Beauty Lives Forever
“For a year now I have walked around with a secret, a secret I chose to keep. But now I want you to be among the first to know that I have made plans to renew and revive The Smashing Pumpkins. I want my band back, and my songs, and my dreams.”
The Smashing Pumpkins comeback?
I’m not going to allow myself to get excited. Because you know, it’s too good to be true.
Billy saying it on tv. Reviving the pumpkins. If it actually happens then it will be like a miracle. Rising from the dead. Who knows, maybe I will get to see the pumpkins live after all.
I can’t imagine James and D’arcy coming back though. Not after all the shit that went down. So… Billy and Jimmy. And Linda Strawberry? And who else? It won’t be the real real pumpkins. But even so. Billy and Jimmy playing pumpkin songs. That would be the best thing ever.
I don’t believe it though. I don’t believe it will go through like it’s supposed to. It’s the oldest lesson in the book. If it’s too good to be true, then it probably ain’t true.
But I hope you will all join me in crossing my fingers. Maybe dreams can come true?

I don’t see any reason why D’arcy wouldn’t want to join again..but I agree with you that it will be really hard to talk James into joining again. Billy’s talked too much shit, he’s got the Scratchy records thing going again, as well as playing with APC, and possibly recording another solo record.
That said, I don’t think Billy would make that statement unless he knew something that we didn’t. Let’s hope indeed.
