I don't understand why they wouldn't just do what Corgan already did on his solo tours, where he simply played songs of all outlets, including Zwan, which was quite lovely.
Tour as SP like they will do either way, play like 3 Zwan songs, done.

Maybe that's it, but I remember the quote as 'band members performing sex acts in public' so I'be thought it was Paz giving Pajo a jack handy or something. Could be wrong.

Billy putting his hand on Paz Lenchantin, in not one, but two pictures, disturbs me. You didn't see the 10,000 maniacs putting their paws all over Natalie Merchant. If Paz wanted to allege work place harassment, she'd have exhibits A and B lined up.

Where did he put his hand? If it wasn't on her tits or ass I'd be disappointed.

Jesus, I

That was no surprise though; I was treated so poorly by this idiot who used to be the guitarist from Pollution Unknown and that is why Zwan is probably #1 on my all time worst experiences list. this song was originally written by Henry Francis Lyte roughly around the time that William Lamb succeeded Earl Grey as Prime Minister of the UK and became.. well, you catch my drift. this still sounds powerful to my jaded ears, I mean we meant it back then, but that was long ago. but that was long a go-go, so now hear is the view, I cast about, I'm leaving no room for you to get out, so we only ended up recording 3 songs that day (Endless Summer and Desire too) because it was so uptight, but I'm glad we did tolerate that Solution Unboned that day even though I don't think we would now. I still like Paz but never trust a girl who ends up with well i can't say. No, fuck that it's Pajo. Piece of shit. i am very proud of all these songs because they have persevered time and space and albums and most of all subjective opinion but I'm glad the album didn't sell cuz then I woulda been stuck with these assholes forever.

Basically Billy was in love with Paz and she banged Pajo and Sweeney and he lost his shit and blew up the band.

Looked indeed weird, especially with the smugly surprised gesture of Paz...

The level of effort going into looking like theyr're all happy in the Honestly and Lyric videos is so incredibly cringey.

The interview statements of each band member looked agonized.

Paz decided only to speak in Spanish, maybe to make it easier for her...

I mostly remember just really wanting Billy's Ganesha sweater

If that came with the supermegadeluxe championship edition Zwan reissue I would pay up in a heartbeat

It's a little more intimate, to put hands on the belly, like Billy does here again on the one of Paz, than on the shoulders...

Happier Birthday, Björn:

Maybe if Billy wasn't so insistent on injecting his early 00s brand of Christian Rock into 90% of shit they actually recorded. Band itself had huuuge potential

Sweeney seems like a chill dude, the 'guitar moves' interviews on youtube are amazing. Pajo has been through some stuff. Paz is now in the Pixies.

Passing ships.

I think it was just to indicate they were all friends

PS Can someone with Instagram ask Sweeney if he's involved or even knows about Billy's plans to tour Zwan?

Wow, never thought I'd see the day when a Zwan reunion would be touted.

I revisited Zwan recently and man, there's some SHITTY songs on that album. This sounds like something a group of 15 year olds at a Christian band-camp would pen
