I guess it wont last, but it would be nice if that site was gone for good. Damn ugly design. |

Huh. I wonder if they actually deleted the forums because it was 'pointless' or whatever

the whole sp.com website is down. so it's not necessarily forum related.
getting rid of that forum would be good though. on the other hand, it'll probably mean that this place will get a new wave of lunatics. |

are there any fan-run message boards for bands that have existed longer than this place? surely there is a grateful dead one or something...

I do not know if it would be hard, but it would certainly require more effort than it'd be worth to please the one fan who gives a fuck (i.e. you). |

I used to run an ip.board like the o board and it's easy as fuck to update the skin.
Funny how a mod on this site though calls that site ugly when this is still a 90's monstrosity. |

How odd that Monte did not type a misspelled word about it, nor take any credit for it being back up. |

Who's Rynda and what does having this Rynda person and Kerry off board have to do with the theme of the message board. On another note, I think it's kind of funny. It stands as the last real shred of existence that Teargarden existed.

don't mind his attempts to be a tough guy, he's deluded himself into thinking that the hate we give him is common to all new folk.

@pave
Monte is the most predictable person ever. Also, I wrote this to Billy on twitter at the 13th at 9am "@billy sp.com is down. People are thinking it is a sign or should we blame monte IT?" http://gyazo.com/f6c7ca417eb141284b7e0a9ae38c309c For some reason when I use the image tags the image won't show up.

No... Monte gives a grand illusion of being so tightly knit to the band that people have started to believe he really is the fan rep. Then when he spouts his anti gay hate he isn't the fan rep according the band.
Moreover, unlike others Monte actually steps up to the plate and contacts Billy instead of waiting for Billy to come to them. Which I never understood. Also, sadly many fans won't cut out monte till he is banished by Billy. I have been told directly by fans that if monte is good enough for corgan then he is good enough for them. A lot of people think he is dumb but he isn't he is a lot smarter than people think and he is ruthless when it comes to keeping corgan in his life. |

You never answered my previous question. What do Kerry and this random Rynda have to do with the theme of the message board?

I guess they used to take care of it when they were in the entourage, and who ever has that role now has no idea about these details.

Damn Monte taking credit for everything. |

Just gotta say, I think monte is funny. If monte was a created character on some TV show I think he would be a hit. All the monte threads are the best threads, monte brings the funny. I appreciate monte in a weird way. I wonder if that's why Wolly likes him too. |

Why should Billy care if Monte has some bat shit crazy beliefs? The guy works day in and day out to freely promote the band, and he runs the most up to date fansite for all the nerds who actually give a fuck about that shit to read. So why not throw the guy a bone and give him some exclusives to keep the fans up to date and engaged? Frankly, I actually think its pretty cool that Billy does that... And it's not unusual. A lot of bands will throw the odd bone or 2, concert tickets, exclusives, giveaways to their most popular fansites. I know even Green Day does with GDA.com. In this day and age you have to reach out with a more grass roots approach cause the record companies aint doing shit with promoting anything... And crazy fanatics like you are just jealous that Monte took the initiative and time to actually do this first. ( I know theres been several other fan sites, but Billy was always choked at em... So Monte obviously took the initiative and approached Corgan about his idea for his site... Billy was on board and Monte made it happen.) Last edited by fuzzyroes : 09-16-2013 at 10:51 PM. |
