I've seen it, there's a short version and a very long version. One she ends up alive, one she ends up dead. Both weird.

mikki; Acid Girl:
anyway, can anyone suggest some good songs?

edit: shit, where has this band BEEN all my life???? In Love


Today is their best one in my opinion... Disarm, Cherub Rock, Bodies.
A lot of songs from Mellon Collie and Siamese Dream are their best, I think.

Im only starting to listen to them now.
I've only heard 5 songs but from what I've heard they are pretty good.
I remember 1979 from when I was young, its a really nice song.
Bullet With Butterfly Wings is awesome, so is Today
[sorry if I get the names wrong]
I want to get their CDs *saves up pocket money* they'd better have atleast one/some/all (presuming they have made more than one cd) of their albums in stores cause they sound good.

I remember being 6 years old, watching MTV with my mom, and wondering why the heck is there muddy people and something being a rat in a cage

Believe me, after that, Bullet with Butterfly Wings was stuck in my head for the next 7 years

Then I remember the video with the car with the cool sound effect in it (1979)

For a detailed info on the complete discography and songlist I recommend spfc.org It's a pretty huge list, so don't be shocked Wink but enough songs to get through the next couple of years Smile

Hello all my pumpkin pretties!

Been away from this thread way too long! I miss our pumpkin discussions!

So jealous of Beeblebrox seeing Pumpkins back when they were touring for Simease Dream! Sigh . . . you are so lucky!

So no new updates that I know of. There is speculation that Linda Strawberry might be in the band or possible as the touring keyboardist. However, a lot of hardcore pumpkins fans are upset by this cause they can't stand her. I am honestly neurtal about her. (However, her online personalitiy kind of reminds me of Eliza).

Speaking of Billy's 40th b-day here are some pics that have been found from his party!

Image

LOL Billy's Mr. Roger's sweater is hilarious!

Image

2/4 Pumpkins (100% Pumpkins currently)

Image


Shocked Linda Strawberry is the one on the left in the purple shirt.

Image

So there ya have it . . .Billy's Birthday!

Also, to all those that are justing getting into the pumpkins and asking what songs to listen to. (thanks silverrain for the spfc.org link!) but also if you have real player, Netphoria has a shit ton (probably most of the pumpkins songs available) available for your listening pleasure:

Netphoria Audio

Egg, Jennfer Ever, and Spiteface are personal favs that aren't on any of the albums.

Hope all is well in Pumpkinland! Much love to all my pumpkinheads esp. my fav pumpkin princess silverrain! hug

^^Woaahh…what a surpirse suprise!! cow Yu Thanks so much porcelinajune...you are chemicalpumpkilicious as ever!! a bighug

And Billy…especially in this dark blue trousers, light blue shirt and bright blue vest (He’s got a lot of blue going on…) and with this serious stare looks soooo adorable In Love…gosh I guess I’m just having a crush on a 40 year-old…(umm well I had before Wink)

But ..wtf…who are all those ladies/girls laying across him??
Linda Strawberry played on some of his concerts with him, didn’t she? So she might be in for D’arcy ..and not Melissa?

Yep much love and a good Sunday to all the pumpkin lovers in the whole wide pumpkinland Bye

PS I totally forgot about netphoria ...that’s an amazing source…I spent ours to find the old demo tapes and recordings like Jennifer Ever on the net years ago and now it’s just there! Wow

Edit: Oh I've realized that Linda Strawberry is not a bassist, but a singer & keyboardist. So it looks like our old men is planning to go on tour with two ladies this time.

Very Happy You are welcome everyone!

LOL I know Billy looks like the pimp with all those ladies but he has been rumoured to be hanging out with several porn stars over the last couple of years Rolling Eyes

Sorry this is short but I am super sleepy.

Speaking of pornstars . . . .So apparently there was a photoshoot for the album cover booklet for Zeitgeist. Apparently, there is suppose to be photos representing the seven deadly sins or episodes in human Each of the photos features a different porn star. Paris Hilton was also rumored to be at the photoshoot and possibly in the pics (hopefully not). The Paris Hilton part comes second hand from someone who was supposedly in the shoot. Here is what this person allededly said:

"the theme is quite long to explain - there were 8 different scenes or pictures which represent human sin, or the cycles in which humanity falls over and over again...coming from Billy it was great but now I dont remember everything...
Paris was in one of the scenes/pictures different from ours, thats why we didnt pose together.
FInally, here is a little picture of the "making of" (sorry for our looks, we werent really posing, lol). Gia Paloma, Sasha Grey, Billy and I."


If it is true about the the idea/photos, then I have to say I am a bit speechless and dissappointed but I will have to see. I really really think this is all probably rumor. I mean I guess it is kind of a cool idea about the photos representing the seven deadly sins and I guess porn stars are a good representation of this but to me that is so opposite of the pumpkins. IDK . . .we shall see. But Paris Hilton (sorry if any of you like her) Cheese

Here is a supposed picture from the shoot mentioned above but then people said this photo was possibly from awhile ago.

]Image

It kind of looks photoshopped to me but I am not always good at spotting good shop jobs.

Okay sorry for the ranting . . .I am just a bit confused over all this.

Hope all my chemical pumpkin beautiful souls are having a good week so far!


Bye hug

PS. Agreed! Yeah, for the first US announced date!

Edit: To my wonderful geetastic white striped pumpkin princess, Stef, sorry for not writing ya back lately . . .been so tired lately. Winkiss
