it's frightening how willing i am to believe this
shittiest part of this whole thing was throwing the drums down the stairs. I wonder if Corgan said to do that, or what Last edited by Ram27 : 12-06-2015 at 06:05 PM. |

I am curious to see if he'll mention this publicly, or just let it slide. The last time an opening band criticized the way they were treated, Corgan threw a shit-fit on Twitter/Facebook.

I've always considered 1994 to be the height.

He's correct that Deerhunter sucks, but if you don't have something nice to say...

looks like Billy forgot some of his Rudyard Kipling along the way. If you can talk with crowds and keep your virtue, Or walk with kings - nor lose the common touch
Nothing common about doing a Faye Dunaway "NO WIRE HANGERS" bit over a bottle of water. If he feels no shame about this coming out now in this way, he may never get the common touch back. |

Isn't the next scene after Jeff throws his guitar Billy nursing his water bottle backstage. Must have been the Zeitgeist...

In short, Bill is threatening to sue people into oblivion again. It's his modus operandi.

"Several eyewitnesses can attest that Cox's account is a complete fabrication, probably to get some much needed attention. He is correct about one thing, that the whole thing is on tape, and that we have a video of the encounter."
>>> If the singer had balls, he would have replied "Well, release the fucking tape and let's see who's lying." |

I love the difference in tone between the two statements
The Deerhunter guy wrote a very respectful four paragraph thing, retracting his statements and apologizing, and Billy just said 'fuck you, you're irrelevant, we're gonna sue you'. Which is actually exactly what he said in 2007 as per Mr. Cox |

I have no doubt that the original story is legit. Billy is a total piece of shit, and even more so when you consider that this happened in 2007 when he was touring to release the total turd of an album Zeitgeist.

I wouldn't be surprised if billy includes a cause in the touring contract against defaming the tour/band/billy.
Cox is probably right, that it was intended as stage banter, not to be published as a pitchfork news story, but the idiot forgot that we're in 2015, everything is news and everything is recorded... |

Billy was not THAT close to Weiland. I'm sure the extent of his "difficult time" at the loss of an "friend" (acquaintance really) was probably being like "aww shit that sucks". After which he thought how can I use this to make myself look good and gracious. I mean he said himself he would not pretend to know him more than he did which suggests..ya we interacted a handful of times, years ago. Also voice of a generation...with two other dead guys. Yeah thats it billy, just praise people once they're dead and they're not a competition anymore. Even when billy is not being a shit he comes off as a shit.
Cox is likely being a pussy but I'm sure Corgan has very good lawyers. If it is on tape and isn't making Corgan look bad then why wouldn't you release it? "Complete fabrication" seems pushing it a lot. I mean if you have an altercation on tape, right there that means the whole thing is NOT a COMPLETE fabrication. Maybe cox exaggerated some events but i doubt that at no point in this whole incident did Billy come across as a dick. Adn no, as far as we know, there is not many sides to corgan's character. Just one. The one where he's a dick. That's what this line implies though "i'm sure billy corgan isn't ALWAYS a complete dickhead....right?" |

This is all so clearly true! Gio as the security guard, the BC Voss water obsession of the time. I wonder how many other things like this have happened

He could release the tapes but how will we know they're not (Matt Walker) reimagined for 2015?
CGI and shit. Plus, what will the dynamic range be?? |
