From Billboard:

As the July 10 release of their comeback album approaches, the reconstituted Smashing Pumpkins have revealed their fall tour itinerary. The outing begins Sept. 8 at Montreal's Osheaga Festival and will run through Nov. 5 in Nashville. The group is presently in the midst of a nine-show residency in Asheville, N.C., and will also play Live Earth outside New York on Saturday (July 7).

Fans who pre-order "Zeitgeist" through the iTunes Music Store will get first crack at tickets via a Ticketmaster promotion. General public tickets go on sale July 14.

"Zeitgeist" is led by the single "Tarantula," which is No. 2 on Billboard's Modern Rock chart and No. 7 on the Mainstream Rock tally. That song and others from the new album will be played during two separate upcoming performances on CBS' "Late Show With David Letterman," set for July 9 and July 13.

Sept. 8: Montreal (Osheaga Festival)

    looks like they're playing a lot of smaller venue's, i wonder why?
  • stpmattbstpmattb Posts: 956
    They have been out of the spotlight for 7 years. They have to build that momentum before they go trying out an arena tour.

    plus the smaller venues create more demand and they can later use that demand to fill larger arenas (i.e. Chris Cornell's mulitple tours this year)

    They were originally looking at arenas, but I guess they figured that the demand wouldn't be there.

    Where's Chicago? They favored their hometown at times in their first incarnation, and ZWAN had like 5 shows in 5 nights at Metro. The 2nd Coming hasn't played their hometown yet!

    I plan on giving them another chance, but when I saw them in like 1995 they were absolutely horrible. Definately a band that has a lot of studio editing done...

    Dude, if you didn't like them in 1995, well, you probably won't like them now. LOL

    I am pumped about this! I love the small club shows, i hope they keep doing them!!! I'm sure there will be a few arenas soon. I wonder if they can still sell out Arenas???

    Most of the footage I've seen of them was from Siamese Dream and Mellon Collie. I was not a fan of the vocals live, everything else, absolutely.

    Now.....I just saw them on the 24th and 27th, and let me tell you he sounds great now. Maybe because he's not pissed off anymore. Maybe because I was there. I don't know......but I think he sounds much better live now.
    I can't believe they played this :D

    I'd see them again because I love their studio work and I want to give another shot before writing them off as a live band. Could have been an off night or whatever, so I will give them another shot. I just hope their live show has gotten better....a lot better...

    UNless the new album does real well I don't think they can sell out arenas in the US except for some major markets like NYC. I'd rather see any band in a club/theater/auditorium over an arena anyday.

    Guess I'm gonna try for Atlanta. It'll be good to see a concert in the Fox. It's been a while.

    Me too. I've never been to the Fox so that will be cool. They should've booked the Nac though...such an awesome place to see a show.

    I'm with you. I just saw them Sat. for the first time and it was a very good show. Billy played amazingly and the vocals were surprisingly very good. I've heard a few boots where the vocals were not so great from the 90's.

    And I'm so jealous you guys got Aeroplane Flies High! We got Drown which was cool but I would have loved to hear Aeroplane.

    In their defense I've heard a few good boots with decent vocals. Never been as good as studio though that I've heard ;)

    I would not have traded Aeroplane for anything, but I was itching for Drown too! You lucky duck fuck :p Anything at all Gish era would've been nice too. That and Crush I think were all that's surfaced so far.

    Yeah, they have some good boots but it's just not consistent. Their studio work is just in an entirely different league.

    I thought I heard that they did Daydream in Asheville? I really wanted to Frail and Bedazzled. I heard they sound checked it...I would have died to just hear that. Fingers crossed for Atl. :)
