Amazing how a song or band take you back to what you were doing or where you were at that time. I remember a trip up to Marquette Michigan and swimming in Lake Superior listening to these guys, Toad the Wet Sprocket and Oasis on the radio as we were pulling up to the beach. Is anyone a Pumpkins fan? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VKYY8DxVZHE
Just caught them on a beautiful night in late July or August.
As for Smashing Pumpkins, love the music. Caught them live at William and Marry in the early '90s and they pulled the plug on the show 45 minutes in because someone threw something onto the stage. I ran into a buddy from high school as we were exiting the venue and he stated it was the third time he had seen them and also the longest show as Corgan always threw a hissy fit and walked off stage. I was stunned to hear that it was a regular thing, but even more shocked that this guy would keep spending money to see them for less than 45 minutes each time!
