Billy Singing Mountain Song

Insight_Scoop · 12-18-2018, 03:04 PM

Actually sounds cool. Seems like an instance of Billy singing the "old way" because he feels like it (at least Machina era). Legit scream at like 2:26.

Can we as a society agree to shoot Corgan with a tranquilizer dart the next time he appears on stage without a guitar or other two-hand prop to keep him occupied

He used to do some cool, quirky choreography when he wasn't playing guitar, but now he just lazily waves his arms around. Lazy theatrics to fit lazy songs.

Seeing people get older is fine, it's nature, but to witness someone's creative fire wither away before our eyes is a bit tougher. Of course it's very common, but not being so old myself, I'm really just noticing it now. People say Billy artistically deteriorated after the break up, but IMO it was post Fillmore residency, going in to TbK. It also happens to be when his weight started to yoyo, though that may not be related. In that interview someone posted, he even said he "died" during the San Fran residency... maybe he's not wrong, the problem is, after these rebirths, he loses fans and sells fewer records.

redbreegull · 12-18-2018, 04:25 PM

yeah you're right, there was no sign of his artistic degradation before 2007

MonumentsRocks · 12-18-2018, 04:27 PM

"no sign of" is not something I said. Maybe the wheat to chaff ratio got worse, but there was still a lot of wheat.

Corgan peaked in 1996.

Why doesn’t billy kick Jeff the fuck out and have Dave Navarro take his place? I’d be way into that line up.

MonumentsRocks · 12-19-2018, 12:32 AM

Dave "wah wah" Navarro... no

wHATcOLOR · 12-19-2018, 01:59 AM

i don't think i've ever seen worse "dance moves" than what old man bill is doing here

wHATcOLOR · 12-19-2018, 02:01 AM

Yeah, dude needs a guitar to keep him out of trouble. Even if he's really not playing it too intently... just hand him one/something.

WeilandFan · 12-19-2018, 03:05 AM

Billy needs to study some of the late great Scott Weiland's onstage moves.

Mals Marola · 12-19-2018, 04:02 AM

i had a feeling you were a Weiland fan

Elphenor · 12-19-2018, 04:23 AM

embarrassing

apathy · 12-20-2018, 08:07 PM

That actually went from bad to way worse, which I thought was impossible after the first 30 seconds.

On the bright side I will say that I'm happy to know that Billy would have been forced to listen to an amazing song in order to cover it.

In the spirit of the season let's believe that it will consciously or subconsciously influence his artistry in the new year!
