The Smashing Pumpkins

You are one lucky bastard. I'd do alot to attend a concert with a member of both Hole and The Pumpkins!

EDIT:

Auf der Maur first became friends with Billy Corgan after apologizing for a friend who threw a beer bottle at the band during one of The Smashing Pumpkins' first Canadian concert dates at Foufounes Électriques.

Wow, was this the one you attended? You are a part of alternative rock history, man!

By the way, were you the friend who threw the bottle? :suspicious:

Yep that's the one.

It was an insane night. I don't remember that accident tho. It must have happened really quick.

Here's what I remember.

I remember that the show was on a really small stage, typical bar stage.

A lot of people wanted them to stop playing because they wanted another local band instead. People sitting at the bar didn't like them. Actually a fight between a guy at the bar and a guy who wanted to watch the show happened. Maybe that's when the bottle accident occurs.

I'm not friend with her. She was a friend of a friend that worked in the local music industry. I have met her once again after that, it was for the released of her album few years ago.

The show was at this place (website in construction)

Here's a picture of the place

I was there just last week. I'm hoping to go to the same show, just its a little expensive.

Jack this place is great !

pretty boring music if you ask me..

Chris, we did not ;)
