So, work: SOLARA was the hammer, and I was the sickle. And leaping into the deep waters of what is a no-brainer, gimme of a grunge song we cast off it's shell and went for the sun-worshipper who, in standing beneath the sun, feels awe, or boredom, or both; his thirst for travel unbound, he'd like to see the stars or, better yet, know them. Not sure if I'll get what I'm looking for here, or just have to write a new one, but the riff's minor to major universal magnetism is worth mining out.

Quote:
Now what?” I said out loud. Back through the COUGARS we fell. I circled round ‘SOLARA.’ “Too grunge though,” I offered, a negative buzzword in these parts. “Better if it was straight, or more psych.” Singing the melody I came up with an opening figure reminiscent of ‘Heaven and Hell’ Sabbath (Go Tony). Sketched out a basic 2-part guitar demo, and with some digi-magik made the beat that made it a rocka-rolla (Go Priest). Funny what a riff can do to a spine. So ‘SOLARA’ is back with the STARS.
Quote:
Started session with a new theme (think Russian art film/Tarkovsky). A short demo, ornate and all, led to a heavier version (think late 70’s British metal). No go. Broke riffs over and over till the right one popped (think sick party anthem for a dying world). I’m guessing this shoves ‘SOLARA out of the way. New tune: ‘AELITA.’

Back to ‘SOLARA,’ to try to up its game. Lots ‘o mincing about; improved originality, but less exciting than yesterdays effort. Ran through different drum profiles. Fail. Broke riff apart. Fail. Tried a new riff, found some improvement. So that’s where we left it
More about Solara

Could it have to do with D'arcy, the missing "original" member, that they only mention the other three, not Jeff?
And they may not mention the words "reunion" and "30th anniversary" to avoid discussions about missing members.
Like in the "reunion"-articles in "Rolling Stone", "Forbes",...:

"Amazing" how Billy avoids D'arcy now in the Pumpkins history:
""Some 30 years ago, as The Smashing Pumpkins, James Iha and I began a musical journey in the cramped rear bedroom of my Father's house. And so it's magic to me that we're able to coalesce once more around the incredible Jimmy Chamberlin, to celebrate those songs we've made together."

I also noticed that.

Billy will probably never forgive D'Arcy.

This is Billy's usual act of rewriting history when he is not on good terms with someone. Amazing how now James is a part of that musical history when Billy made sure to use the album reissues to negate James having any substantial part of it. This is how you know what Billy says is full of shit and truth is James, D'arcy, and Jimmy all had a part in it.

For all of Bill's doofy moments as of late, not billing this as a reunion tour in print is a good decision. I was worried this would be called the "30th Anniversary Reunion" tour.

Amazing how it was now worth for Corgan to visit his dad not only for reconnection, but to let him promote immediately at it the story of THE KIDS that began their career in his house...

And the same people complaining she not being mentioned now would be saying he's used her name to sell the tour.

Anyone else read the name of the tour and imagine it being said in an obnoxious stereotypical feminine gay guy voice?

He can't use her to sell the tour anymore -even in a Steven Adler mode- because she came out to tell she would not be involved.

I'm not, it's just a very silly name for a tour and whenever I read it I imagine it being said by Richard Simmons or Ross Mathews or something. The Shiny And Oh So Bright Tour!

I suppose it's meant to be funny, but it's not even clever or witty or anything
