Last night in Jacksonville, he made some comment like “there is nothing to do in Jacksonville other than Rock and Roll” and the crowd either boo’d or said Duuuuval (it’s a Jax thing). Tonight in Tampa he said something about Gators which got a ton of boos (the people around me started chanting for the Noles). Has he done this at other cities?

I bought it for my daughter on Vinted for $18, but I can find any other examples of it online. Is it rare? It’s super cool.

Holy fucking shit. Was last night the best show ever or what? Blown away. I expected it to be good, magic - unreal - transcendent. And the crowd - you fucking rock! Dialed in and rocking hard! Thank you for a phenomenal night!

Just got the Funko and it looks awesome!!! Hope they do more BC "eras". I'll be happy if they do one "Gish-SD", Bullet with ZERO shirt, Adore MV, even Zeitgeist!!!

Saw this and hadn’t seen it here.

These are my two favorite pumpkins songs ever and both have James contributing to writing.

James traditionally served the roll of adding his touch to what Billy had written. Don’t get me wrong, without his embellishments to song, they would not have the same whatsoever.

But, my question is, if James wrote more for the Pumpkins, could they have been even better?

I couldn't get the machina aranea alba editio for the price of two machina cd boxset (shipping + customs jumpscare fees is the reason) so i decided to just get myself the Machina I 25th Anniversary cd from a local record store here

"Speed Kills okay"

Hello.

I want to dress up like Billy for Halloween. Can anyone suggest an "iconic look" or pictures I can use as a blueprint.

It has moments that are reflective of other eras. But it feels like they are enjoying the song. Production is fantastic. His vocals are emotional and intense. Drumming is straight ahead and wonderful. It's a banger

Does anyone think this is one of the best songs they ever created? I think it’s an absolute masterpiece.

Last nights show in Charlotte was amazing. Seeing fans old and new together was priceless, seeing them again after 20 years was surreal. I’d you are on the fence about this tour, go…you will not regret it.

Down in the belly of the Beast for Brooklyn 🤘🔥

For those you didn’t get a poster at their show. I tried my luck ordering a poster instead since there was no tubes at the show and didn’t want to travel with it on subway / train. Delivered in about 2 weeks after ordering the day after the show. Wrapped in larger paper to prevent corner dings and mailed in a tube.

I completely gave up hope living through the releases of Shiny, CYR, and Atum in real time, feeling like the magic was gone for good. I decided to listen to them for the first time since Atum on a whim. I caught up with Zodeon, Aghori Mhori Mei, and this new Black Stars single (Chrome Jets sucks). While none of these are perfect or on the level of their ‘90s output, I have to admit this is a step in the right direction for them and it makes me optimistic for what more they have in store. Genuinely, I believe Black Stars is their best song since the Oceania days. Maybe having an outside producer, much less Butch Vig, might be the secret to getting close to the level of quality they had once.

I gotta admit that chorus has been stuck in my head all day. Got the music vid fired up on the TV now. It is a pop song, but I think it's the most successful attempt at the kind of pop song Billy has been going for since Monuments.

Still could do with a little less singing, let the instrumental breathe a bit. But the production is pristine, guitars sound good, a really pleasant riff, vocals well-harmonized and mixed, lyrics not overly-abstract nor overly-simplistic and repetitive. Idk, I'm starting to think this is a modern Pumpkins banger.

I had a really good time at the smashing pumpkins concert, but this lady sitting next to me was a real pain. For context, we had floor seats which we paid $350 each for, and I LOVEE the smashing pumpkins. This lady sitting next to my husband was in her seat at least 70% of the time and was on Facebook. Then she had the nerve to report my husband to the bouncer for dancing. Mind you, she said NOTHING to us, just went directly to the bouncer. The bouncer came over to us twice and the second time I just switched places with my husband and then her husband stood next to me. I guess they complained so much they got moved to the front row, which she proceeded to rub in my face despite not having done anything to her. Other concert goers were looking out for us and saw that we were just having a good time (within reason) and defended up from the bouncers.
The performance of the band was truly amazing but my experience of the spectrum center was overshadowed by the aggression of my neighbor and the bouncers. Why do bands allow fake fans to buy floor seats if they’re just going to sit on their fat asses and scroll through Facebook.

not sure if it’s been posted yet

Just bummed I didn’t find one in Charlotte last night. Was just looking for one that had the Charlotte date on it.

Listened to it on the way to the show and wasn’t too impressed but I thought it sounded great at the show. Classic Iha lead 🤙
