shiny tour and even made him the worst part of that stupid Silvery video. Would it shock anyone if Hanson showed up on the next tour?

RIIIIGHT ON

I......would have enjoyed this. I'll take myself to the dumpster now.

Looking forward to the 2020 tour where they do it w/ the Dixie Chicks

I love how, for the last 20 years, Billy consistently pointed to pop stars, boy and girl groups, and celebrity culture as the death of alternative culture. He even mentioned in some interview that the band used to joke that "Spin magazine in 1998" signaled the death of the band. Yet, since then, we've seen him hang with (and he's been complimentary of) Paris Hilton, Tila Tequila, Mark McGrath, Fred Durst/Limp Bizkit, and now Hanson. Admittedly, the Hanson connection make a little more sense because of James Iha's connection to the group; but still.

Jessica Simpson, The Veronicas

This rules, and if it leads to a future where we somehow get a live version of Messing With My Head I will die. Of joy.

Who even has the energy to be upset about this? You paid to see Billy live in 2018. Pray he doesn't alter the deal further.

b0lly hung out with fred durst?

whatever record had "MmBop" on it is probably a better listening experience than the past couple of Smashing Pumpkins records, tbh

b0lly hung out with fred durst?

ya i was surprised by that too. I've only heard of one thing involving Bill & Fred and it was Billy saying he was surprised a macho band like Limp Bizkit was inspired by Siamese & Mellon Collie

shit, lemmy kilmister was macho

limp bizkit are doofus posers.

dude...

just...


no.

i wouldn't of done that if it weren't the "meme of the day"

what can i say i was feeling FESTIVE

how many jucifers do you have in you?

I'd totally hang with Fred Durst.

Take that to mean what you will.

I would sacrifice Fred Durst on an altar of Megalothon horn in order to resurrect Lemmy for 10 minutes so that we could hang out.

Take that to mean what you will.

Friekin lighten up you dummies its just for fun, gosh

People are so emotionally invested in this band that they feel vicarious embarrassment when Corgan does something "uncool," because these fans are insecure about looking uncool in association.

It's okay, don't listen to the other kids at school who tell you that your favourite band is lame because they hang out with uncool pop stars on stage.

i'll take it to mean that Significant Other is your favorite album of all time & I am here to let you know that I will be right here by your side through these trying times

how many jucifers do you have in you?

Funny you should mention that, I was just about to leave & go get 6 :beatup:

Boy I gotta say I was not expecting 3 posts to be made in the mere moments between Flaming Globes' post on the last page & my own, quote-less response. But such is life, & I will leave it just as it is

you should get 12 jucifers

lemmy would get 12 (and some meth)

damn how tight can their pants be

also love how they didn't rehearse this at all, which i guess is probably normal. they fuck it up near the end but billy pulls it back together with some palm mute-disguised counting

Meh. Too much filler. I was more of a $3 Bill, Y'all kinda guy.

Let me guess Billy, you're playing the heel again. How edgy and ironic.

It almost feels like he's trying to really ramp up and exaggerate the heel aspect of his performance in an attempt to prove to people that he really was just playing a heel during all those years when he was being a complete asshole.

Haha oh yeah, fuzzy is still around.

Fun.

Hawt.

Fuzzy, which LB album is your fav? I'm gonna put you down as a Chocolate Starfish kinda dude.

Good album, but for me and my fandom, it was all about Significant Other:cool:

Ugh no. Chocolate Starfish is bad even by LB standards. I knew the party was over when that clunker came out.

I bet MonumentsRocks is a Results May Vary kind of guy.

Story time: Tulsa native, late summer 1995, I’m a young kid cruising the neighborhood on my bicycle. I have a cassette player, I’m jamming Pisces Iscariot. I live right next to Drapp studios. See some kids in the parking lot and ride over to them. It’s the Hanson’s, they’re chilling after a day of recording. I let Taylor Hanson listen to my yellow Sony sports cassette player. He really likes what he’s hearing. Fast forward fourteen years. My band finishes a set at a downtown bar to about ten drunks and a few vagrants. I sneak off with the $24 I made and decide to spend it on a barbeque dinner. I walk up to the joint, it’s the side stage of Tulsa’s historic Cain’s Ballroom. I go in and the food area is closed. There is a band playing. Its Taylor Hanson’s new band Tinted Windows. James Iha is standing out on the small stage and they play some of the most godawful music I’ve ever heard to about thirty people. Fast forward to last night. I am front row, dead center at a 2018 SP show. I am not having a great time. Already got into a fight during the opening band. There are late 40’s, early 50-year old’s spilling beer everywhere. It smells like marijuana and sweaty ass. Billy has gone completely batshit insane, Jimmy is completely tuned out (he spaces out multiple time and Billy even comments about his attention), James is absolutely beaming with ear to ear smiles and is genuinely having a great time. Jeff and the other nameless dude are whatever. They announce a special musical guest. It’s the fucking Hanson’s and they are getting to sing with the fucking band. Life, full circle or something.

Yeah, I was kinda done with them at that point too. Really wasn't digging Rollin' or My Generation at the time, though I do like both now.

Quite honestly, I didn't actually listen to the full album until only like 5 years ago (my musical interests moved quickly in those days), but there's a lot of shit I quite like on it.

got damn if i hadn't grown up w/ that album so to speak (or well, if my friends & i hadn't listened to it during our 11 y.o. summer) i am not so sure i'd give it much benefit of the doubt at all. Still tho, at least Wes Borland kept the guitar side of things relatively interesting, when he wasn't relegated to "my first guitar book" power chord sheeit for Fred to go @ Trent Reznor over

Fred just spews diarrhea all over that thing. Even at 16, I was embarrassed to listen to it.

What's your favorite LB album?

I'm sure it sounded lovely, they're talented vocalists. not sure what the big deal is here

I mean, I haven't listened to Hanson since Middle of Nowhere in 1997(?) but their career isn't really that embarrassing, especially if we're using SP/BC as a measuring stick.
They escaped the bubblegum pop and apparently make legit music, have a craft beer, etc. I bet their older lady fan base could be a little embarrassing but I really doubt they are embarrassed by their career tbh.

It is. I still ride for Middle of Nowhere, as evidenced by my comment above.

I hooked up with this girl last summer who said she had been to like 20 Hanson concerts.

it's a secret no one knows

They sounded terrible. Nothing to blandish:

Took my love... took it down...mmmhmm a DO WOP MMMBOP A DOOWOP A DOOOO

Fuck them all.

That's fair. My point is really though that Billy tends to go out of his way to go to bat for/perform with people that aren't exactly looked on as having a lot of credibility: Hanson, Mark McGrath, Fred Durst. He probably sees them all and himself as underdogs.

Nothing to blandish:

This is probably a joke for me and me alone so I apologize but
