Billy Corgan stories are the best stories

[Only registered users can see links.]

Web drama’s heating up again for Billy Corgan, mere weeks after he announced he’ll be heading up a new professional wrestling organization. This time around, the story involves some nasty back-and-forth between the Smashing Pumpkins frontman and a guitar pedal engineer and transgender activist.

After spending money and collaborating to develop a bass pedal specifically for Corgan (per his request) with no feedback, Devi Ever aired her grievances toward the Smashing Pumpkins frontman on the SP forum site, Netphoria.

From there Billy sent out a series of now-deleted tweets about Ever’s “piece of shit” pedals, her business ethics, and her character. As if the childish fight-picking wasn’t enough, Corgan continually referred to Ever as him/her and he/she for being a transgender woman, and he commented on her appearance—as if calling someone an “ugly pig” is ever a relevant retort.

Outside of his public harassment, Corgan took the feud to Facebook, reportedly sending Ever nasty messages about her post, proving that Corgan doesn’t take well to criticism:

you ugly piece of shit...if i ever run into you, anywhere, at anytime, for as long as i live, i will knock your fucking lights out. don’t ever come near me, and if i hear even one more peep out of you in public about me, or the band, or the members of the band, i am gonna sue you for so much you’ll never be able to afford so much as to even make a fucking guitar cable.

Calling Corgan’s tweet about her stolen pedal idea libelous, Ever suggested that Corgan’s fuming was only going to make matters worse for him and his proposed lawsuit. The short reply from Ever sent Corgan into an even less comprehensible retort, where he wrote:

you fucked up, you know it, so eat shit, shut the fuck up and accept you’ve attacked someone who tried to HELP YOU. but addicts and self-destructive people like you who HATE THEMSELVES must turn their hate out. if this is what you have to do to not kill your unhappy self, well then i’d say it was a wise decision. beyond that, you are fucking lame, dumb, and so so ugly.

With assault threats now thrown into the mix, Ever posted a nearly 20-minute Youtube video explaining her side of the story—paying special attention to transgender rights and the disrespect Corgan had shown for them.

So, no one should talk about the Beatles either then, right?

If there was no future for RHCP I would. I just dont understand what the point is, all you had to do was explain why they were having such an event and maybe that woulda cleared it up.

So you are comparing the beatles to nirvana?

[inmytree]

I guess then we'd better get all of our Dylan, Springsteen, Pearl Jam, DMB, Radiohead, etc. talk in now, cause there's no point to having any discussion about them after they stop making music.

[FiddySpence]

Jonas has proven himself to be a special kind of retard.

It was only a matter of time before cult schizo-rappers Insane Clown Posse and rock baron Jack White collaborated to cover Mozart, and now, finally, the end result is here! No, but seriously, this happened. Jack White produced it and JEFF the Brotherhood plays as the backing band. Shaggy 2 Dope and Violent J engage in a ribald discussion — “I heard Mozart was deaf!” “Def as in dope?” — where they surmise that Mozart’s “underground” hit “Leck Mich Im Arsch” translates to “Like My Ass.” Seriously, I couldn’t even make this up, and I’m really good at making stuff up. I better let you at it. There might be a lot of explaining to do. It’s out on White’s Third Man Records in a couple of weeks.

Beethoven was deaf but good try boys I'm afraid to listen to that track...

[FiddySpence]

the range of emotions i'm feeling about that is overwhelming.

JEFF The Brotherhood are awesome though
