 LOL

Critically, the Pumpkins always did quite well.  I'm not sure what you're taking issue with here.

i could think of HUNDREDS of bands/artists/composers off the top of my head that have more "acclaimed bodies of work in music history" ... and if you can't, you're crazy

Shut up.  Really?  How long did they play for, 3 hours?

EXACTLY, it was sick.  Silverfuck had a Doors interlude, I think it was The End or When The Music's Over.

2.5 hours was pretty standard in 2000. The band finally stopped having openers because they played so long.

what, playing the first 7-8 tracks of 'i care because you do' doesn't count as an opening band?

Awesome! Glad to see they're still jamming out on Silverfuck. Typically it was "Somewhere over the Rainbow" and some other babbling by Billy.  
 
 I think they played at least 2 hours when I saw them in Dayton in 94 w/ Red Red Meat as the opener.
 
 That setlist makes me very happy!
