This is the lick, and the ensuing chaos, that blew my mind in 1992 when I first heard it, and made me want to be a better drummer. Freakin' Jimmy man!
Honestly, watching live footage of the band from this era just makes me remember that Billy Corgan can fucking shred
Shredding is way over rated! I liked him better when he calmed down a bit, but I have to admit... This is very cool.
Some of those solos are better than on the album. Good shit
@@bdog7723 Yup, he was definitely on fire then lol
One of the most underrated guitarists of all time
Yes, he is one of my favorite guitar players, but I am one was a little much. Unfortunately, his vocals are much more Miss than hit this is another example. They are one of my favorite bands, but his vocals are quite often unlistenable on these live videos.
Billy and his solos have always hooked me.
to me, it's still all about Gish.
even then, Jimmy was the best drummer of his generation. I’ve been in love with his drumming for my entire “musical life”
Danny Carey is superior but chamberlain is top 3
@@davidwile1277 totally different style… I love tool but they aren’t in the same “generation”
I like seeing how much appreciation Jimmy gets in comment sections. As a lifelong drummer and Pumpkins fans, I didn't realize how many people were fans of his playing until I started watching old Smashing Pumpkins recordings and scrolling through the comments. I had always thought he was a more underrated and lesser known drummer, but I'm glad I was wrong lol.
@@davidwile1277 Jimmy is in a universe of his own. What if Danny had played in the Pumpkins and Jimmy had played in Tool?
Dave Grohl, and Jimmy Chamberlain get my votes.

Gotta love the Gish era , but it’s when Siamese dream came out and he heard cherub rock on the radio and knew he was in the making of something big 😊
How can the dummer be so good? Chamberlain is my top 3 drummers.
Hey these guys might be big someday ;)
Was at this show....this was 2 days before I went away to NIU. My buddy Matt worked the door at Metro and occasionally at Double Door (R.I.P) and would always let me get into over 21 shows with my crappy fake ID.
Were pumpkins the opening band for Eleventh Dream Day? That's how I remember it.
I was at the album release party for Gish at metro. Think this was a little early. Loved the 90s metro and Smart Bar. It was crazy to see the bands we saw in such a small venue and the sound on this recording does do it justice. The acoustics in that room were perfect.
Funny to think about, this was 12 years before I was born, the people who were there didn’t know what their were seeing, that they were a part of the history, The pumpkins will always be my favorite band
Some of them knew.
The first I heard of the pumpkins was from a concert review in a guitar magazine in '92. Believe it or not, that's how we used to learn about new music.😉 A few months later, while working and listening to the local college radio station, Gish was played in it's entirety. I was floored and bought the cassette immediately. 😆 I then received the CD for Christmas that year along with a new CD boombox and several other great discs at the time. But, I do also remember telling people to remember the name. Some of us knew for sure 👍
That's an awesome story.@@h85rocks
This is their best album.
I simply don't understand how its not so popular on the fans, its just an incredible and unique mix of genres.
No doubt. Gish is pure genius.
melloncollie
@@Jnels27 second.
Agreed. I don't see how it's really even a debate. Later albums were still good, but they never blew my mind like Gish did.
I wish I was alive to have seen this in person.
It wouldn't have been until the next year, May 1991, that I heard of them and bought the first record.
This is the Pumpkins I want to remember! Billy with hair. Darcy with her long blond mane.
And they just overpowered everyone with Jimmy on drums.
He drove the songs into your skull! As a result they were more powerful than the other bands around.
And the songs were good!
Thanks for uploading this great early show!
Why do you say Billy has "hair", yet D'arcy has a "mane"? Is that sexist?
@@alukuhito OMG! An attack by another Nitpicker!
I’m surprised I have to explain this but here is the reason.
Ready?
I didn’t want to repeat the same word twice. The words hair and mane are interchangeable.
I just tried to use another descriptive word.
That’s all.
So Relax!
I’m beginning to dislike Social Media. People online try to find hidden meanings or messages that aren’t intended or there.
Ridiculous! 👎🏻🦨
@@dynjarren8355 I see. So you unconsciously were sexist, instead of consciously. Got it.
@@alukuhito What? OMG! There you go again. No, I don’t agree. You’re spouting nonsense!
Why don’t you give it up? It’s annoying at this point.
And you’re ruining forums like this where people just make an observation and comment.
And then you pounce on them with foolish accusations!
Ridiculous!
I’m going to block you next. That’s enough!
Bye! Have a Nice life!
