On a dark and stormy night ... a man walked into an AT&T (Cingular) Wireless store in Norridge IL (the HIP for those that know). I was at the counter, alone. The man told me he came in to buy his girlfriend a pre-paid phone and at the time that required an ID. His drivers license read William Corgan Sr and I commented that he shared a famous Chicago name. He took an exaggerated look around and said he usually didn't like people to know but he was the father of Billy Corgan, the famous musician. I sort of gushed about how I was a big fan, and he proceeded to tell me how proud he was of his son. He wasn't very interested in talking about his music, he wanted to tell me how smart his son was. How he had this nice house, and owned very nice things. How he had navigated the music business and come out on top by working hard and outsmarting the record executives. It wasn't until later I learned a little about Corgan Sr's history and his relationship with his son. Spaceboy has always had a special place in my heart, a meaning beyond the beautiful melody.

awesome story!

[@tj03297]

it's nice to hear that he's come around to his son.. ya know.. after all the millions of dollars and global fame

[@rockyh3425]

That guy will never be as good as Billy Corgan

[@TeddyLovesBacon]

Nope , but he can keep trying!

[@goobienoob3589]

I'm very confused by this comment. Not because it obviosuly is Billy but because it's better than older performances of the same song.

[@dianwilson4840]

Good luck to you, Rocky. I believe it is you that will never be Billy Corgan.

[@friendship6668]

👍👍👍 So glad he decided on those singing lessons back then. He sounds sooo good

[@cygnustsp]

I'm almost 50, so weird to think about the early 90s now

[@fuzzynutkila1]

He messes up and proves he is actually human! I knew it !

[@TeddyLovesBacon]

Yup, teh mess up was so casual, but you caught it , as did I... and yes, he kept going, Like a CHAMP!

[@nancydrew666]

Still has that voice

[@StoNe-ji6bc]

Imagine if he grabbed all these tracks, sat with Jimmy, James and Darcy...and rerecorded. We'd all be gobsmacked by the iconic delivery of the awesome foursome

[@Xuevium]

One of my favorite pumpkins songs. My musical life would be complete if Billy ever performed Sad Peter Pan acoustic with someone playing the flute parts with him.

[@TeddyLovesBacon]

Hhaha. Flute part would be nice I think billy could accommodate this :-)

[@ChainChomp122]

It’s criminal that Smashing Pumpkins never did an MTV Unplugged

[@TeddyLovesBacon]

Hey geo folkers, nice video.

[@LadyCroMag]

This bald dude is so fucking awesome!!!!!

[@hegenikolaisen5594]

DER fikk J stoppa det.

[@NoHeartAnthony]

I would love to have been there. Why was billy so rushed though, must have been embarrassed...

[@SR91313]

I doubt it was embarrassment since Billy Corgan has played just about everywhere imaginable. It was probably just the fact that a lot of musicians have played their own songs so many times that they just look for little, subtle ways to mix things up.

[@TeddyLovesBacon]

I agree, it did feel a bit up tempo, none the less amazing tho!
