Pug - Smashing Pumpkins Live

[meniovich]

where is xuxa??? great performance, shit stage!!!

[kultangel2]

Came here for the song, stayed for the bouncing tits on the girl in the background behind Billy with the striped shirt.

[immeohmyoh]

i know i would really enjoy a nice 2hr long SP brazillian groovy jam sometime. i wish they would do it. Also, i think i hear donkey-kong notes the last minute or two of this jam.

[itsatidalwave]

what in the fuck is going on???

[MURILAVA]

Billy was problably thinking: What fuck im doing here???

[yoytubabe]

Fuking fat girls that song is not for dancing

[RandomtasticStudios]

@yoytubabe You can't blame them, it's Brazil. They were tempted to do Capoera from the beat at the beginning, but didn't have enough room. So naturally, they started dancing.

[xyzdtl]

WTF why are the people dancing

[jrw0001]

I love this song, love the pumpkins, but this performance is too much- way too many instruments, too many timbres. Its like a taking a great turkey sandwich and then adding mustard, mayo, catchup, bbq sauce, ranch dressing- what a mess.

[TheRNP93]

@jrw0001 making me hungry bro, would be a delicious mess though :)

[SadPeterPan1977]

@jrw0001

It doesn't quite work in this performance but I've heard some performances of Pug with the same set-up from around the same time and they kick ass. The shitty sound on this video doesn't really help.

[rawkinrich]

Whoever thought that Jimmy was drumming obviously doesn't have a clue.

[demithepyro]

lol, Jimmy drumming an Adore song.

[SooperBeesT]

This is the best live version of this song... Go Billy!!

[TheMayonaise23]

Eu assisti quando tinha 4 anos! É a única coisa que eu lembro antes da escola! lol

Amo demais essa música! I love it so much! *--* ♥

[TheSPumpkin100]

Happy birthday, D'Arcy!

[coquetelmarcelotov]

caralhoooooooooo fico todo arrepiado com essa musica!

[whygodrums10]

This an entire album was such an underrated masterpiece. I just dont think its too good live. Mainly because of that monkey on the drums that ISNT Jimmy.

[dasbox]

I love how it took 3 percussionists for this tour.

Chamberlain is mildly under rated to say the least

[Rapidfire8]

those girls behind kenny need to realise its not beyonce performing xP

[heretoostay]

That crowd sorta bugs me, why aren't they moving? They need to rock the fuck out

[melancholicgaze]

This is just an awesome performance for a song on a underrated album.

[violetextract]

gotta love those kids dancing in the background xD

[darkxslaye]

3 bald men on stage :)

[riei001]

This was a brazilian TV show 90's. The SP played 4 songs or more. Search for "Smashing Pumpkins programa Livre" and watch the greatest mini concert.

[quierosercadaver]

Llego a estar allí y no podría creer lo que mis ojos y oídos están presenciando! Me encanta esta versión de Pug, es mucho más cañera que en el disco.

[spaceorbison]

Strange place to play. Those kids don't know what the fuck is going on.

[ednocondriaco]

Tienes toda la razón, no saben de lo que estaban presenciando allí.

[iran2025]

lol so true, they are so clueless

[badmagick1234]

plus, they really didn't need the percussion army. Kenny woulda been enough

[badmagick1234]

as a drummer, I really do respect Kenny Aronoff's style of drumming, hell look at the video of them playing Ava Adore from this set, it's awesome. I just really hate his appearance, he looks like he's about to go play tennis, not perform with the Smashing Pumpkins. take the stupid goggles off dude.

[BerryBlue2000]

Great song, great perfomance and D'arcy looks really hot in this video

[pierdypierdy]

The SP are fucking amazing!

[united1500]

I like the way he just gives his guitar away and strolls of to shack the crowds hands!!

[rohiogerv22]

Kenny Aronoff is amazing for a studio drummer. Obviously the best in terms of studio drummers. Jimmy could be his own act on drums though. His drumming has a "melody" of its own. Kenny is just really good at doing rhythms and not getting in the way. I think thats the main difference between them.

[aimson]

Here is a quote from Drummerworld: "With a style of playing that combines power and finesse, Kenny was named the #1 Pop/Rock Drummer and the #1 Studio Drummer for five consecutive years by the readers of Modern Drummer Magazine, and in addition has played on over 30 Grammy-nominated recordings."

