so there was 5 bald guys? maybe that's why d'arcy left?
I'm remembering watching this from quite some time ago, but if I remember correctly: Billy, Garson, Arnoff and 1 of the 2 other drummers were completely bald.

At the time I just remember thinking: "ahhh fucking Corgan, now that he's bald he thinks it's a cool look to have other bald guys performing with him".

It was kinda strange though. Here were the Pumpkins this iconic band known for their youthful exuberant appearance and here they are on their new tour with a bunch of old bald dudes. Couldn't have helped the whole vibe around Adore.

It is a stupid thing to discuss. But of all the topics that have been beaten to death over SP's career I don't think I've ever seen this once mentioned.

Once Billy went completely bald he became a punchline for a lot of jokes. So I think in his mind he thought it would be edgy to have a bunch of guys as bald as he was up on stage with him. Making some kind of anti alt/rock statement.

Sounds illogical and all, but I'm strictly basing this theory on the insanity of Corgan at the time.

No. I forget the exact anecdote. But Sharon Osbourne mentioned in her book that Corgan was deadset on hiring ugly people to be around him during appearances or something stupid like that.

I still can't believe Billy kicked Matt Walker outta the band for this fucking guy
http://www.drumsoloartist.com/Site/D...nnyAronoff.gif

They literally needed 2 other drummers with him to try and maintain the sound

that was the true beginning of the band's downfall, motherfucker

Shaving their heads off COMPLETELY? That is commitment!

Anyone know the name of this guy? He shaved his head off COMPLETELY, also played with the Pumpkins in 1998.

The band on that tour was the best set of musicians for the sound that Billy wanted to create.
