Really wish Chamberlin was still in the band…might go anyways depending on ticket prices.[/quote]

Wait, what? Chamberlin left? Iha and the bassist never re-joined, did they? So “The Smashing Pumpkins” are Corgan and three random people? Corgan is a douche.[/quote]

Yeah, they have a 20 year old drummer now. Won’t be the same at all.

Corgan is a douche.[/quote]After A Perfect Circle went on hiatus, Iha has been DJing, doing solo work, and, for the past year, playing guitar in Tinted Windows. Read that he wasn’t interested in the SP reunion.

D’arcy and Chamberlin’s drug use got both of them kicked out of SP, though the latter did rejoin the band again prior to its breakup in 2000 and for the first reunion. The former was originally replaced by Melissa Auf der Maur of Hole.

I get that Iha and D’arcy were fed up with Corgan, but I thought Chamberlin would stick with him. Didn’t get stay through the whole Zwan thing?

I guess I shouldn’t expect the good 90s bands to still be around in the same form, but this new Smashing Pumpkins is pretty ridiculous. Oh well, we’ll always have Siamese Dream…

You mean the album that Corgan recorded practically all by himself? Let’s be serious here, Smashing Pumpkins has always been Corgan and three other people.

I’ve never been a fan

Good point PB, but it still just doesn’t feel right that if you go see them live you get Corgan with three random people.

Chamberlin is a bad-ass drummer and he makes a big difference in the band for me.

Paul McCartney coming to Charlotte.

let down

If McCartney is the “big news”… ???

Isn’t Phoenix playing here soon? That should be fun.

[quote=“s9er, post:178, topic:22382”]My guess on the big news is U2[/quote]Had figured this wasn’t it with the announcement of the postponement of U2’s 360 tour in North America until next year due to Bono’s recent back surgery and follow-up rehabilitation.

I was hoping for Justin Bieber.

[quote=“CPA_Niner, post:192, topic:22382”]I was hoping for Justin Bieber.[/quote]August 8th at TWC Arena, but you’ll probably have to get your tix through StubHub!

WTF is Justin Bieber??

Some kid that defintely takes it in the caboose.

Actually I don’t think Corgan can drum at all and used a drum machine. But I get your drift and agree.

In Cary next Friday, I’ll be there…not sure about Charlotte…

Some kid that should enjoy his 15 minutes of fame before he fades away like all the other kid singers.

I’ll admit he had a funny skit with Tina Fey on SNL.

Two good shows at the Milestone.

Beach Fossils - August 21st
Wavves - September 29th

And also HEALTH is going to be at Snug Harbor with Indian Jewelry on June 23rd.

Will I see anyone else Friday or am I the only one who cares?
