pepperonigin Posted August 22, 2017 Share Posted August 22, 2017 In case anyone was curious, I e-mailed them about the possibility of switching a bundled black vinyl with a blue and they said no. So annoying. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which really pisses me off, because when I paid $300 for one of his meet and greets and drove 7 hours to be there, he wouldn't sign my OG orange Siamese Dream record because "if I sign yours I have to sign everyone's"... "Everyone" being the 10 dedicated fans in the room. That was my 3rd and last time trying to get an autograph from him, especially when he had $250 signed albums on Zuzus website shortly thereafter.

Paying a huge markup for an autograph is fucking stupid. I'm a huge Corgan fan and I'll never do it. A few bucks? Sure. But when something is $100 more because of a signature that isn't even personalized, it's bordering extortion. You'd think with how his later career has gone, he'd be happy to sign a few autographs... bluescreenlife 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jackshidt Posted August 22, 2017 Share Posted August 22, 2017 That's so strange. I have his autograph. He was set up at the NAMM convention maybe 8 years ago and was just signing photographs and handing them out as quickly as he could write, to anyone who wanted to take one.

beags Posted August 23, 2017 Share Posted August 23, 2017 Surprised to see this getting slammed on SPs social media posts, I'm really digging the new single and the blue vinyl was an insta purchase for me. Really wish he'd hurry along those Machina represses though easily 2 of my favourite albums of all time Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Really wish he'd hurry along those Machina represses though easily 2 of my favourite albums of all time A lot of people are trashing it. I could do without all of the vibrato and "lovers" but I really like the song, the production, and the mix. His voice IS loud, but Rubin has made it sit better than previous efforts. I preordered the blue pretty much instantly, so whatever gripes I have aren't keeping me from buying it. And a big fuck yes on the Machina I/II reissue. I've been tempted to buy an OG copy a bunch of times but have held off because, money. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
timsimmons Posted August 23, 2017 Share Posted August 23, 2017 All I want is the Machina reissue so I can be out. This stuff just isn't doing it for me. Him turning into a weirdo over the past 15 years doesn't help matters. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At the same meet and greet I described earlier there was a guy that flew across the country for this little half-hour acoustic show at Zuzus, brought his Billy Corgan signature Reverend guitar to have autographed, but all he got was "sorry I don't sign guitars." He'd literally given Billy thousands of dollars already, but it was too much for Billy to write his name in return. It just says something about his character. Still looking forward to hearing the album, and the SP reunion, but I have little respect left for the man himself.

bluescreenlife Posted August 23, 2017 Author Share Posted August 23, 2017 When I met him I asked about the Alex Jones stuff. He chuckled and said "oh yeah, the fake news stuff". He seemed to view Alex Jones like he (and many) view wrestling, which as many of us know he's big into. It's entertainment. I don't think WPC is a Trump supporter or a fan of anyone who is, but I do think he strongly believes in constitutional rights, in this case free speech. Anyway, I really don't want to get into politics so I'm leaving it at that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I listened to that Alex Jones interview because I was curious and it wasn't as bad as I expected. I abhor Alex Jones but it was an interesting discussion and Billy was quick to sidestep any controversial things that Alex Jones may have said. Yeah, I felt the same. Billy is actually pretty level-headed when you watch his interviews. I think media likes to take the fact that he said Trump supporters should be allowed to have free speech, and spin it to mean he's a Trump-lover with the same message as the people at the rallies. No, he's just saying he doesn't believe in silencing somebody because they have a different opinion that you. And I agree. I'm neither conservative nor liberal, but I was annoyed at a lot of the immature liberal reactions to Trump's success this past election. I don't like it either, but we have to be mature about it. I also agree with his "entertainment industry doesn't care about facts" statement. They want clicks on their websites so they can profit as much as possible from advertising.
