Money Whores?
The Pumpkins released FOUR different versions of their album.
A regular red version, a special more expensive version with a book, a best buy version and a target version.
Each one of these has a different bonus track. So ideally you'd want to buy ALL of them. spending probably over 60 on that PLUS the single for 12 bucks.
I understand the first two, but a best buy and targer version? Why is that necessary other than for more money?
Maybe I'm missing something.
Last week I made a comment on the pumpkins myspace about how they shouldn't be calling themselves a chicago band because they are playing as far away as possible and only coastal shows and this dumb bitch from california FLIPPED out at me. She clearly doesn't know billy at all because she insisted that "just because they're FROM chicago doesn't mean they have to play in chicago" and "billy doesn't control where they play, they have contracts they have to stick to" "and they're not coming to my city, i have to drive out of town to see them
Um you live in a suburb in california in the middle of nowhere I LIVE IN CHICAGO.
So all those newspaper adds he took out IN chicago about chicago and the pumpkins mean nothing?
And since when does someone control billy? A record release in DC just DOES NOT MAKE SENSE.
She finally stopped sending me crazy ass messages, but had she sent me one I would have said:
Sorry, I'm just spoild. I am from Chicago and saw the pumpkins when I was five or six in Michigan on the Siamese Dream tour. And then again at their second to last show at the United Center in Chicago. After that I was at EVERY SINGLE THING HE DID IN CHICAGO. the poetry, the book signing, the accoustic solo show, the zwan shows in chicago and milwaukee, and then the solo shows here. So fucking suck it you lame ass new fan.
raaannnt
I have a feeling that a lot of the fans that are really into this reunion didn't listen to the pumpkins before. Most of the people i know that are my age didnt listen to the pumpkins until they broke up.
As much as i think the new album is embaressing (vocally, and the lyrics) live his voice is better than ever.
But I'll be in Europe when he does his "huge special chicago show"
OH well.
I still haven't bought my plane tickets to Ireland! fuuuck.
