Wow, that's pretty wild, after their nasty split I never expected anything like this to even be on his mind. Now we just need to keep 'em away from Sharon Osbourne. :p
Hmmm I'm guessing Billy owns the rights to the name "Smashing Pumpkins" so this could be along the lines of the Gun's n Roses or Megadeth get togethers.
I just read an interview with him and he said he seriously doubted they would ever get back together. Weird.
No way in hizzy. Billy wants the original crew back together, i can tell. I'm a HUGE SP fan, a large Zwan fan and am currently listening to Billy's solo disc and scratching my SP tattoo on my back. I think he'd be wise to get the old crew back. Jimmy Chamberlain is top notch on the drums (i think Time magazine said, he's "thunder wrapped in skin"), Iha and Corgan mesh well, although if Iha didn't want to do it, i think Corgan could get somebody else. Since D'arcy is a crack addict, Billy could just get Melissa Auf Der Mer who did the Machina album and final tour. booya!!Quote:

That's the worst news I've heard all year.
i don't believe it will happen. methinks it's just a way to drum up interest in his solo record.
Sounds like he got tired of nobody buying his albums anymore. :p
I love the Smashing Pumpkins. If this news is true I look forward to seeing them.
It must just be to tour..... I thought Billy Corgan was more of a Prince type when it came to recording the albums, by that I mean playing all the instruments (besides the drums) by himself?
And wasn't Chamberlin heavy into the heroin? I thought he nearly died or something and was done with show biz?
