Q: Seeing as how Mellon Collie and the Infinite Sadness was so popular, how come
you changed you're style for Adore?
D'arcy: Cause we're stupid.
D'arcy: We really like Australlia, REALLY, really like australlia, i like New Zealand
too.
Reporter: You like New Zealand?
D'arcy: I know that comes as a surprise to you.
Reporter: Which one do you like the most?
D'arcy: I'm not gonna say.
Reporter: Well Australlians make a lot of jokes about New Zealand
D'ary: yeah, i guess you're just jealous aren't you? What don't they have in New
Zealand?
Reporter: Well they didn't have electricity for about a month last winter.
D'arcy: Is this all you can come up with?
Reporter: Well, it's just that there are more sheep in New Zealand than actual
human beings and because all these sheeps pass wind....
D'arcy: i've heard all the jokes, i've heard all the jokes.
Reporter: Well the live stock pass wind so much....
D'arcy: And you know what? The ocean breezes blow it, where do you think they
blow it!??
Reporter: HERE!
D'arcy: YES!!!!!!!!
Reporter: That's why we don't like them.
Repoter: Hypothetical situation; you got someone you want to impress coming
over and they're going to be there in about half and hour at the place that you
two share, who's putting their hand up to cook?
D'arcy: That would be Billy's girlfriend, Yelena.
Billy: D'arcy isn't much of a cook.
D'arcy: I can cook! Are you kidding? don't even get me started.
Billy: Lets just say that she once had this ferrette.
D'arcy: The farette couldn't cook.
Billy: She once had a farette and i went over there once and she served me some
meat and yet the farette was gone. I don't know what happened to the farette
but, boy was that some though meat!
I'd say that's always been Billy's motto--Anything to serve a song. whatever it is
to serve the song, you know. If he has me stand on my head while I'm playing
the kazoo, so be it.
--D'arcy
You write this song, and it sounds exactly like so-and-so. Puff Daddy or whatever.
And you're like "Shit!" now you have to just can it, throw it away.

