a lil bit of Bully, a lil bit of Swifty, a whole lot of Fuzzy & RBG: the sandbox - Page 11

Shit, that's pretty cool. KROQ is a big taste maker. Maybe it's just a slow-burner that takes a little while to gain speed.

I haven't heard Solara or Silvery aired on any of the Vancouver based stations yet and I listen to quite a bit of radio.

Don't be surprised if the station's radio jockeys end up unexpectedly losing their lives in tragic skiing accidents.

The New World Order doesn't take kindly to media outlets defying their edict against the publicising of those who would stand against them.

The Live Nation tour seemed to correlate with a COMPLETE different Billy in the media. I'm thinking he may have came forward and said something like "look, I'll stop talking politics and going on controversial programs if I can just have another chance in the industry... I'll even do the greatest hits and get Iha back"... Either that or Live Nation said "Look, we'll work with you but you gotta sign a contract stipulating that you won't say a word about your beliefs"

I respect those who think I'm out to lunch and those who agree with me all the same. But if you disagree, what would you chalk up his recent 180 in the media to be about?

I think it went down like this:

At the center of Portland, Oregon stands the Liberalist Necropolis, a huge palace made from the bones of god-fearing republicans cemented together with aborted fetuses. Inside, George Soros - the secret God-Emperor of the United States - sits on his throne flanked by his personal body guards Killary and Barack Hussein Osama.

“we’ve found one Lord Soros!”, a pierced, tattooed vegan member of the God-Emperors personal honor guard drags in a spitting and ranting Billy Corgan.

“there WILL be a vaguely-defined mass awaking! the left is the new right! I saw a shapeshifter!”

“SILENCE!”, orders God-Emperor Soros. “Who is this that you have brought before me?”

“It’s Billy Corgan sire.. you know Smashing Pumpkins.?”

“Ah.. yes I remember your song Rat In A Cage, you’re a long way from fame now Mr Corgan but I can change all that”

Corgan, having heard the magic word - FAME, immediately stops spitting and ranting. “You can make me famous again?” he asks.

“Of course. But you will work for me. No more talk of the left being the new right, no more Alex Jones. My Liberalist agents are already making the necessary arrangements. Jimmy Chamberlin and James Iha are back in the band. D’arcy refused to cooperate so has been discredited and ruined. A team of the worlds greatest scientists and engineers will work to ensure that Jeff Schroder doesn’t sound like shit. Rick Rubin will produce your new album. You will do a greatest hits tour. Do as I say and you may even have a number one album” the God Emperor smiled.

“Never!” cried Corgan, “I wont do a greatest hits tour! You’re living in the past! Monuments is the best album I’ve ever done! My friend Linda said so”

“Did I not mention that it’s an arena tour? A broadway-level show, timed to the minute. Your face on huge screens. A statue of you dressed as a pope. Mark McGrath. Everything you’ve ever dreamed of… You accept my offer or it’s the county fair for you”

I'm gonna watch that later solely for the fact that she's playing a Fender Jaguar

Funbags · 10-03-2018, 07:25 AM

Dang her voice is amazing!

Taylor Swift > Billy Corgan

And welcome to the Ignore List again FoolofaTook. Fuck off with the intentionally huge Boris pics.

Seriously, take a look in the mirror and ask yourself why you're so desperate for attention that you'd sabotage people's discussions on an ancient forum in some forgotten corner of the web.

I hope this fleeting moment of negative attention was worth it, because I'm never going to see another one of your posts again.

Corgan will NEVER get radio play again

But why the fuck does he care

NIN doesn’t either, but I’m pretty sure he’d rather be Trent Reznor rather than what’s left over of STP. That’s why when you go to an NIN show it is people of all ages, because TR stays relevant. SP is too busy trying to make that pop song and it all sucks so the only people who still care are 90s leftovers

you're not calling this thread a worthwhile discussion, are you

Funbags · 10-03-2018, 09:52 AM

We're talking about Taylor Swift here!
