Living room jam + cell phones = great PR
Barriers and no cell phones = SP 2018.

Netphoria should really be managing this band now.

If the concert was in a living room, they could maybe get 50 people invited tops. It would be like winning the lottery to get invited. Maybe they wanted more than 50 people to get to see the unique opportunity.

And ofcourse they needed barriers. It's in a fucking neighborhood. Someone runs off drunk into a neighbors yard and you could have a lawsuit in hand.

You have to use some common sense. This is not fantasy land.

lol no kidding. It was a cool promotion. It would have been epic to see the Pumpkins in a back yard. Who cares if they had a stage and barriers.

It took me until today to realize the guy fumbled "shuttle" instead of "shovels" and that kind of takes away some of its magic tbh
