Smashing Pumpkins leader Billy Corgan has entered a charity raffle to win his friend Courtney Love's hand-written lyrics for Hole song Violet, which was written about... Billy Corgan.
Promising his followers a “very special announcement" at the outset of a video posted on his Instagram account, Corgan shows off his home-printed ticket for the raffle - which is being held to raise funds for the Ellis Park Wildlife Sanctuary in Sumatra, founded by Nick Cave's right hand man Warren Ellis - and says, “Now, it’s made a lot of press this week that this auction’s going off. So, I’ve actually bought my ticket because I’d like to win these lyrics.”
Corgan continues, “I think it’s about a guy I know a little bit about and I’d love to put that on my wall.”
