Today in Smashing Pumpkins History: July 02

Lots to choose from again today's history. I've chosen the Kokusai Forum show in Japan from 2000 when Billy came out and played the entire first set with just him and an acoustic guitar. I originally acquired this DVD from someone on the DC++ Smashing Pumpkins Trading Hub which I used to run. It's the same taper as some of the other 2000 Japan videos and it would be amazing to get a better quality version of all of them

🎂 Birthdays

• Happy 57th birthday to the one and only Matt Sweeney!

Today in Smashing Pumpkins History: June 19

---

Alot of shows on this date although I had to pick one and I chose the first Pumpkins show I ever went to which was Shepherd's Bush Empire, London in 2007. Some of us never got to see the original lineup which is maybe what started the obsession as we never thought we'd get to hear a Pumpkins song live. The video footage for this one isn't great but that was cameras back then and I know alot of others were at this one including Pumpkins message board and Smashing Pumpkins DC++ trading hub friends I still keep in touch with till this day. The band had been playing for over 2 and a half hours and on the second encore closed the show with Muzzle
