I also got to hang out with his friend Yung Chen Lhamo, amazing Tibetan singer. But I had the best experience and good memories of that time. You’re the best Billy!!!

    As an audience member that saw you for the first time live a few years ago when you played a festival in Denmark, I LOVED that you played alot of new stuff alongside the older stuff. Hearing the old stuff was amazing, but it didn't end up being like a "Greatest hits" thing, which was good. It was so cool when you launched into that Tiberius intro. Hell yes.

I hate the music these days and the way older music is discovered is all through commercials, Netflix shows, movies and such. I mean are there great albums getting put out these days? Not really. Very few artists these days have I discovered to be worth listening to. it’s amazing to think where will the music industry lead to….

When MTV did come out, all those videos were still songs from the radio. If you liked a song or you loved an artist, we bought the album. And I see more younger people looking at commercials and shows and such(we all see those comments- such and such brought me here) and its all older music!!! You tell me one great album, and I mean from first to last track that could possibly become an album to listen to for years to come. I’m not talking about artists who are from the 90’s or bands who have been around for a while. I’m talking about NEW music from the past 2 years that you love. Name an artist and album. We aren’t lazy to find new great music. We are tired of the disenchanted artists who are putting out music.

We had an Internet access but you had to unplug the phone to be able to connect to the Internet. It wasn't just the speed that was unbelievably slow, I had to wait until my parents went to sleep, so that I could unplug the phone! It took me *days* to download all of the songs!
      This was also when I went to see them live for the first time. It was in 1999 in Ghent, Belgium and I remember that, at some point, during the show, Billy asked someone to come up on stage to translate something he wanted to say and then he talked about Machina 2, about the label not wanting to release the album and that they were going to give it out for free and invited everyone to download it.

    I dont know.He's done these Q & A's for years.Hes been talking about the Machina reissue for what 10 years now? It did make my day when he mentioned Massive Attack. The first two albums were the best.Mezzanine was OK for me though it seems to be the fan favorite.He must have been inspired by the later Massive Attack on Adore or even Cyr.Earlier Massive had this late night groovy jazzy feel but the newer Massive Attack is darker.I know one thing is for sure and that is you can never take Corgan at face value on these Q & A's in terms of the Reissues or announcements.Another thing he has had a bad habit of doing is talking up and hyping projects.Shiny had one good song and the rest was uninspired and I remember him saying it was a Pisces Iscariot type record.As far as the 33 song album goes I won't hold my breath.When he was talking about being the bad cop and producers not fitting the reality of what he wants didnt give me much hope for the 33 song album. Production has tanked his music for 15 years.I remember Kerry saying about 10 years ago Billy doesn't listen to anyone.I know its his vision but look at a song like Owata.Great track ruined by production.It doesn't give me much hope for this 33 song album (assuming its not shelved or abandoned).I just doubt if Billy can pull off the sonic diversity and ambition that would be required for it.Its a fair comcern because look at Teargarden.Remember that 44 song album? Never happened.10 songs in he abandoned it.Machina is another big album that years later after announced still hasnt been realized.Cyr suffers from the production issues that his work suffered now for 15 years.The Gish live stream was a mess.I was excited when he mentioned archive stuff but then he announced a vinyl of an early incomplete live show that may not even come out but you had to pay for at least 6 months in advance.For Billy being so concerned with how to get the music out this method seems so clunky when there's so much technology,resources and methods to get music to fans.Josh Rouse has been doing a couple monthly releases of unreleased songs on Patreon for example.Billy seems to pride himself on being in the cutting edge of things but in terms of the archival stuff he seems to be in the dark ages of 20 years ago of how do we get this out to the fans? Ive supported everything he's put out and have bought all the releases.But I as a fan feel like we are taken for granted at times. Machina reissue,Zwan reissue,Teargarden complete and Chicago Kid would be dreams come true.But with Corgans history dont count on him to deliver the resissues and new material.In spite of the years of frustration I still somehow enjoy hearing his insight in these interviews.

      @@neilanadams5173 When he was a big label brat I think the pressure for quality was intense.I miss the B Sides side of things too.Theres so much he could do for his fans.He wanted to sell Cyr as like multiple singles on vinyl for a couple hundred bucks recently and I was like no way! This guy is crazy.I think its funny in this video he criticizes record label "models" but his "models" of getting things to his fans has been horrible such as archives,Cyr vinyl and recent incomplete Gish live show.I cant justify spending that if theres not B Sides or bonus tracks to give me incentive to drop that kind of money.He basically has all the rights to his music (rightfully so) and can put what he wants from the archives when he wants and any new albums he has had free reign as a producer and the big label pressure isnt there and to be honest it has reflected negatively on his later work in terms of production. These videos are all the same.When you've seen one youve seen them all because again hes been going on about this for what seems like almost 20 years.Its frustrating.Its a part of the reason I dont go to his shows and buy merchandise.Just kind of done expecting or hoping based on these videos.I truly wonder if he actually enjoys kind of dangling things to his fans.Maybe we will finally be proven wrong but I wont count on it. The yuear before last year Billy was talking about unleashing the archives (supposed to happen in 2020) and "killing people with content". Well still hasnt happened LOL. In spite of all that I still respect Billy greatly.
