On this day, 21 years ago, Pearl Jam - "Ten" came out
It was August 27th, 1991. Pearl Jam releases their debut album Ten. Nothing happens. Late 1992 rolls around, the album finally reaches the top 200 on the billboard charts after the explosion of Nirvana and the Seattle "grunge" scene. At the time I had never heard Pearl Jam, but hearing the name lots, when a girl in my class asked me what bands I liked, I said "ya know, Pearl Jam and stuff"...

Smashing Pumpkins on Leno/ Me and Corgan's girlfriend..
The Smashing Pumpkins played a song on Jay Leno this past Thursday. Considering all you hear about Corgan being a shithead, I guess that makes sense. I do not want to condemn ol' Billy though, I enjoyed the song that him and three other people played. It is just very hard to accept this as The Smashing Pumpkins with Billy being the only original member. While I do realize that he was the one who wrote everything, and from what he says, former guitarist James Iha and bassist D'arcy Wretzky hardly played on the actual recordings, I still struggle for some reason.
Oh, did I ever mention how I had naked pictures of Corgan's girlfriend?
