The opening scene of people crammed into a record shop, including people outside with virtually no audio was a snapshot of the magic of the early 90's. Only with hindsight can I look back and realize what a special time this is.
The Record Shop in question was called Atomic Records and was located on the Fashionable East Side of Milwaukee a couple miles South of the UWM Campus. I know because I used to shop there occasionally but somehow managed to completely miss this in store Appearance of the early Smashing Pumpkins! Damn it! I didn’t know about it. And I didn’t know about the second appearance by the Pumpkins at the Milwaukee Rock Club called The Unicorn in 1992 run by a guy named Gus either. Of course not! A year earlier in 1991, Nirvana played the Unicorn! Of course, I missed that show as well. Sadly, I doubt there’s any audio or visual recordings of that show. They were completely unknown then. Well, a handful of people got to see Nirvana up close in a small club and then the Pumpkins the next year also up close in the same club. Lucky 🍀 people! Only a year later did both bands explode world 🌎 wide and I realized they both played shows in my town and I didn’t see them in time. Then in 1993 Nirvana played the Mecca Arena downtown Milwaukee and tickets were only $20. I didn’t go for reasons I won’t get into to my Eternal Regret. I have a recording of the show and it was Amazing! Of course, I thought I’ll catch them next time only to find out later there was no next time. That shocked me and I vowed to not let it happen again so I did finally see the Pumpkins on their 94 Siamese Dream Tour! It was amazing and loud! They must of played at over 120 decibels for sure cause I had to put Some folded papers in my ears plus I could feel the drums on my chest. A lot of girls were singing along to the songs and there was a haze and smell of a certain Herb in the crowd. I know that smell anywhere! I probably got a contact high from the odor. So the crowd was buzzed. The sound waves were pouring over us! Great and Powerful show! There was no encore cause Billy came out and said Jimmy had Sprained his shoulder so he couldn’t do an encore so that was it. It was still a great show but I don’t think anyone taped the Audio or Visual. Too bad cause I wish I had a recording of it. I searched and can’t find it anywhere. Also, I was really not pleased when I found out that Nirvana had recorded early Demos of Nevermind at Smart Studios in 1990 in Madison and the Pumpkins also played some early shows there as well in 1990-91. Here they were the Two Greatest Bands of the Nineties playing gigs and recording only 90 miles west of my location and because they were unknown at the time I had no idea and didn’t know about this until later. I wish time travel were possible as Id know what to do! I’d go back and see every live early show of both bands and then try to get their autographs on their early records! Then buy them some beers and hangout with them and talk to them and try to get to know them a little! And that’s it. I would not harass them or bother them or annoy them by overstaying my welcome. But it would’ve been a cool experience meeting them all! I was So close and yet so Far! Life is Not Fair sometimes! And then knowing what I know now, I would like to go back to Seattle in April 1994 and taken away Kurt’s Shotgun. I’d say to him you can’t have this! No Way are you getting this back! Over my Dead Body! I would have taken it and hid it from him and tried to stop or prevent him from doing what he eventually did. Not in front of me and on my watch! No way, No how! So he’d be alive today and have celebrated his 50 birthday instead of being Dead and Gone. I’d buy him a Birthday Cake and let him blow out the 50 candles! And he’d be looking back at an incredible career and be happy, healthy and retired! And Not Dead! I know I have a good imagination but in my alternate reality and timeline that’s what would’ve happened and not this reality. It would be a good outcome!
Exactly what I was thinking! It's strange to think how the entire music distribution system of that time, which seemed a given, was actually such a fragile thing. The internet at first seemed a boon for indy artists, and it has been great for some folks, but it also killed the bricks and mortar network of record stores, indy labels, DIY venues, and even the major labels stopped supporting small acts. Back when good music couldn't be downloaded, you sought it out, and you showed up to listen and show the artists your appreciation.
Wow! This brings back memories. I was at the Starplex in Dallas for this show and rendition of Hello Kitty Kat. This was the 2nd of 2 days of Lollapalooza.. They played B-Side Pisces Iscariot stuff on the 2nd stage while the Beastie Boys were on the main stage. I lucked into seeing them because I had to run out to the bathroom and heard them in the distance. Ran over and there they were playing for a small crowd. Blew me away. They also jammed with Shudder to Think the day before and James used my pen to sign autographs afterwards. He walked off with my pen. JAMES IHA STOLE MY PEN. True story.
This is great early Pumpkins! The first show is from an in store appearance at the now defunct Atomic Records on Milwaukee’s fashionable East Side! That was a great Independent Record and CD 💿 store! If you liked a band you could find everything you wanted from that band and they would even special order stuff from England or anywhere, if you wanted more. All the rarities and bootlegs, and the US and UK official release of any band all together in one location! God, that was a great store if you were a hardcore fan of anyone. They even had cassette tape bootlegs and VHS Tapes. Then the small stage was from the legendary Unicorn! A very small club in Milwaukee that would feature unknown live bands. Nirvana played there the year before in 1990. Of course, I missed all these great shows! Can you imagine seeing Nirvana and SP up close in a small club? Holy plethora of Riches! Of course, no one knew they were going to be huge the very next year!
@@iditarod4081, Butch Vig worked out of Wisconsin and produced some of their records and I imagine that had a lot to do with it. Also Wisconsin is not that far from Chicago, so there is also that.
@@tHoM0r i lived that full decade with 800 gigs of the best bands around . It got me to a nervous breakdown in 96 since i pushed the limits ....but i regret nothing . It was purely insane
I saw the pumpkins on lollapalooza in 94 and loved hearing Gish and Siamese Dream! Both records are pure HEAVEN! Billy, James, Darcy, and Jimmy doesn’t get better than that! I’m not gonna lie: I REALLY MISS DARCY BEING IN THIS BAND 💔
did he really went bald or just shaved his head? i never seen him "balding"... he had hair one day and then... not. lol. he looked better in the "today" video... just normal sort hair.. haha
@@Gabrielarbizazuluaga the story I got was he shaved it for zero because he just didn’t give a fuck anymore and he was tired of trying to appease everyone
First! Thanks for all these Pumpkins uploads!!!!!!! Its nice to see this older stuff when the band still had an unexplainable sense of beauty in their craft. Also Darcy was really cute.
There's a good look at Billy's stolen Strat at 12:40. He'll probably never find it, as I'm sure someone cleaned the paint off he had personally customized to conceal its origins. It's unfortunate for WPC, but fortunate to anyone how has it and wants $20K!!
WillCorg , muthr fukrs, can't belive it. whoever has it, has a stolen hot rod, theyl get there s bro. im a big Sp fan , got a band of my own no a bassist? cuz i need 1
It was found recently and they didn’t charge him anything. Not $20 grand. So he was lucky! There’s a TH-cam video about it and he looked at the paint job which he did and knew immediately that it’s the Gish guitar 🎸. The entire Gish album was recorded with that one guitar 🎸. It sounds the same as it did then! Amazing! I was hoping it would inspire Gish 2 but no such luck!
I think most fans heard about it when it was first announced in the February 2019 Rolling Stone article. www.google.com/amp/s/www.rollingstone.com/music/music-features/billy-corgan-reunites-stolen-gish-guitar-790482/amp/. Here’s a link to the story on TH-cam with over 1,000,000 views. th-cam.com/video/CyjBDmEcKAE/w-d-xo.html Also here’s a video of it being worked on just after it was found. th-cam.com/video/BcTSDZhUztQ/w-d-xo.html
That version of Dancing in the moonlight is legitimately my favorite thing Corgans ever sang. I've never seen this video, and am surprised it doesnt have the soundboard audio synced to it. Theres a much better sounding version of that show.
James got a lot more solos in the old days... He plays well, but the wailing of Billy Corgan's overdriven strat IS the sound of the early Pumpkins for me.
can't remember which night I went to, but I was at one of those 2 unicorn shows- that was the summer after my senior year of highschool :) Atomic used to have a lot of good in store appearances- I remember seeing Teenage Fanclub there right after bandwagonesque came out.
I have dreams of seeing another 90s Pumpkin show. I wish Billy would just stop the BS and give me what I crave. Melt my face in a 666 long sleeve. Is that so hard? I’ve only been waiting 30 years. No biggie
I was lucky enough to have been a part of the production crew during some of these early shows it was always a treat watching Billy put his wig on behind the curtains before the show! I miss those days.
Lmao he wore a wig I dont think so ..he started out with long hair.. Then got it shorten to his ears Then he shaved it all off like Telly The reasons dont know and probli no one gives a slit...

