Does anyone know why there's practically nothing up on smashingpumpkins.com? I want more info directly from the band!

Theyve been really busy as of late.....Im sure that as the year progresses, there will be an update.

(Ive been waiting for an update too, this damn suspense is killin me!)

It'll happen when it happens, patience is a good thing, id rather this not be rushed

well, they did update the website today. . it's still not much info, but it's new info:

THE SMASHING PUMPKINS ARE CURRENTLY IN THE STUDIO IN PREPARATION FOR THEIR FIRST ALBUM IN 7 YEARS.

Thanks for pointing that out Jodi. I'm going to put it on the front page.

Surely this means that there is a final line-up then ?

...must...not...be...sarcastic...

You've got it in one, without a line-up, there would be no album and no band

Haha, I know that Jack Ass ! (meant as jokingly and friendly as possible).

I mean that since we heard Melissa and Eric were competing, I mean they must have decided, I'm just saying they've obviously made their choices.

Felix, you know im not a hard ass and i was only joking with you, i think you're cool. I only joke around with people who i like. I like you, and i like this site.

If i was going to be an asshole here then you would all know about it, if you don't quite get me, or you think i might just be having a pop then don't worry. Seriously, if i mess with your minds then its a good sign LMAO.

Oh man, i should cut down on the alcohol

Woah, woah man, slow down.

I'm sorry, my post obviously wasn't clear enough, I meant it in a friendly and joking way, and I mean that, I wasn't being serious. I like you too man, and I mean, it's pretty obvious we both like this site, I mean, it's 25 to 1 in the morning and we're posting here !

I didn't mean it in an offensive way at all, and I know that you did not mean your post to be either.

I think we all need to cut down on our alcohol intake, but lets be serious, that aint gonna happen

My god, im going to pass out very shortly.

Let's spread love, not hate, and not in a gsy way unless you're into that sort of thing and the other person consents.

you were clear, i wasnt, oh i dont know *passes out*

Whatever. Fancy another beer ?

Aslong as we're all getting on it doesn't matter, which we are doing, right?!

It's all the websites fault, I think we're just taking out the sublimiminal anger that the update has subjected upon us with it's infinite shortness.

Hooray for updates! (However miniscule they may be. )

i hate that website, i wish it was billy's website, i never got tired of the "confessions".... i read everyone like 3 times. ps, do you think billy will put the bsides of the new album to the internet, like machina II?

Im pretty sure that with that message, that the lineup is finalized.

it all depends on the contracts he has with record labels


and yeah, I liked the confessions too

hey, i havn't been a pumpkins fan for too long. Can someone tell me what the Smashing Pumpkins Site was like before it had the Message "The Smashing Pumpkins Are Officially Back Together and Plan to begin recording in the summer" ??? DId it have MP3's of live stuff and unreleased stuff? What did it have?

Also, not being a pumpkins fan long doesnt meen i dont have a lot of rare stuff, i do, i have TONS!!!! MUHAHAHAHAHAHAHA. Actually not tons, compared to most people who are huge fans. I have a tiny chink of all smashing pumpkins rarities.

It went to billycorgan.com, which now goes to Smashingpumpkins.com! And before that I think maybe it went to Zwan's site, I remember before that it was all Machina-lookin'. Does anyone know when it started?
