More on Smashing Pumpkins vocalist Billy Corgan
Corgan and the way he acts on roller coasters has become a long-running meme on the internet.
It all started when a photo was taken of him at Disneyland looking miserable on a ride.
The photo not only made for hilarious memes, but even got a reference in Family Guy.
He was a good sport about it, later sharing a photo of himself smiling at the park, saying he was having an “absolutely miserable time.”
In March, a new meme arrived to continue the saga. It’s a short video poking fun at what the vocalist might sound like on a roller coaster using the Smashing Pumpkins’ “1979,” and you just have to watch it.
