Jimmy, getting back his "rig"...:

”In even more exciting news, a woman in Helena found Jimmy Chamberlin’s original heroin rig that he used from Gish up through the Melanoma and the Indelible Badness years. It was the same rig his father had taught him to mainline with, and his father’s father had taught him to shoot up with. It had been in the family since it had been won in a poker match off of Edgar Allan Poe, many moons ago. Chamberlin had tears in his eyes when he saw the surgical tubing and syringe for the first time in 20 years. While he has been sober since then, upon seeing the family junk wallet again, he admitted that his drumming had suffered during the separation, and that he looked forward to doing a “BIG OL’ BLAST” within the next five minutes. Along with Corgan being reunited with hi s ‘74 Strat (a unicorn in the guitar world, as there were only a mere 80,000 produced that year,) Buckethead in full drag - with kabuki makeup and a blonde wig - doing a very convincing D’arcy on bass guitar, a newly recruited Kirk Hammett in a freshly straightened Iha-bob playing second guitar, and the actual James Iha opting for the role of Tour Manager (rather than accepting an invitation from Courtney Love to join a reunited Hole), the “Pumpkins” were BACK!!! Ready to hit the festival circuit. Gonna be EXACTLY like the Gish days. Look out, world!”
