Ziggy Pop: Corgan covers Poison at X-Games party 2:00 pm // Tuesday, August 3, 2010 Corgan and Morrison on stage Billy Corgan performed two songs at the Los Angeles ESPN X-Games invitation-only party on Saturday night. Corgan took the stage alongside LA supergroup Camp Freddy, singing a cover of Poison’s “Every Rose Has Its Thorn,” as well as the Smashing Pumpkins’ tour staple “Bullet with Butterfly Wings.” Camp Freddy features Dave Navarro and Billy Morrison (The Cult) on guitar, Matt Sorum (Velvet Revolver, Guns ‘N’ Roses) on drums, Donovan Leitch (son of folk singer Donovan) on vocals, and Chris Chaney (Jane’s Addiction) on bass. The performance marked Camp Freddy’s sixth in a row at the annual event. âêðàòöå: Ëûñûé ñïåë Ïóëþ è êàâåð íà Poison “Every Rose Has Its Thorn" BILLY CORGAN Covers POISON's 'Thorn' With CAMP FREDDY - Aug. 2, 2010 CAMP FREDDY — the Los Angeles-based "jam" group featuring Dave Navarro (JANE'S ADDICTION, RED HOT CHILI PEPPERS), Billy Morrison (ex-THE CULT bassist, current CIRCUS DIABLO vocalist), Matt Sorum (VELVET REVOLVER, ex-GUNS N' ROSES), Donovan Leitch (son of legendary folk singer Donovan), and Chris Chaney (JANE'S ADDICTION, ALANIS MORRISETTE) — made its sixth annual appearance at the X-Games/ESPN party in downtown Los Angeles. This year, the show was held Saturday night (July 31) at Nokia and the band brought two superstar singers to close its set. GODSMACK frontman Sully Erna rocked LED ZEPPELIN, ALICE IN CHAINS and SEX PISTOLS songs, while Billy Corgan (THE SMASHING PUMPKINS) brought the house down with a version of POISON's "Every Rose Has Its Thorn". He also sang the PUMPKINS classic "Bullet With Butterfly Wings". The complete setlist was as follows: 01. Ballroom Blitz 02. In The Meantime 03. Surrender 04. Rebel Yell 05. Whole Lotta Love 06. Baba O'Reilly 07. Highway To Hell 08. Suffragette City 09. Bodies 10. Good Times Bad Times 11. Man In The Box 12. Every Rose Has Its Thorn 13. Bullet With Butterfly Wings 14. I Wanna Be Your Dog In a recent interview with Gibson.com, Navarro was asked if there will ever be a CAMP FREDDY album. "We talked about it for many, many years, but the logistics of something like that really doesn't translate to what we're about," he replied. "We're a live band and we're about the fun on stage and whoever's gonna get up with us — we don't know from night to night. And when you go into a studio to record songs that have already been recorded, it's difficult to recreate that kind of energy and spontaneity, so it's unlikely at this juncture." CAMP FREDDY in 2008 parted ways with Los Angeles' acclaimed Indie 103.1 radio station, which has aired the band's weekly show every Saturday for nearly five years. Since its formation seven years ago when they rocked the opening of The Standard Hotel in Downtown Los Angeles at the invitation of Brent Bolthouse, CAMP FREDDY has performed on both coasts of America and on national television shows ("The Tonight Show with Jay Leno", "Jimmy Kimmel Live!", "Late Late Show With Craig Kilborn", "Last Call with Carson Daly").

