Smashing Pumpkins, or what’s left of them, played a Record Store Day event in Los Angeles this past weekend. "I used to work at an indie record shop so I'll always have a soft spot for the places where I still go to find the most vital music, whether new or still hidden,” said Billy Corgan.
He also brought his band to Jay Leno’s show last night (April 20), where they performed “Widow Wake My Mind” from Teargarden by Kaleidyscope. To say this isn’t classic Smashing Pumpkins material would be the understatement of the year, but judge for yourselves in the above clip, in which Corgan is joined by an awkward looking set of backing singers and 20 year-old drummer Mike Byrne. And what's up with Leno's hair?
