if there is some unwritten rule about not playing classics, well, smashing pumpkins obviously haven't heard about it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! tonight, today, bullet, everlasting gaze, 1979, porcelina, mayonaise!!! i just think the pumpkins cater for the real fans who wanna hear and see something more then just the singles. thats what makes em the best band in the world.
just for the record; no encore = curfew, nothing to do with the pumpkins!
