As promised - here's some stuff >
1. Frank Catalano
says that the shows him and Jimmy played in Chicago
earlier this year have been filmed and not only that but him Jimmy are going back to the studio (
doink) to record even more new music.
2. As part of CIMMFEST - Jimmy will be appearing on a panel entitled "
Live Streaming: From Consumption to Cache" on Saturday, May 3rd at 1:30 - 3:00PM (murica Time). One presumes the panel itself will be live-streamed somewhere, though I can't see mention of it on the festival page. Anyway, this is in addition to Chamberlin's performance in his new band "
Mary Shelly" and their scoring of the classic
Battleship Potempkin.
3. In contrast Jimmy gives Tyson Meade's track
Dusty Come Up for Air some old school bombast. Chamberlin features on 3 of the forthcoming album's 10 tracks.
4. The day you have all been waiting for is here; Jimmy will be heading down to Vic's Drum Shop on the 23rd of April to
celebrate REMO-DAY!
And lastly, following the disappointment that the most recent Smashing Pumpkins'
announcement wasn't the triumphant return of Jimmy to
his throne - in a series of rambling and vague posts, it has become apparent that Billy Corgan is using drum machines to write the parts for the next "
Smashing Pumpkins" album. Here's hoping this 'new' (re: old) approach to demoing yields more interesting results than those of Oceania- "Hey Mike, try and play like Jimmy might ok?"
