Having listened to a few of these shows now, I highly recommend the one-nighters – St Louis, Las Vegas and San Diego together.

On this one Song for a Son and Gossamer are by far the best I’ve heard.

I have been to 27 smashing pumpkins shows, saw every line-up possible and this was by far the best smashing pumpkins show i have ever seen. The energy projected by the band on every single song was amazing. It shows up in the recordings.

I can't believe the reviews I'm reading for this and some of the other shows... If you people don't understand what the point of these 20th anniversary shows are then you really aren't paying attention to what the Pumpkins are doing right now. I've gotta be almost as tired of explaining it to people as Billy is. They're trying new things, while still trying to give you a little of the old. They're exploring other musical avenues... clearly you people never listened to Hendrix, or Floyd. There are many different types of Rock, and the Pumpkins are exploring every avenue while creating their own along the way. To quote Billy, "It's called Prog people". If you don't like it then go listen to all of their old albums, and don't allow yourselves to grow musically. I on the other hand look forward to the journey ahead and cant' wait to see what further incredible work is going to come of this band. Long live the mighty SP!

Amazing show. I was there and it was one of the best shows I have ever seen. The recordings are good to say the least. It is however sad to see that some people don't seem to understand how lucky they were to have seen such an amazing show. Sadly these ignorant people want to try and relive their own glory days through old Smashing Pumpkins songs instead of moving on (along with the Pumpkins)to new, equally amazing work. Although, the people that walked out and that complained will be the people that say in 25 years to their kids "yeah, I was there and it was the best show ever. They played Gossamer and Song for a son. The show lasted hours. That was right before they became even bigger than they were in the 90's."

These SP downloads are shit to say the least. just noise... everyone notice that they've been playing the same sets for over a month? Real creative bill.

Absolutely one of the worst concerts I have ever attended. Pure crap. I love SP, but this was terrible. If you want to to hear about 2 hours of random awful guitar noise and screaming vocals then this is your album. I do recommend Disarm though. That actually sounded good. Its a shame they played this type of performance in such a wonderful venue.

Simply put: one of the absolute best shows I have EVER been to. The Fox Theatre is a landmark here in Saint Louis and I can think of no place better to see Pumpkins then there. The audio production was beyond heavenly quality, the atmosphere was perfect, and the live performance staggering. Fantastic show, utterly perfect.
