Three-fourths of the Smashing Pumpkins’ classic lineup will reunite for a North American tour this summer. The trek marks Billy Corgan, guitarist James Iha and drummer Jimmy Chamberlin’s first tour together since 2000, though the band’s original bassist D’Arcy Wretzky will not join the trio.
The tour notably coincides with the 30th anniversary of the Smashing Pumpkins’ formation. During the tour, the band will exclusively play songs off their first five albums: 1991’s Gish, 1993’s Siamese Dream, 1995’s Mellon Collie and the Infinite Sadness, 1998’s Adore and 2000’s Machina.
“This show and staging will be unlike any we’ve ever done, and will feature a set unlike any we’ve ever played,” Corgan said. “For if this is a chance at a new beginning, we plan on ushering it in with a real bang.”
The band kicks off their tour July 12th at the Gila River Arena in Glendale, Arizona. From there, the group will make their way across North America, making stops in Texas, New York City, Canada, California and finishing off the 36-city tour on September 7th at the Ford Idaho Center in Boise, Idaho. Tickets go on sale February 23 at 10 am local time. Check out the video and the rest of the dates below.
