Sometimes you just get tired of working with rock stars...especially if you happen to be one. Instead of combing the Hollywood handbook of freelance musicians for new members, Smashing Pumpkins leader and sole remaining member Billy Corgan is putting out the word that the job of timekeeper is open to anyone who can sling a stick. From a press release received at the musically inclined Chicagoist office today:

Auditions will be held Friday, April 10 in Los Angeles for drummers who are looking to play with THE SMASHING PUMPKINS. They should send their background info, photos and performance web links via email only to: pumpkinsdrummer@gmail.com

Who do you think should replace Jimmy Chamberlin?
