Ziggy Pop: а, вспомнил, ага, было такое в мае вроде

Ziggy Pop: хорошее интервью "Somebody like me is still supposed to represent some value that doesn't mean anything anymore. Personally, I wish those values could mean something. I wish there was a reason to uphold those values across the board culturally, because I thought those were good values to have. I think the values that great artists like Kurt Cobain and Neil Young and Johnny Cash all represented, those were important. "I took a lot of inspiration from those artists, and many others, who had great ethics and great concepts of ethics; those are all gone now. Basically, people talk about the ethics, but they don't mean anything anymore. I still hear that and feel that, but it doesn't have anything to do with the survival and the future of The Smashing Pumpkins, which is ultimately what I have to be concerned about. "So I'm happy to be in a place where I sort of just stuck my flag in the sand and said, 'OK, this is what I'm going to do for the next three or four years - like it, don't like it, it's cool. And because I've placed the core of my energy back on music, and not on all the other stuff I used to worry about, including having a dysfunctional band…or two…I feel like that's put me back at the center of my ethics - not somebody's opinion of what it should be like.

Ziggy Pop: Pumpkins’ pre-show sets for “first 20 or so people in line” June 23, 2010 So says Billy Corgan, in a pair of tweets this evening: Here is some SP news…first 20 or so people in line at each up-coming shows get to come in for the souncheck pre-show set. All new songs! New songs meaning songs recently written with the band + not yet recorded. With maybe an oldie for fun.We’ll play probably for a half hour. Corgan also noted that he will be continuing his advocacy for the band Rush on Friday when its members receive a star in the Walk of Fame on Hollywood Boulevard. UPDATE: In additional tweets, Corgan says that longtime Chicago glam rockers Kill Hannah will tour in support of the Smashing Pumpkins along with Bad City, and that the next Teargarden by Kaleidyscope song “will definitely be out for the tour.” http://twitter.com/Billy/status/16882178795 http://twitter.com/Billy/status/16882313760

Ziggy Pop: “A Note from Billy” on original band, recent band, latest band 10:28 pm // Thursday, June 24, 2010 Billy Corgan has posted a letter to fans in advance of the Smashing Pumpkins’ upcoming tour. Corgan speaks both about the long-ago and recent history of his band, and he praises tour-supporting acts Kill Hannah and Bad City. The letter is light on news, though Corgan does announce that the next Teargarden by Kaleidyscope song will be released on July 6, coinciding with the first scheduled date of the tour. http://www.smashingpumpkins.com/anotefrombilly.php http://www.spfc.org/tours/info.html the next Teargarden by Kaleidyscope song will be released on July 6th новая песня будет 6 июля

Ziggy Pop: “A Note from Billy” on original band, recent band, latest band письмо всё так же несёт в себе заряд собственной правоты и уверенности в том, что Корган делает на данном этапе своей жизни. Впрочем, это можно отнести к любым из его интервью за последние несколько лет, особенно за последний прошедший год. посмотрим, что там за новая песня выйдет.

Ziggy Pop: June 30 Smashing Pumpkins concert in L.A. announced, sells out As the venue had hinted over the past few days via Twitter, the Smashing Pumpkins will give a concert at the small Viper Room in West Hollywood this coming Wednesday. Tickets for the event went on sale this morning with no advance announcement, and they are sold out. This is now set to be the first date on the Pumpkins’ incipient U.S. tour.

Ziggy Pop: Smashing Pumpkins hope fans, radio will “Freak” for next single The song “Freak” will ship digitally to Modern and Active Rock radio on July 6 courtesy of Martha Music/CO5 Music, and the official impact date will be July 20. “Freak” will be the fifth song released for the Pumpkins’ Teargarden by Kaleidyscope album, and the first since the band’s release of the first physical EP from that project. Like the four previous Teargarden tracks, “Freak” was performed by the Billy Corgan-led band Spirits in the Sky during live performances in California last summer. The song received particular notice by being the only Corgan original played at the first Spirits performance, a short set during a multi-act memorial concert for deceased Seeds frontman Sky Saxon.