But I doubt you will because you Nitpick too much! Nitpickers are annoying!!
@@dynjarren8355 So much for jokes. I'm assuming you're American, and therefore don't see the humour. You've got to take everything so God damned seriously.
Jimmy killed this performance
I much prefer that version of Snail. That was cool.
pumpkins were the opener for this show! i was there. Eleventh Dream Day was the headline.
Eleven who! Funny how all the other bands around them just dissolved into nothingness. Remember the other Chicago bands out at the time? Neither do I because they were all inconsequential and did nothing.
Guzzo Pinc how did you hear about them at this time? I would hear them mentioned in The Reader and word of mouth but that was about a year later.
@@75pdubs I saw them accidentally when they opened for Eleventh Dream Day at the Metro. It was my first time hearing of them...
@@guzzopinc1646 nice surprise! Eleventh Dream Day wasn’t bad for an indie band. I think one of the members Brown was Darcy’s husband.
@@75pdubs Eleventh Dream Day still is putting out records every once in a while. I'd group them with bands like The Replacements and Husker Du --earlier indie punk rock type stuff. Their bass player is Doug McCombs who also plays with Tortoise and Sea and Cake... the band was led by Rick Rizzo who is a great lyricist... They are sort of Chicago stalwarts
In 5 years they would own the world.
In 3.... They owned it when Siamese came out!
damn....loving it...gets better after 25 min in for sure
Sookie sookie!
this video is so magical ❤❤❤❤
Olé, olé, olé olé... Razor!, Razor!
I saw them back then.
That fuckin sht mattered back then man!!
Gish is Corgans masterpiece. Every song flows into the next, not a bad song on this album. Sounds even better live.
Funny how much Darcy and James changed their stage performance over the years. James started to hang his head and hide and Darcy became more mobile and less reclusive.
Shannon Lee is cute.
I believe they started to crawl out of that post punk attitude they had in the beginning. They used a lot of chorus and a clean sound, more delicate I'd say. On this video they seemed to embrace rock as it is, distortion, chaos and etc.
0 dislikes, just outstanding people here
14 idiots since then!
I saw them in Dec in 91 and from the moment the drums kicked in, it was like a small explosion started in the corner of the room and the shock waves hit us and kept rolling over us for the rest of the night. I had only heard a few songs from the album but my mind was split right open!
Lee's Palace?
@@adamcoe actually in San Diego at a place called the Bacchanal but they changed the name to Sound Fx!
There ya go, That's what i want
A really really good sheww
That's the most animated I've seen James. 😂
HES WAS SO FINE
Sookie....
Billy, but you told her you would wear the Pirate shirt!
I didn’t know what I was agreeing to. I COULDNT hear her!
@@Motown222 but I don’t wanna be a pirate
44:54 Lol.😂
Godzilla teen spirit
those arms 💪
1990 haircuts and fashion.
Stone Roses, Charlatans, Ocean Blue, Neds Atomic, School of Fish.
Jimmy Mullet!
They came a long way since this performance, sloppy but the magic is still there. Their Siamese dream metro show is their best live recorded in my opinion
i want him so bad
I love the forced dancing 🤣
Back when Billy allowed James to move on stage.
i love you
Back then his voice was not an instrument
3:21 Billy accidentally stomps on a Lego instead of his distortion pedal
The puffy shirt
But i don't wanna be a pirate!!
Amazing show. Sounds like Teen Spirit at the end there too lol
Was Teen spirit written then?
30 yrs later and I can’t decide: Gish or SD. Rn? Gish. But maybe I’ll see a later video and it’ll be SD.
Wow, Jimmy just obliterating those skins.
Razor sounds a bit like Waiting Room, by Fugazi.
You can almost see D'Arcy and James counting beats.
lots of reverb on that snare…
Well it was 1990. I guess the sound guy thought he was working a White Snake show. But yeah, that was pretty terrible. Jimmy still killed it though. I don't think he's ever had a bad performance.
Maybe they should turn up the snare and add a little reverb?? 😂
Jimmy is a lot like danny Cary from tool.
was this their first show with jimmy?
Nah look at the basement jams in 88
Is Billy wearing the puffy shirt?! lol
What? You don't understand the times, man.
But i don't wanna be a pirate!!
Sound is horrible
Pretty good considering they were an unkown act at the time and Gish wasn't even out, much less fully recorded. Not much effort put into a proper recording unlike later metro shows
Kevin Suggs was booked elsewhere.
what beautiful hair. now it’s just nonexistent
