Smashing Pumpkins in tour e…

La prossima canzone di Teargardne by Kaleidyscope arriverà il 6 luglio. A renderlo noto è il tizio piuttosto alto, piuttosto pelato e piuttosto Billy Corgan. Lo fa attraverso una lettera aperta ai fan pubblicata sul sito ufficiale, in occasione del prossimo tour della band ormai imminente. Una lunga lettera, a dirla tutta, che include passaggi sinceramente deliziosi e malinconici come quello che segue:

Making the choice to continue under the banner of The Smashing Pumpkins name has been an easy and happy decision for me. Making the choice to continue it alone, as the only original member, at least on the surface of it was a difficult decision because it wasn’t ever part of my original intention. If I got my dream the way I had wanted it from the beginning, no one would have left and no one would have died. My Mom would still be giving me guff on the phone, and my Grandma would still be watching the Cubs and the skies would be blue and not ash color gray. And in a dingy industrial space on the northwest side of Chicago 4 miscreants would still be making that massive wall of sound, arguing about stupid things but never about music. That of course is the great secret about the original SP: we never argued about music. But history is for those who write it, not those who actually go out and make it.
