R.I.P. Bugg Superstar

[Osceana]

A friend of mine works at a veterinary clinic on the west side. She told me that about three months ago, James brought Bugg in and had him euthanized. He was really old. He was with another guy (i'm assuming his "roommate" that lives in his house here) and was very upset. :codyssad:

[Cool As Ice Cream]

Oh no. :cry: :( :( :( :( :(

Poor Bugg. And poor James too.

He was a friend, a companion, and a dog.

[gangsta puffin]

bugg's been rumoured dead more times than i can count.

though I can personally confirm that he was alive and well in let's see... 2003 i think, when i asked james how he was doing. james said "ok, but getting really old." so... maybe it's for real this time. :(

[Peter]

:( Where are we going to set up a vigil for Bugg?

[Spaced]

At least the song will always be with us...

[i]

Oh Bugg :(

The Pumpkins mascot has passed away.

[Geo]

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

[The Tourist]

he must have been ultra-old, you can't be sad about such good innings. Still, he was the muse of the group. Perhaps Billy can use one of his skanky cats for inspiration now. Is Lily still alive?

[i]

Yeah I wonder how old he was, must've been ancient. Had a good life methinks.

[kendra]

I am surpisingly only mildly sad, cos yeah, The Dogg must've been super creaky by 2000, let alone 2006, esp cos he was the size of a "smallish prairie-grazing bison," ey James? He was a cutie pie huggabunch :( :heart: I feel sorry for James though. Now he has to hang out with that stupid chihuahuahaua.

[Uhmm]

It's a rebound with the chihuahua.

Poor Bugg :(

[Daysleeper]

This is sad

:cry:

[Chrysantheme]

This is terribly bad news. The James and Bugg duo have been an inspiration for my everyday life since I discovered them in the "Bugg Superstar" video. I feel sad. :'|

[Peter]

first the crocodile hunter AND NOW BUGG????

:cries: worst week ever.

[Mary Alice]

[i]

whats wrogn with my name? :cry:

[The Tourist]

lol, I think it's cos one of my dogs is called Lulu... so I keep getting weird images of her posting messages and stuff. There's nothing wrong with your name, it's just that I apparently have mental problems. :drool: :deboned:

[mc_festus]

aww, farewell bugg. :cry:

[Firaga]

Awww.

Bugg was so cool!

Anyone have any more pictures of him?

[CrypticMourning]

A while back I convinced my roommate to rename her dog from Ladybug to Ladybug Superstar. She thought it was the coolest thing ever. Little did she know that I was just spreading some Pumpkins love. :cheers:

[Iha_Obscured]

RIP Bugg Superstar ! I LOVE U 4ever and ever !

[Porcelina]

I remember the video Bugg Superstar from Viewphoria, James seemed so happy to have him...poor bugg :(

[thisfoolulovesomehow]

NOOOOO that sucks,..... then again, even if bugg was a year old at the filming of vieuphoria (which he obviously wasny) he would be 14 now...... so even if THAT report wasnt true, its safe to say bugg is gone ;(

[Firefly]

What breed was bugg again?

[kendra]

Weimaraner mix

[RockOn]

"This bike I ride with Bugg alongside has brought a metaphor for the future. We don't know where we're going, when we'll get there, but we're happy doing it together."

simply beautiful

RIP BUGG SUPERSTAR

On Vieuphoria, James says something along the lines of "We've done a lot of growing together over the past 5 years".... so, that would lead me to believe that Bugg was at least 5 back then and that was what? 1993? That would make Bugg like 19 now. Poor Bugg, he's definitely dead...

[czr]

i think he has a small dog now

[talking_stone]

i think he has a small dog now

D: umm.... how small?

[Netty]

It's small and compact.

[kendra]

lol from both James Iha mods :D

[talking_stone]

:lol: I think i saw James and Siberian huskies or some dog that 's pretty big once
in LICD promo video in you tube.. James was pouring some water for him/her.I 've always thought that is his dog.
whatever kind of dog he has ..i hope it's not shitsu!

a friend of mine had 2 dogs that were brothers that lived to the ripe old age of 20, so dogs can live a very long time...i had a dog that lived to almost 17...poor bugg though

[Uhmm]

dog subject aside...i've always wondered if james applied his own eyeliner.

[kendra]

yes...he's on video doing it for a Smashing Pumpkins show somewhere!

[Uhmm]

very stable hands indeed.

applying eyeliner scares me. i always look more like a character off a tim burton movie :(
