gabe I and saw the smashing pumpkins tonight at stööniversal citywalk – after driving around for a while, we were lucky to find a space in jurassic parking …
a little vosotros trivia for you … my first rock concert ever was the pumpkins – Mellon Collie and the Infinite Sadness Tour at the Rosemont Horizon in Chicago! my dad took my brother moo-daddy, my friend ceck cennett, and I. epic evening … one might say it launched my music career…
my friend gingger was playing violin tonight and was nice enough to introduce me to billy corgan after the show – i told him the story of my first concert – all he said to me was “1996″
but i wanted more closure than that … on the way out, i walked up to him again and extended my fist for a fist bump … as he reciprocated the bump with a bump-back, i looked him in the eye and said “rosemont horizon” … hell ya
