I want to see something from that era.

The Adore box set is on my Amazon wishlist. Will be picking that up soon.

I have all the re-issues to date and Adore is my favorite re-issue. The music is so much more diverse than the other albums.

the new pumpkins song is kinda cool. what a scribe.

Anytime I get bummed out at what a fucking douche Billy has become, I listen to Geek U.S.A. and X.Y.U. back to back, then pick my balls off the ground.

Add Where Boys Fear to Tread and that's a pretty badass playlist.

Also Hello Kitty Kat. That could be my favorite fuzz tone ever.

Pisces Iscariot is wonderful.

Starla is one of my fave songs by SP.

Crush is such a little gem.

Watching their Lolla Chile show....Billy is so fat he kinda looks like Vader withouth the helmet.

I was there until bullet then I left for St Vincent.
I thought it was alright.

Well im sorry Billy; you kicked ass on the lolla show.
He was a in a very good mood; im sure that was a good factor too.

Great setlist; heavy metal machine and united states were highlights.

And jeff is really good.

As a Central Illinois native I'm very partial to this show, but man...such a good show. This is the first appearance BC made in public after shaving his head, they play a bunch of new songs and nail them all, and "Hummer" (second-to-last performance ever, or at least before they broke up) absolutely SLAYS.

I don't have a lot of "concert regrets," but missing that show is one of them. I must have gotten into the Pumpkins no more than a month prior to that show happening. Some kid in one of the older grades at school told me about it the day after it happened. I was 12, so the likelihood of my parents letting me go (or me having the money to go) would have been up for debate, but still -- I saw a lot of awful bands at the Madison, I can't imagine what it would have been like to see the Pumpkins there in their prime. I saw them a year later at Assembly Hall in Champaign -- one short year and they'd left Madison-sized venues well in their dust....

You mean, this show: https://archive.org/details/tsp1996-10-25

I know like 10 people who were at that show but I was living in Oregon at the time. Bah. One of my concert regrets was when they came through Portland on this tour. Had I liked the Pumpkins at the time I would have gone, and it would have been amazing.

Im watching metro 94 for the fifth time this week...god they were fuckin good.
billy was doing everything the other alt rockers like cobain hated at the time.

The new lineup is really really tight. Its weird to see this songs being played with brad wilk or that the bass player is a dude; but they own the material and seem to be having fun; hell billy was smiling and joking all night.

He even brought the band back for an encore with zero.
