You hurt me Billy, in my heart.

Aha! A Willy. You're argumentative.

"You hurt me deeply," Corgan says, touching the Cricket Australia logo on his chest and pouting, "you hurt me deeply in my heart."

Huh, he's about the same height as me. I'd always assumed he was a titch.

ten months pass...

No recordings or setlists from the Australia leg of the Siamese Dream tour have ever surfaced before now. This is the infamous show where, on his way to the stage, Billy walked past Kim Thayil and told him he hurt him deeply in his heart. Check out the Superman longsleeve. Pumpkins start at 32:50. Breeders right before.

This is the infamous show
Are you basing this just on Billy's shirt? Youtube description says this is Auckland - Billy probably wore that shirt on each stop of the festival.

Vernon Locke, Wednesday, 16 March 2016 11:47 (eight years ago) link

Rats! I misread the article before posting, thought it said it was a week later, not a day later. That would make the infamous show 1/23/94 in Melbourne. A setlist is extant, and opening with Geek U.S.A. fits the "scrim of anger" description by the author.

This has been Corrections and Confessions with Flappy bird. have a good one :^)

flappy bird, Wednesday, 16 March 2016 16:30 (eight years ago) link

The way I read the article, the show was at the Gold Coast. Kim, Billy etc. flew up and had their initial interaction the day before the show. Of course, Jonathan Gold could've moved events around for comedic effect...

Vernon Locke, Thursday, 17 March 2016 02:48 (eight years ago) link

The whole exchange happened at the first show on the Gold Coast, but the "hurt me deeply in my heart" happened the next day in Melbourne.

On today's show: Smashing Pumpkin's Billy Corgan will demolish social justice warrior brainwashing in studio.

the last time he was on he said "I think it's very astute of you to call it an Infowar."

That's what exposes them every time and you guys are doing a great job of exposing that but most people–most people–who are not down there at the rally and spinning their Twizzler and making up stories about ghosts that don't exist–and it's a lot of fantasy stuff going on there. I mean, it literally could be a wizard world convention.

glad billy pumpkin is here to warn us of the dangers posed by fantasy stuff, nerds assembling in groups, and making up stories about ghosts that don't exist

never ending bath infusion (Doctor Casino), Wednesday, 20 April 2016 06:03 (eight years ago) link

Billy is essentially a massive fantasist, isn't he? All that stuff he was guffing a few years back, about how he and Kurt were the two scribes of their generation, and no one else could touch them... Crazy. I mean, I like the first two Smashing Pumpkins albums, but I find it hard to get past that contemporaneous review that they sound like Roxette produced by Alan Moulder.

ghosts that don't exist

And again–you haven't said this here so it's not again–the lack of tolerance of ideas and other points of view is the great Achilles heel of the social justice warrior movement.

so champion of free speech billy corgan isn't down with tolerating people talking about injustice huh

from the new interview: "Like I've said before, I think it was very prescient of you to call it an Infowar."

flappy bird, Wednesday, 20 April 2016 20:26 (eight years ago) link

I came in the door I said it before

lot of facepalming and easy jokes here, not a whole lot of arguing with what he, you know, actually said

Wimmels, Wednesday, 20 April 2016 22:46 (eight years ago) link

i thought it was a great interview. i thought he had a lot of interesting and insightful things to say. i take issue with his use of "social justice warrior," incredibly stupid phrase, but other than that, it was surprisingly good, much better than his previous two appearances on Infowars. I watched the interview live, and I didn't expect it to make any headlines. But of course, Pitchfork and Stereogum completely misrepresented what he said in their headlines and write ups. Sort of makes you lean toward Corgan and Jones' media complicity theory.

flappy bird, Wednesday, 20 April 2016 22:49 (eight years ago) link

does it now

balls, Wednesday, 20 April 2016 22:49 (eight years ago) link

As someone who has actually tried arguing with people on the internet who believe there is a worldwide conspiracy of "SJWs", can I be the first to offer my disinterest in continuing it here?

Camaraderie at Arms Length, Wednesday, 20 April 2016 22:54 (eight years ago) link

idk, if you let go your preconceived notions and really think for yourself, it is very suspicious how no one itt has engaged with the substance of someone decrying a "SJW" conspiracy by comparing campus activists to mao, hitler, and jim crow justice, on an internet talk show hosted by chris farley as bennett brauer.
