Still thinking he'll feature in a minimal capacity if at all. "We had a visitor to the studio the other day" would imply as much. I've been burned so many times. No fucking way they'll get D'arcy on board even though Jimmy said the original lineup would be back.

Remember when James allegedly contributed to Ogilala by playing a sustained note?

With that said, a day visit is not a long time.

How can D’arcy see this picture and not jump onboard?

Regardless of whatever this projects ends up being - a Smashing Pumpkins album or another Billy solo album - it cannot be understated how cool it is to see Billy, James, and Jimmy working together in a studio again for the first time. If I remember correctly, James' contribution to Ogilala was recorded after Billy recorded the rest of the album.

In all seriousness, I would not be too upset if James and/or D'arcy made minimal contributions like this in the future. It would be a cool way to keep them involved with the band's legacy without the four of them falling into the same disagreements that arose during the band's original run.

As for D'arcy - and I say this with complete respect for her as a musician - I just do not think she's up for the task of playing full-time with Billy again. I'm not saying she couldn't if she wanted to, but it seems like she has settled into a relatively quiet, relaxed, and private life. In that 2009 interview, she mentioned that she would only be interested in playing music if it felt fun and she could work outside the stress of the music industry. I really cannot imagine she would enjoy being around Billy (a man who thrives on talking about and operating in the music industry) for months at a time, while having to be able to play 60+ songs at any given moment.

Anyone who reads my posts knows that I will call Billy out on his bullshit, but I really do think he has handled his revived contact with D'arcy and James really well. It truly appears he is more interested in keeping the friendships alive than rushing for a reunion album and tour.

If D’arcy were there, they would say it. You guys speculated that James might have been there all along, but see, once he actually was there they made it known.

Thumbs up Yes!

Love this photo.

Come on D'arcy, go enjoy the Cali sunshine and play a little music with those guys. See what happens. It's not as if you can't get on a plane back whenever you feel like it.

This looks shopped. I can tell from some of the pixels and from seeing quite a few shops in my time.

no.
I'm a firm believer that james and d'arcy were the taste makers in the band.
without them Billy's left to explore ideas that are kind of lame.
I imagine d'arcy would talk back to billy all the time and keep him in line.
james would do the opposite and use silence against him forcing billy to work and seek his approval. All for the best results.

"Hey James do you wanna contribute to songs that are already written and recorded?"

i was mostly kidding but not completely

i think when they played them live in 91/92 and practiced etc, is where those two would have had the most impact on the finished product. no?

Ugh Jeff is there. Look at his Instagram. He can play bass I guess. Just keep him away from a guitar.

Jeff is gonna probably play most of the guitars. James will have one guest spot on one song. And then maybe he’ll come out and play Mayo live at one tour date.
