1992/06/10 is the best gig SP have ever played
 

for my opening argument please watch this Bury Me:



and this Hummer:



Listen to Corgan scream before the drum break in Bury Me. Or his YEAHHHHHH I WANT SOMETHING NEW in Hummer. Listen to the wonky alt guitar parts and fills in Hummer. Look at the crowd packed in, dancing, smoking, 5 feet from Corgan

I mean this is magic. They're still a small enough band you could see them in a venue like this. SD wasn't even recorded - Corgan and Chamberlin haven't lost their minds from all the pressure. They're just playing their new songs in a tiny club at a practically hometown show

is there an audio download of this gig? SPLRA just lists fruit bat salad as the only source. like a rip of the vid source?

I really hear the influence of Jimi Hendrix in Billy’s guitar playing. Not insinuating Billy is anywhere near him as a guitarist (he certainly isn’t, although he’s a damn good guitarist to be sure) but just the style reminds me of Hendrix.

:idea:

^ care to elaborate?

kapeesh?

yer dad's experienced

i hear he has you (and flaming globes) to thank for that

second from left is some hella weak shit

yes that is truly an ageist photoshop

:rofl:

Rio 96 remains the wildest concert I ever seen by a band.

how can either of these be the best concert when both happened before the existence of Meadow Goats?

HARDTALK with Joey

Is this October or June 1992?

june

i don't think anyone's ever written YYYY-DD-MM

fuzzy has

Is Fuzzy trying to sound like Billy or is he just retarded?

haha bro Billy's just as much with the sheeple as anyone, Pumpkins were ok back in their heyday but you want a real band who hasn't stopped making good music since their big hits? Check out Weezer, man

or something of that nature

"i saw dog eat dog live
they nailed it"
