Smashing Pumpkins Bullet With Butterfly Wings - Billy Passes Out Live

[QuarantineThePast]

Haha remarkable how he can say he has no memory of it. He got up almost instantly haha, imagine the confusion when he just found himself on the floor from standing up! Crazy

[1orwell1]

Jesus Christ...Gary Coleman...The Frogs.

[975mas]

Why DID he pass out?

[kibbles1053]

Why can't why like Blink-182 AND Smashing Pumpkins? Why can't we like Metallica AND Slipknot? I just don't understand!

[the77punks]

@kibbles1053 cause blink and slipknot suck, you sound stupid.

[kibbles1053]

@the77punks All I meant was why do morons always argue that XXXX band is the end-all be-all best band ever and you can only like one. Why are we arguing over whether Blink or Pumpkins is better, when they aren't in the same genre, and really can't be compared?

[the77punks]

@kibbles1053 it say's comment, so people comment. you are stupid.

[kibbles1053]

@the77punks I'm trying to make more of an existential quandary here, numbnuts. How come no one ever COMMENTS I love Smashing Pumpkins and Blink-182? Everyone who seems to have a damn comment says THESE GUYS SUCK0rz. But why? What's the point? Also, your pistachios are stupid.

[kibbles1053]

@the77punks Also, you look stupid.

[iLikeBillyCorgansBum]

noes!! i cried. im such a sooky bubba. poor billy...but he bloody gets up and carries on...guy has balls

[zerosoma33]

wow, and he gets back up and keeps rocking. the song never stops.

[merocket]

@1111news lmao

[AppleOracle]

i can't believe you get all this coverage on People Magazine and other gossip rags just cause you fake fell on your ass.

having said that, maybe you were still testing if people give a shit.

obviously we do.

[JetBlack7000]

@AppleOracle Can your comment be anymore immature? To make that type of claim that he fell on purpose? I'm not saying that couldn't have been the case, I don't know whats going on inside Billy's head, but to say it as if you walked a mile in his shoes... no one should ever take anything you have to say seriously, ever. People black out for all types of reasons, is the man not allowed to be a human being? He shouldn't be allowed to black out just because immature ppl like you will question him?

[bssalazar]

Ya that happens when you are kicking ass!

[RaiderDan510]

That is knda wierd...he fell, then up again.

[kurtcobain1]

Glad ur alright Billy!!!

[kurtcobain1]

yitzchak13 - ur just plain wrong, completely idiotic comment, if anything its the reverse, blink 182 cannot even come close to comparing to smashing pumpkins interms of musicianship, and by the way palm muting and arpegios aren't that advanced guitar techniques. Learn a little before you post stupid comments. Everyone can have their opinion, but you are just wrong

[rolo2ispimp]

im glad he fell

[Lionelmessi19IG]

@rolo2ispimp and im glad when they put a bullet with butterfly wings in your face.

[rolo2ispimp]

@Lionelmessi19IG boo

[JytingDeath]

@rolo2ispimp I'll be glad when you get hit by a bus. :>

[rolo2ispimp]

@JytingDeath like i said, boo

[iLikeBillyCorgansBum]

@rolo2ispimp go shit bricks man nobody likes a corgan hater, especially NOT ME. i have lynched sooooooooooo many people for dissing him

[rolo2ispimp]

@iLikeBillyCorgansBum im still glad he fell.

[sonoflife74]

if it was as hot as hell in there, like people have been saying, and after a scream like that, no wonder he collapsed. A lack of hydration and oxygen to the head will definitely make you black out.

[AoiSora603]

This was just 2 days before I saw them. I'm surprised he didn't pass out then. I've been to a lot of shows, and I've never been so hot at one as I was at that one. He said he couldn't believe how much energy we had despite the crazy heat though. Yay Billy!

[monkywrench25]

Haha palm muting is really hard to do. Billy Corgan is way better at guitar than Tom Delonge

[charliegray12212]

@monkywrench25 palm muting is one of the easiest things to do on the guitar

[yitzchak13]

the only thing billy corgan knows on the guitar is power chords. blink 182 is wayy better because they do advanced stuff like arpeggios and palm muting

[KingOfOldTrafford]

@yitzchak13 LMFAO! I have been a blink fan more than I have the Smashing Pumpkins, but fuck off! lmao!

