[edit] Reformed Chicago band
I am not sure if the Smashing Pumpkins are still based in Chicago? Billy & Jimmy both have houses in LA and Jeff, Lisa and Ginger all seem to call LA home too not Chicago. Funny, I used to see the original band putting up posters in Chicago back in the late '80s, and they used the parking garage down the street from me for a practice space.... rick 09:10, 31 August 2007 (UTC)
- Haha, I remember reading stories about how Corgan wrote a lot of the tracks on Siamese Dream while actually living in a parking garage, so that's interesting... but I think that in spirit, the band will ALWAYS be a "Chicago" band, as Billy has demonstrated a significant amount of loyalty to the city (he's always been a fan of the Cubs as far as I know, and his "biggest" performances have been in Chicago, like the final show before the breakup in 2000/2001/whenever it was). Plus, the article mentions the ad that ran in a Chicago paper about the reformation of the band. Every famous person nowdays has a house in LA, that doesn't mean that The Smashing Pumpkins is now a California band :) 67.163.165.236 (talk) 07:25, 12 January 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Plagiarism Problem
Most (if not all) of this info is stolen word-for-word from Ginger's official website bio. The article needs to be totally redone! ukforever 21:59, 25 October 2007 (UTC)
- I certainly agree that it needs to be rewritten but your assertion is a bit liberal. The words have been rearranged, most likely to avoid copyvio, and 'all' of the website most certainly not stolen as the lead-in and Smashing Pumpkins section do not appear on gingersling. com. It's not a total rewrite. It seems more appropriate to have deleted the 'work for word' pieces than label the entire article as a cut and paste job. the_undertow talk 23:46, 25 October 2007 (UTC)
[edit] calling you fun-filled Admins...
I've done some sourcing and a little copyediting. I do not believe this to be an infringement of the original bio page previously mentioned. Can you replace the article page with this little gem? the_undertow talk 01:14, 26 October 2007 (UTC)
