1st i care!
MUST GO!
first!!
woohoo! love 'em!
Why list them if you are so disinterested? Oh, right. I get it. You were paid to.
Nope, don't care.
I love smashing pumpkins ummmm who r they again
MY FAVORITE BAND EVER.
I LOVE BILLY CORGAN.
JIMMY IS THE SHIT.!
nope
shut up perez, of course people care, cause smashing pumpkins are awesome unlike your trashy europop
i care too! they were fabulous back when they were together. billy corgan is brilliant.
No Phoenix stop?! Ah c'mon! Siamese Dream was the first CD I ever bought when I was like 8 years old, SP are a great band.
I've seen them three times since reforming and they always FUCKING ROCK. Why post about them going on tour and then say "do you care?" Why take the initiative to post about them at all? From the looks of your comments it looks like i'm not the only person who loves the pumpkins. It's much better than that shitty europop crap you always post about like that kylie minogue woman.
I care…lots of people still care…especially around Chicago. I saw them just the other month, actually…the fourth or fifth time ever…and they rocked, still.
I care! Saw them, and got to meet Corgan and Jimmy. Jimmy was really cool and super nice!
ya Perez.. i guess you only like shitty music like Lindsey Lohan or some other stupid dyke bitch.. you are a homo u fag.. i hope u get ran over… smashing pumpkins are a great band..
hey Perez ur a fag
They're SO good, saw them in Dublin back in…February, I think? Anyway, they were incredible.
Oh my God no please no, please God no!
I care but they arent coming anywhere near where I live
First Metallica, now S. Pumpkins…..how about a little respect for these bands! I am sure alot of ppl still care for the S. Pumpkins…..they are an awesome band!
FUCK! NO ONE EVER COMES TO DENVER !!! WTF
They were great on the Simpsons. After that…meh. zzz
I still give a shit. Love you Billy, LOVE YOU!!!!
Hell yeah!
But the only song I know from them is "The Beginning is the End Is the Beginning" from the Watchmen trailer.
BILLY CORGAN IS AN ASSHOLE! A friend of mine went to one of they're concerts and he told the crowd that they were stupid for liking they're popular songs! What artist bashes they're own fans! DON'T WASTE YOUR MONEY!
It would have been swell if he had at least ASKED James (b/c BC would have asked darcy/she would have come back sometime soon after hell froze). Let's shoot for at least 75% of the band (and madm doesn't count) before we call it a reunion. But I get it. All for the commerical side. But STIIILLLLLL…… This is just like Splenda - kinda like sugar, but it ain't the real thing.
I care!! They are my favorite band! I will be at one of the DC shows and it will be my 6th SP concert.
I would care if they came to where I live. But I guess the band hasn't recovered yet from that long break. Maybe when Billy decide$ that need$ more citie$ to vi$it.
What's wrong, whackjob? They don't sound like Feist, so they don't matter? You're an idiot, you donkey.
BILLY CORGAN RULEZ!!
fuck you Mario! "do you care?" have repect for talent you ass hole. sorry its not jonas brothers. its a real band.
Fuck. Why not Canada, guys?
He looks like the yellow bad guy from Sin City in that picture.
i don't
Come to Italy, bitch!!
id care IF it was the original lineup…sadly, not gonna happen.
umm……i jus gotta say….hes OOGALY {{NOT ugly}}
Fuck you Perez. Smashing Pumpkins own your ass and have more talent than you will ever have.
You dont got talent what so ever, just look at that piece of shit song you pulled out of your ass.
Re: Lynnerawr –
You N00b. Clearly there are two dates for Toronto on the list.
I care!!!!!!!!!!!! The Smashing Pumpkins are the BEST!!!!
I care! I met my husband because of Billy. LOVE, LOVE, LOVE THEM!!! I've been happily married for 4 years and have a wonderful 9 month old son so I owe them a lot.
I care - that sounds like a great time! Would love to see them play again!
I used to like one of their songs, but I forgot what it was…
The Smashing Pumpkins are my favorite band and always will be. You better believe I'm going to see them during this tour!
