I managed to snag a ticket for last night (thanks challenged!) a few highlights:
1) Super fucking cool.
2) Randomly saw Bags at the bar beforehand, who caught my attention ordering "chilled shitty vodka." Hadn't see her in years and years...great catching up.
3) The rat
4) Walking up the steps and the first thing I see is video of the Jesus Lizard playing the old club.
5) Immediately after getting to thank Seth and shake his hand for the super fucking cool event
6) Immediately after that hearing a group ask "who is that?" in the video. Told them the Smashing Pumpkins. Woman says "Oh, I was at that show! Only like 15 people were there!". And then another ten-ish people all agreed that they were there too. Weird coincidence, right?
For a free event, it was nice to drop close to $200 bucks on beers and merch.