Andy: Early this morning, Billy Corgan hopped on UStream for an impromptu chat session. - It was just Billy and Kristin. - Billy joked about how he (and then Kristin) would take their tops off if they got to a hundred viewers (they didn’t) like those “sex cam videos”. Clearly BC knows what he’s talking about there. - A couple of times BC mentioned how he and Jeff had been discussing a new release method for TBK, but he wouldn’t say any more about it. - The next song will be released “soon”, but again no real indication how long that means. - After being asked for a clue about what the next song is, Billy said he couldn’t give a clue cos then everyone would know which song it was. - Plans for touring Aus/NZ, as well as the UK, and going back to Asia later in the year. - There will be no more soundcheck party shows with new songs. BC said it was great to get to try out the new material in front of a small crowd, but it was too hard on his voice. - The band plan to record again in October. - When asked about what he was listening to/last record he bought, etc. Billy got really uptight and didn’t want to answer. Saying things like “most people don’t listen to music the way I do, so they wouldn’t understand”. Some guy in the chat said “most great musicians have shit taste in music anyway” and BC got pissed off. - Someone else asked if Jeff and Nicole would be playing their parts in the studio, Billy dodged this question (I think it was this question – he didn’t actually read a question out before) by saying “people who have been fans a long time should know there’s certain questions I just can’t answer”. - The box sets/album re-issues are held up by EMI being pricks, apparently. Doesn’t seem likely any time soon. The album tours would coincide with these, if they ever happen. - BC talked again about how great the chemistry with this new band is, how much fun they’re having etc. He says it’s the first time he’s actually hung out with the band since Gish/SD era. Mike is so excited about everything everywhere they go. (He said he hung out with the band in the Zwan days, but that was “different”…) - The logistics of touring mean they didn’t break even on the tour they did in the States recently, and that’s why they can’t go to as many places as they used to in the MCIS days. - Continuing on that topic, BC mentioned how he’s thought about one day doing a solo acoustic tour, where he would play songs from all eras including Chicago Songs, Zwan, etc. as well as SP. But the problem with that would be getting a crowd to stay quiet enough for it – he cites the mainstream fans wanting to see the hits as a restriction on what he feels able to play. He also mentioned how hard it was just to get the record release crowd to be quiet, so why try at other bigger venues? - After the questions about who would be playing in the studio and what he was listening to, he got more annoyed and started saying he had to go – if anyone had any questions he could answer then they should ask them now. There wasn’t much more, but the same guy who asked about what he was listening to kept coming back with stupid comments, so BC eventually got pissed off and just said goodbye and ended the chat. http://blog.hipstersunited.com/2010/08/05/freak-videos-in-the-works-no-more-soundcheck-parties/
Ziggy Pop: Freak videos in the works, no more soundcheck parties Early this morning, Billy Corgan hopped on UStream for an impromptu chat session. I was only able to catch a few minutes of it before heading to work, but during that time Billy revealed that the band is working on two videos for Freak – at least one of which will be filmed by Kristin Burns – tentatively scheduled for release on or around September 1st. In other news from the chat, the band will not be holding any more soundcheck parties when they return to the US for their tour of the western states. Corgan was appreciative of the fans who lined up early and was able to get some good feedback about the songs, but the additional sets ended up being too hard on his voice. If you watched the rest of the chat, leave a comment about anything that I missed. Hopefully the recording will be available soon on the band’s Ustream channel. 1 ñåíòÿáðÿ âûõîäèò êëèï íà ïåñíþ Freak, ðåæèññ¸ð Êðèñòèí Á¸ðíñ

Ziggy Pop: Summer Sonic Tokyo review 10:57 am // Monday, August 9, 2010 Since I’m never awake/at home when the rest of the crew does their podcasts, I figured I’d post a review from way over in the land of the hot, humid, rising sun. Seriously- it barely goes below 30 at midnight lately (that’s 86 for you Fahrenheiters). Warning- it’s very rambly… After meeting up w/ a couple other fellow webmaster friends, catching the a-ha set, & eating, we headed over to the Mountain Stage, which was the biggest of the indoor stages. Richard Ashcroft had just started his last song (Bittersweet Symphony), so we wandered up to the front-most gated area to wait for the people who’d be leaving to leave. Only about half of them did, so we pushed up as far as we could along the right edge, directly in front of/under the right stacks. Once the lights went down, we gained another 10 feet or so as everyone pushed forward again, and I was quite glad we were on the edge, since the middle section got pretty hot & violent. Also, the fences they were using to section off the areas had a 1 or so base that stuck out a foot or two, so we gained a slight height advantage as well, which helped quite a bit, considering the height of the stage, the number of taller people around compared to most Japanese shows, and the percentage of the show everyone had their hands up. Le Set: 1.Astral Planes 2.Ava Adore 