Billy Corgan

Number one, you stay with the band, and you've stayed with the band up until really recently.

You guys just toured last year is the time of us taping this.

But secondarily, you resisted the temptation because I'm sure somebody went to you and said, hey, you know, it might be time to jump off the ship if you want.

A lot more money, and it can be about you, and da-da-da-da-da, because we've all been in that...

So I guess what I'm saying in a very kind of amorphous way is not do you regret staying, not do you wish you'd have a solo thing.

It's like, where does that all land for you in 2025, the time we're taping this?

Are you cool with it if you've reached the end of the road with the band, with that group of people?

Like, how do you sit with all that?

Because it seems to me...

And this may be an unfair way to put it.

And again, I'm putting myself in your shoes.

If I'd stayed loyal to my band through the thick and thin, through the great gigs and the bad gigs and the county fairs and the fans wanting to hear Keep On Loving You for the 8,000th time and all of the stuff that only people like us kind of know what that feels like, it's not a bad thing.

It's just a particular type of pressure.

Um, where do you sit with all that?

Are you at peace or, you know, like, cause you don't strike me as somebody who's got any, uh, uh, you know, what's the ax to grind.

Yeah.

Yeah.

And you have six, right?

I love you.

Life is funny that way, though, right?