Ziggy Pop: “Now it’s time to start living this album in public.” Billy Corgan has given a phone interview to John Soeder of the Cleveland Plain Dealer in advance of next week’s sold-out Smashing Pumpkins concert at that city’s House of Blues. An excerpt: [John Soeder:] Why are you taking the new lineup on tour at this point? [Billy Corgan:] I really want us just to play and come together as a band. Up to this point, the songs were written more in a test tube. They weren’t really written in a band construct. With the new songs I’m writing now, I’m back to writing how I used to write, where I’m writing with the band. I bring in songs every day and we’re rehearsing them and people say “I like that” or “What do you think about that?” or “Can we change that?” Basically, the band becomes the feedback machine, and their playing and their excitement have everything to do with the way the music turns out. Right away, this unit is giving me that same feeling that I used to get with the original band. I get that really immediate excitement for the material, and it seems to elevate the material. I’m really excited for the fans to see this lineup of the band. I think this is a very credible lineup, as far as an organic band. It’s not just like we put some people together to play the songs. I really believe this is going to be a band here. [John Soeder:] Everyone is looking for the new music-industry paradigm. Do you feel good about your approach? [Billy Corgan:] I do. When we were younger . . . you would release your record, you would be on MTV or whatever and then after some point people would just want you to go away. Like, "I need a break from you guys." Those days are over. You need to be virtually present. There's so much going on that you can't afford to go away for two years This approach is more consistent with what artists are into. They just want to play, and they want to be involved. Also, time has become level. I meet 15-year-olds and I'm like, "What are you listening to?" They're like, "Led Zeppelin, the Cure, the Killers." They're not thinking, "They're from the past." They're all from the past, and they're all from the future. полный текст телефонного интервью здесь: http://www.cleveland.com/popmusic/index.ssf/2010/06/billy_corgan_ready_to_unveil_n.html

Ziggy Pop: New-look Smashing Pumpkins start world tour at Los Angeles club Sometime after 8pm PT tonight, Billy Corgan will take the mic in front of 250 onlookers at the Viper Room on Sunset Strip to warm up for/kick off the first Smashing Pumpkins tour since 2008. He’ll be backed by the brand-new rhythm section of bassist Nicole Fiorentino and drummer Mike Byrne, with guitarist Jeff Schroeder — a veteran by now of 160-some Pumpkins gigs since the band’s revival — still standing at stage left. This post will be updated with the most significant items that turn up over the course of the night. None of the HU bloggers are on scene, but we’re monitoring the Internets for news and have been assembling a list of Twitter users who will be attending the concert. There will not be a soundcheck performance for invited fans tonight, nor will tour-supporting bands Kill Hannah and Bad City appear. According to the Viper Room site, preshow entertainment will be provided by Los Angeles bartender/bass player DJ Jamie Scrap. http://221events.com/viperroom/

