Live DC: Smashing Pumpkins Secret 930 Club Show Photos

July 11, 2007 by Svetlana Send to a Friend Send to a Friend

Say what you will about the Smashing Pumpkins and their new, supposed reunion, much maligned by the general press album ´Zeitgeist´ but their 930 Club, supposedly secret, show stirred up some, otherwise dormant, spirits in our fair District.
After much maneuvering and corner cutting, we managed to get Shervin Lainez (of Shervinfoto and all around BYT teacher’s pet) in with a camera to capture it for those of you who weren’t able to purchase tickets in 2 minutes, did not have 200 bucks to give to scalpers or just plain did not care.
And for those of you that were there…relive the Corgan.
Who, apparently does not melt in daylight.

Would you be so kind as to provide an explanation of the (faux) protest?

billy just got to reap the benefits of the immortal kj statement:
“if shervin can’t make you look pretty then you’re REALLY ugly”.

It was a rally for the Pumpkins not a protest (the posters said things like vote yes for the Smashing Pumpkins). I thought it was hi-larious!
BYT, thanks for posting these pics. The show was mind-blowing.
