THE SMASHING PUMPKINS TOURING THIS SPRING

The Smashing Pumpkins are touring this Spring.  

Calling it the Rock Invasion 2 Tour, which, coincidentally, was the name of the band's 2020 tour that was cancelled, due to the pandemic, this 30 day 18-stop series of concerts finds the now classic rockers travelling all over the United States, along with 3 shows in Mexico City.

This is the first tour that lead singer, Billy Corgan, has undertaken since the December 2021 passing of his father, so it's definitely going to be an emotionally filled set of shows.  Billy has said about his father "My earliest memories are of my father playing music, listening to music in the house, and so all I've ever known is music, and that started with my father.  And then he came around and he became my biggest fan and supporter, and would oftentimes compliment me on my music, my lyrics, my shows."

Although The Smashing Pumpkins are one of the most successful bands to emerge from the 1990s alternative rock and grunge scenes, the band has continued to release albums throughout the 2000s, with their most recent being Cyr, which came out in 2020.
