Virgin, Panties and a Billy Goat


Now, I don't want to be cross-Robert, but just when I was going to get an afternoon of boarding in, late season style, Billy Corgan and his pack pick today to sue Virgin Records for using some of their songs in an Amazon.com and Pepsi marketing campaign.

Now I just have to sit here and say something, before I can go hit the slopes. That got easy when Pumpkin Jimmy Chamberlin, talking about his record company said, "Seems they have long forgotten how to actually 'work' for a dollar." Til then I was having trouble commenting on millionaires trivial bullshit.

But then Pumpkin logic spoke to me. The Pumpkins sound like a ho complaining about her pimp trying to market her used underwear. I just got no time for shit like this when the snow's melting.

Reznor's Revenge


Mr. Trent Reznor, revenge is sweet, and I know you're really enjoying it.

It seems you blogged about this on your website.
You're just sitting back watching as TVT Records – the record company that tortured you – is now being tortured by the system.

I know you're enjoying seeing the first plantation owner you worked for being closed down. That Steve Gottlieb sure made your life as an artist famous, and then unpleasant.

Now it seems bankruptcy court has made Steve Gottlieb famous. Don't worry, unpleasant to follow.