I loved them.Would deffo go again.!!
it's so cute that people call you a fag and tell you to stfu and yet… they've taken the time to register so they can comment on your stuff :} that's how you know you've made it. ahahaha
I care. The Smashing Pumpkins are still an amzing and are great live.
You must care a smidgen to post it in the first place.
They were one of my favourite bands in high school…I still love them, especially their Siamese Dream album…
Didn't they all die of drug overdoses or lack of relevance?
FUCKIN' A!
hellll yeah!
bought my tickets the morning they went on sale!!!!
The Smashing Pumpkins have been my favourite band since i was 8. Billy is an amazing song writter. Siamese Dream and Mellon Collie are amazing bodies of work. People still care!!!
Do I care? Um, only one of the best rock bands ever. Yeah, I f#cking care.l
Mario doesn't like REAL music. Just sampled power pop candy crap.
Stop projecting your hatred of real music onto other people. You're idea of good music isn't really in line with those that have a good ear.
Whatever happened to that lucrative record company deal you had? Thought so.
SP has more talent in their pinky than you do in your whole tubby body.
fuckin right i care!
PEREZ, us (REAL) rock'n'roll fans have already told you to stfu about critiquing rock bands. first metallica, now SP. shut the fuck up! you don'tknow what you're talking about. you listen to jonas brothers and think it's "rock". stick to making fun of celebrities who can't defend themselves… stick with posting weird news stories (i quite enjoy them myself)… stop talking shit about amazing rock bands just bc u don't understand the genre.
and billy corgan isn't an "alien"… so fuck you. he's a musical genious who is more famous and talented than you will EVER be!!! you're just some stupid, shit talking blogger…. corgan has platinum records and millions of fans!!
SP FOREVER!!!!!!!!!!
i do care! hope they come back to mexico!
smashing pumpkins kick bum and i love pumpkin season.
missing out though - not coming vaaancouver boo!
Oh…my…gosh. This is the FIRST time ever, after being a long time avid visitor of this site, that Perez has offended me. Smashing Pumpkins are the greatest band of all time. If Perez gave them a fair chance and listened to a vast amount of their music, I know he'd love them. Billy Corgan is a fuckin genius. The former members and current members mesh with Billy to create some of the best music to ever grace the ears of this Earth.
sweet.
i love SP, they were one of the first bands i 'discovered' when i was 8 or 9 and started developing my taste in music. hopefully they will get all the members back together, but i'm not gonna hold my breath on that one.
*
poo-rez, too bad you have terrible taste in music. otherwise you'd also be excited about this. but you only like shitty pop music, and music you're paid to endorse. skimming through the comments shows i am not alone.
I might care if i could even remember what they sang that i liked.
I care.
Well judging by Perez's taste in "music" of course it only makes sense that he wouldn't care about Billy Corgan's musical brilliance.
as someone who has 35 smashing pumpkin tattoos, has seen them live 23 times, has met billy 15 times & has a set of drumsticks autographed by jimmy, i care. i will be at the so cal shows.
Re: JAY ELLE – Oh boy, I hope he didn't bash the new Metallica album.
Best thing that has came from them since the 80s… that thing is on FIRE.
It just shows how in tune Perez is with the rest of the country. He just likes candy pop crap.
So do most girls though…
Fuck the pumpkins. Here is another shot for you to see Billy Corgan in concerrt and have him tell his fans how bad he thinks they suck
I used to like them until I heard people saying Billy's a real asshole to people. Namely Sharon Osbourne mentioned how he was in a meeting when she used to manage them. Being rude is unprofessional, especially when you're rude to your own manager's kids in public. Classless. There are far better bands out there than Smashing Pumpkins. I mean has anyone told him that though the music and is voice mixed well, that the fucker really can't sing.
Do I care if the SP are on tour? How could I not??? They were one of the bands that defined the 90s. Cherub Rock anyone??? Honestly Perez you should pop that euro pop balloon that you are in & discover some real artist & not your flavor of the month that won't last.
I love Smashing Pumpkins! Billy and Jimmy are the best! So yea I care
Re: Boobarella –
Yeah uhmmm "who wants honey, as long as there is money" that was directed to she! She was money hungry and the band didn't like that shit. And either way most fam whores are assholes.
