I drew this vampire Billy Corgan last year, a month before seeing The Smashing Pumpkins live for the very first time in Chile.

There are not enough words to express how much that concert meant to me, and how their music has shaped not only my aesthetic as an artist, but also helped but also helped through an understanding of my own self. And on that note —the first tear rolled down during Tonight, Tonight.

Happy thirty years to Mellon Collie! The sadness is still infinite, yes, but sometimes I feel like we are in this together. The embers never fade.
