LP: [Smashing Pumpkins’] Gish had come out and that was a huge record for us—for me and Nina anyway. I remember I would go to this coffee shop where D’Arcy [Wretsky, Pumpkins’ bassist] was waiting tables and James [Iha, Pumpkins’ guitarist] would come in and they would play checkers and she’d show him a painting in the bathroom. I thought they were so cool. Then I saw the cover of the Illinois Entertainer, which was a monthly rag there, and they were on the cover, and I was like, “Oh, shit! Those guys are in a band.”

I just watched Willie Wonka three times straight thru but see no reference for Veruca Salt having said this.

LOL why would they go into the bathroom together multiple times to look at a painting, I don't get it

don't be daft topleybird

they were clearly going over song structures & dynamic changes so that come rehearsal time, the Bald Lord (then known as the Maned Lord) would be pleased.

Nicole was in both bands... after they both sucked
