On Saturday, Toby and I went to see the Smashing Pumpkins at the Wang Theater.
somebody's pics of the performance the night before
It was really good, but whooping fans are annoying. It was also awkward because his fans were there to see Smashing Pumpkins of the 90's, not the current Smashing Pumpkins. Billy Corgan said stuff like "Billy doesn't live here anymore" and "now I'll play a song that you guys will actually like." So in a way, it was kind of sad because here's this artist who has really made it, but his fans really are only interested in his old stuff, so he has to play that part, and he's probably sick of those songs.
Toby said that Bob Dylan had identity issues because of this conflict, and that the Beatles stopped touring at some point because their fans were too annoying about screaming all the time instead of listening to the music.
I wore my fancy Betsey Johnson dress since there is never an occasion for it.
