It means exactly what I said.
Meg Toohey is on the executive board for the Rock & Roll Camp for Girls. What do you think was motivating Nicole's obnoxious overplaying? Taste? You don't stand out as a role model for young girls in rock & roll by playing root notes. Last edited by Funbags : 01-26-2018 at 10:58 PM. |

Saw them play with Ginger in 2007 and they were on fire. That tour was so much better than ZG itself. Billy was on great form.
So Ginger gets my vote. |

...remember when Nicole brought Meghan Toohey along to Sedona? Billy must have been thrilled.
Nicole: We went there to write the record that I was on with them...Oceania...we went to Sedona, Arizona to write, so Meg came along with me. Interviewer: That band (SP) writes together??? Nicole: Ehhhhhhh....well, that's tricky. Interviewer: You don't have to talk about it. Nicole: [laughing]...that was tricky...we tried!...we definitely tried. Meghan Toohey: It didn't quite work out for them but for me it was like a carthardic experience. |

Have you watched her play Oceania songs live? Quasar's verse is a straight-forward groove, and Nicole's hand is jumping up and down the neck playing who knows what. It's like the band is playing for one audience and Nicole is playing for another when it comes to Oceania. The only time she played bass with any taste was when she was playing the old songs. She Yoko'd herself with that one. |

*Obviously there's nothing with being a role model for girls on stage. I'm saying she could have done that by playing for the song.

I get the feeling that Billy only hired Nicole cause he could get her for dirt cheap.
I was watching this documentary about these hired-hand musicians and a lot of these nobodies that tour in notable bands are getting paid like dogshit. They had a few guys that played in Filter and they said their pay was laughable and that when they'd tour with opening bands they were always making much less than them. And then they had the Filter singer on screen talking about how it's experience and "why do they need all this money, there's a bus to sleep on, you don't need accommodations. If they wanna make money they can do what Trent told me and make their own band" And it's quite obvious that Corgan is a pretty similar penny-pincher, so it's probably why he wastes his time with kids like Byrne and that Bates guy and these other nobodies who are happy just to be there. |

When the Filter lead singer was in Nine Inch Nails he said he was getting paid 400 dollars a week and when the tour was over Trent was a huge rock-star living it up and the Filter guy had to move back home with his mom. The NIN manager then called him and said that he had a friend that could hook him up with a pizza delivery job while the band wasn't touring
That shits just brutal. |

I mean can you imagine? Playing festivals in front of 50-100 000 people and you're only netting 400 dollars a week.

...and remember when Byrne was much more excited to play in Bearcubbin with his buddies? Billy was not amused. He actually told him to cancel their little tour because he needed him to record some demos for SP. Plot twist: Bearcubbin cancelled the tour but Billy didn't actually need Byrne to record demos. LOL. |

I'm with Trent on this one. "don't like the deal?, go start your own band."
being in a famous band with shit pay is still crazy exposure. take advantage of that. The dude from filter is one of the FEW that managed to make it on his own... exception to the rule. Billy's always only going to want to get no-bodies that'll work their ass off for the recognition while he cashes the big $$$. I wouldn't be surprised if he offered james and d'arcy pennies as well. Difference for the original members is that reunion tours would boost album sales and they'd get a pay day on that too. |

why can't I comment on BC's insta? I really need to tell him something important.
if anyone in his entourage is reading this now, can you pass on this important message: "Billy Corgan, you are very precious and delicate, but please go eat a bag of dicks." |

Billy Corgan: “I’m gravely ill”
Fans: “OMG what’s wrong with Billy Corgan. I hope he’s ok.” Billy Corgan: “LOL people perceived my words as signifying meaning, it’s crazy how they misinterpret social media. The sheeple can’t distinguish their own reality!” Fans. “...” |

I'm sure BILLY was pissed off of MELISSA's love affair with DAVE GROHL starting at her time with the SMASHING PUMPKINS.
And that she had more sympathies for JAMES than him, collaborating with JAMES even after the split of the band. She had also nearly played with JAMES together in a band supporting RYAN ADAMS. http://img7.bdbphotos.com/images/hug...1.jpg?skj2io4l http://img1.bdbphotos.com/images/ori...f.jpg?djet1p5k http://img2.bdbphotos.com/images/ori...8.jpg?skj2io4l Last edited by Corgan's Bluff : 01-27-2018 at 08:57 PM. |
