I stood in the crowd in complete and utter awe all night. This was quite possibly the best show I have ever been to. It was my first time seeing the Pumpkins after being obsessed with them for about ten years. I've read reviews of prior shows to get an idea of what the setlist would be like, so I can say with assurity that the Pumpkins played a special one for us in Atlanta on the 16th.
I was outside when I heard the first few notes of 'Today' so we ran in to our seats 15 rows back center. I'll never forget the feeling i had as we sort of skipped down the isle to the beginning of the song.
That was followed by 'Stand Inside Your Love' then 'That's the Way My love is'. So many high points of the show so here are just a few: 'Tonight, Tonight' 'Cherub Rock' 'Bullet with Butterfly Wings' 'To Sheila' 'Ava Adore' 'Zero'.
The three biggest highlights for me were: 3. When the crowd sang 1979 (Billy was truly impressed with the noise level i think) 2. Shame- came out of nowhere, totally amazing and finally, the best part... 1. Thirty-three!!!!! If there was one song that I was dying to hear and didn't think they would play, it was that. Chills...
A truly magical performance...bravo. I'm thinking about going across the pond in the spring to do it again!!!
