I haven't seen all their TV appearance so there might be a better one, but I saw this for the first time about a year ago just clicking around YouTube, and thought holy shit that's amazing. It's a great song, and a ballsy song to perform on Leno, and Jimmy's drumming is absolutely frenetic, and Billy looks like hes having fun, even though he says he isn't later in the clip. And as far as Billy's outfit, I thought his Machina era costumes were the best.

Even this performance of the song alone is far better, with D'arcy and Kenny:

Nah, I think performance wise the Machina-era version has the edge. Way more attitude.

This is great:

Oh, and obviously this is fucking amazing

I like how the above three stills are all James in the exact same pose.

The later version sounds disjointed. The straight version is way better.

Corgan's Bluff · 10-14-2018, 10:29 AM

This is -by far- the best TV performance:

This is a list of favorite TV performances.
Beside the Kiss concert only two or three songs from the Pumpkins got aired.

Your link only offers the album version.

I kinda think televised gigs are cheating on this thread anyway. In-studio performances!

NovaFritz · 10-14-2018, 09:22 PM

Shame they didn't play this one live more. Who thought that 3 drummers was a good idea for that live formation?

MplsTaper · 10-14-2018, 09:30 PM

Did Corgan's Bluff just out himself as Naked Man?

It would have been good if the percussion parts were written, rather than doing free jazz over Kenny.

Add Garson to the mix and SP was in Zappa territory.

FoolofaTook · 10-14-2018, 10:58 PM

fuck garson. that dude ruined an otherwise awesome live era.

I only want more clicks on my video upload...

I once outed him to be a singer of the band Chumbawamba, Danbert Nobacon, which played at the same stage before. He felt pissed off that the Pumpkins got treated like privileged stars towards the other bands and therefore pranked their performance.
He later also did so at a political convention of the Labour Party with a water bucket attack on a minister.

Most of that show is on the Adore reissue. It’s fucking great. Very much a post-Adore transition gig.

Corgan's Bluff · 10-15-2018, 06:50 AM

"Transition" was a great improvement of the ordinary original Joy Division song.
