Oh how the mighty have fallen. I was reading his blog at www.billycorgan.com and I'm appalled at what he's been writing. His entries sound like the kind of infantile blog shit I read on LJ and want to retch. He's being a whiny bitch! I mean I know that's always been his reputation but I never believed it was as bad as this. I hate it when people do nothing but bitch on their blog but they do it indirectly and don't just say what they mean. If you go read what he wrote you'll see what I'm talking about, all he does is slam his former band members calling them filthy and immoral and whatnot, but he doesn't actually name names and say exactly what he's talking about. If there's one thing I hate the most it's entries in the form of cryptic prose slamming "someone", ranting on and on about how they suck but they won't actually say who they're talking about and why they suck so much. It's like they're scared to make sense. WHY BILLY, WHY? Grow up and be a man and stop whining like a little bitch, you're making yourself look bad. You used to be my hero, dammit. It makes me sad, why can't he be more like these classy upstanding gentlemen?
Some quotes from Robert:
"The Press try to categorize me a 'gloom-and-doom' singer. But, take a look at Morrissey! That man's a professional moaner!"
"Morrissey’s so depressing, if he doesn’t kill himself soon, I probably will"
"If Morrissey says not to eat meat, then I’m going to eat meat; that’s how much I hate Morrissey."
"You can't drink on an eight hour flight, pass out, and then go onstage...well you can, but then you're Spandau Ballet."
"I hate Madonna! She looks like she stinks!"
"I could write songs as bad as Wham's if I really felt the urge to, but what's the point?"
Now that's some good shit. Direct, to the point, and humorous. I tried to find some Ian McCulloch quotes because he's notorious for slamming other artists but sadly, I could not. I know I've heard some hilarious ones about Elvis Costello being fat and sweaty and U2 being music for plumbers and bricklayers. He didn't get the nickname "Mac the mouth" for nothing. My point is, Billy Corgan needs to stop being a whiny bitch and act like a man! That's why Robert and Ian still have their integrity in the public's eyes, they say exactly what they mean, no gay ass cryptic bullshit. Doesn't make me like his music any less but I respect him less as a person. Oh Billy, what happened?
