REELZ Show About SP
 
The REELZ channel on Sunday next week is debuting their episode of Breaking the Band about SP. It is a cheesy, tabloid, bad casted, low budget show I watch & while watching the NKOTB one this week I saw the promo for the SP one. They show clips of Billy & D'arcy arguing reenactments as the narrative as to why the band broke up . And a pumpkin getting smashed.
My dvr is set.

Haha, awesome. I can't wait for BC to rage out about it in the instagram q+a

I got interviewed for this, though I don't know what they'll use. I kind of doubt they'll use any of the complimentary things I said about Billy, lol. They tried to bait me into a few things that I avoided.

I won't be watching though, no fucking way I can watch my awkward self on TV! So you guys will have to tell me how much I'm in it.

This sounds absolutely amazing

I only wish they had the actual band members reenacting it like they used to do on Unsolved Mysteries

They tried to bait me into saying that it was Billy's fault that D'arcy started using drugs but I didn't bite. I don't know if I even used the word 'drugs' specifically when talking about her because I didn't want it twisted. I basically said that after dealing with some issues she overcame it, according to what she said during the interview.

I basically talked about a lot of the stuff D'arcy said in the interview with me and how it came about, I talked a bit about the band's early days and history from a fan's perspective. I said some historical things that happened I guess as a talking head, like how Jimmy was fired after Melvoin's death and came back etc. They didn't ask me at all about the 2000's era post break up, so I kind of summed it all up in 4-5 minutes. I said that I thought Billy was the best songwriter of his generation. They probably talked to me for about an hour. Felt kind of anxious doing it, hopefully they don't cut it up to make me seem like some Billy hater, though I'm sure if he's told about the show that'll be the narrative.

Hardy Har Har.. But no.. It was a real thing on Showtime & that is all I will say. People who know me in real life know all about it. SP fans can still see me on IAGW oh and on the Yeah Yeah Yeahs DVD at the Fillmore.

Yeah, only $250. Didn't really care about the money though. I told them I'd do it for free if they drove to my place to do it. They initially wanted to do it in Hollywood but I said I wouldn't do it unless they could do it near LAX, hate driving to Hollywood. Some British lady interviewed me in a hotel lobby, with a British guy also on via Skype. First asked about the early Gish era, success of Siamese Dream and Billy's mental health issues recording it, and rivalries with some other 90's bands, asked me about the distinct personalities of the members, Jimmy's firing when Melvoin died, and some other stuff. They also asked about how D'arcy mentioned in my interview having a miscarriage. They asked about D'arcy's drug issues but I just restated what she said in the interview in very vague terms, that she had some issues but eventually got clean.

I then summed up 2000-2016 in a 4-5 minute monologue since they didn't ask any questions about it really, outside of one thing about the 2005 announcement I think. Then we talked about the interview I did with D'arcy, and her take on why negotiations with Billy fell apart. At the end I called Billy the best songwriter of his generation. I think they'll mainly use the Billy vs. D'arcy stuff from me. I'd never done an on camera interview, felt kind of weird, especially since I was talking about other people, I wanted to stick to things they have all said when talking about personal things, and then when it came to the music I came at it from a fan's perspective.

They tried to ask for the uncut 4 hours of audio from my interview with D'arcy, which I rejected.
