I think it must have started when I was around 9 and my brother had Siamese Dream and Mellon Collie, I didnt know who they were but I liked the music. I continued to like them but not take too much notice until I was older, when my Dad randomly got me the Greatest Hits DVD. From then on I was hooked and went a bit crazy, their music is on a different level compared to many other bands and they do what they want to instead of following trends. Jimmy is my main influence as a drummer and I have been lucky enough to meet him on a few ocasions, I have seen Zwan, Billy Corgan, JCC at gigs in London and Smashing Pumpkins recently in Paris.
