While they fight for artistic integrity and fall more and more into 1990's obscurity, the Smashing Pumpkins have announced that they will be heading out on a intimate August run and a not so intimate 20th Anniversary tour in November. The tours will sort of serve as a warm-up to that Gish tour everyone has been hoping for, which has now been pushed back to early 2009.

While the intimate August run "will be for fun" according to the band, November's shows will hit larger v... MORE

*Taken from www.partylikesteve.com...   The night of August 16th 2008 will always be remembered as the day the music died for me. It is no mystery that I had been waiting to see the Smashing Pumpkins since I was the ripe age of 12. Through the miracle that is my job, I was able to not only see The Pumpkins on August 16th in Charlottesville, Virginia, but I was also able to float backstage and hear the band interact.   The first words I hear as I walk backstage is "Bill...

now that batmanania is now behind us (and it was awesome!) we can finally start looking forward to the next highly anticipated comic book adapt. of course id be speaking of 'watchmen.' i could tell that the song in the trailer was by smashing pumpkins (or something billy corgan related) but never had heard it before. turns out it was released as a single for the 1997 batman flick (you know, the one with george clooney [you know, the one that sucked]). well, at leas...

I'm surprised I don't see The Garage come up in Google!  At it's peak there were 3 or 4 nightclubs operating in this huge warehouse in Denver.  23 Parrish was a pirate themed dance club with lots of areas to lounge, hang out, shoot pool.  The Garage was the live music venue.  I think my last visit to the Garage was on the night that the first Lollapalooza tour careened into town.  Perry Ferrell was throwing a party at the garage and introducing a new band (you might have h...

I really don't have a lot to say here, other than I'm amazed that nobody has ever posted this song. Smashing Pumpkins' best song, by far, if for nothing else, than for the, as Jack Black would put it, the 'face-melting' solo beginning at 3:09.

Billy Corgan wants more cha-ching. Seems Zeitgeist didn’t bring in the usual big dough for the band. Now Smashing Pumpkins are suing Virgin Records, their home during the release of Siamese Dream, Mellon Collie and the Infinite Sadness, Adore, and Machina/The Machines of God saying the label used the band’s name in promotional deals that hurt the band's credibility with fans. More specifically, the Smashing Pumpkins are pissed that Virgin licensed their likeliness to... MORE

I did not forget about this project, did you? Oh D'Arcy, you crazy chick...I never believed a word Billy said about you until January Y2K... Smashing Pumpkins - Beautiful from Mellon Collie and the Infinite Sadness

The Smashing Pumpkins headline the North stage. The dust had cleared from a highly-acclaimed Saturday night set by headliners The Police, but Baltimore's Virgin Festival was still going strong Sunday morning. Brazilian electro-rockers CSS kicked off the second day at the Pimlico Fairgrounds. Judging by their outrageous costumes and the many balloons onstage, this band clearly brought the party with them. Lead singer Lovefoxxx dazzled the crowd with an eye-popping unita... MORE
