SIGNS / Thirty Days - Day Twenty w/ Billy Corgan of The Smashing Pumpkins

The #ThirtyDays tour takes Billy through Austin, Texas and adds his manger Pete. The signs are all pointing this trip west and into the future. Billy sits down with Fox 7 anchor Lauren Petrowski next to the Colorado river in Austin for an interview and live performance.

One of my favorite people ever. My inspiration for making music.

I put on the Siamese Dream cd yesterday while I was doing a few hour road trip and I forgot how many songs I like off that album it's like a greatest hits cd to me because they all are great

[@sirGarald]

Siamese is a perfect album. Perfect. There are so few of them.

[@kymberlishea2036]

LUCKY GIRL!!!! Oh my God Billy sitting beside her singing mayonaise. Dead. ❤️

[@danderson2177]

I saw SP last night and have been a fan for 30+ years. I think if Billy played the guitar and sang in front of me: Not only would i have a frozen smile forever.. But i would probably faint....his voice is beyond blessed. Moves my soul though time and space. If i was reincarnated again...my soul would know i loved SP!! And be a fan all over again!! Thank you for making my life so great with your music!!

[@amymuchko7106]

I love the evil eye sweater. I wear something with the evil eye on it everyday. It is real. 🧿

[@unikat1349]

You're such a wonderful person Billy!!!! Love!! Love!!!

[@emilyjowett2604]

I met Billy and Jimmy in Zavvi Oxford Street 2008 in a special limited number wristband entry event. Didn't get long, but I was totally star struck. Could literally only answer my name and the words 'yes' to his questions. Was the the greatest day if my life. He signed American Gothic EP and then I went to the O2 to watch their 2hr performance at the front! Memories I'll never forget. I've literally binge watched all these today!! Last week i was at Wembley. 5th time seeing them and still always in ore of their talent. I will never take for granted or tire of the Pumpkins. Mayonnaise on my wedding day and I'll likely be burried to the same!

I just entered my second phase of machine recording device to learn more about recording live instruments.. I never knew how tuff it was going to get the farther away from our points of origin. As kid growing up in the 80s we had the basic education and technology that would allow everyone to change their future. At the same time we had many DARKforces involved that had worked to break down the family structure and had hurt American and the world..

[@mayorofthenonsense]

You cannot put a price on what he is doing here in this series. Yes, there is a promotional element to it, but this act of playing his guitar in public and really connecting with everyday people from all walks of life - this is what’s missing in the world. All of the dominant forces and narratives in present day society are geared towards dividing and isolating us from one another - they create irresolvable conflicts and tell us we have to pick a side. The symbolism of what Billy is doing here represents the antidote to all of that.

[@AXMEZ316VLOGSEandM]

I think I spent so many hours not just listening to your music, but to all your interviews and completely valuing the way you says thing and how detail you think...I love how you put your opinions so well spoken.

[@Se7enSA]

I saw SP In 1998 in South Africa. That made my love for them complete. Mayonnaise is my all time favorite.

[@biffa_bacon3879]

Dwayne Mohr was at the show on Cape Town, still my top show of all time!

[@sorrystateout]

I like the instrumental stuff he was playing.

[@stylerweiland]

Billy is the man!

[@TheJohnnyLucasFilmHouse]

Wow Billy taking requests! Love it.

[@TheClownfight]

awesome! This song, Mayonaise, is far and away my favorite Pumpkins song

[@winryanYouTube]

Billy posts this video even though it contains footage of him forgetting some words of his (and the Pumpkins' of course) song Mayonaise . Don't think many artists would want others to see their mistakes. Very cool Billy.

[@harekrsnaharerama8454]

Really enjoying this series. Only found it this morning. Very inspiring and chilled.

[@friendship6668]

great words. thank you

[@mayorofthenonsense]

Also, I have to say that this signature model he’s done with Yamaha sounds absolutely amazing. I actually didn’t like the look of it at first, looks a bit too much like a classical guitar for me - but then you get a closer look at the styling and detailing and it’s really quite pretty in an understated way. And the sound of it is incredible. The presence, balance and clarity is amazing.

