It is best to capitalize topics and to avoid vague titles. “Hi, I’m new” and “Help please” are examples of bad titles.

Well, it's not really the Smashing Pumpkins, it's Billy Corgan, Jeff Schroeder, Mike Byrnen and Nicole Fiorentino, the new Smashing Pumpkins. NOt quite the same.
and since when do we need to add another facebook clusterfuck to our daily lives? What about a real page, eh? Be nice, Mr Carrot.
Nonetheless, I may deign to attend. Either there, or in Manila on the 7th. Hey, or maybe both?

The prizes are a bottle of f*!@#$% SCOTCH and a box of cheap f!@#$#$ CIGARS!

I have them (https://www.facebook.com/VeryAspect.X) on my Facebook so when a new concert is announced I know it immediately. Seems to make sense to me.
And IMHO, The Smashing Pumpkins were ALWAYS about Billy Corgan. That's why people came and went. Cause he is a total ego-centric genius (asshole).

I think the word "genius" is overused when it comes to musicians and athletes.
On the other hand, "asshole" is underused.

Thank you Mr Vegan.
I shall try and book a brace of prime seats.
And Mr Carrot: no, not every one has swallowed the facebook Koolaid. Some of us still have some say over what and who nows what n our lives, and some spare time! Life is not lived fully nor well under a big blue f, after all.
OK, I jsut listened to some of Oceania and it's not bad at all. I'll have to go!
Yes, it is 90% about the Corgan, especially when he gets his gear on.
Which reminds me, I'll have to see a man about a dog in that case.
The prizes are a bottle of f*!@#$% SCOTCH and a box of cheap f!@#$#$ CIGARS!

I never had a chance to see them in the 90's with all the Lollapalooza shows and what not, that era. Definitely interested in seeing them.
