The Smashing Pumpkins always put on a great live show. They never play the same arrangements as on their albums, plus throw in some rare gems each time.
The best show I saw them play was at the Tibetan Freedom Concert in Golden Gate Park (San Francisco) back in 1996.
The line-up for the show:
The Smashing Pumpkins, Foo Fighters, Chaksam-pa, Beastie Boys, A Tribe Called Quest, Pavement, Cibo Matto, Biz Markie, Richie Havens, John Lee Hooker, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Rage Against the Machine, Sonic Youth, Beck, Björk, De La Soul, Fugees, Buddy Guy, The Skatalites, Yoko Ono/Ima
The Smashing Pumpkins did an afternoon set that was totally psychedelic. They only played a handful of songs, but each one was extended with jams featuring other songs interweaved. I would love to have a bootleg of that show...
Here is the set list (6/15/96):
* Bullet with Butterfly Wings
* Zero
* Tonight, Tonight
* Fuck You
* Silverfuck
