I love James- he's not what I thought he'd be like at all; in photos, he's got that whole 'mystery wrapped in an enigma shy guy' vibe going on. To see him being happily bonkers was such a surprise that I found myself smiling every time he came on screen: what a love!
It looks like Darcy came to absolutely hate being in Billy's band, I wish her peace, sobriety, and the eventual position to tell her side of the story on big platform.
Unfathomably based James Iha. The king of surrealist stage presence and minimalist guitar playing. I like how Howard Stern asked him three years ago about his chord choice being different and if he did that to harmonise better with Billy, and his response was just "Oh I don't really think about it. There is a lot of Billy in how I approach guitar, but the spirit is all James. I have nfi what I do half the time. I just make noise.
@@nesfan8 strange how that works sometimes. Junkies aren't always that strange. Sometimes it actually decreases neurosis but eventually causes massive havoc.
I think they all are, Billy is weird for sure but he worked loads and recorded most songs in his own which is incredibly difficult so i understand him. Pumpkins forever❤️
I'm in my early 30's and Siamese Dream dropped when I was in JR High and Mellon Collie dropped when I was in HS. As someone who felt alienated by my family I really related to this band and Billy's words. Thank you for putting this together. This was my first favorite band. Still one of my all time favs. Very underrated band and pound for pound one of the best bands to come around the last 30 years.
I remember seeing them in Fla, and in NC!! Probably the best show I had ever seen!! Jimmy Chamberlain is one of the best drummers ever!!! He’s up there with Buddy Rich!! Check out Jimmy Chamberlain’s solo at Vick’s drum shop. He’s doing a DW demo!! It’s classic!!
My Fav. one is "If we die in the Lynyrd Skynyrd plain crash @ least we got this" - "Easy, alright". Thnx so much whoever compiled this. Pumpkins were my entire youth!
Honestly, I wasn't even around when they performed mayonnaise in 1993, but it might be my favourite video on youtube. It just gets me every time, and when he forgets the lyrics aghhh its just.. wonderful
7:36 He's talking about Jim DeRogatis. Jim has a whole section about his battles with Corgan in a book caled "Mik It". Favorite bit: Corgan banned Jim from a show, but the venue had a big glass window behind the stage, so Jim just set up a lawn chair outside and watched the show that way.
Rudi Völler is his full name. A Legendary German Soccer Player. I think Billy saw the World Cup in the States in 1994. Later Rudi played over the Boards for Chicago. So the Joke from Billy. 😅
"That's James, that's D'arcy, that's Jimmy, and I'm Fred...Billy's evil twin. Billy would have loved to have been here tonight, but he was too busy being sad." Awww! That intro was too cute.
Ok guys, since I can't put Part 4 on vimeo and dailymotion, I'll re-edit the video and hopefully there isn't that many copyright problems. I'll do this as soon as I can. =D

Lol I was thinking the same watching this. They all come across as deuchy at certain times except for Jimmy who is always cool. Billy is pretty funny throughout though.

"Billy would've liked to have been here tonight... but he was too busy being sad"
I wish the original band stayed together
In an alternate future were Billy was a bit nicer.
Or D'Arcy didn't want to pursue an acting career.
The Everlasting Gaze and hair
Wish granted... Sort of.
Just imagine if billy let darcy and james have more creative input on mellon collie
I love James- he's not what I thought he'd be like at all; in photos, he's got that whole 'mystery wrapped in an enigma shy guy' vibe going on.
To see him being happily bonkers was such a surprise that I found myself smiling every time he came on screen: what a love!
chichi and fnaf I think he's kind of like that now...very reserved, very mysterious. Still love him though!
"WELL DON'T INTER-FUCKING-RUPT!"
Someone needs to make that Smashing Pumpkins sitcom a reality. I would never stop watching it.
It looks like Darcy came to absolutely hate being in Billy's band, I wish her peace, sobriety, and the eventual position to tell her side of the story on big platform.
Gosh, you really can see the band fall apart little by little in this vid... but you also get to see Billy grow as a person. very neat
Billy: "I'm sure the Anti-Christ is already on this planet."
Darcy: "Maybe even in this room."
*they both point at James Iha* LOL!
Ye they didnt joke about the first sentence, they never do 😂
Wonderful collection.
James: Why is everyone quiet?
Me: Because Billy keeps tellin' everyone to shut up.
Well dude he’s sleeping
He also needs a little hope
And eventually Darcy's like "F--- this.".
They look like they had a lot of fun. Shame it couldn't last forever...Miss the real band.
what they got now is working great for them seen em the other night
Logan Wilbanks still missing D’Arcy.
They looked really uncomfortable. I was uncomfortable watching them.
Yea pretty much I fell on this today over two decades later so
2 years later and 3 out of 4 of the original members are back 😎 Only one missing is Darcy. Saw them in Greensboro last week and they were amazing!
Billy and James are probably the funniest people ever.
Aga Rojek you should watch Green Day interviews
@@andrewbmartin or nirvana interviews
@@davidjveyna or red hot chili peppers interview ! Even more funny!
Darcy is cool like.hrr style Billy i love you
This is dumb

