maybe when billy fired Nicole and Mike he canned his guitar tech as well. Probably the only way he could keep paying Jeff

Are you serious/stupid?
You do know billy owns a tea shop right? You do know tea isn't only a drink that koreans drink right? You do know the korean drink is soju right? |

Ok so It sounds like the first album is near done at 9 tracks. I'm surprised they didn't try to bang out a 10th track just to keep things at an even 10. Some of Corgans best songs came when albums were near completion or past completion (Ex. Drown, Cherub Rock, ect.). History says, they should definitely keep experimenting till the final days before they release anything IMO.

Ten is a thoroughly boring number to have of tracks on an album. Nine is where it's at.

APPETITE FOR CONSTRUCTION / SP ALBUM UPDATE
June 19, 2014 For starters, nothing blew up today. My day, abbreviated, as it was, stayed focused on the 10,000 permutations of how one might play DORIAN. 80’s? 60’s? 2022? How about never? And after much hemming and hawing with Herr Producer (and our 10,001th convo about ‘what kind of album is this?’) I settled on one guitar, one amp, one speaker, three microphones. The guitar: a Kimberly, or as it’s better known around here, the 1979/MAYONAISE/PISSANT axe. Got essentially a full take and left it at that. Rest of session was Shredder working on space-age BEING BEIGE elements (he’d report scant progress), and ANTI-HERO streetwalk-riff (‘killer tones bro’). More tomorrow, getting better all the time… YEP, IT BLOWED UP REAL GOOD / SP ALBUM UPDATE June 20, 2014 You know the old adage, ‘maybe it’s not someone else’s fault, but yours?’ Neither do I. But let me say that this amp-blowed-up-again problem of mine is starting to freak me out. My tally today? Try two. First one went like this: turn on amp, play 5 seconds, POOF! Second one went like this: turn on amp, play for 10 seconds, amp makes funny noise, drops to half power, then? You guessed it. So what did we get done today? Shredder Shredding ONE AND ALL (just before a visit from indie stalwart-superstars Ringo Deathstarr). And a whole lot of noising around MONUMENTS, which will now just have one lean mean guitar. I would have finished tonight but I went deaf from the fuzz (Vox Tone Bender II: and no, we don’t have an endorsement). TONE BENDERS / SP ALBUM UPDATE June 21, 2014 https://fbcdn-sphotos-d-a.akamaihd.n...01657116_n.jpg A glorious day; at least for the first 90 minutes in session. The above pictured pedal caressing a Sound City amp, it’s treble negated to zero. MONUMENTS it’s beneficent. What did I just say? Translation: I got MONUMENTS done quickly (a single take, thank you) by 1:30. Fast forward 6 hours, you’d see me, BC, sitting on a bench, chin on hand. Why? ‘Cause my amp blowed up a-gain (3rd time!) When even T Lee tells you to turn down then you know you got issues. So like a good scout boy I tried to match blowed-up amp sound with the Marshall Plexi, and came darn close. But I must admit I was defeated by the sound that just can’t be reigned in. So I await a 3rd (or is it a 4th) repair. This left Herr Howard saying, ‘fellas, what are we gonna do now?” Shredder: “My overdub on ANTI-HERO?” Howard, “Sure!” (think high voice). Night over, day defeated. Plenty to do tomorrow. |

Maybe it has more to do with the wiring in the studio than the actual amps

I love how "T. Lee" is now immediately elevated to Demi-God status in BC's mind and writing. I mean, prior to a few weeks ago - did we even know that BC and T. LEE were friends, or that he had such a reverence for his drumming?
Whole thing still is just so damn weird to me. |
