2015 tour
I know dates haven't been announced yet. However, I have a friend who works as a promoter for events at Xcel Energy center in the Twin Cities. For those who don't know, it's a hockey arena. He said someone from Pumpkins management has been in contact with them about a 2015 show. If this is true, Billy has to be nuts. Unless he tours with another big draw, it would be impossible for the Pumpkins to sell out an arena here, let alone draw a significant crowd.
So... speculate a 2015 tour here. I'm guessing Billy will go with the 3,000 to 5,000 seat venues in the end and we'll still get some sweet groupon deals. |

They're playing Soundwave Festival in Australia in Feb/March as one of the four headliners.
No sideshows have been announced, as yet. I'd expect Festival Hall (5.5k capacity) if they did. |

It wouldn't have to sell out. I've seen The Cure and stuff like that in arenas that didn't sell out, they just block off half of the seating with the stage and it works
Anyway I hope this is true bc it's basically down the street from my apartment and I can't be arsed to drive 6 hours to see bolly and the hired hands |

It's funny how Billy is claiming that D4N is the last album and it coincides with the Machina reissue. I guess once the reissues are done then so is Billy. Very strange.
How much would The Killers bass player and RATM drummer charge for touring? I imagine they're not cheap. I can't imagine he can drag around the hired hands for much longer. He doesn't seem to want to add band members anymore but it would be better for him to have consistent touring members. That way they can play a wider variety of songs than what they've been doing so far. |

Billy claims all kinds of things. A year ago he was saying SP was going to be an ensemble and he might not even always be a part of it. Albums are dead, no singles are dead, no one wants albums anymore, here is my new double album within an album, within an album.
You can't read into anything the man says. |

after this cycle, billy is going to take a short hiatus and then start the 3rd phase of Smashing Pumpkins. always working in 8 year arcs. something silly like that I'm sure.
Jeff will be carried over (like jimmy was from the 1st to the 2nd, but eventually leave - all part of the BIG PLAN. |

He just came off of a hiatus, which came after another hiatus (when Jimmy left)...and all he did was start a wrestling league and a tea shop.

He has one of those already covered. Zuzu's pretty much masquerades as an antique shop (i.e. Billy buys crap and then sells it triple the amount).

Think about it tho
In the original lineup Jimmy was fired, D'arcy left(fired?), and then James quit. Then a hiatus and Jimmy came back. SP 2.0 Mike Byrne was fired, Nicole left(fired?), ....now we have to wait for Shredder to quit, and then.... Guys, MIKE BYRNE IS COMING BACK!! |
