So I just remembered why the name Robby Starbuck (Owata director) sounded so familiar.. I went to high school with that dude. Once I saw his name I knew the video was going to really suck.

Are you serious?

Yeah man.

What was he like?

Also, where do I go to see Monte's show? Link anyone?

Umm, he was a scenster. I think everyone thought he was gay, or maybe is gay, it has been a while.

Huh, that's odd. Did you ever talk to the guy? Also, Why did BC choose this guy again?

When BC approves of videos/ideas like this video, it really makes me fear for Oceania becuase I start to question his judgement on quality.
You're obliged to pretend respect for people and institutions you think absurd. You live attached in a cowardly fashion to moral and social conventions you despise, condemn, and know lack all foundation. It is that permanent contradiction between your ideas and desires and all the dead formalities...

I've been questioning his judgement since Teargarden began really. Such promise with what they were doing live before it started. Then we get Song For A Son without any emotion... and then 8 pop rock songs and one alternative rock song ruined by awful lyrics. Although it has been getting better and I do actually like most of the songs, it still fails to live up to the hype he gives before any release. So I'm worried his hype and interesting comments will also be leading to another let-down. And yeah, if he thought that Owata video was a good thing for "The Smashing Pumpkins" to do then that just makes me worry more.

What I found scary about TBK is that Billy said he would be working on each individual song to make them the best they could be, yet despite all this work they were all mostly average...

Yeah. He also said that it was going to be psychedelic rock... it's barely rock and it's not psychedelic.

I shouldn't complain too much though. Although I wish it was better (it has no great songs, but most are good) it is fairly good. It's just that SP used to be better than most bands, now they're just in the large crowd of good ones, I think that's what disappoints me.

Great way of putting it. Hopefully Oceania will move them back to greatness.

I think it's the first decent video they made since reforming.

I liked Superchrist. Seeing Jimmy tear that drumkit a new asshole was cool.

i'll watch it just to see the differences, how much of the long vid they kept. and if all else fails, at least my ears got to hear Owata while my eyes bled.

I wonder if Billy has reevaluated the video since the negative fan feedback or if he's sitting back in his seat like "We done a good job boys..." :billy