jimmy chamberlin seems to be the only one who is at all down to earth.
nworbrelytthefirst he was the one abusing alcohol and drugs the most. Still the most sane one. I fucking loved Smashing Pumpkins
@@nesfan8 strange how that works sometimes. Junkies aren't always that strange. Sometimes it actually decreases neurosis but eventually causes massive havoc.

Pumpkins forever❤️
d'arcy lives in her small hometown and has for like 20 years. on a horse farm. quiet, anonymous life.
The oldest
Siamese Dream recording sessions circa 1992
Darcy: “Hey billy you think I can lay down a bass track mysel-“
Billy: “Well don’t inter FUCKING rupt!”
5:31 what song is this again ?
@@Onche518 zero
I can't believe they played twister with Nirvana
Fuck... Same... Thinking about it recently...
No, actually Nirvana got a chance to play twister with The Smashing Pumpkins
It's wild how the Smashing Pumpkins and Nirvana got to play Twister man
I almost hate how much i'm attracted to ALL OF THEM.
Lol
Ew
D'arcy was cute in the 90s and shy but that just made her cuter.
I would have given her a go for sure.
I still would
@@dixonbeejay she looked fantastic then. Tragic development.
billy and james are so sweet in this
I fucking lost it when billy and James were vocalizing the Siva solo.
How the hell they hated each other on backstage. They were like the best group of friends on these videos.
right from the very start you can see how well the band got along lol
Or didn't :P
Right...
Bs. The lack of chemistry is horrifying, it's a miracle they lasted that long.
I love Smashing Pumpkins, been a fan since 1992.
James and Darcy had extreme sexual tension
A wild Dave Grohl appears at 11:00.
lol everloooooong
i’ve waited here for yoooouuuu

