The Smashing Pumpkins were my ultimate teenage rock n' roll heroes. I can't possibly describe the influence their music has had on my life in so many ways. I saw them live 3 times before they split.

And yet....I can't help feeling a little uneasy about this. Billy Corgan can climb the heights of rock 'n roll again (like I hope he does) or just give us a bunch of decent songs that are nothing really special nonetheless. I've grown up, Billy Corgan has grown up, teenage angst has paid off well but now I'm bored and old (quote intended), and I...uh, well, I don't know.

But the hope in my heart is always the same deep down.
Like....do what you can do best Billy. We know what you're capable of, don't disappoint us. I really need some strong feelings lately. Really.
