Talk about pretentious...
Billy Corgan is at it again.
Apparently, he wants to re-form the Smashing Pumpkins, and just had to tell the world about it via a full-page ad in the Chicago Tribune.
Make sure you click the link within the article, so you can see his gigantic bald head in all its newsprint glory.
I met Billy Corgan once when I canvassed his house for the Sierra Club in 1997. It was summer. Hot outside. He had this little yippy dog. I think it was a Yorkie. He wouldn't give me any money to save old growth forests. He wouldn't even sign my postcard.
His house was bright purple with gold trim. The little dog yipped and yipped.

Now that's the kind of "up-close & personal" rock story I love!
Billy Corgan: Friend to Yorkies. Enemy to trees.

Does he have pigment issues I didn't know about? Sup with the red hands?
