Billy Corgan answers YOUR questions (in his own way) about his new unscripted series

[@SupermanNew52]

SP has been my favorite band since 1994. Billy finally seems happy in his life and I'm so glad he's still around. I hope all of us fans watch the show tomorrow. Maybe we'll get official releases of Machina II and they'll put everything on streaming lol (had to make this tired joke for all the superfans that have been begging for this since forever). Good luck Billy, can't wait to see the show tomorrow.

[@termikes174]

Belly yeah. SP has been my favorite band since around the same time, I’m 47 now. Cheers!

[@mytorment]

​​@@termikes174hehe, 'Belly' made me smile 😊

[@jaysharpESQ]

I know I always point out how WE'RE so lucky if we're all in on SP being their favorite band... As it has been mine since I was 17... Did he say SOBE!? Again lol again again again... Anyway. What I was saying is I always take the angle of he/we're so lucky. But riddle me this- imagine if he did give up. If he didn't get SP BACK w the Chicago sun times ad. If he was crushed by his solo album fizzle faddle... If he let zwans implosion keep him down... If he broke it all off when Jimmy left after that disastrous 20 years of sadness tour, ya know? Would he ... Could he have wound up like Chris Cornell or Kurt? All the pondering of ' would ' his 'records sell...' and obviously the main lyric, everlasting gaze intro would be answered obviously.... Sheesh. I never thought about that. None of this. His kids his happiness... James 😂. Wow. What a thought. Pardon me broken English but I hope the sentiment comes across. Say hello to another Star ⭐ long live Kyle Davis... Hahah is Billy implying Chloe fights with Kyle? She's so smart and he's so.... Well let's just say he's teased one more CW app DL and subscriber here with that ittie bit of Intel just now. PS of course Billy would pick the most esoteric obtuse intellectual questions he can drone on about... 😂

[@jarathen1625]

The people need to be able to listen to Zwan without owning the disc.

[@SupermanNew52]

@@jarathen1625 That's right, ZWAN isn't on streaming either. I have all the CDs of everything SP and Billy related so I forgot about that. Need all that back up, Mary Star of the Sea and all the other ZWAN stuff is amazing.

[@charlesbritt842]

I love how Billy just owns this. It is nothing like the Pumpkins, but you can tell he is into this. Billy, thanks for your art all these years.

[@sarcophage]

Exactly!

[@2000jago]

Did you expect something less? Billy is the most genuine human being on the earth.

[@ayoungtricknamedjim5498]

It's literally all Pumpkins. He is extending what they've accomplished by moving into other media outside of music. Only those who haven't listened to their music would think this is somehow different than Pumpkins.

[@charlesbritt842]

I grew up on their music. The first cassette tape I ever bought on my own was Siamese dream.

[@skylilly1]

I’ll be tuning in 👍

[@83aquastar]

I can’t love this enough!! My brother got me into wrestling and he thought it was super cool that Billy was venturing into the wrestling world. First, Pantera bonds us and then Billy drops this Reese’s Cups goodness on us!! Thank you from the bottom of my homesick heart!!

I’m very intrigued and excited. Congrats on getting this made and further expanding the circus tent into new show formats

Feels good to be the rare pumpkins / wrestling fan

BC is one of those rare people where his own mind is his universe. He's so absolutely undeterred by anyone else's opinion. I cannot stress how rare a quality that is.

[@ChristopherJ655]

Underrated is what I’m guessing you meant but no he is absolutely not in my opinion. He’s a living legend. He’ll be remembered as one of the greats for sure

[@standinsilence]

Dude, I’m sure you get this all of the time, but your music gives me so much joy. Thank you. I hope the wrestling show is a hit!

[@kristopherryanwatson]

i've been a hardcore Pumpkins fan since '93. I pretty much devour anything to do with Billy and SP. to be honest, i've been on the fence about Billy's investment in NMA and Wrestling since he first got into it. Being from a Boxing family and having an understanding of how the wrestling and boxing circuit works from a grassroots level, I can appreciate that he is getting into something like this that he feels so strongly about, even though i was still very reluctant to care about it for the last few years. it just felt so random and unexpected! However, if this is the avenue wherein we can have a better understanding of Billy as he is naturally, as a regular person so to speak, and seeing him being involved in something he is so obviously passionate about outside of Music, I am so for it. Let's do this!

[@mytorment]

Man I don't think you can't talk so freely about devouring Billy's anything; there could be literate kids in the thread 🙏😇🫒

[@ignoredonthenet]

Just got halfway through and I think I'm a fan of wrestling now. “The Thrillbilly” Silas Mason is highly entertaining so far. The Paige Sisters look like babies to me, but babies that can kick my ass. The only thing is, when the Pumpkins performed it really brought the show to a... lull?

[@Therazorschannel]

I’ll be sure to watch Billy. Congratulations on the show.

Wow, this is about resurrecting NWA? My grandmother loved the NWA/WCW up until the day she died. I didn't think I'd ever see these two aspects of my youth intersect.

[@TimewastiusMaximus]

What I find amazing is the reverse has happened with Billy and SP, where most artists have been found out for being worse than the idea people had of them from a more widespread previously unheard negative commentary on them, Billy and SP has actually gotten better thanks to more widespread positivity as opposed to the loud minority of extremely negative voices from the forums and the very infancy of social media throughout the 2000s and early 2010s...quite amazing. Goes to show he was right all along - and should feel rightly justified, even if it was late than they deserved.

[@GregLionProductions]

I think your dedication to NWA is epic. Such an important part of history somewhat re imagined with some modern tweaks...yet preserved with a small studio feel and stars that make something modern feel classic (tim storm for example). I think i was a little young to appreciate the pumpkins and their peers. In my early teens, the vocal stylings really threw me off. Fast forward to age 40 and checking out NWA...I love the wrestling, and i love the opening song. "The witch" i think its called. With those really awkward dark key changes in the hook. So i went back and listened to The Smashing Pumpkins with an adult ear. The guitar on the early albums is abusd. So intense, nostalgic... I think you're a smart guy, an important musician, and your passion for pro wrestling makes me care about the sport again. I dont like wwe, its a high budget movie. It doesnt even resemble wrestling anymore. Its comsumed in a way that doesnt make sense to me in that its openly accepted as a play, that you respond to live...kinda like rocky horror picture show. You go to chant, sing, dress up.. I want a sport...NWA has full shows without entrances. Its done well, and I wish you great success. Im watchin dude
