Now this also could be fairly irrelevent to you all (lol), but thought I'd take the opportunity to formally announce that Smashing Pumpkins are back together and are finishing an album for this year. They will also be embarking on a world tour. The reasoning behind me loving this band was purely due to their drive, initiative and will to evolve. Billy Corgan (lead singer/guitarist) was another inspiration to me in life as well as Marianne. He also shared an optimistic view of the future, with the concept album 'Machina: The Machines of God' being based on an insane musician named Glass facing his demons in the year 2107. The world needs more people like Marianne and Billy methinks. They help us escape the unimportant things in life and help us reflect. Anyhoo if there is anyone on here that was touched by their music at one point I just thought I'd put this up. www.smashingpumpkins.com

Ooh, interesting! I was a bit young for their stuff when they were originally together, but I do like what I've heard of them now I'm older. ^_^

They grow on you quickly trust me lol. It was only in 97 that I really started listening to them more and ended up developing an obsession. Corgan is the only reason I ever picked up and guitar and began writing music lol.

You write music? cool!
I do believe I'm about oooh, 7 years too young for the smashing pumpkins (I was turning 8 in 97). I'll have to find some of their music and have a listen.
