Maybe Corgan doesn't do it quite as intentionally as Dylan did it, but he knows exactly what the fuck he's doing.

And what is that, exactly?

To me, what he's doing, is asking/promising his fans one thing ("believe in me, i love all of you, we're making beautiful music, fruity fruity love love foo foo awwwwwwwwwwww") and delivering the polar opposite (ZWAN!, TFE!, BLINKING WITH FISTS!, LE DOUCHE MACHINA!).

I'm moreso talking about things like the Metro DVD and Chicago Songs.

And not just those things. Those are big, but the way that he dicks around is awful. The whole Machines of God bullshit, and this new "reunion" bullshit that he's pulled. I suppose that's a worse offense, but even so, he knows what he's doing.

I'll believe it when I see it. And I say that as somebody who has invested an insane amount of money, time and attention into Corgan for over a decade. I do hope he does something that really does justify my loyalty but I'm getting a bit impatient.

corgan is far from being the "fuck you" artist that dylan was, and you'll know it if you pay the slightest attention to his press. he just cares too much.

he kinda pretends he's a "fuck you" but then complains way too much about the fans not understanding and so on.

the only current artist i can think of that's in dylan's level of "fuck you" is jean leclerc (aka jean leloup). it's far less observable because he doesn't have an international career, but everyone here in québec can tell you about it. anyway, when i compare corgan to leclerc he just can't measure up.

let's list some other artists in this vein that we can think ok... could be fun.
