Here's the Pumpkins setlist from night one of their mini August tour. I for one think it's awesome, they broke out some VERY rare songs (Eye, Speed Kills, Transformer, Glass' Theme), played some for the first time ever (The Beginning is the End is the Beginning & Again, Again, Again), debuted a new song (G.L.O.W., which has a killer base line) and tossed in a few favorites (Mayonaise & Siva).

The encore featured kazoo's... yes you read that right, kazoo's and an accordian on We Only Come Out At Night. And then of course the cover of Summertime, umm... random!

Set:

* Tarantula
* G.L.O.W.
* Siva
* Eye
* Mayonaise
* Tonight, Tonight
* Speed Kills
* Transformer
* Superchrist
* United States
* Once Upon a Time
* Again, Again, Again (The Crux)
* The Rose March
* Today
* Bullet with Butterfly Wings
* The Beginning Is the End Is the Beginning
* Heavy Metal Machine
* Glass' Theme
* Set the Controls for the Heart of the Sun [Pink Floyd]

Encore:

* We Only Come Out at Night
* In the Summertime [Mungo Jerry]

    I saw them on Tuesday in Louisville and it was a great show. The set really rocked and Billy seemed to be having a great time (especially in the encore). My only complaint is that they have played the EXACT same setlist on each stop of this tour...guess were kinda spoiled.

    A couple of recordings have popped up on archive.org. The 8/8 show sounds great.

    You mean the part that wrote all of the songs and recorded all of the music besides drums on Siamese Dream???

    I have no problem with him changing musicians. I mean how many different musicians has NIN had???
