That’s awesome! Not surprising re: Billy.

I thought I had a cool SP connection but yours is way better. I never met them but one of my first jobs, when I was like 16, was at a small magazine publisher in St. Charles, I think - basic basic late 90s IT. My boss, during my orientation, told me that the last guy in my job was the lead guitarist from the Smashing Pumpkins, but he’d quit on short notice when they got big. Observing by my overall look that I was an aspiring musician, he said drily, “I hope you aren’t any good”.

He needn’t have worried, but I wasn’t very good at IT support either.

Edit: also had a crush on D’arcy, if that didn’t go without saying for a boy of my generation
