Found it: grungereport.net/2009/11/09/courtney-love-trashes-billy-corgan/This was posted last night on Courtney Love’s Facebook, she deleted the messages today: ” Corgan is being a little bitch and delusional and treading in icy disgusting waters, do any of you understand antitrust violations? do you get that whenb a company is TOO BIG they suck anything up with it? Live Nation and Ticketmaster one of wich was partly collatorised by my daughters stolen and kurts blood money. just TAKEN< forging taxes etc, and Corgans ego thinks this is a GOOD THING” “take tonight tonight. take”Bodies” :thru the eyes of Ruby” “Today” any good song of Billys and its not only about me generally it contains my direct and literal lyrics or else its a reference to something i said and with the exception of 1979 is about “us” and right now i wish i had never mused for him.” ” its being MUSED ive never minded it. To be specific “love is suicide” to be specific ” the killer in me is the killer in you” to be speciific rewhat a prat he can be calling a b sides collection “Pisces Iscariot” ( eg kurts jesus they both pisean and leftys and he loves to think he had a space in our marriage,” ” that would be like me all of the sudden deciding FORGET what would Bono do( my latest kick ive had it before this time its more poignant since Bono actually handed me my ass when i was singing flat and it was delightful to be humbled i cant stop talking about it so im on a wwbd kick) and deciding thta lady “g” was the bees knees and i was going to copy her style. ” ” look corgan knows, so much, visually, aesthetically i dont want to take credit or shit like tristessa gloirana of the mists cos that is very much his shit, the more ambitius stuff and certainly he was tabula rasa in my hands per visual, he had 0 visual style and i gave him mine, he went on his own chicago worlds fair trip but i was on it first, ( eg tonight tonight video)” ” i never speak of it but now with his ridiculous “God” website ( hes pulling a qausi christian u2 thing its all manipulation and desperation and hes far better pff just being his grouchy assed self) and his demented fantasy to bring back the 90s wich are gone in terms of this BULLSHIT “fair performance act” he says hes …a “mans man” about money, no! hes just never been more than skimmed, his cpas are retarded too,” ” and he is not only being a preadotir with his new clingon gf whose i ( sighs) guess is somewhat “high profile” secretly not so actually, he cant kep any freinds he burns everyone and we all tru and try to support him and hes a douchebag again and again” ” yeah so the new “famous” gf ok this ones funny as fuck its not yet out but omg he wants a tabloid gf always has, i can imagine the sexual withholding insanity going in here, shes a christian kind of maybe just really dumb girl whose harmless and shes in for it. him i could handle, by never really loving him all the way, ;eaving it soo unbalanced.” ” thats just gossip & has no bearing why im mad at him. q prime wont have him ( HA! IMAGINE! Mensch whose1 of the last honest mgmt companies may be a handful but hes my friend, is wise, God he yelled at ME for 3 hours!! when i made amends. i love him, my manager is the other twin pillar of honest dealings, i love my m…ngr and will be with him til i retire & beyond, hes agenius, with sensitives & taking a chance w me” “so Billy wants a BIGGER BUDGET and he wants to pull a “COURTNEY DOES THE MATH” ( google it its genius) problem with THAT corgan is that your fucking manager is not only SATAN hes Violating the entire American way and is a sociopathic possibly psychotic thief, the man is the worst human on the earth, and hes using you like a puppet/whore and you think your so cool.” “o since you wont understand why its obscene on any level that azofff trying to imitate the far more stellar David Geffen the Poison Dwarf always in Geffens shadow the guy that loves to pretend to ignore me but CANT, i will TAKE HIM DOWN! has now by dint of the fact that i breathe, Kurt doesn’t ,therefore he steals from Frances Bean, divided a love., if he can do that ,did Billy ever actually Love ME?” ” i would have to say since Billly is gunning for the same headlining spots as me as the Smashing Pumpkins,THIS SUMMER OUGHT TO BE REALLY INTERESTING THE BATTLE OF CORGANS EGO WITH ITSELF, . DONT worry this isnt what i talk to my peers about, i never bring it up except to show them my Cobain Enterprises inc, co reg agents name TRAMPEL M WOODWORKING.” ” this shit is funny and tragic,”Oh your surnam is WOODWORKING? lets name our son TRAMPLE” and Corgans the same bitch whospent the 90s whining about fucking everything i ever did, and writing songs based on my letters, ,my books, his talent thats his that aint mine, someone needs to tell him”DUDE yoican be a freedom fighter and also be managed by azoff!”" “in any case ive said all i have to say, youllsee what a fucking PREDATOR Corgan is next week when you hit your tabloids, this poor girl , Jesus, . Christ this is worse than when he would’nt fuck but implied he was fucking Tila Tequila and did some intervention on her at my house, he wanted to feel like a Playah. Now hes topped himself!” “THIS SUMMER IS WAR! LETS GO! seriously Corgan, let go of Azoff !your being greedy,and a baby, he wont MISS YOU! you got your 100m!you know why your records Blow? too many people kissing your ass, thats why. and your nasty to people,. you gotta be Pissed. thats all kids care about, genuinely PISSED!” |

