BEGINNING IS THE END FOR PUMPKINS

The soon-to-be-gone band go back to where they started...

Smashing Pumpkins have announced their final ever two shows will take place in their hometown of CHICAGO in a little over a month.

The band will play the United Centre on November 29 and Cabaret Metro on December 2. The announcement came yesterday (October 17) as they prepared to play Angers, France during the final gasps of their farewell European Tour.

The Cabaret Metro has special significance for Smashing Pumpkins as it is the venue where the line-up featuring Billy Corgan, James Iha, Jimmy Chamberlain, and D’Arcy Wretzky first performed on October 5 1988.
