He's more special than you because he's the guy who tunes the smashing pumpkins' guitars, and you're not. I thought that was obvious.

My old guitar teacher said when he was with his band and they opened for SP back in the 90s, one of the coolest parts was backstage when Billy and James turned on the amps before their set began and tuned the guitars themselves while making all sorts of weird noises and shit.

Yeah, SP tuned their own guitars at this show he played with them. I don't remember the specifics since he told me everything 4 years ago, although his band was called 'Millions' or something like that.

Notice they have the same security guy (the guy with the beard and the headphone things!) at every show. He is awesome.

No, I'm sorry to disappoint you, it's not true (though my father WOULD make an incredible security man... he's very frightening to those who don't know him, so I hear). I honestly have no idea why I claimed he was my dad. No idea...
