sickle

Kopf

Apparently, billy's touring with some band, forget their name.. You can find out from somewhere like starla.org . The band's going to be releasing some unreleased stuff aswell as a DVD of *all* their music videos.... Cannot wait for that.

Just a touring guitarist with New Order.
Think he guests on one song from their new album too.

Basically he's whoring himself around these days.

Did anyone see the Pumpkins when they played the SFX back in the summer of '95?
They were supported by Ash one night and Whipping Boy the other.

Wish I coulda gone but I had no money and my parents wouldn't give me any. Damn, damn, damn. Would've been great to see them in such a small venue.

Billy Corgan is touring with New Order.
James Iha is going solo. His solo album is very very good.
Darcy is trying to become an actor(i am serious)
and poor old Jimmy is probably selling drugs to the people that toured with them

Well, I remember talking to a friend a while after the band split up, he told me about the whole darcy becoming an actress thing, but she was found with a load of cocain in her boot when she was pulled over, so that's the end of that career. That was actually just after she left the band, before machina.

Poor Jimmy.. one of the best drummers i've ever heard, if not *the* best.. what a waste.

PiE

I can't imagine offers to guest in/join bands being in short supply for Jimmy.

Amazing! i thought i was the only one who liked the pumpkins
got the best bootleg video in dublin recently, contains a '94 Germany gig, a Dave Fanning interview and profile and an MTV live concert.

Can any one tell me:

everything that you need

the zero ep is very good actually.
i give it 4 gold stars!
the aeroplane flies high,well i havent seen it around in a while,it was a limited edition but i did get the aeroplane flies lower boxset which isnt have as snazzy.

PiE

the Zero EP is great, especially "God", "Mouths of Babes" and "Pastachio Medley" ("Do the rubber man..."). Well worth the £10 i paid for it. :]

The only place I ever saw TAFH boxset in Dublin was in Tower Records, but that was about 2 years ago. :[

Zero EP is bloody brilliant, the only song on it (out of 7, one of which, my favourite, is around 20 minutes long) I don't like is "god", but it's still bearable. TAFH is alright... The tonight tonight single didn't strike me as being brilliant when i was listening to it, and neither does the 33 single. The Bullet with butterfly wings single has a very nice b-side, "said softly", i think it's called. The 1979 single is also brilliant.

PiE

Omg no. The "Tonight Tonight" single has some of the Pumpkins best songs ever! (The 7-track version).

"Medellia of the Gray Skies" anyone?!

Want to give me a loan of it perhaps?

And a quick correction, i called the BWBW b-side "Said softly" in a previous post.. It's actually called "said sadly". I always make the mistake....

Well after searching around a bit I came across The Aeroplane Flies High boxset for sale on www.towerrecords.co.uk It works out to be about £45IRE which as far as i know is still cheaper than if you were to buy it in the shops.

sickle

wow thats a really good price..if i only had £45. maybe for christmas

Billy sings a song on the new New Order album

PiE

That^ and..

James Iha's solo album "Let it Come Down".

If you search kazaa you'll find a lot of live recordings with other bands, i.e. "I've Got A Feeling" with Pearl Jam.

Theres the Batman Forever theme too, "The End is the Beginning is the End".

Also, Billy did parts of the music in the movie "Ransom" (the heavy metal in the room the kid(?) was being kept)

...If you count those as sideprojects.

Can't think of anything else...

[Edit]

Billy also did the Stigmata soundtrack and wrote most of Holes last album.

Oh and they used to always playing with "The Frogs". :]

There's a full list of sideprojects each member has been in at the very bottom.

perhaps not the rarity you were looking for but here are the pumpkins from 2000 in the Olympia apologising in advance to the world in case George Bush gets into office.

I've got The Future Embrace on CD, but some bloke from Illinois scribbled all over the cover of it.
