Billy and Jimmy have swung open the gates of access for you inquisitive Smashing Pumpkins fans, requesting your questions of the band via video uploads to the Ask A Pumpkin YouTube group. Here, B&J sketch out the ground rules (via BV):

So, who's gonna be the first to ask about Billy's brilliant Best Buy/Target-only bonus track scheme? Clearly neither of these guys...
At first you want to make fun of this one, but by the end, he won us over with that earnest and engaged question/declaration of appreciation. He's like a big, goateed Rudy.

But this one's just annoying.

Seriously, somebody film and upload a question to Billy about his thought process on the five-versions-of-Zeitgeist rollout. We'll be your best friend.
ALSO, denizens of the D.C. area will be psyched to know that the Pumpkins are playing their CD release party on 7/10 at the 9:30 Club. We've been throwing Billy a lot of shit these days, and it's not like he's making it hard to do, but this is a decidedly excellent move on Corgan's part. Thanks to dnmartin for filling us in.