[@Rockwater77]

Beautiful, "I forgot the words..."

[@jackiexgrace]

I'm so jealous of her lol

[@schotanusser]

i love the accoustic impovisation! hope its gonna be a song

[@colleencourtney6206]

Would love to to give you all my albums from the 70's & 80's. Soooo many. Nice segment...hanging in the park doing a one on one.👍😃💚

[@juliejohnson3626]

I see what you are saying about being trusted with a gift. William you are honorable

[@StarlytNite]

Play 1979, I was thinking about that song today I saw that number at work and was whistling the song

[@kristopherryanwatson]

this one was nice. short and sweet ! billy is nearly done for is 30 day challenge. i wonder what will be next.

[@wolfstar675]

If Corgan would ever ask me "Any requests?" I would for sure ask him to play Heartsong by Zwan!

[@oompaloompadoompa-de-doo3614]

How obscure lol

[@christsaves72]

79' ♡♡♡

[@Ch3rishtheday]

1979 would be my choice, this song brings so many good good memories!

[@sammmy4495]

If you can sing like that and write a song like that.... that friends is the key to the golden triangle

[@RiverKiva]

YaY!! you came to Austin!

[@kymberlishea2036]

I would literally shit my pants if he looked at me like that and said any requests. Yes Billy I have a few 😉😉

[@wendiloo25]

"(Big smile)Any requests?" That made me so happy for the woman present. My god. With an over flowing heart, if it were me in her place, I would have replied, "Dealer's choice. Please and thank you."💕💕💕

[@legatogrey]

i believe ill meet you someday

[@secondpsyght1354]

Darou Bain would make your life, wouldn't it?

[@deannayanzaguano6561]

come out to Connecticut!

[@JacobFrey]

William Patrick, please play a little of "Whir" for me!

[@Drizzttoable]

Jacob Frey I'd love to hear Jennifer Ever on here, my favourite pumpkins song

[@astrobot702]

Gosh, is all I can say.

[@deathkampdrone]

6:23 whoa billys manager is tall as a building

[@SlamminGraham]

She picked a really, really good song.

[@231flash]

I want to do a youtuber get together this summer up near Traverse City,Michigan, I know of a campground that is open for anything goes and has a small stage for music. Sometime around first week of July so there will also be the National Cherry Festival going and the National Sleeping Bear Dunes near by. Love to see you come up for it.

[@moledog88]

The real deal ! WPC! Let's add thirty more days on,,,,,I know,,,, lil selfish of me,,,,,I know

[@brucewayne5488]

To Love Somebody should be on the 50/50

[@JenniferOcious79]

I get a lot of flack for it, but I still think it's a better version than the original. There's a totally different vibe and his style works better for the lyrical content.

[@bladerunner1b]

Love that song. The way it just kinda swirls in the ether

[@brianmackercher5445]

kill it. fuckin killin it. Earth originally was in the orbit of Saturn which , at the time was a brown dwarf.

[@TwistinFool]

I want to have cancer so make a wish foundation gives me one wish. And that wish would be to sit down with Billy and talk for about an hour.

[@PinkTeamProductions]

You'll be just as bald as Billy too, so make sure to rub heads together!

[@ChristopherGideon]

The instrumental... Is that On The Playground, In The Wind by Flake Music I'm hearing?

[@phillip7928]

I thought the same

[@StarlytNite]

Pink chair for the porch of the pink house

[@Daniel-wj7nb]

anyone knows what song play with the black guitar?

[@hodgepodgecali2605]

I would be so embarrassed if I couldn't name one favorite song.

[@cinderbleh]

way cool. i would have requested 33.

[@milanpintar]

What song do you choose when Billy asked you your favourite?????

[@milanpintar]

how does he get those sounds out of the guitar

[@jmarshallstein9791]

He still gets the Babe's !

