Can you imagine a Pumpkins tour with Jimmy and James rolled out in a lamer way?
 

I mean honestly...

NOSTALGIA CENTRAL!!! I'm sitting watching a little basketball and every commercial break: "THE SHINNNNNNNNNNYYYY AND OHHHHHHHHHHHHHH SO BRIGHT TOUR" ***insert video clips of Billy rocking out with flowing long hair***

Makes me feel kinda grimy.

Why can't Bildo do anything with a semblance of integrity?

BILLY CORGAN......

JAMES IHA!!!!!.......

JEFF SHROEDER

like come on. Why even advertise that shit? Is anyone supposed to care?

And shame on B0lly for advertising Jeff in front of Jimmy Chamberlin... That is some straight up bullshit. I know it's "in alphabetical order"... But list the original lineup first you bald asshole

if there were ever a thread to deserve the certified Shallowed "ok," it is this one right here

"Come out to see THE SHINY AND OHH SO BRIGHT TOUR "

***don't show any video footage within the past 23 years on the promo***

Honestly... I haven't seen even oldies bands try a stunt like that... Even with GnR, it was all semi-current footage shown on the advert.

COME OUT AND SEE SMASHING PUMPKINS ON THEIR BRAND-NEW TOUR

***showcase a bunch of clips from 25 years ago***

Does no one else see the hilarity in that?

I'm pretty sure billy is gonna wear a wig on the tour to please you.

fuzzyroes yells at cloud thread

fuzzyroes is spot on..

now jeez did I just type that? /me goes to detox

but yeah thread is 100% accurate

The commercials are aimed at the parents who moved on with life after the 90's ended and are zoned out watching whatever sports playoffs, not the forty retards on a message board who are familar with eighteen years of anecdotes about shit no sane person cares about in 2018.

They know nobody gives a shit about anything after 1999. This is an oldies band now.

don't forget about the lamest part: nickelback opening

I'm not your dancing monkey

ok

We are we are we are so young, we're young we're young.

Seriously though, could BC have come up with a worse sounding tour name? Dude quit making little ironic jokes with yourself and actually promote yourself if you don't want people to laugh at you.

Chad will bring the awesome

The laughing hasn't really stopped since 2007 tho.

for real? I don't watch regular tv so I had no idea the commercial marketing for this tour is on this scale. anyone got a clip of what these ads look like?

that explains part of the insane ticket price lololol. egg chicken hmmmm

The NBA network is pumping this spot harrrrrrrddd

holy cow at least it goes with the overall SP marketing rule - break every rule there is, from a yearly changing font of even the band name (which cracks me up every time I see it, isn't the "brand" important to him? - that's branding 101 kindergarten level, you don't change the main font) to total design mishmash to amateur clip editing. nice!

would you shut up.

@Pave Lol I know. I was loaded when I made this thread, but I do get a kick out of how they only feature ancient footage. I've literally never seen a promo for a current tour without at least some current clips spliced in :rofl:

you want them splicing in Oach DVD content? Plainsongs? 20th annaversary with jimmy?
They're expecting idiots who don't know better to buy tickets without doing their research.

Could have shown some footage from the Manson tour at least, as that is the current band sans James.

this is the same clip they're playing on spotify, with my local show subbed in at the end of course

No bald singer in the clip. Billy has to wear a whig to be recognised by the casual fan...