I don't know if Billy has decided the best way to release the tracks or there could be set up issues with the "technical" side of it ... website, iTunes, torrent ... how to get the music out there.

Long story short ... I'm no longer part of the SPMM. Actually the SPMM isn't around anymore for anybody. The direction from the band (ie Billy) is to have a simple site that just focuses on the music, which I’m more than happy to back and agree with. This needs to be the focus on a large project like this. However, have a a good design at least ... What they have is fucking shit, it looks crap and looks like it was most likely designed back in 1998. This wasn’t done by the PMM, not officially announced yet, but pretty obvious he has been ‘let go’ by the band I guess is one way of putting it. The sad thing is, I knew what he had planned for the new site ... And it would have been close to what we all would have wanted. Design wise, content wise and technology wise ... But that all changed. It makes me want to get my ass back into gear and do the things with Ozphoria I’ve wanted to do for years, this will be my focus in the new year I think. While I’m slightly upset I’m no longer working for the Pumpkins, what the SPMM achieved was fucking great in the past 1.5 years ... And it shouldn’t be forgotten what the PMM achieved with the community in 2.5 years ... He fucking worked his ass off on everything. The whole thing just seems to be all over the place. So with the new site, its the design that annoys me. Its shit, its crap and there is nothing beautiful about it ... The type used yet again is shitty. These are the time I miss having James in the band, he had great clear artistic direction input ... Whether credited or not ... His absence has been noticed in artwork in the last few years. ... I could go on but Im at work. |

I agree Sunky... The new design is pretty poor. I didn't like the old site as there seemed to be bits and pieces everywhere, but I did enjoy reading articles from SPMM. Really the only thing that matters to me is the music, and look forward to getting the tracks.... the fact that its from a dodgy looking website wont really come into the equation  |

It so reminds me of the clanky old sp.com of the 90's

i'm hoping this is a half-assed temporary set-up before the unveiling of a better, faster, stronger SP.com. but even for a temporary thing it's still pretty piss-poor and rather uninspiring. it looks like the internet as i remember it at age 8... 10 years ago.
shame about the PMM. i'm really hoping that Billy or the webmaster dude archive the articles, there's quite a few that i didn't get to read and some that i'd like to read again.
but yeah, hopefully this "new" site lasts a grand total of 1 more week. as long as they haven't demolished the discography section. it was nice to look at the official BC-checked lyrics rather than having to using generic lyric site #471. no pop-ups was good too.

I can confirm this site is not temporary. The content is backed up and archived though, just don't expect to see it at smashingpumpkins.com anytime soon.

well that's a crying shame. i thought that they were finally getting things right with the website and now this?
but, the music is still good and since i can't bring myself to hate BC, i guess we're gonna have to wing it.

id add my thoughts on the new website design but everyone else has pretty much said it. as long as the music and the process of making it is the focus ill be happy. anyone seen the interview with billy and steve jones? check it out - iamrogue.pgwexperience.com/live man billy looks happy. the interview is interesting too, covering topics that i knew billy was interested in but haven't heard much of him talking about till now. |

So on one hand 'recording albums is a dead art form' and on the other we're going to form a record label so we can release albums. Sorry for for the whinge and neg energy but it had to be said.

Yeah don't worry ... I thought the very same thing.
Unless they aren't releasing 'albums' from these bands, it could just be a way to release songs ... I guess that will be the difference from them.

Well if you notice, Fancy Space People - 3 songs. The Germs - 2 songs. Electric Prunes - 2 songs and an EP. It doesn't say how many songs to expect from Starchildren or YaTheyreACult 13.
