these are smashing pumpkins fans.
aren't they a blast of special.

this shit is cringe. quality top tier cringe.


Thank you billy for bringing me lots of laughs on this dreary and cold tuesday morning. I haven't laughed so much since the last season of Nathan for You.

MCIS had a huge impact on me. More certainly than I expect any other album to do. I was a teenager, wrestling with a lot of things, and the emotional range of MCIS was just right. Also, it was doing things musically that I had not heard before. MCIS is a true masterpiece, though some of the lyrics have not aged well. Or perhaps I have aged too much.

My first real rock concert was Rockpalast with the Smashing Pumpkins, yes, that Düsseldorf '96 concert. There were a lot of bands that day. The lineup was insane! Sonic Youth, Afghan Whigs, Filter, Garbage, Cypress Hill, with the Smashing Pumpkins headlining. Oh yes, and Chumbawamba, but before "Tubthumping". I was there mostly for the Pumpkins and Garbage, but I discovered Afghan Whigs that day. Sonic Youth was too noisy for my taste (then).

There was a point when I thought I would listen to the Smashing Pumpkins forever. I was a fan of BC until 2008, I'd say. I even enjoyed Zeitgeist, but his behaviour and the decline in the quality of the music became too much. Zeitgeist was the last album I bought, and I didn't even finish listening to any of his releases after Monuments.

I will certainly not cry whenever Tonight, Tonight is on, and I am not even that emotionally stable :-)

Lmao there's a couple of pretty interesting memorabilia in there but you know what? I'm not going to read the story of that botched tattoo on your foot, thanks.

Undisputed number one

write a memory on each petal!

never heard of this record

thanks

who can write a memory that tops all the other ones already there, and get it published on sp.com?

Mellon Collie and the Infinite Zombies

I'd love to submit a bullshit story but it's probably monitored

I wonder if Monte (or a Monty imposter) will submit something?

that's the challenge. write a bullshit story more outrageous than the rest, but write it in a way that will get it through the monitoring.
if you see what got through already, this mustn't be too hard.

must include references to micropenis and ethical stalking.

tears of joy? fuzzy!

^ bought the bootleg lol

this one is quite cool:

Still probably a better move than buying 20 copies of Zeit lol

BURRRRRRRRRRRRRRN! :D

and of course, false, but fun to pretend

Holy fuck, that'a a gem, she lived the dream of every fan and with the band at their peak.

it pays off to scream and cry at concerts!

Did the same two years later, front row. All I got was a very upset security staff lol

awesome she still got the tape; i imagine they had a ton to deal with right after those july dates

Wtf didn’t realize it was the week before Melvoin’s death and the end of the golden era.

Wow, I knew her! I met her at a diner in like 98-00 and she told me about this tape billy gave her with Jennifer Ever on it and a version of that story. She never showed it to me or told me the rest of the tracks though. I tried to get a copy but it never happened. I think billy told her to not copy it or something. I recall we kept in touch here and there for a few years on AIM. That’s my Mellon Collie memory.
