from what i've heard about it, its a bootleg release done by some company that also released other albums of bands playing covers (ie Tori Amos, RHCP etc) So its not an official release by the band or virgin, but still a great find I've got a CDR of it and as Im sure you know (since you have it) its got some pretty cool covers on it. Most of the stuff are b-sides the band did and stuff like that.

billy playing with david bowie was a dream come true for me. 2 of my all-time fav artists. hearing billy sing on Jean Genie and All the Young Dudes has changed how i hear those songs ... i always expect to hear billy's voice kick in ... "she loves him - she loves him - but just for a short while" arhhh ... hmm im gonna go a try and find that cd now ...

i think they aren't going to update it anymore. I emailed them about source / date info that was wrong for an old boot AGES ago (about 4 years now) and it's still got the wrong info and i didn't get an email back or anything ps if anyone know the CORRECT details for the boot "Waiting for the Past" it would be greatly appreciated! it's been buggin me for years! lol

I've done the same thing Trev. I sent them info about some boots, things like There is No God and other things i found faults with ... and nothing from them.
But the site does get updated, with Zwan stuff and Billy solo shows etc ... so it strange why they don't update information about bootlegs for the Pumpkins.
What are you wanting to know about Waiting for the Past? ... i think i have it ... i think.

one of the guys who updates spfc is on netphoria, ive seen posts when people have told about dates or recording info and he has updated it instantly.
maybe they feel that since there is alot less commercial boots being made these days that its not worth focusing on.

waiting for the past thing:
well the 2 shows the bott is made from makes sense, but the tracks they assign them to doesn't.
Siva on the boot starts with the last minute of window paine, which is a different version of window paine than the track on the bootleg labelled window paine, yet they are labelled as from the same date / show. So it must be wrong, but i don't know which tracks are from which shows.
