they are has beens specifically BECAUSE bill tarnished the legacy by being a dick AT THE TIME
i mean RBG was what, not even born when SD came out? Or when bill burned all the bridges at Lolla or any of the whinding and bitching and moaning he does every time there's a mic in his face? to be frank, the 20 year anniversary tour was probably one of the biggest disasters for his reputation and legacy, you get all these fans come out to see this band that broke up and motherfucker bitches about he's not popular. you think people weren't paying attention to that? that they don't know anything about that? that it doesn't spread word of mouth? I have friends who collect SP vinyl who said "after that i never want to see them again" who are you talking about? Dickhead Q. Public? Did these people even give a shit about the band in the first place? if they didn't why would they now? How is that not part of the legacy? |

And then you have the other kind of bands who have been together for years and years who have consistently put on great live shows and have released enough music that their fans enjoyed to consistently sell out large venues: Rolling Stones, Aerosmith, Pearl Jam etc. The Pumpkins are the kind of band who had a bright moment back in the day with a couple of big albums who now have a desperate front man who's tried to do everything he could to capitalize off of their former glory. Fans of music have a pretty accurate bullshit meter and Corgans offended it at all levels lately. As the only original member, Corgans touring around as the "Smashing Pumpkins", trying to relive his glory days by playing arenas that are only 1/4 to 1/3 full (even with half priced tickets being hocked at "groupon.com"), putting out lackluster music with lackluster musicians all in the name of capitlizing off of his former glory. Lets face it, if that isn't tarnishing a legacy, I don't know what is. |

The Pumpkins actually have a lot in Common with the Pixies current situation.
Only the Pixies still put on great live shows that feature a musicianship that is at the level it was in their prime. And even though the Pixies new music is lackluster... It's still a fuck of a lot better than what Corgans crapped out since Jimmy left. |

Yeah man. It's the site that bands work with when they're concert tickets aren't selling. Nearly every (if not every) Pumpkins show on the Oceania tour had tickets available at half the price and sometimes even more on the site. Stone Temple Pilots used the site a lot too on their last tour before Weiland got the boot.

"Rebellion is apparently overrated, and the band’s iconic symbol has become so meaningless that it’s nothing more than a trendy t-shirt design. "

Man I'd pine for those 2008 days again. Sure there was turmoil and what not. But at least it was still interesting to follow. And Chamberlin and Billy still rocked it. Theres not really much of a reason to follow along nowadays.

it's not staged why would anyone stage that, there's no possible outcome where that turns out well
