The Pumpkins? Man...thats...unreal...just...unreal.

I always thought Smashing Pumpkins were a band that didn't quite "fit" with most of the stuff I like, and it's just so...EXCITING to hear of this...man...

ANd on top of that, I'm makin' the trip to SF...for my first 'Hip show outside of Winnipeg...just makes me all the more excited :jump :jump :jump

i'm still trying to figure out what the best deal of the night was:

a) 12 packs of beer for $8 (god bless america)
b) two for one pints at TGIFs after the show
c) world container cd autographed by the whole band ... $15 each!

Not if it's American Beer....then it would be the equivalent of buying 12 packs of horse piss!

That was witty and insightful :roll:

I prefer Canadien beer too; but that comment is just ridiculous.

Was lucky to attend both nights. 1979 was fantastic especially because it was so unexpected. Had more fun (personally) Fri but the show was better Sat. Gord with the bra...wow

1979 was awesome. After seeing them at the Phoenix in TO and Town Ballroom in Buffalo, I think I perfer seeing them in bigger venues, when you're up front. 18,000 people seems to have more energy then 1000.

The cheapest and most consumed beer in Buffalo is Labatt.
