Official poll: Will you boycott the upcoming tour because of D'arcy?
 
There was a lot of enthusiasm here for the new tour. I am curious how much has changed in light of recent events.

Feel free to add written comment in the space provided below––

If they came this way then yeah sure I guess so

Oklahoma Sexual 02-15-2018 01:38 AM

no, but not going cause of billy

Shadaloo 02-15-2018 01:44 AM

Nah. I never had a real chance to see the original band in their heyday, and I wound up missing the brief Melissa era because of conflicting plans and I kicked myself for it for years. If I can at least see Billy, James and Jimmy on stage together once, that's good enough for me. I wish it were the original lineup, but tough shit.

how about a "want to go and can't" option, cuz that's me T_T

Bollyslolly 02-15-2018 02:15 AM

If they come to Australia then I will definitely go. I was prepared to travel overseas to see original 4 but not worth it now. This news with D'arcy is sad, I feel bad for her. I'm a new fan and was excited by the news of reunion and my chance to see sp live. I'm only discovering now what a real cunt billy is, I thought he's just misunderstood..

shadow47 02-15-2018 02:38 AM

It's the whole vibe/attitude. The idea was, restart the band the right way. Everybody's more mature, issues are resolved, just remember the music, etc. But it's clear BC is as nasty, manipulative, and cruel as ever, maybe moreso. I am with D'Arcy in saying I am disappointed with James agreeing to go along with this. Chamberlin has always been close with BC, Corgan is just, as someome so aptly put it recently, "insufferable."

teh b0lly!!1 02-15-2018 02:44 AM

yeah, if they played like within 30 mins of my house, and the tickets were very reasonably priced, and i'd have nothing better to do that night... i'd go











TO THROW ROTTEN TOMATOES AT BILLY FROM 1ST ROW

MarquisInSpades 02-15-2018 02:45 AM

Rotten apples would be more appropriate :')

Ram27 02-15-2018 05:32 AM

I would've really only gone if they were playing <2 hours away, tickets were cheap, and it was just the original 4

Jeff being inclewded plus the D'arcy bullshit plus the obvious cash grab arena bullshit...nah

I mean, even if they play fuckin Meladori Magpie->Marquis in Spades->Jellybelly, I wouldn't want to see it cause Jeff would be playing on everything

Will definitely not go to a show.

LaBelle 02-15-2018 07:00 AM

I won't give Billy another cent. Also i'm sure they won't come to brazil so it's all moot.

Brazil is awesome. Best crowds by far.

eviltimeban 02-15-2018 07:16 AM

Will go. Last SP show in Dublin was 2008 and it was mired by terrible sound and a weird set list. So I'd definitely go if it was played in the likes of the 3 Arena.

run2pee 02-15-2018 09:23 AM

Hmmmmmmmm

Part of me wants to boycott bill but at the same time i don’t want to give him the power of keeping me from music that i continue to love solely b/c he’s a butthole

So, for me right now it kinda depends on the set list. From the leaked texts it sounds like this is gonna be a greatest shits tour. I went to plainsong and thought it was great, more of a treat for longtime/knowledgeable fans than a cynical cash grab. Everything we’ve learned so far about this makes it sound like the latter

whywontyoulistn 02-15-2018 10:02 AM

Yeah I'll go. Even with all the shit, it'll still be good to see Jimmy (and James?) again, and I don't want my D'arcy heckles to go to waste. I just hope Billy sticks to realistic venues. Shepherds Bush Empire was a good show, Wembley Arena was not, and it was only Ash being announced as support that prompted me to buy a ticket. I didn't even bother with the next tour. Mikey caused too much pain.

Candy Cane 02-15-2018 10:18 AM

Personally, I'm stoked about seeing Jack Bates- distant cousin, if I'm not mistaken, to a hero of mine.

eyeboogers 02-15-2018 10:25 AM

There should be an option for undecided. The treatment of D'arcy has for now killed all enthusiasm, but I still hope someone that is actually in the band matures enough to call her on the phone.

I had a great time at that show. Lost one of my shoes.

soniclovenoize 02-15-2018 12:08 PM

Hmm all these posters with <500 posts are skewing the results...

ButterflyBullet 02-15-2018 12:13 PM

Even on the off chance they bring that shitshow to Australia, I'm still not sure I would go. I don't think I want anything to do with the 'reunion' now tbh.

Why can't you go, gurrrrrl?

houseofglass11 02-15-2018 02:51 PM

I'm surprised at the amount of people saying they're going to go. Supposedly OUTRAGED at how D'arcy has been treated yet here's Bobo back for another round at the till and you're all ready to lay down your ducats just so you can hear your favorite tunez feat. Jeff Schroeder chief noodler and Jack fuxxing Bates.

The announcement of the OMGSHUEGAYZ three guitar attak!!! is really making me grit my teeth over this one. Hopefully the US arena tour will bomb and I won't have to worry about them coming to the UK. Fuck Jeff, this should be Billy vs James.

lucid_interval 02-15-2018 03:05 PM

Hey guys, I'm back! How have you all been??

I'll be going , Darcy sounds fucking mental and if you old folk took your heads out of your backsides you'd realise Billy was being quite sensible in asking her to join not knowing how fucked up she is.

Her phone interview proved she's completely off the rails, nobody at that age with any sense of decorum would talk like that. I'm not surprised James doesn't speak to her or return her calls anymore.

Thoughts?