[@StarlytNite]

Well I. So glad he's on all them social media websites To know the truth I got caught up in some lying articles

[@StarlytNite]

Day 20 10 more days left And then what is he gonna do Miss us or we miss him

[@Ramoa111]

l only started paying attention to mayonnaise after a fan explained so wholeheartedly how much it meant to him

[@thomasramquist645]

I would have " requested" Marquis in Spades

[@garyabbot4659]

Thomas Ramquist yeah that's the one off the b sides that I though would have been great on any album.

[@Otepsaura]

How the hell can he forget the words to Mayonnaise?? Silly Billy!!!🤣🤣😂😂

[@user-dx9ph2sg7j]

I love it and I hate it all at the same time --- I guess, you'd understand what I mean

[@TheInsaneChef]

Awesome to know Billy is a real person that gets it. I do tons of these small town trips. It's easy to get on a plane and fly to whatever destination at 30 000 feet. However you never get to meet the real salt of the earth people unless you explore America one small town at a time

[@tonysoldati3468]

Any requests? Yeah: Tristessa

[@friendship6668]

now... what did THEY report?

[@Mardasee]

Ship atsea, shit as usual while they keep us in the dark about everything else.

[@KevinMcCalister27]

What model guitar is he playing? I know it's a Yamaha but other than that i'm clueless.

[@mazzy87236]

I understand it's 2 years too late, but it's his signature Yamaha model

[@Ernest-pl9gs]

Rain man

[@walkerpeterson4392]

Hey Billy, saying you suck,and your fired really hurts,maybe the rest of the pumpkins deserve an apology, think your cool, think again,ask yourself the ultimate question,did I fuck up did I drive away my old friends and maybe a piece of myself,go apologize,get it straight.to lift up your friends and family is to elevate yourself

[@GoCotton]

Billys manager is tall! 6:21. Sorry for the inanity.

[@StarlytNite]

New America fast food & boxed stores Then downtown is ghostville I'd say Walmart sell your merchandise in those When it comes to buying clothes do you go to downtown or to the mall Sadly when I think of clothes I think of mall Don't have to remember an umbrella, or wind messing up my hair

[@StarlytNite]

Mayonnaise Guessing songs while not looking

[@acefirefist8185]

William's manager looks like Ed O'Neal and Joe pesci

[@acefirefist8185]

Oh.. Yeah.. Love the videos and thanks

[@fiorellino7478]

I bet the 10 dislikes are from the teenies of nowadays

[@GranulatedStuff]

dont hold the mayo

[@alexanderson7047]

damn she picked mayonaise? Not expected. She looks like EC3

[@munch710]

1:08 Billy's "Manger" Pete.... Manager is spelled wrong! Also in the caption it says Manger Pete. :)

[@StarlytNite]

Billy's new boss Looking keeps looking at the taped mirror What was he thinking (what have I gotten myself into)

[@irenejanith2371]

hard boiled egg 0:00

[@Temptresstoo]

His speaking voice is so not what I expected.

[@burnedoils]

man does he look absurd enough, i sometimes feel like hes my child even tho hes 20 years older than me n prob could be my father, he makes things so backwards at time

[@Ramoa111]

illuminati sweatshirt

[@controloz3310]

It’s a shame his genius appeared to be a gift that was taken back. He hasn’t released anything anywhere near to it since Machina.

[@StarlytNite]

Son be angry I hope you and your son will have a better relationship then you and your dad seem to have All the, times your dad pissed you off, you try not do to your son

[@slow-mo_moonbuggy]

The Illuminati eye sweater makes Billy oh so douchey. Even more so than regular.

[@kristopherryanwatson]

but people who actually know him know otherwise. he doesn't need to be the nicest to people he doesnt know. sucks to be you to be lamely judgmental.

[@swordofgod2835]

It’s a cool sweater and doesn’t make him douchey

[@bozerdozer7309]

He’s so self-centered

[@kristopherryanwatson]

so you're here because..?

[@swordofgod2835]

Maybe so but I don’t think he has portrayed that in any way
