Yeah, it's not a stretch considering Chamberlain's been back in the band for a few while now and Iha played a bunch of shows with them last year. Would definitely see them if the opportunity presented itself.

I've never seen SP. I'll definitely go if it's the original lineup, otherwise I have very little interest.

if it's the original four, and isn't a one- or two-off thing i'd have to travel beyond chicago for, i'm for sure in. i never saw the original four as one unit, my first show was in 98, and the brief arising! tour in 99 before d'arcy left didn't come here. that's the primary appeal at this point.
i will literally lol if corgan pulls an axl and makes them play some newer shit they had nothing to do with.

I wouldn't be surprised, Jimmy's played some of those songs already since rejoining.

Meh D'arcy and James are probably already used to playing songs they had no hand in recording

If it's real, it's got the potential to fill the void of losing Cornell
and Chester I guess

2018 is the 25th anniversary of Siamese Dream...a reunion tour centered around that anniversary playing that record is probably the best bet

Would you guys be into it if it's Melissa Auf der Maur instead of Darcy?

Will Corgan be involved? Then, no.

i would. it wouldn't be ideal, obviously, but of anyone to fill the role for a (semi-)reunion tour there isn't anyone else i'd prefer.

Agreed, as long as we're talking about touring. Original lineup would be best but if Darcy is the only one missing, I wouldn't care too much. But if they are going to record a new album together I want the original four.

Was there trouble between Corgan and Auf der Maur? She's a better musician, better singer, got better stage presence and looks far healthier and normal than D'arcy, so yeah, no problem here if she's in. Corgan might be a little miffed that he couldn't then call it the original line-up but I'm sure he'd come up with another angle to promote it.

On a tour that focuses mainly on Machina music, hell yes!

Corgan thinks Cobain would have made their generation's White Album, but never did.
