Zwan reissue & tour

[amoergosum]

Flashback (2012):

Billy:

“Once we clear the Pumpkins’ first era, then I have about 65 unreleased Zwan songs, I have a ton of unreleased stuff relating to my solo album ‘The Future Embrace,’ and then there’s a ton of ‘Zeitgeist’ demos, probably songs I should have put on the album, that are pretty interesting and well-done. Also I have two unreleased acoustic records, plus an unreleased acoustic soundtrack — three albums worth of acoustic albums from the mid-2000s that are totally unreleased. So I’m hoping to just do everything chronologically.”

There is simply no sense in getting excited for these kinds of comments from Billy, since chances of that happening so slim, but fuck I hope those releases come true

He actually released Gish to Adore reissues pretty much on time, Machina was in standby due to deals issues with the label.

[bright_doom]

yeah but bill will release it only on vinyl and streaming.
woo hoo ...

[Cool As Ice Cream]

only available if you buy it together with $900 of tea. ZUZUS EXCLUSIVE DUE TO POPULAR DEMAND (not signed not numbered)

[Bat Strat Dude]

I want the Spun soundtrack material.

No interest in a "2/5ths of Zwan" reunion tour.

I really wish Zwan would have stuck together longer. I'm one of the ones who loved MSOTS and I've always wanted to hear more of their stuff but all the bootlegs I could find of their concerts online were so awful that I could barely tell what the hell their other music sounded like.


Also, Billy looks really friendly with Paz here. I wonder if the real reason they broke up was a love triangle with Bill, Paz and Pajo.

Bill first announced the reissues right after the Metro show in December 2000, so it took eleven years for the first one to come out. By the time we get any of the 2000s stuff it will likely have been 20 years since the announcement was made

I'm imagining the level of vitriol Billy would reach in the liner notes for a MSOTS reissue and it's fucking amazing to think about

It's a little more intimate, to put hands on the belly, like Billy does here again on the one of Paz, than on the shoulders...

Happier Birthday, Björn:

I think it was just to indicate they were all friends

PS Can someone with Instagram ask Sweeney if he's involved or even knows about Billy's plans to tour Zwan?

[houseofglass11]

Bill is the king of the NDA, you really think Sweeney would spill the beans?

Notice how the guys kind of hang their forearms over each other's shoulder, with their hands not making any gropy contact? If Billy had done something more like that, that would have been less of a lawsuit liability.

Notice how Paz is almost on his lap, her hands on billy's legs?

Cut the bullshit.

Yeah. Always have been. Ick

[eviltimeban]

Billy is very hands on.

[amoergosum]

...cued up:

[Kumar Littlejeans]

He also stated a couple points in these Q&As that he has no memory of a couple Hideout songs, so few of those probably exist outside the bootlegs.

[eviltimeban]

Is it Zwan if it's just Billy and Jimmy though? Flip a coin, it could also be Pumpkins.

I suppose they fact they'd be playing Zwan only... but who beyond hardcore fans is going to go to that? Unless they do small club dates. Though that's not Billy's style.

[Shadaloo]

Paz always looked like she farted into her hand and is about to get Billy to smell it in that picture.

[Zer0 Hour]

A fart from Paz is a GIFT damn it. You wish she would fart on you.

Nowhere in my post do I deny this

But for real, the guy was always obviously crushing on her hard. Always thought that comment about 'sex acts in public' or hand jobs under a table or whatever was partially fuelled by jealousy.
