Smashing Pumpkins is unique for me! It's very hard to say what this band means to me ... but in any time of my life, no matter whether it is good or bad, Smashing Pumpkins are there ... to give me hope, peace, company, happiness ... I may be very sad or bored ... but as soon as I listen to SP, my sadness disappears ... it's not like Smashing Pumpkins makes my problems disappear, but SP songs assure me I can find a solution on my own ... Smashing is a certainty of one smile in my face and my heart in peace.
Smashing Pumpkins gives me so many things ... SP music fills my heart with happinness and there is no price for this. In my opinion, your music is sublime and perfect. I love you from Gish throughout Zeitgeist era. For me, Adore was a great present and I was very sad because some people didn't see the beauty of it ... but afterwards I understood ... your music is not about money, your music is about compassion, love, peace, and sometimes sadness ... it's about life ... and I love you for this ... Smashing Pumpkins is Smashing Pumpkins ... you make music ... glass music!!! You touch my soul and my heart ... it's the true music!
I've been to only one Smashing Pumpkins show in my life, but I will remember that moment forever ... I had a lot of problems to go to the concert but I made it and I don't have words to express what I felt there ... It's was like a dream ... seeing the Smashing Pumpkins on stage ... "They are real!!!". I listened to them live .. I saw them ... ohh my ... I cried because of happinnes. São Paulo, 1998 ... Adore Tour ... It's was a magic moment to me and still I am thrilled to remember it because I could see with my own eyes how much you are GOOD!!! How much you are wonderful!! Nevertheless, so powerful and good was it that I couldn't believe in my eyes.
Considering this and many others things, I would like to thank you for everything you are!!!
I would like to wish you happiness, success, peace, love and health.
