I like Billy Corgan's thoughts about the idea of The Smashing Pumpkins. Sort of like the idea of Live that was birthed so many years ago and staying true to that idea. I think this is what C,C,P want for Live. Anyway, pretty interesting stuff in this interview, particularly from 6:49 on. I've heard other interviews where he goes into more detail about the concept of The Smashing Pumpkins. Good stuff whether you like them/him or not.

lol thats funny that you linked Monte's interview here. He's more infamously hated within the SP forum than Nick is over here.

I loved SP nearly as much as Live, any SP fan will tell you that Billy is completely full of shit, making excuses when it comes to anything new (at least he put out some nice reissues). I have no expectations for Oceania. He hasn't released an awesome song since Machina 2. SP3 is shit compared to SP1, and SP2 was even way better than SP3 cause Jimmy dominates Byrne and all the teargarden songs blow complete ass. Even though Shitgeist sucked, at least billy put on a show with jimmy. Now he can't even do that cause his bandmates are crap and the new songs sound horrible live. I pray that this doesn't happen to CCP. CCP's and SP3's situation are very different because Billy wrote all SP's songs and he's still there. SP3 = Ed solo.


Still I love talking about SP and Live in the same breath. For some reason, I have witnessed almost no material where either band recognizes the other, or where they were compared critically, despite being two legendary alt rock bands with bald lead singers selling millions of albums within the same year (integral.org was the exception, though they still didn't seem to cross paths there). However, I actually found this video from cerf.net the other day. Ed metions SP near the one minute mark - 97 interview:
