mainstays Billy Corgan and Jimmy Chamberlin have been inducted into the 'Rock Walk' in Hollywood.
Speaking to reporters after the ceremony, Corgan admitted he had a difficult time about whether to accept the honour.
He said: "I'm so used to bad vibes, people hating our band and throwing things at us. So it's strange to be honoured.
"I had to think about it. I had to really lay in bed and think, 'Is this a good thing? Is this a silly thing?' I'm really honoured. I'm really touched."
Speaking about former Pumpkins members James Iha and D'Arcy Wretzky, who were not part of the 2007 reunion, he said: "They should be here today. This is part of their legacy too."