3:11 Oh god the pumpkin. I saw them play the SoundFX/Bacchanal in San Diego in Dec. '91. A waitress carried a pumpkin above her head and through the crowd to the front of the stage, Billy chuffed, " A pumpkin? Can you be any more fucking obvious?" Can't blame him. What did they expect, that they'd smash it?
@@beanvillen24 But, really, just think about all the crap music back then. I agree that there was amazing music then. That's my generation. Unbelievable music, and tons of it, all the time. Yet, despite that, there was still tons of shit, and unfortunately, most people liked listening to shit regardless of the good stuff available. There is also great music now, but we're too old and lazy to look for it. We rest contented in what we had back then. There is great music, but the internet changed everything, so now there are millions of people putting out music. It's very hard to sift through the hay stack for the jewels of good music.
@@alukuhito I get it and yes there is good music and yes you have to find it, I guess I was referring the time when radio played good music and mtv had it’s different rock shows and you could go to sam goody and touch and read the liner notes, like you were part of a scene, had the posters and t-shirts and wrote your favorite bands on your book bag and book covers, idk i feel like we have lost the personality or the intimacy with music and musicians!
not to be that guy but i prefer their earlier days such as these performances....that bein said i fuckin love Siamese Dream, which may still be considered "early days"...its a masterpiece.
I am not seeing a gradual change , im seeing big change in music style with their first album release , they really did not sound same in earlier live shows

James is a little rascal
Chamberlain is like a superhero. He'll never let you down.
He did let them down,he became a junkie. Thankfully he is clean now. Wish I could say the same about Johnathan Melvoine.
To be honest though being on heroin didn't stop him being an amazing drummer. They only sacked him because the keyboard player died.@boataxe4605
Thank God for Jimmy Chamberlain
Yessir!
My god those were the beautiful days.. i want to travel back in time so bad and live the 80's and 90's again. Screw the present.

WillCorg my thoughts exactly for Dancing in the moonlight! 🤯
This is the first time i've heard "the joker" - what a fun cover! Also "dancin' in the moonlight" is wonderful
Damn can't remember seeing Billy in short sleeves, thanks for the time capsule :)

What I love about James during the early years is that he always used to dress funky.
The Everlasting Gaze oh hey!
They all did,they actively didn't want to fit the "mold"..... I can totally appreciate that.

I can't believe someone brought a pumpkin in the first clip, that took me out bbsnbsbjsb
Thanks for posting these rare older songs, all this material prooves SP were going to be a GREAT band, thanks a lot!

So amazing to see this ❤ and you know I always thought his hair was so beautiful 😍 thank you!!
Billy's got some nice hair.
R i p Billy's locks......😍😢
Man, Billy was so hot back then with those wavy locks
did he really went bald or just shaved his head? i never seen him "balding"... he had hair one day and then... not. lol. he looked better in the "today" video... just normal sort hair.. haha
I think it was thinning really badly. So he just said F it and shaved it.
I think he could still be handsome. He had some good days as a bald dude. He just has to watch his weight.
@@Gabrielarbizazuluaga the story I got was he shaved it for zero because he just didn’t give a fuck anymore and he was tired of trying to appease everyone

their first album was already a masterpiece influenced by Black Sabbath
Oh shit THAT'S Jimmy?

Good Christ does Billy hunch.

Blue video where is James at?
Yeah I didn't see James there either even thou I'm half blind lol
Love their old tunes...
He's sitting - hard to see
The first four songs are from my hometown. I sure miss Atomic Records on Milwaukee’s fashionable east side. Those were the days!
wpc: why you cut yer hair man?
The Joker lmaooooooo
I am not seeing a gradual change , im seeing big change in music style with their first album release , they really did not sound same in earlier live shows
Strange when people post something as 'Rare' and once it's posted it's... not. Posters need smarter titles.
That said, I should offer what I'm talking about: "Smashing Pumpkins - Once Rare, Old Performances. Your Welcome"
Yes, the "Your Welcome" is part of the suggested title. Now, go away.
You want some of this? HUH? Fuck off!
