Hey, when did Billy Corgan sell out?

Fischnasty · 03-10-09, 12:17 PM

right after mellon collie. or perhaps right before.

Just a guess, but Billy might not own the rights to his own records. Few artists do.

Regardless, any hugely successful artist like him had to sell out at one point.

The fact that I'm only now just hearing SP songs in commercials says to me that he had some say in the matter.

There ya go... they're fighting co-owner Virgin over the rights:

lol dick i know the difference between cobain and corgan....i could've swore he overdosed a few years back....

Matt Rain · 03-10-09, 04:29 PM

lol, sorry for that.

I can relate - I'm always unsure whether Scott Weiland died or not. Always amazed to find out he's still alive.

Did you know Billy Corgan moved in with Courtney Love after Cobain offed himself? Did you know he wrote "Live Through This"?

I do!!!

Corgan was good until he totally festered out, during the Mellon Collie tour. Probably right after the drummer got the boot.