I'm pretty sure Billy Corgan is capable much more than chords and I'm sure the Pumpkins have possibly sold more albums than blink. And what's the most complicated thing Tom Delonge has ever written on guitar? Stay Together For The Kids, which isn't exactly the most difficult thing to play in the world. Your comment is as important as Nick Clegg is to David Cameron.

[NosferatuNite]

@yitzchak13 wow your kidding right? If your actually serious try doing a bit of research and lets see umm listening to the pumpkins music, and actually get a good ear for music, I don't really mind blink 182, but you must be tone deaf 

[jpw1993]

@yitzchak13

How about you listen to some of their (either band) music before you say things like that.

You shame me.

[sm40oztofreedom]

@yitzchak13 I love both bands but are you serious? I'm sure you're either under the age of 16 or possibly just stupid.

[badron11]

@yitzchak13

This is the most ridiculous thing I have ever read in my life. Thanks.  If this isn't sarcasm, then I will pray for you.

[markydeeks]

@yitzchak13 search this title!!!! 'Billy Corgan Guitar Solo 1985' forgive the awful hair cut and the over the top wankerey of this clip, but it clearly shows Billy Corgan owning you 25 years ago,, enjoy :P

[corgantron]

@yitzchak13 are you kidding me? Have you even heard a Smashing Pumpkins song before? Billy Corgan has more musical talent in his pinky finger than all the members of Blink-182 have combined.

And palm muting has to be one of the easiest guitar techniques ever, it's nothing to brag about.

[jottysfakeaccount]

@yitzchak13 your a fucking douche

[ummhello123]

@yitzchak13

ahh yes, palm muting and arpeggios, i couldn't do that until i was three years old.

writing a song as good/ classic as bullet with butterfly wings, now that's advanced.

[MeYouDisgust]

@yitzchak13 Palm muting??? are you joking or are you fucking stupid?

[Mikyz12]

Lights have an effect on the brian that few people realize. Next time you see European riot footage, watch the water cannon trucks and see the flashing white light on top. It causes panic and therefore the crowd can disperse.

[budfsu2001]

i was there and it had to have been over 100 degrees in there w all those people. I was sweating my ass off the entire time

[skimkitty]

@budfsu2001 yeah seriously it was soo hott in there!!!

[GoOFiGiRLo8o2]

dem flashy lights triggered something in his brain....awwww hope hes better.

[JenniferOcious79]

Billy C, my little trouper

[jamicortelyou]

@1111news What ever?

[neworleanslady2009]

Maybe it was those lights. They almost gave me a seizure.

[sirmelancholia]

He fell right after letting out that long howl. I'm sure he was just lightheaded a bit, seeing stars, and lost balance. It makes sense to me because he recovered so quickly.

[NotoriousElderly0]

Do you think he fell because the Demon that fired his band and told him releasing a 44-track online album was a good idea escaped his body? We can only hope.

[9thvalkyrie]

not good...

[eclecticshaman]

he probly had a seizure from that power overload right there ...

[tonyg0525]

gotta give him props for snapping out of it and continuing to play lol

[alexdevil8]

@ellamennop rofl

[owhatever]

He fell straight backwards, that wasn't a trip on anything. F*** off already and wish him well; he's accomplished more than any of you ever will in twenty years.

[Koindrank]

I don´t really think that he passed out. He must have tripped.

Cuz if you pass out and get up again that fast you will just pass right out again.

