I was in a band that opened for the Smashing Pumpkins the first time they every played Madison, WI at O’Cayz Corral. Only 2 people came to watch show. Afterwards, I was having a drink at the bar with D’arcy, and she said, “I wish I was in a band like yours. You guys look like your having fun,” which still sticks with me, particularly afterwards since they got/are so big. You could already tell things were not great in the band.

If you have a moment with nothing better to do, here's how I discovered the Smashing Pumpkins: I was 14 years old. Back then, I used to live with my parents on the 4th floor of an apartment building. I had a friend who was a little older than me, he lived on the 2nd floor of that building. One night, when I was at his place, he had invited a few of his friends to play video games on his Nintendo NES and one of them had brought a CD that they played on repeat for the whole time. I didn't know that band. Half of the songs were songs played on acoustic guitars and the other half were songs played on electric guitars, all live versions. I didn't play video games with them, I just sat there, watching them and listening to the music and the more I listened to those songs, the more I liked them, especially one of the songs that was played on acoustic guitars. I later found out that this song is called "Disarm". When they were about to leave, I asked the guy who brought the CD who the band was and he was so happy that someone else liked The Smashing Pumpkins as much as he did. He even let me keep the CD for a couple of days, so that I could copy it to a cassette tape. A few days afterwards, I took the little money that I had and bought the Siamese Dream album.

I once spoke to Butch Vig and Shirley Ann Manson from Garbage (but mostly Butch) for about half an hour. It was when I was just getting serious about music. I mentioned that I was a drummer and Butch became immediately interested. He was admittedly a little tipsy, but he was incredibly nice and clearly passionate about others being passionate about music. He gave me a business card with his email on it. It was only a couple weeks after that I realised just who Butch was, and that Shirley was the vocalist of Garbage. I have no idea how it didn't click with me at the time I was speaking to them. There might have been other legends at the table too as it was a table of 6.

I was at a Pumpkins show maybe 15 years ago in London - think it was just Billy playing as SP - the crowd was a really obnoxious bunch of folks who just wanted to hear Siamese Dream and Melancolie back to back, and Billy was trying to play his newer stuff. Crowd kept shouting at him to play the old stuff and you could see he was getting progressively annoyed. Eventually he turned to the audience and basically said, fine you motherf***rs, you want the old stuff, here it is, and proceeded to play Bullet with Butterfly Wings at literally 3 times the normal tempo and then walked off stage. Pissed the entire audience off massively but I thought it was hilarious - it's like, it's Billy f***ng Corgan people, he's earned the right to play what he want to play and not be a performing monkey...

Billy opens up the set by openingly ridiculing the town by saying something like I don’t know why we are even here in Lafayette. I never held that against him… always hated living in Louisiana. From what I remember it was a great show.

It sounds to me like he's saying they had not started recording yet, Billy was showing Butch demos, and they were about to go in and record, then Billy said he needed more time for more songs, and that must have been in June 1992. Then they came back and began actually recording at the studio December 1992.

We had a singer that for mouths would just hum along to the songs we had but never had any actual lyrics. Finally, our guitar player told him to just let it out and stop trying to write the perfect lyric. He turned out to be the best frontman of any band I played in. And when we went into the studio, he learned how to do harmonies in like an hour.
