BlowUpTheMoon Posted June 15, 2007 Share Posted June 15, 2007 Saw the Pumpkins when they opened for Jane's Addiction on 23 Nov 1988. I hear they became pretty popular after that. Still have the ticket from that show. Was Jane's the better show? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheWatcher Posted June 15, 2007 Share Posted June 15, 2007 Saw the Pumpkins when they opened for Jane's Addiction on 23 Nov 1988. I hear they became pretty popular after that. Still have the ticket from that show. Was Jane's the better show? By far. Jane's rocked the house. The Pumpkins had been playing for about 6 months before that, and it showed. Billy Corgan and Jimmy Chamberlain were good, but D'Arcy and James Iha were God awful. They got heckled, too. A lot of calls for "Freebird" and such.

311RockFan-migration Posted June 15, 2007 Share Posted June 15, 2007 Really Cool! I only have one problem with the way they are setting up the show. Since they are playing for 90 min for 3 or 4 consecutive days I read where they will be playing different songs on each day. They better play 1979 and Tonight, Tonight.

TheWatcher Posted June 15, 2007 Share Posted June 15, 2007 Who's in this incarnation of the band? Is it the original line-up? Angelo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they are playing 270-360 minutes total, and are only playing songs once, they probably will play every song they ever recorded. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
311RockFan-migration Posted June 15, 2007 Share Posted June 15, 2007 My ticket is for opening night 6/23/07 (Next Sat). What do you think the odds are of hearing them playing these two songs? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ringfinger Posted June 17, 2007 Share Posted June 17, 2007 Yup. Janes is much better. Saw the pumpkins at Lolapalooza on 1993 I believe it was. Billy is stuck on himself, has not much more to offer. Didn't he kick out Chamberlin anyway? Why would they tour together? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Didn't he kick out Chamberlin anyway? Why would they tour together? Yeah, he did. Jimmy was partying with their touring keyboard player and the guy OD'd. Corgan kicked Chamberlain out of the band after that incident. But they kissed and made up once Chamberalin cleaned up. Certain lead singers like have their drummer with them: Corgan & Chamberalin, Perry Farrel & Steve Perkins, etc. Angelo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Weird Paper Posted June 21, 2007 Share Posted June 21, 2007 Not exactly a "comic room" per se, this is the wall of the prepress room at my office. The comic panels were scanned as black-and-white and colored in Photoshop. I then ran the colored layers through a screening filter to get the Lichtenstein effect. (I know they're fairly random.. that's actually what I wanted.) They were printed on smooth vinyl on an eco-solvent printer and applied to the wall with wallpaper glue. People seem to dig it, and it lets us fly our geek flag. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
