If you were paying attention in the last 24 hours, then you know that The Smashing Pumpkins had a welcome blast from the past in Austin last night. None other than dear friend Jimmy Flemion of The Frogs joined us on stage at the Backyard for the 2nd encore.


After the experience, Jimmy Flemion himself had a message he would like to share:
To my dear friends Billy and Jimmy, my heartfelt thanks for last night. I am honored to play with suchexceptional musicians. Your devotion to music has inspired many. Best of luck on the rest of the tour.
Love, Jimmy


Billy Corgan had something to say about the experience himself:
There are few people in the world as talented at Jimmy Flemion. It was great to see the fans embrace him on our stage and end what was a great show with a Frogs all-time classic. Jimmy tore the house down!

Flemion joined Billy Corgan and Jimmy Flemion to play The Frogs' own "I Only Play For Money" and The Beatles' "Taxman" before ending the show with "Disarm" by the Pumpkins themselves.

Jimmy The Frog was trying to play a song and Billy said he didnt like it? What was it? It looked like Billy was a bit stressed with Jimmys playing. He must of been Drunk or High. He couldnt jump off the speaker he climb. It was funny.

lmfao!!!!!!!!!!

Jimmy Flemion sure has changed since the last time I saw footage of him. No more long hair and wings?
He looks like...a serious man
