Corgan should have stopped at saying he's suing for use of a song in advertising without his permission. He shot himself in the foot when he went on to boast "artistic integrity." Your fifteen minutes of street cred are up. The world is a vampire, sent to drain.

Hey Billy, remember track 14 on disc 2 of Mellon Collie & The Infinite Sadness? It's called "Farewell & Goodnight" and it was the last song on that album. In fact, that tune sounded the final knells of a career with any talent or appeal.

iha contributed very little and darcy literally played the bass parts that billy taught her. on the albums he would just play their parts himself.

But we miss James Iha. Shame on you Billy for trying to fool us by replacing one Asian guitarist and female bassist with another Asian guitarist and femail bass player.
