Smashing Pumpkins - Identify – Live in San Francisco

Smashing Pumpkins - Identify – San Francisco, Live, In Plainsong Tour, 3-25-16, front row, The Masonic. Billy Corgan: Stop! Stop it! Stop Jimmy... Let's try that again. We're professionals, right? Professionals! lol


Other Tidbits:

Billy Corgan: We play in our In Plainsong sets we feature one album every night. In the past, we’ve done… we go to a particular era, is a better way to put it. So we’ve done the Adore era, we’ve done the Mellon Collie, and tonight we feature songs from Siamese Dream. So sit back and enjoy this kaleidoscopic tour..

This was a seated show, though many fans stood, danced or got up to cheer for various portions of the concert.

There were about a dozen extra autographed tour posters left over from the VIP pre-show, and they were given out to the front row fans next to me at the end of the concert, which was nice. Since I went to the VIP and already got one of them, I passed it on to one of my neighbors.

The VIP performance was held in the 'California Room' of the Nob Hill Masonic Center. About ~45 fans were in attendance, which was about 3 times more than there were at the VIP in Concord in 2015 (End Times Tour with Marilyn Manson). Many of the fans recognized each other from previous VIPs and SP concerts. However, none of us could recognize what the first song was...

Fan: Awesome!
Corgan: Eh, it was OK... lol