Ziggy Pop: Фрик помню смутно, надо переслушать концертник

Ziggy Pop: группа отыграла первый концерт своего стартующего мирового турне 30.06.2010 - Viper Room; West Hollywood, CA, US Set: •Astral Planes •Ava Adore •Hummer •As Rome Burns •A Song for a Son •Bleeding the Orchid •Stand Inside Your Love •Bullet with Butterfly Wings •Widow Wake My Mind •Perfect •Owata •Cherub Rock •That's the Way (My Love Is) •United States •Love Is the Sweetest Thing [Ray Noble] (abandoned) Smashing Pumpkins Debut New Lineup at the Viper by Steve Baltin The latest incarnation of the Smashing Pumpkins, which now features Billy Corgan joined by returning guitarist Jeff Schroeder and new bassist Nicole Fiorentino and 20-year-old drummer Mike Byrne, are hitting the road next week, starting in Cleveland. But the group got a little warm-up show in at Hollywood's very intimate, very packed and very sweaty Viper Room on Wednesday night. Opening with the new 'Astral Planes,' the Pumpkins's new lineup showed it may be the best since the original version in the '90s made the band icons of the alternative scene. The musical interaction between the four was excellent, breathing new energy into songs like 'Ava Adore,' 'Bullet With Butterfly Wings' and a ferocious 'United States,' as well as a crunching 'Cherub Rock' that had the Viper Room insane. But just as importantly, Corgan seemed to be having a great time with his new band, proving downright amiable at times. That adjective isn't always associated with the Pumpkins frontman, but on this night, in front of 200 or so adoring fans, he was completely at ease, smiling often and thanking the crowd sporadically. Even when dealing with an L.A. crowd that wouldn't shut up, he joked about it, describing a mid-set song as "one we played here at this venue for the first time. It's about an L.A. crowd that won't stop talking." That talking brought the encore to an abrupt halt. Holding a ukulele, Corgan started playing 'Love Is the Sweetest Thing,' only to have it cut short by hecklers yelling "'Tiptoe Through the Tulips'" and a war of words between fans telling the loudmouthed patrons to shut up' After waiting a moment for it to die down, Corgan finally gave up, declaring, "I love you all, but I'm too old for this s---." Even then though, he maintained his smile and seemed genuinely unfazed by the unfortunate ending. And that comfort is for good reason -- he's clearly enjoying his killer new band, which is good news for Pumpkins fans everywhere. Smashing Pumpkins Triumph Over Hecklers in Debut By Kevin Bronson Billy Corgan debuted his leaner, meaner Smashing Pumpkins on Wednesday night, roaring through a scintillating 80 minutes of songs old and new before ending the set nonplussed, a ukulele in his hand. A ukulele? Yes. Near the show's end, Corgan took up a four-stringer to play a solo acoustic version of "Love Is the Sweetest Thing." "I've waited a long time to play this thing," he said, strumming the intro while waiting for the chatter from the crowd at West Hollywood's Viper Room to die down. "They're not gonna be quiet, are they," he said good-naturedly. "The ukulele cannot compete with L.A." Some wiseguy yelled out "Tiptoe Through the Tulips," and Corgan took it in stride, joking, "They say never give your asshole uncle tickets, and there he is." After somebody else called out "Welcome Back Kotter" and the chatter continued, Corgan cut the song short, saying "I love you all, but I'm too old for this shit." He departed the stage without playing the planned encore of "Freak" and "Today." It was an odd finish to an otherwise exhilarating performance at the 200-capacity Sunset Strip club. The Pumpkins main man largely refrained from engaging the audience in dialogue (except for a mid-set remembrance of the first time he played the Viper Room, and how chatty the crowd was then) and seemed buoyant and energized on the small stage with his smaller band. Corgan has said in interviews that this four-piece edition of Pumpkins possess more "controlled fire," and on Wednesday — a warm-up for a 15-date U.S. tour that begins Tuesday in Cleveland — all the pistons were firing. The frontman and guitarist Jeff Schroeder — who besides Corgan is the only holdover from the Pumpkins' 20th anniversary tour in 2008 — engaged in dueling pyrotechnics on "Ava Adore" and the new "Song for a Son." New bassist Nicole Fiorentino's thick lines stood out in "Ava Adore" and the intro to the metal marvel "United States." And Jimmy Chamberlin's replacement on drums, wunderkind Mike Byrne, was nothing short of wild child all evening. With the likes of Perry Farrell and Matt Sorum watching from the VIP tables, Corgan was mostly smiles and shredding on this night. He wedged the line "Oh, California, look what you've done to me" into "Owata"; he seemed to delight in the unholy crunch of "Cherub Rock"; and he put more blood in the opening line of "Bullet With Butterfly Wings" than three vampire movies combined. The new material — the Pumpkins played three of the four songs on the new EP, "Teargarden by Kaleidyscope Vol. 1: Songs for a Sailor" — fit in seamlessly with the old (although "Song for Son" seems better suited to an acoustic guitar), and at one point, during "Perfect," the vibe was so feel-good that the crowd joined in with handclaps. If only a few of them would have covered some select mouths a few minutes later. The Smashing Pumpkins played the rather small stage at L.A.’s Viper Room as a warm up to their upcoming tour. The show was sold out as expected, and photographer Andrew Youssef (who celebrated his birthday by taking these shots of the show) says the newest lineup was pretty good. That’s including the band’s 20-year-old drummer Mike Byrne. The band played a mix of old and new Smashing Pumpkins, though there was one big omission. Youssef says the show was going well until Billy Corgan took out a ukulele for a solo on new song “Love Is.” The crowd wouldn’t quiet down, so they band cut their set short, without playing “Today.” They also cut out their new single “Freak,” (from their huge Teargarden By Kaleidyscope project).

Zero: расскажите че Корган не стал доигрывать эти треки "Love Is the Sweetest Thing. Freak Today

Ziggy Pop: они их решили вообще не играть

Zero: а чеже он тогда сказал I love you all, but I'm too old for this shit я так и не понял что его растроило, что он плюнул и ушел со сцены.

dzeen: посмотрел видео на cherub rock (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rPCXRQxQfbU) - говно какое-то, а не барабаны... *извините*

Philosopher: потому что Корган эгошизоид , поэтому и не стали доигрывать

Zero: Philosopher пишет: Корган эгошизоид

Zero: dzeen пишет: посмотрел видео на cherub rock (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rPCXRQxQfbU) - говно какое-то, а не барабаны... *извините* мне вот барабаны похеру. вот запилы Коргана в Аве Адор звучит ужасно, вообще словно не в тему. мне вообще не нравиться. мне кажется Корган стал перебарщивать с ними, типа показывает какой он виртуоз, а песня из-за этого страдает. все естественно ИМХО.
