and the embers never fade in your city by the lake

sup playas? honestly the first few times i listened to the pumpkins mellon collie i thought it was a bloated/overproduced mess. interestingly enough, i still think its a bloated mess but i have come to appreciate it in all its jon favreau-ness. sure there’s a few clunkers but as far as overdramatic rock albums go, its pretty tits.

    yeah, even though Pumpkins bootlegs and rarities were all over the internet when Zeitgeist came out, and as a result, I downloaded far more than I’ll be able to stomach in the next 3 years… yes, I would be interested in more Billy Corgan home demos.

    I am such a geeky completist.

    Incidentally, would some of the tracks that didn’t make it onto the album be the excerpts that combined to make the 25 minute last track on the Zero EP? Some of them sounded pretty good.

    im thinking i would like to hear more, just not all the instrumentals…. i had some demos years ago, and i was so disappointed when i found out they were all instrumentals, after paying money for them.

    but, at least let us know what it is that you are posting please.

    i never want to feel that disappointment again.

    thanks,
    m.a.

    you are my fav site. ever and always