Well. Welcome to your early 40s then, my bro.
"stoppen ze throwwen ze cuppen"
"Billy would've liked to be here, but he's too busy being sad" haha
damn, how I miss those extraordinary musical bass lines and the captivating beauty of D'arcy
in a parallel universe the original band is together
Billy is an odd one, but he was pretty back in the 90s
Yeah, bald or not I think I really liked Billy in the 90's cause he seemed fun and a joy to be around. Nowadays he's just...well yeah.
He was a good looking guy.
Shame that he shaved it all off
@@olivermahoney3429 he was going bald anyway
He's cute even now, such a great guy. Love him since i was 13
I remember seeing them in Fla, and in NC!! Probably the best show I had ever seen!! Jimmy Chamberlain is one of the best drummers ever!!! He’s up there with Buddy Rich!! Check out Jimmy Chamberlain’s solo at Vick’s drum shop. He’s doing a DW demo!! It’s classic!!
Totally underrated.
The original lineup were just so good
Why am I just realizing how much I love billy
i love when billy winks at someone in the audience at a show.
i think i would melt
@@silverfcksame
Wow, Billy and James looked like they were so close. I still wanna know what exactly happened between Billy and everyone else :(
Am I the only one seeing Angela from the office in D'arcy
Since the first episode of the Office
Also since I first saw lord Voldemort billy
Every time she complains about the band's name. She's so adorable.
Nailed it...seriously...
Man .. James and Billy were great together ....
In the two band interactions at 9:35 (Billy vs Jimmy) and 9:40 (James vs D'arcy), you see how tensely confrontation the band got at times.
Easy alright 😅😅😅
I want a band now damn it!
Thanks for putting this video together I just laugh all the way through it I've watched it several times what a fun band to be in thank you
1:56 Darcy never came across as being excited to be in the band or on stage.
she probably was very excited about being in the band, however she had horrible stage fright and did not enjoy being on stage unless really high.
I used to really love the pumpkins. This video reminds me why.
James doing that "running man" challenge before it was even cool!
James at 11:52 is my favourite moment
I came here for Billy, and stayed for James... and Billy. :)
I really like the band name...
"Oh the humanity!" omg, they're such dorks :P
Thank you for uploading this, kind Sir. You are a gentleman and a scholar.
Corgan is funny as fuck
Se extraña la formación original de la banda. Los cuatro juntos eran únicos y no se volverá a repetir. Sólo queda el recuerdo de algo que ya fue
My Fav. one is "If we die in the Lynyrd Skynyrd plain crash @ least we got this" - "Easy, alright". Thnx so much whoever compiled this. Pumpkins were my entire youth!
I love when Billy shhh's the audience and tells them to just shut up at the Metro.....funny stuff
James is so funny XD
Honestly, I wasn't even around when they performed mayonnaise in 1993, but it might be my favourite video on youtube. It just gets me every time, and when he forgets the lyrics aghhh its just.. wonderful
17:29 Im in love
Wow... Great compilation! Some rare footage too...
7:36 He's talking about Jim DeRogatis. Jim has a whole section about his battles with Corgan in a book caled "Mik It". Favorite bit: Corgan banned Jim from a show, but the venue had a big glass window behind the stage, so Jim just set up a lawn chair outside and watched the show that way.
In some of these clips they must’ve been so fried on acid
James is fucking awesome!
Rudi Völler is his full name. A Legendary German Soccer Player. I think Billy saw the World Cup in the States in 1994. Later Rudi played over the Boards for Chicago. So the Joke from Billy. 😅
JImmy could be John Hamm's Brother I swear.
damn straight
14:29 James just stares at the naked man
D'arcy was so cute!
so was billy 😍
When I'm arguing with my sibling but then my mom hears
0:36
the part when James was dancing in the mist omfg 😂
16:51 was the best version of the star spangled banner ever lol
i wish they still made men like 90’s james iha…
This is amazing!
17:55 "i want that job!" lolol
17:54 Guy in the audience "I want that job!" lol
The day I die is the day I see Dave Grohl play Twister with James Iha.
"That's James, that's D'arcy, that's Jimmy, and I'm Fred...Billy's evil twin. Billy would have loved to have been here tonight, but he was too busy being sad."
Awww! That intro was too cute.
Cynthia Zelaya and way too real.
I Saw Them in 98' I Love The Smashing Pumpkins 🖤 SP
james is hilarious when he sings more than a woman hahahaha that part made me wet my pants. and when billy winked hahahaha
Thanks for these videos, I have the video collection and LOVE the commentary and alternate takes. I will definately watch all of these
Ok guys, since I can't put Part 4 on vimeo and dailymotion, I'll re-edit the video and hopefully there isn't that many copyright problems. I'll do this as soon as I can. =D
And we appear on our new sitcom smashing pumpkins..
I swear, Jimmy looks like he could play as a Tim Burton character
Nude guy is a genius. Best line IMO
hahahaha the "free willy" moment hahaha love the Pumpkins

I didn't know Donald Draper was in the Pumpkins!?!? XD j/k Jimmy! You're an AWESOME drummer! :D
Every moment with this band was a "best moment"
So basically, Jimmy Chamberlin was the only likeable one? 😂
Lol I was thinking the same watching this. They all come across as deuchy at certain times except for Jimmy who is always cool. Billy is pretty funny throughout though.
Weirdos are appealing
THAT FUCKING SIVA PERFORMANCE GOT ME OMG LOL
17:23 James is like "The fuck D'arcy?"
I like your style, Dude.
wow this is my favourite youtube video...
RUDI VÖLLER! Fucking awesome. Football and music nerd culture forever.
Haha excellent, laughed loads watching these. They've all got an awesome sense of humor ;-)
12:36 that run is a mood
I'm getting the video collection for Christmas!

At 5:49 was the audience being rude to D'arcy or what? What were they saying? :(
Also, great videos, thank you for sharing!
Mellon Collie and the Infinite Sadness the piano makes me weep everytime
They were a great band ,,, Darcy was good looking back in that time
hahahaha "baseball city... i think is one of the titles." 5:29
5:40 Billy in the morning
Damn D'Arcy was so beautiful ❤️ i really fall inlove with her
In a parallel world that song wouldn't apply so perfectly.
