    Anyone going to this gig?

    I heard an interview with Billy on dave fanning yesterday. Sounded interesting. Looks like it'll be a one-man-and-his-guitar sort of gig. He said he won't be playing any pumpkins songs, so i'm a bit iffy about going...

    Dont feel interested if he wont play a few Pumpkin numbers

    Was thinking about going- But its almost as if he's ashamed-

    I know he doesnt wanna live in the past

    But has he really done anything special without them?

    He hasn't done anything as near as impressive as the pumpkins stuff since they split. Some of the Zwan stuff was nice though, and the new solo single sounds ok. I'd kill to see the pumpkins, but billy on his own doesn't sound anywhere as fanstastic

    I'll go just to see how the hell he hopes to play any of the songs he's written in the past five years on his lonesome, with a guitar, without his copy of Reason.

    Plus the man is a legend, even if he's an asshole.

    Yeah, that pretty much sums up my thoughts. He's an amazing songwriter, so even though I've yet to hear the album, I would imagine that it'll be fairly good.
