i like silverfuck but i think it is a little overrated

diablos did i ever tell you about the time i saw SP, and as we were waiting to be let in we could hear soundcheck (hours before the show) and the band played marquis in spades?

but then they didn't play the song live.... it was during the machina tour (infact, the day they announced their breakup... ) :(

I can't believe they never played Marquis in Spades live.
Download the mp4 FMT... it's completely different than the studio version. Completely different arrangement.

That song is worthless without Jimmy.
Fucking hell, someone give me a time machine and distantmantra's collection of Pumpkins ticket stubs. :cry

They never played The Aeroplane Flies High. Not with Jimmy at least.

They played it pretty much every night for a month or tow during the last legs of the US MCIS tour. No Jimmy, but still.

Silverfuck was a main staple of the band between 1993 and 1997 with extreme variations throughout this period. If you get a chance, find the version from January 1997 from Vancouver, BC. CBC Radio taped the show, so there are fantastic soundboard copies floating around.

I just started listening to SP yesterday and I hate myself for not trying them earlier. But so far I only have Mellon Collie and Siamese Dream :(

I had an extremely unhealthy obsession with SP between 1990 and 2000, which explains why my music nerd score in another thread is so ridiculously high. With all the useless knowledge I have pertaining to the band and the outrageous amount of SP material I own, I haven't even listened to them in about a year. Problem is, I don't think I could ever part with it.

Get Gish next! The lyrics suck, but it's a psychedelic metal masterpiece. A lot of people don't like it because it's "too metal" and not "alternative" enough but that's what makes it GREAT.
