The Smashing Pumpkins have extended their upcoming “In Plainsong” tour, where they’ll perform “an evening of acoustic based music and electronic soundscapes.” Find the extended schedule below. Liz Phair will open on the tour, marking her first U.S. dates in six years.
This week, Billy Corgan also spoke about why the Pumpkins will never perform one of their albums in its entirety, as many bands have done in recent years. “The idea of getting up and playing an album that was never meant to be played live in that sequence smacks of consumerism,” he told Rolling Stone. “That stuff is the dregs of the music business. I have a hard time believing that everybody out there doing it really wants to do it.” He also claimed that “millennials love Siamese Dream,” which surprised him because “no one’s harder on the millennials than me.” Billy! The youths are ready to love you, if you’ll love them.
