Re: The Smashing Pumpkins
They played a surprise warm-up show last night in Hollywood at the Troubadour club. Set looks pretty solid. The few vids are pretty crappy but the band appeared solid.

Re: The Smashing Pumpkins
Pretty funny clip of Pumpkins covering Joy Division's Love Will Tear Us Apart with a typically hammered Courtney Love, Peter Hook and Davey Havok. Apparently this was a pretty unusual, no-frills show with lots of guests that included songs they either haven't played in a while (Snail, Bodies) and first-time covers including Hole's Celebrity Skin and Malibu (with Courtney) and Judas Priest' Breaking The Law(!)

Courtney is fucked up
Re: The Smashing Pumpkins
She'll be in the dead celeb thread soon.

Re: The Smashing Pumpkins
This is beyond atrocious. Really.
I wouldn't expect anything more...or anything at all, from CL. And she met that zero expectation. Just.
Corgi is an utter joke. Insert Uncle Fester quip. It's pathetic.
What's worse that both of the above is Hooky's insistence (of trying) to cash in on the JD legacy - this only detracts from it, and there is no payday for him (which is his only driver, at this point in time).
What a cluster.

People should not be allowed to wear shorts onstage.
Ok, Billy looks silly as well, but at least he's not wearing shorts. Least rock n roll thing ever.
Funny how embarrassed Billy was when CL grabbed his dick

She looks worse than drunk. Jesus. How is she still alive?

Re: The Smashing Pumpkins
Who would have thought 25 years ago that Courtney would come out looking on top
Re: The Smashing Pumpkins
I was at the tour opener in AZ, and while it was a REALLY great show, the thing that bothered me was that it was a massive masturbatory exercise by Billy. Every picture on the screens was him. He kept going up to this tall riser behind the band to lord over the rest of them.
It was basically just Billy taking his last opportunity to play arenas to let EVERYONE know that he IS The Smashing Pumpkins.
Go for the music, but try not to cringe too hard while he spends the whole show visually patting himself on that back.

Re: The Smashing Pumpkins
This is why I remain on the fence about the KC show Thursday. I want to see them but I really don't want to pay Billy's ego to watch a slideshow of his personal photos. Two years ago in NOLA they sounded great but Corgan couldn't get past the lackluster crowd and insisted on bitching about it. Also, this show is at the Sprint Center and I hate indoor arenas.
Decisions.
Decisions.

I'd say don't go.
They were good in 1994. It's 2018. Let bygones be bygones

Re: The Smashing Pumpkins
Like hell she did. You found the worst possible pics of the others and the best possible of Courtney. She generally looks like a plastic surgery nightmare, and is still a drunken trainwreck.clickie wrote:Who would have thought 25 years ago that Courtney would come out looking on top

Yeah, I’m too lazy to go snooping for any, but there are some pretty horrific photos of Courtney from the last decade.Hokahey wrote: Like hell she did.

Re: The Smashing Pumpkins
There, I found a worse one I hope you're happy

Re: The Smashing Pumpkins
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.

Re: The Smashing Pumpkins
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.
