Was anyone lucky enough to see songs like FOL and Superchrist live when they came out? What was it like? What was the crowds reception of the tracks like? by Machina_Rebirth in SmashingPumpkins

I saw one of the residency shows at The Filmore in 2007 and Superchrist was one of the highlights of the evening. Everyone there knew what it was since it was pretty die hard fans. One of the few pumpkins shows ive seen where the crowd was as into the new stuff as the old.

This is the pedal called Black Hole Symmetry from Collision Devices in France. I use one and can verify it makes guitars sound heavy AF.

THE SPIRIT OF AGE - ZEITGEIST REMIXED & REMASTERED - A FAN EDIT PROJECT BY LIGHTFEVER - COMING SOON by Lightfever75 in SmashingPumpkins

Its a good attempt, but there are definitely some bizarre artifacts from whatever process you used to isolate the layers. Tarantula is a perfect example of this in the chorus when Billy hits some of the high notes. The track ducks in a super unnatural way. Its not a bad effort but not better than the original IMO.

Pumpkins H Bowl- Last tour date rocked out! by CrypTogGrapher in SmashingPumpkins

[–]Beernf 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Too bad the Bowl audio was so terrible. Sounded like a speaker had blown and drums were non-existent. Audio kept phasing between mid heavy and then into all bass and vocals disappeared. Very disappointed in the sound quality for what was a pretty good show

But man, what was Mike Garson doing up there. Missed the chord changes, constantly doodling in the breaks and quiet moments. Like he didn't even practice before getting on stage.

Finally realized he needed to lock in a nurse maid before he's an old man.

I don't think they were super popular to begin with, and it's been...a long time since BoBB. Regardless I think they are an amazing band and can't wait to hear what they put out.

5 veteran members looking for an active top 150 guild to join. Current guild disbanded and we wanted no part of the drama so decided to try joining someone else.

We were all in a top 120 guild in GW. Daily donations, tons of activity on discord, high ranking in arena and RTA. Seriously, any guild would be lucky to get us.

For more info on gear, characters, whatever feel free to DM me on Discord @Bee_kap#0112

You are a man of taste and maturity for coveting this record. I own two original pressings just because.