Reporter: You're gonna play the secret gig on friday....
D'arcy: Yeah, thanks!
Billy: Not so secret now, is it?
Reporter: I'm pretty sure we can tell today, it's a pretty big country.
D'arcy: you know we're going to have to kill you now.
You know, in every dressing room in germany we'd go in, there would be a life
size cut out of David Hasselhoff.
--D'arcy
"I have to be literally out of my body, if i 'come back' for one moment i am sh*t
scared, vomit scared. Billy will be like "why did you f*ck up back there?" and
i'll be like "I don't remember, i wasn't there.""
--D'arcy
Ahhh! hahahahahaha! Jimmy's one legged girl friend! hahahaha!
--D'arcy
"Some people's lives are totally f*cked and they can do nothing about it, you're
lucky you're not in Bosnia now trapped, you've got a lot of nerve just sitting there
wallowing for no reason, you should try as hard as you can to appreciate what
you have. Maybe if you weren't so self-absorbed, if you thought about anyone
else besides yourself you wouldn't be so miserable"
--D'arcy
"Oh, no! These kids are getting younger and younger! Oh no! I'm getting older
and older! Oh no! I'm too old to be doing this. But it's still good and I'll keep
doing it as long as it feels right"
--D'arcy
"I love old movies, and Katherine Hepburn who starred in this one with Carey
Grant, is my idol. She's still alive, yes? I thought so, somebody told me the
other day that she was dead. There's no one I want to meet except her. That's
it"
--D'arcy
"What? Where? Ohhh, it makes people cry."
--D'arcy
"Now, don't ask me any stupid questions."
--D'arcy
"It's just a matter of when - When's the bomb going to explode?"
"Don't be so rough on our kids! We don't pay you to behave like f*cking Nazis!"
--D'arcy
Billy: It was our Titanic song
reporter: Your "My Heart Will Go On"
D'arcy: Oh God. We use that song to pump ourselves up before shows. We like
to replace it with different organs.
Billy: hahaha, "My liver will go on"
reporter: D'arcy, is your hair really that white?
D'arcy: No, do not let your eyes decieve you. The white effect you see is a trick
reproter: If you house was on fire, what would be the first thing you'd grab?
D'arcy: My husband
"I know i'm a good person. I am who I am and I'm not going to do something
just because I'm afraid I should set a good exapmple but...I just go about my
business cause I don't have anything to feel guilty about either."
--D'arcy
"Being in a band is like being married to four people you'd never even want to
date."
--D'arcy
"Don't hate us cause our hockey beat yours!"
--D'arcy to canadians
"You have to have a lot of faith and make all the comprimises and give up a lot."
--D'arcy
"That man can you look you right in the eyes and lie. I guess the contacts help."
--D'arcy about Marilyn Manson
"He wants to be Evan? Oh, he's much cuter than him, his hair is fantastic."
--D'arcy about James
"James just likes the idea of being a rock star. You can tell by the blue eye shadow"
--D'arcy
Q: You are touring the world with Adore--some 14 shows across the planet in a
month. What inspired you to play to the planet in such a short amount of time?
Q: So will any of the unreleased Pumpkins songs ever come out?
Q: You haven't performed anything from Gish or Siamese Dream in over two years.
Are those songs ever going to make a comeback in a live set?
Q: What rumors go around about the band that get back to you?
Reporter: I must mention to you are the first Simpson's character I have ever met.
D'arcy: I was portrayed as a Simpson's character as myself. We didn't actually
get to talk to Homer in the stuido. I'm not complaining, that was great. It was
one of the highlights of our career.
"This is The Jesus and Mary Chain, "You Trip Me Up", from Psycho Candy, my
all time favorite album. I used to arobecize to this album."
"Fliter toured with us in Europe and um, you know, they're not really like, that
good looking, but they're music is pretty good, you know? You have to feel
sorry for them sometimes, but they're music is pretty good and watch the video."
D'arcy: This needs no introduction, This is Suicidal Tendenies--Institutionalized.
James: I didn't understand at first. You pissed me off. I only listened to like, the
first two and a half songs
Billy: D'arcy did have a neon phase though.

A: Well, we went to Disney World and they have this ride. It's called "It's A
Small World". That song gets stuck in your head (singing) It's a small, small world
na na na na na, it's a small world. It's a small world.
A: Maybe it will come out as a B side but we'll have to change the title to something
liek Let Me Give The Universe To You. That goes back to the same thing. When
we went on the ride at Disney, we thought the world was so small. It was a small,
small world and that if it's that small, it's just not enough.
A: I have no idea. I think when we are 80 years old and we have to be put in
a nursing home and we need money. All those songs that we put in a box will
come out then when we need money for the nursing home.
A: Maybe when we're 80. When we need money before we go into the rest
home, we'll go on tour and play them.
A: Well, I've been pregnant five times. The band has broken up I don't know
James has died....twice.
Reporter: what else have you done that's cool like that?
D'arcy: We got to go to the set of the X-Files. That was really cool. We were
just hanging out and David Duchovny would come over and we would talk about
Star Trek. It was good.

James: why doesn't it need an introduction?
D'arcy: I know I said it doesn't but I gave it one anyway because, it deserves one
whether it needs one or not cause it's a great soundtrack from a great movie, Repo
Man.
James: I nver hear it
D'arcy: what???
James: I never even hear this song
D'arcy: Oh, you had to, i used to play it all the time.
James: I wan't listening
D'arcy: Anyway, they had a very large influence on me, and um, hear the song,
watch the video, watch the movie, ah.
D'arcy: I had to seatbelt him in and lock the doors
James: You're over-exaggerating
D'arcy: Maybe a little. I had him by the ear. I was in the driver's seat. I'm always
in the driver's seat.
D'arcy: I did?
Billy: long before the band.
D'arcy: Really?
Billy: Your sister got into a whole thing the other day.
D'arcy: I don't recall.
Billy: I've never seen you in green
D'arcy: this is not true.
Billy: I have seen you in green
D'arcy: Yes, but it was more like, Army green.
Billy: She went through a whole Castro phase.