3.Hummer 4.As Rome Burns 5.A Song For A Son 6.Today 7.Bullet w/ Butterfly Wings (2 false starts) 8.Eye 9.United States 10.Love is the Sweetest Thing [Ray Noble] 11.Owata 12.1979 13.Stand Inside Your Love 14.Tarantula 15.Tonight, Tonight 16.Cherub Rock Hummer was a nice semi-rare treat- having checked, I’ve apparently actually heard it 3x already (at 3 of the 4 Fillmore shows I attended), but hey, who’s counting? :P” Before Today, he said “OK, we’re gonna play an old song now…” (cheers) “Oh, you like the old songs?” (cheers) “OK, I don’t wanna play the old songs, nevermind.” (confused semi-cheering) “You know this song, I think.” After that, he started to play the Bullet riff, but realized he’d forgotten to switch guitars, so it was 1/2-step sharp. After switching, he’s like “Oh yeah, there we go” & started again, but apparently everyone else still wasn’t ready, ’cause he stopped again, & then finally started over, with the rest of the band coming in after the first line. I LOL’d inside my head as I imagined Jason cringing at the 2 “(abandoned)”s in the spfc setlist- which, ha ha, I see have already been removed. Touche. Even though I’ve been rather lazy w/ keeping up with the new stuff (esp. the live-only songs- I hadn’t heard LitST[RN] :P” yet, and I still haven’t listened to the Backwards Clock songs >_<;), I managed to recognize most of the songs within the first second or two, with one major exception. As Rome Burns & Owata I semi-recognized from previous shows, although I wasn’t sure on the title right away. But Eye threw me for a loop completely. Even after reading/hearing here that “the new version of Eye freakin’ ROCKS!”, which obviously implies a change in arrangement, that first ~1:20ish sounded so familiar & yet not, that all I could do was write “SOUNDS LIKE THE CURE” on the other side of my notepad, which got frantic nods, until the main riff finally started. During the song, a couple guys made their way over to the side & jumped over the fence to leave… lamers. Oh, and despite the repeated signs on the screen saying no moshing, diving (crowd surfing), pushing, throwing bottles, etc., I noticed ALL of those activities plenty of times. Then again, so were taking pictures & recording *cough*, which were also mentioned on the Things Not To Do screen, but at least those don’t physically hurt anyone. :P” After US, the rest of the band went off while Billy got his ukulele on, and started strumming a few notes, eliciting cheers, and then finally getting different sections to cheer, to which he’d react according to the level of sound- apparently the left side was better. :P” The rest of the band watched, laughing & grinning, from the left side before coming back out for Owata & the rest of the set. After they headed off, the crowd continued to cheer for a good minute or so (although I didn’t hear the usual en-co-ru chant), then Billy came back out & thanked everyone, then said something about the next song being about the power of rock, before launching into Cherub Rock. I’m not sure if the extended-single-drumroll intro is a new stylistic/arrangement choice, but I’m kinda missing the extra bass kick. Oh well. After the show, I saw a crew member that looked rather familiar (except for a change in hair color from reddish-brown to grey), so after a bit of prodding from The Girl, I finally went up & asked “Didn’t you work on the 2000 tour?” Sure enough, it turned out to be the lighting guy from back then. Talked a bit about the band- he asked what we thought of it, & then said he thought it was the best they’ve been, since they “didn’t really have a decent rhythm guitarist or bassist before”, and that Jimmy had to over-compensate for it (which he said he’s told Jimmy himself, too)… so now that everyone there is a solid musician, the band’s a lot tighter… which I must say I have to agree with. While I never thought of James’ or D’Arcy’s playing as particularly bad (except for D’Arcy’s on the Arising! tour, just before she quit/left/was fired, but after she’d obviously already checked out mentally/motivationally), it’s pretty obvious Jeff’s a lot more skilled, technically, at least. Actually, I’m not sure if it was just from being over in front of the right stacks, but most of the time I could hear Jeff’s guitar over Billy’s. Or maybe it’s always been pretty high up, and I’m only noticing it now that I’ve started playing guitar again, & am watching their fingers more closely. But anyway. Although I didn’t notice it at the time, apparently a few people were yelling “What about James? What about D’Arcy?” To which I recite an old ams-p favorite: “Oh, go cry over your copies of Gish & Siamese Dream.” Seriously, it’s been 10 years, people. Get over it. Of course, this was at least partially made up for by the fact that you can clearly hear someone during the last banter break yelling “JACKBOOT!” lol. Oh, if only. Anyway. Two more Tokyo shows coming up! Dunno if I’ll be able to write as much about those, but LMA entries coming as soon as I figure out how to tag FLACs. :P”
Ziggy Pop: Smashing Pumpkins to rock Idaho, Utah, Java, land of java The Smashing Pumpkins have added three dates to their early September swing through the western United States. They’ll perform in coffee capital Seattle on the 10th, as well as potato place Boise on the 16th and, uhm, Salt Lake City the next day. Tickets for these three shows go on sale this weekend. The Pumpkins also committed to revisit the Eastern Hemisphere in October, signing on to the Java Rockin’land festival in Jakarta. This would be the band’s first visit to Indonesia. The festival runs October 8-10, with the Pumpkins playing on the 8th.
