you know you're an absolute geek if you get slightly misty-eyed (only to be immediately followed with a smile) when there's an interview posted of a crucial figure of the online Smashing Pumpkins community.and maybe that's brought to a whole other level when you actually take time to blog about it. :)
howevs, i'm finding a rush of emotions as i'm going through the quick reading of an interview with the great Eric Agnew on smashingpumpkins.com. Agnew (or 34, to the l33t) more-or-less started the Smashing Pumpkins' fan presence on the web back in the mid-90s. i remember spending hours on Luna back in the day, learning as much as i could about the band that consumed my life during that period of time. i guess that maybe this would be the equivalent of THE DENT for Tori Amos fans.
reading something like this is like going through an old shoebox, filled with clippings and pictures of your past. if you even care at all, these links are for your enjoyment. try to relate (if you dare)!
