I'm sure it would've been a departure, but I don't think it would have been as drastic if Jimmy was around and the overdose never happened.

For the record, I agree Adore was made exactly the way it should have been. It seems like it captured the feeling and essence of the band perfectly.

I agree. Adore is beautiful as it is. and it did reflect the bands emotional state during that time, especially Billy's. No other album i've heard captures loss more than this one does.

The interesting part was afterwards. I went outside and saw a couple of vans coned off. I wasn't above hanging out so I did. A goateed fella came out (band bodyguard) and said the band would be out and requested we stand on the other side of the street and not "rush them." NO AUTOGRAPHS, NO SHAKING HANDS ( I understand that, getting sick would ruin the rest of the residencies and shaking hands is the worst thing you can do) The crowd of 50 or so including me hung out to see what would happen.

Jeff came out first and nodded to the fans before getting into a jeep and driving off. Ginger came out next and was really cool and gracious. I asked her what she though of netphoria and she said she heard it was "scary." She is a midget and super hot in real life. A really cool girl. The keyboard player garnered minimal attention but seemed nice.

Next Jimmy came out and nodded to the fans but didn't come over.

So, Billy comes out next and saunters over to the crowd. He walks right up on me and I couldn't help but ask "So Billy, what do you think of netphoria?" His response: "*snarl* I don't read that bullshit"

Godddamn. Seems Billy knows what kind of hatred goes on around here. Several people were filming but the only name I got was "Jimmypop97." he said he was going to post it on youtube. It felt funny being talked down to and verbally dissed by a childhood hero but I was glad to represent Netphoria. Hopefully this tape emerges as it could netphoria gold and indisputable proof of what Billy thinks about this place.

Was anyone else there for this?
We're all happy to know that you're the fucking idiot who got to talk to your childhood hero and all you could think to talk to him about was Netphoria, wow, good job shithead...
don't be pissed because you're a fucking idiot...

Im not going to read 8 pages worth of comments on this, but I was standing right next to the original poster, I came here and registered because I knew this kid was going to post something on here about it since he asked ginger and billy about netphoria.

He said to billy "Billy, do you ever go to netphoria, netphorians love you"
to which he said
"thats bullshit"
the poster said something else like "no, we really do"
BC said "bullshit" and moved on to a question about Set the Ray to Jerry.

The original poster seemed to be a bit too obsessed with netphoria, but anyway, BC didnt neccessarily call netphoria bullshit, just the quote of "everyone at netphoria loves you" to be bullshit

The truth is:

1. Despite whatever Billy thinks of this message board he still reads the board here on a fairly regular basis. (There is ample evidence to support this.) He may hate it here publicly but he doesn't ignore or dismiss this site at all.

2. Netphoria has been mentioned to Billy many times in the past, in most cases he either ignores it or doesn't directly address it.

3. After talking with Pumpkins management earlier it was clear that Billy and the band recognize the importance of this message board, there simply isn't any other Pumpkins message board that is as large or creates as much buzz as Netphoria does. The longevity of this board also cannot be ignored either.
How does Billy know it's bullshit if he doesn't read it? Or have someone else read and report back to him.

Yeah I was right across from that kid when he said that shameless promo and Billy turned to me rolled his eyes, and I responded by saying "Fuck Netphoria", which billy then nodded and pointed in my direction for saying. Billy was really cool with us up till that kid opened his mouth, then he just kind of left and lost interest.

Prior to the kid talking however- I did take the opportunity to call bullshit on Billy and let him know he lied during the show when he said he never played "Rotten Apples" live before. {KROQ Acoustic X-Mas} He laughed and said, "Really, oh well," and shrugged his shoulders. He also said in response to me telling him know the shows kept getting better each night that he thought it was "because of the sound", which I assume means because of them tweaking everything during soundchecks. He did seem to agree though about them getting better. I was going to ask more questions- but then the kid namedropped this place.

It was pretty clear he said "I don't read that bullshit."

I honestly wasn't trying to be a dick about it.
