Talking Long MADM interview on life, Hole and the Pumpkins



I'm not sure if this has been shared before, but lots of new info and insights into Melissa's time with both bands. Leaving Hole and joining SP chat starts at about 55 minutes.

Thanks for posting this.

she has 30,000 photographs from her time with Hole and SP. Wow. I can't imagine what is in that stash of photos.

I've always loved MADM. She's a great player, and had good stage presence. I think that she was a great fit, and I can't who they would have had in that role.

Billy calling out mistakes. LOL. Working for him must be a nightmare.

Melissa seems so genuinely cool and unjaded given what eras and bands she was involved in

i'm genuinely amazed by a person like that, also her story about that Cure festival is pretty bizarre, I woulda been maybe just old enough to catch one of those appearances if I myself, legal name Joey Goldberg had known

she's talking about end to end. Which is soundcheck through encore. That's a long day when you add travel, make-up, dress, etc.

her solo music is great. She's a great singer too.

she is embellishing a little. if they're playing five hrs a day for a year I doubt there was only one time she missed a note. That's just kinda silly honestly. I get Billy wants the band to sound tight but I would imagine people are making mistakes all the time.
