Second time seeing the pumpkins
chloe russell Pittsburgh, PA, US
The smashing pumpkins are my favorite band, i saw then once at my hometown Ppg paints arena but wanted to see them again. My dad and me drove to indiana to see them and had a great time. i’ve seen them on their tour with green day and i saw billy on his solo tour since and every time is just as good as the first. i hope i can see them again at lolapalooza! love you billy!
This is my project of your bat Strat I love it so much hope you think it’s cool too!

For my first ever DIY project on guitars I chose to do your bat Strat, I loved the bat Strat on first sight and always wanted it so bad so I gave my skills a go and made it I hope you like it I love it so much and I look up to you tons so I figured making this would be the best!

Hay canciones que se convierten en el hogar al que siempre puedes volver. Para mí, la música de The Smashing Pumpkins ha sido esa amistad constante que te abraza en silencio y que nunca, sin importar lo que pase, te deja sola. 🌹✨
Cada vez que pisan un escenario en México, esa conexión se vuelve real y me invade una felicidad que es difícil de explicar con palabras. Gracias por ser mi refugio, mi fuerza y la banda sonora de mi vida. Muchas gracias Billy Corgan por tan hermosas canciones que llegan al alma 🖤 We are Zeros

Tonight, Tonight in Pittsburgh!

I was so excited to win a radio contest to see the travel exhibit of Smashing Pumpkins memorabilia prior to the Pittsburgh show a couple years back. I also got to hear one of my favorite songs “We Only Come Out At Night”. Thanks for the memories! Happy birthday Billy!
The impossible was possible
María Alejandra López Bogotá D.C, CO
Thanks @smashingpumpkins for a night where the impossible became possible, reminding us that a guitar riff has the power to make the heart explode with emotion, and that time is never time at all.
It was an impeccable, moving, brilliant concert, full of stories and unforgettable moments. A lot of thanks to my husband for always standing by me as I chase my dreams. I truly couldn’t have found a better life partner and concert accomplice. Thank you for loving music as much as I do and for diving headfirst into every new, slightly reckless adventure. I love you madly 🫀
Finally, @billycorgan, thank you for the love you showed your audience—you left your heart in every chord.

La primera vez que logré estar en primera fue en cumbre Tajin México 2013, fue tan especial, la primera vez que los vi en vivo fue en el festival zero fest 2008, por supuesto cada que vienen a México no me los pierdo, fui muy feliz verlos de nuevo en primera fila en el vive latino 2026, espero emocionada su regreso.
Strength Through Your Music

Mr. Corgan,
Your art has inspired me to be resilient through the most tumultous time in my life. Seeing that your work has helped me through these challenges, my brother bought me this shirt as a Christmas gift. Your music also opened the doorway to me broadening the horizons as far as musical discovery. Thank you for the impact you’ve left on me as well as others.
Happy birthday, sir.

The SP CD I got this year
Grey Las Vegas, NV, US
My parents had gifted me an import of The Smashing Pumpkins Mellon Collie and The Infinite Sadness (30th Anniversary Edition) Deluxe 4CD and it was a very important gift to me because The Smashing Pumpkins had always been a comfort band to me, whenever things get hard I listen to Tonight, Tonight and it gives me hope that the next day will be a better one, one that I can reflect on the day before. Happy Birthday Billy 🙂

Happy birthday, Billy. Thank you for everything you’ve done for music, which, without you even knowing it, has accompanied me throughout my life and has often saved me from nightmares. May life grant you many more years and may you continue to share that energy that characterizes you with us, in this world that’s a vampire. You’re the best, Billy!
