This stuff all rings really true but like the other articles has it’s puzzling moments. Like how there’s a recording of Billy and James covering Bowie’s Kooks in 1993 and that year they also mentioned attempting to cover Moonage Daydream for a compilation that never came out or got finished. Again... nobody’s perfect.

Yeah exactly... It baffles me that with such a big production that they wouldn't have a set offer figured out to entice her with. Billy was trying to manipulate her into thinking that it was her choice, when really he had the ultimatum worked out in his mind already... So I don't understand why Smashing Pumpkins INC wouldn't at least have the offer on the table to entice her with...

I mean he gives her the run around, he leads her on, and then when he reneges on the offer he doesn't even have the decency to have worked out an offer? Good god, after all they've been through and everything. She's not just some hired hand for crying out loud.

Lol oh I'm sure.

I dunno, this has all been handled in typical Corgan fashion. I don't know why I'm surprised, but I am... Good on D'arcy for finally hitting back. It's still just such a letdown considering what could have been.

you can call that "trying to get her on board" - I call it being too cheap to pay for what he wanted. a guest appearance and otherwise let the arena tour go on like they had planned, with no D'arcy risk, and simply pay for that. a mis-manipulation attempt, if you will.

otherwise - if you have no plans to meet, reunite, hang out and play - you simply put a contracted offer on the table, in clear terms.

She seems to have way more clarity in this part of than the interview than the others.

This story sounds very similar to what happened with Jim Martin and Faith No More in 2009.

[quote=Shadaloo;4421619]"I apparently turned down a whole lot of offers that I had that I didn’t know about. Another thing that really pisses me off he destroyed my career, I couldn’t get anybody to play with me after his slanderous statements he made over the years about me. I couldn’t even make friends, it was horrible. My life was really bad a lot of the time because of the things that he said: ‘Oh she’s a worse drug addict than Jimmy. Oh, she’s a mean drunk. Oh, she was a mean drug addict.’ No, I just wasn’t going to take his shit.”

Girl you need psychological help. She blames billy for her fucked up life? Bitch- you are responsible for your life. Shes playing the victim. Omg- happily she isnt involved in anything. Billy seems difficult but she is a lost soul that accuses others for her probs.

The Pumpkins more smashing than ever before...


Jack Bates retweeted this Pitchfork news on his Twitter account.
The first official sign of his involvement at the tour!

The secret of Billy's voice effect:

D'arcy:
"“He used to use my voice, after Daydream he didn’t let me sing another song. He was so jealous he wouldn’t let me sing another song again. That wasn’t the way that it was going to be, I was going to sing more than that. Even when I would sing on other stuff, he wouldn’t use effects on his voice, he would use my voice as an effect for his voice, and turn it down so much and make me match his singing.






Richard Patrick two years ago:


zerosignal_24:
Sir sir !@filter_richard_patrick didn't she also do vocals on "cancer"?
+
filter_richard_patrick:
Yes she did.. She doubled mine.. Which is what she did when she was in the pumpkins.. That's why I thought Billy sounded so good.. It was because she sang it an octave higher in falsetto... She added this breathy texture to his super midrange tone.. Sadly they've never been the same since..

The last article with unreleased material is going up tonight. It has Billy's thoughts on D'arcy and James' good looks, D'arcy's honest thoughts on Billy's singing, a story about The Marked, and what D'arcy says Billy told her about fans.

D'arcy has two sisters, Molly and Tanya...

Do you have to check the voice recordings for the right passage?

Healthier than extreme headbanging

I'm glad Brett did the interview. We get more anecdotes than from more established music magazines. No one forces you to read them all...

Nobody knows what really happened back then. Billy is obviously a nightmare. But darcy seems to have probs. If i was billy i would not invite her too. Shes a mess. Weird interview. Likely that she has alcohol or drug problems. Her swollen face comes from alcohol. Thats typical.
