I'd definitely go if he were doing an acoustic set

I mean I've seen Chamberlin in that setting twice. Only fair.

I'd probably request Jupiter's Lament. Or Real Love

There was a place called "Pumpkin Studios" in Illinois before the Smashing Pumpkins ever existed.
You can see already on the outside, where the name came from...




Founded in the seventies by the former lead singer of "The American Breed", Gary Alexander Loizzio. "Bend Me, Shape Me", SMASH Me:

I wonder if blacks will be allowed at Madame ZooZoo's 2.0 and if it will be fully mixed and integrated or whether Billy will keep things separated

His people and cars site was actually pretty cool. Definitely a unique and interesting concept. I actually enjoyed his spiritual blog too. Seemed like stuff he was very passionate about whereas I get the feeling that he's kinda just going through the motions in regards to his Pumpkins obligations.

Typical of Billy to re-issue Zuzu’s before Machina.

purchasing “vintage” paraphernalia out of a sense of imagined nostalgia, autographing it, and hawking it online for personal profit?

You're thinking of the Madame ZuZu's online store. People+Cars was the site where he'd buy old photo albums from the 50's, 60's and 70's and showcase the best pictures out of the bunch. He actually featured a lot of really cool images, the kind of documentation of a bygone era that you can't easily come across these days.

I'm actually impressed that he's opening it up again. I was assuming with utmost certainty that once the initial store closed that he wouldn't be reopening and that the plans for a new store would be yet another project buried deep down in the Billy Corgan bottomless pit of plans that went unfulfilled.

If ZuZu's did bubble tea kiosks in pretty much any major city, Corgan might make back those lost wrestling dollars and free up his musical side for some artistic work.

I assume the Tea Shop is more of a passion project than a real attempt at making good money. I remember someone posted a photo of the front of the shop and he had these REALLY terrible store hours... I'm talking only open 8 hours a day somedays. Definitely know way to run a sustainable shop

That was essentially my point.

I was suggesting that he make The Smashing Pumpkins a passion project rather than the artless exercise in recouping lost suplex dollars it clearly is.

selling overpriced dots may just be the kick in the pants he needs to put out the Machina reissue

Jean-François Gariépy is a French-Canadian alt right YouTube talker who promotes race realism, ethnostates, and other reactionary views. From 2012 to 2015, he was a postdoctoral researcher in neuroscience at Duke University, but was allegedly fired due to sexual misbehavior, although he claims that he left on his own accord.

Gariépy . . . started running his own show called "The Public Space", where he frequently invites guests associated with white supremacy, such as David Duke and Richard Spencer.

Those are all baseless smears or things taken grossly out of context. For example, he does a show every day and has on guests 5 days a week and David Duke appeared on the show ONE time. Gariepy is known for talking to a wide array of people from across all spectrums.

You failed to mention the one thing that he's best known for, his groundbreaking book

https://www.amazon.com/Revolutionary.../dp/1729861563

Quite fascinating stuff

holy shit this guy's wikipedia page

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jean-F...s_Gari%C3%A9py

Quote:
Gariépy hosts the YouTube channel The Public Space where he calls for the creation of a white ethnostate in the US and Canada. The Anti-Defamation League lists The Public Space among "White Supremacist Channels".[1]. Gariépy has been described as a "white nationalist"[2] and as a "standard bearer of the alt-right"[3]
Quote:
Jean-François Gariépy grew up in Saint-Sophie, Québec and has been married three times. Gariépy and his third wife separated in July 2015. In December 2015, his wife gave birth to his first son. In the ensuing custody case, his wife accused Gariépy of "emotional abuse" and of "threatening to abduct their child to his native Canada.
Quote:
During the custody case, Gariépy started a relationship with a 19-year old Hispanic autistic woman from Texas, and eventually convinced her to drive to North Carolina to be with him and attempted to get her pregnant. As the parents objected to her daughter's relationship with Gariépy, a case was filed in which the woman was revealed to have "the social and mental maturity of a 10- or 11-year-old child”, according to a psychologist.
Quote:
In 2014, Gariépy received $25,000 from the late sex offender Jeffrey Epstein to start the nonprofit organization NEURO.tv which was dedicated to education on science and philosophy via YouTube

He's addressed a lot of these allegations. It's common that a lot of nasty allegations can arise whenever there's custody and marital disputes. I don't put too much stock in it and really, his romantic life is none of my business.

As far as the Epstein thing goes, A lot of these billionaires hand out money in donations.

The smear tactics about this guy are just bonkers.

He's essentially just a scientist who philosophizes about existential things and the universe and stuff. Really thought provoking stuff.

Here's a clip of him philosophizing about objective reality



It's nothing radical or anything like that

Yeah, I'm sure he'll do something for it. But that's not the kind of presentation that I was speculating about
