  I kinda doubt a Saturday in Philly. The Pumpkins usually don't play more then 2 consecutive night.

didn't know that (although really, how many 3+ hours shows in a row can you expect a band to play?!?).  their schedule would allow them to add a thursday show in philly.

[miss pretentious]

i am so obviously not meant to go see them in philly. ticketmaster hates safari. argh. i give up.

[distance]

so explosions in the sky are opening for smashing pumpkins now?

Moderators - this has gone on long enough. Can we lock this punkins nonesense and move on please?
 
 There wouldn't be this much hysteria if Elvis rose from the dead.

i say "woohoo!"  EITS + SP sounds like a great bill.  a little bit of a stretch, sure, but maybe billy is hoping to buy himself some cred by adding EITS to the bill

well, might be wrong there since there is definitely demand for three nights - they're all sold out now.

i didn't realize threads had expiration dates.
 
 "moving on" is a great piece of advice, mankie - but i it appears you don't take your own advice.  is there someone with a gun to your head forcing you to read this or any other SP-related thread?  just ignore them.  sheesh        :roll:        reminds me of people who listen to howard stern just so they could get insensed and call in to complain.

My comment was made tongue in cheek, but some chump always takes the bait.
 
 Howard Stern is soooooo 20 minutes ago by the way.

Is it just me or are the Pumpkins both overrated and dated?    They occasionally rock, but mostly it's some whiny-ass shit they crank out.

that's exactly what a friend of mine said.
 
 i don't know.  i wish i'd known about the eits opening fact BEFORE tickets went on sale.

You pretty much just described 95% of all indie-rock.

You just stole a line from the Rhett book of quotes.
 
 Still, Doctor Doom was spot on with his comment.
 
 Did I do a good job pulling "spot on" from the hipster handbook?

guilty.  sorry, i had few signs to go on... it was hard to tell if you were being old and curmudgeonly, or just being old.  i should have known that you couldn't have been serious - after all, you started yet another unsufferable moz thread (and he's only half as talented as corgan).

[Vas Deferens]

This show was just star studded. Amy Winehouse on bass, Imogen Heap on the keys, and John Cusack on guitars.

AHAHAHA...Ok I knew Jeff looked like somebody famous, I couldnt put my finger on it during the show. He's a dead ringer!
 
 Not sure about the imogen heap comparison...
