Smashing Pumpkins - Zero - Live in San Francisco

Описание: Smashing Pumpkins - Zero - San Francisco, Live, Friday 10-12-12, 1st row, Bill Graham Civic Auditorium. Corgan: Didn't we play some shows here at one point? Over at the Fillmore? Just a couple shows, right? Those shows are legendary. So legendary, we never came back. Until now!


Other Tidbits:

Fan: "Hey Billy, can I have some water?"

Corgan: Can you have some water? No, you cannot have some water. That's VIP only. (Laughter)


Indeed.. 2 hours before the show, the band did a special 3-song set with Q&A for the VIPs, about 12 in number. 'I Am One', 'Plume' and 'Starla' were the songs, played in a small room on the 2nd floor of the Bill Graham Civic. They/we also got an autographed tour poster, CD and other miscellaneous SP items.

But according to Billy, "for VIPs you get a water, you get like a... mobile catheter, you get like a... VIP, uh, Taser.." Also, "for $5000, you get to sleep with Mike, $3500 Nicole will give you a tattoo, $2200 Jeff will read a book to you, and I'll tell you what I think of you for free." Nicole to Billy: "Are you still getting air?" Corgan: "Sassy Lassie... Sassy Lassie... (laughs) She's from the East Coast, she can't help it." You can see the funny exchange before 'Song for a Son', to which Corgan also tells a story about how he first played it for his father, and he responded "what's it about?" Song for a son!

Billy Corgan was quite talkative to the crowd this time around, frequently joking with the San Francisco crowd, telling funny stories, playfully teasing his band mates, and of course making light of the VIP experience :P
