Default Napa show was fire

I’ll post a full review later but it was up there in terms of the 20+ shows I’ve seen.

What's up with the scribble on his forehead? In what kind of reality does it make any sense?

And Jeff must stop taking the lead on MCIS material. Just gtfo Jeff.

"Beautiful" caught my attention: still my favorite SP song. It sounds exactly like I imagine the 2023 Smashing Pumpkins playing the song: no better and no worse. It certainly sounds more convincing than when they tried to play a heavy cut like "Quiet" a few years back. If it's in Jeff's contract that he gets a certain amount of aimless noodling each song, he certainly sounds better on this than doing dive bombs and shit.

That's awesome! So glad you had a good time. I caught some insta live clips of starla and rocket. They sounded amazing.

He was trying to sing it in the traditional style, dropped down an octave, was a bit all over the place.

I know he says and we think he could sing in the old Bolly way anytime but I'm not convinced he can, or not without straining.

And this isn't the hardest song to sing in the Pumpkins catalogue.

No fire detected. Jeff ripping some Slash style leads over Beautiful is a big nope. Go home Jeff. Guy can’t play for the song at all.
