Prairie Song

"Prairie Song" is a song by Billy Corgan that first appeared at live solo shows during the Zwan era. It was a candidate for the abandoned Chicago Kid album.

I took a break, and decided to play "prairie song," which is a lot easier to play technically. I got myself into the right space, started, and was on a roll emotionally when one of the camera operators shifted in his seat, making a huge squeak that filled the room. I had to stop because it ruined the take. I started over, upset, and started messing up again and again.... I would make it about 45 seconds in and then ! mess up.... I started having a meltdown....
