The Smashing Pumpkins

For those of you who know B, he is probably the BIGGEST Smashing Pumpkins fan in the world. We've gone to about a dozen of their concerts in the past nine years or so. Waited in pouring rain for ten hours in front of Virgin Megastore in LA just to see them play, driven to Santa Barbara, San Diego, LA, and even flew to San Francisco to see them play at the Fillmore. It's true love. So we had the once in a lifetime chance to get a 5 star all-access pass thanks to S and her help!
Here we are waiting in the pit...
Got to be there for the soundcheck!
B couldn't be smiling any bigger! Here we are with Billy Corgan and Jimmy Chamberlin for a photo op and autographs.

Q and A session with them.
We were in the pit, right at the very front. You could not get any closer than we were! We snapped this shot, we were thatclose!
The whole band at the end.
The pass that worked it's magic. 

Pita and her shirt that we had signed just for her by the guys. Hopefully we'll frame it and she can have it on her wall one of these days.

What a killer experience. 
Today is the greatest Today is the greatest dayToday is the greatest dayThat I have ever really known

I want a t-shirt too! Corgan I could be matching! How long do you think it will take for Corgan to fit that.
