Are you implying that's Courtney Love?

Really great show. they played for 3 hours, covered a lot of ground. The three guitar setup does the earlier material a lot of good. Everyone played and sounded fantastic, especially on the deeper MCIS and Adore era tracks.

The home movie slide show crap was only one song. The video segments and costume changes are pretty lame but not awful. Overall, I encourage you go see them if they come to town.

Are you suggesting she's not a cave troll?

I didn't think that woman panda posted is Courtney that's all. I mean where did her tattoos go? Courtney wishes she was that thin. You guys need your eyes checked.

They were good in 1994. It's 2018. Let bygones be bygones
It's worth going though. If your favorite bands were capable of capturing 90% of the magic from their peak, you should go.

This tour is it. This is them capturing 90% of the magic.

Turns out, no one has to go outside.

Tonight's show is apparently being streamed live:

I'm not a fan. The video isn't helping anything. Its on some Kind Heaven level of silliness.

Yeah. I don't understand the Smashing Pumpkins' turn to gothy dance-pop for the past few years. And yet Billy's solo music has been amazing.

Siamese Dream is one of my favorite albums of all time. So I'll never be able to appreciate them completely abandoning their shoegaze psychedelic elements.

Heard these on 6 music the other day. Listened to a few of their songs on Spotify. I like.