You have to stay down untill you regain the blood pressurein your head or something like that. :)

[yitzchak13]

What an pathetic old fuck. Isn't he like 50? If you want real music, go listen to Blink 182

[Tim8tei]

@yitzchak13

hahaha, nice try

[shadesofdown]

@yitzchak13 Blink 182 real music??? hehe.....maybe compared to what you listen to in Israel.....but Blink 182 is kinda gay man.....and for 14 year old kids.....anywayss

[silverfuck77jpm]

@yitzchak13 HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA you're a typical modern day fool who listens to SHIT pop punk

[C0NTR4l34ND]

@yitzchak13 Jeff Beck

[robwithanr]

@yitzchak13 It amazes me that some people can love one band and hate another, even when they're not all that different. You'll probably say that they are VERY different, but they're really not, especially when looking at the whole spectrum of music and genres. And as for Billy being "like 50", he is 43, Mark Hoppus is 38. Oh, and guess what band Mark Hoppus is a fan of.. Smashing Pumpkins. You're entitled to like whatever you want, but calling Blink "real music" and SP not, that's just ignorant.

[ignite113]

@robwithanr Surely i am reading this wrong, you are saying that Blink 182 arent that different than Smashing Pumpkins??? What in the fact that they both have guitars drums and vocals in their lyrics?

Lyrical content is DRASTICLY different, you are comparing a pop punk band that cant play their instruments for shit and spent the majority of their careers singing about high school and girls to one of the best grunge bands of all time. YOU FAIL!

[CrowValen]

@ignite113 you misunderstood robwithanr's comment. He was defending the Pumpkins not comparing them to Blink. They cannot be compared adequately to Blink, which it seems everyone posting here knows except for yitzchak13, who started the conversation by saying Blink was better. Pumpkins rock, always will, Corgan is just too good of a composer.

[robwithanr]

@ignite113 In no way do I "fail". Try this: Listen to some classical, bossa nova, electronica, dub, (old) jazz, latin, etc etc. THEN try and tell me that SP and Blink are all that different. You'd probably come up with some mundane answer, but in reality, the differences in their music are relatively minor when compared to the differences they have with all other types of music. I don't know how this turned into a Blink-bashing party. We should all just agree that yitzchak is a dullard.

[OohTheHorror]

baaaaaaaaa hahahahahahahhaa

[itsDIM]

Owsum, he just gets back up; also "psssht what crappy fireworks!" is the quote of the month especially along with its context.

[QwikEVO]

I wish people would stop posting videos recorded with a cellphone. It sounds like caca.

[Antimime]

are you people seriously complaining about the quality of the light show based on a phone video? the lights were crazy during BWBW, as one might expect for one of the most popular, hardest, fastest songs that SP plays. i mean, do you watch fireworks on tv and think "psssht what crappy fireworks!"?

[CraigleChrist]

Despite all his rage he shouldnt pass out on stage

[ignite113]

@CraigleChrist hahah dude that comment is gold !!

[Alakzander]

duuuh

[ThomMac777]

And he just gets back up...awesome

[lunagoddess79]

thx for getting this vid! i was at the show & completely missed this!!!!!! he rocked so hard that night!

[tommyroo2]

What a fucking horrible light show.

[xpowerchord12088]

@tommyroo2 It was much better in person.

[lunagoddess79]

@xpowerchord12088 no... the light show sucked & was BLINDING. i was there & was blinded by the strobe lights >.<

[purplejavelin]

he commented on Twitter that he blacked out and has a nice bruise.

Great recovery!

[spikerobishaw]

POWER NAP

[damion6666]

Hope Billys ok :)

[xpowerchord12088]

He fell back into a monitor or some redundancy amp..that's how he got the bruise. He laughed it off with Jeff though and played an amazing show.

[WispierTetrahedrons]

Amazing recovery. That said, at least he didn't wake up on a hospital bed 8 hours later screaming "CAAAAAAGE!" Get well, Billy!

[ashiedroid]

@WispierTetrahedrons hahah that made me laugh

[easternmind]

He passed out right there, probably light headed from the scream. God, I hope he's okay!

[saturnslament]

Oh, man! It wasn't intentional... look at his head shaking like his blacked out.

[nofixettex66]

crowd 'singing' is lame as fuck.

wtf billy, wha happen

[Pissugar]

too old for this shit

[AWM05]

He blacked out after screaming so damn hard. He doesn't remember his fall, but he's now left with a gnarly bruise on his back.

[Samothrace33]

hope he's alright!

[montelds]

the dude is a machine to get up from that so fast