So yeah, lay off Kenny Aronoff, he's a great drummer and adds an interesting style that you can either like or dislike. Personally, I prefer Jimmy.

[aimson]

the crowd doesn't deserve this performance, amazing

[aliencloak]

One of the best exits I have ever seen. Just give your instruments away and get the **** out. Awesome.

[Anarchistsdontsleep]

God the beginning beat is soo sick.

[TravuhsWree]

Haha well, I don't know about D'arcy or James but Billy definitely didn't give that guitar up, and Kenny didn't give away a whole drum set... I think they were just letting them play... er... hold their instruments....

[ithacasteveo]

he doesn't hold a candle to jimmy. the pumpkins are the greatest band ever, in my opinion. he's lucky to have even graced the stage with them.

[BamBamBadBones]

drummer is possessed, one of the best everr! whats his name?

[spameister]

Kenny Aronoff. He's a mantank.

[zvx490]

Kenny Aronoff-and i think the same-he owns!

[danzigtibia]

the drummer rocks

[jellitunes]

I  LOVE pug... Love it

[todaysthegreatestday]

foi legal esse dia...SP in SP xD

[tomasosores]

Lo mejor!

[mseahorse]

Euro-Cheese drummer XD!

So true, he's quite embarrassing.

[Kidmag10]

who is the Euro-Cheese drummer?? he looks like one of the dudes from Falco.

[chorrohands01]

his name is kenny jones hes a studio drummer he played for several known bands check out his toms he reversed them!

[zvx490]

he's Kenny Aronoff.

[corleonex]

really great, this was the real smashing pumpkins, without jimmy, but what the hell.

[mushashillo]

OMFG THAT WAS AMAZING! !!!!!!

[hedlik]

audience looks like a sthraight A bad trip..gotta agree , mon!..but hell they gave them what to think about\:D

[bosomfondler]

lol

[BillyCorgan777]

The sound of a drummer + 2 percussionists, we shold hear mor of that!

[SaturnFriend]

absolutely beautiful! they're so great that i can't tell what version is better, everytime they play a song is like they were playing a new one

[DanBL0N00]

the crowd acts like they've never heard of the smashing pumpkins, but still a good performance, i like this version better than the studio version

[ihasong]

I luv this song!!

[TheMatches85]

studio is better

[robbootleg]

the girls in the back look so fuckn retarded hahaha

[Georgie17xx]

I love D'arcy's pants

[BloodyRose3000]

WTH is w/ those kids jumping up and down like they're listening to some pop nonsence!!!!

[mzeob]

As Talented as the drummer seems to be, I can't help but point out that all I can hear is the un-melodic "thud" and can not appreciate the actual song or lyrics with this Energizer bunny trying to steal the show.

[eedamnesia]

Yes but perversely it's easily the best version of Pug the Pumpkins ever did. Have a hunt around here and show me a version that even comes close. There ain't one. Sometimes bands thrive on adverse situations and it's the same here. Bit like their last UK show (proper) that they did when they split up. The band were obviously pissed off and played badly for the first few songs. The crowd kept screaming at them and after a bit they clearly picked up their game. End result was amazing.

[TravuhsWree]

I would like to see anyone even try to steal a show from Billy Corgan.

[RazgrizFear]

James Iha has already done that for me.

[Fabinesss]

He looks at people oddly as if asking where the hell are they :D Can´t blame him, people can be interesting anywhere they go.

[Markarianos]

stupid crowd

[EtcEtcAndEtc]

bring back D'arcy and Iha!!!!

They will allways be half of the Pumpkins sound.

Waronker gives it some welly,no doubt, but somehow Jimmy seems to vibe off the vocals better...

Fucking great ending! genius

[elperelol]

seems to me as a religious congregation.....

[chateauxDEbrat]

this version is much better than the studio version. too bad the crowd doesn't feel the song.

[iagobroxado]

well.. I remember watching that on tv when I was 15.. almost 10 years ago! I was a Pumpkins fan its been a couple years aready. But you guys have to understand that most of the crowd there was around this same age and they had never heard of The Smashing Pumpkins before (they pick kids from schools ramdomly and send them in excursions to the show), not even talk about knowing the lyrics of the band's new album!

[Rach2312]

The girl in the dungarees is making me laugh

[44MyChemicalRomance]

This version is better than the one on adore because it sounds alot better when it's faster and with the guitar instead of the keyboard...:)

[lucasmgn]

This is a program of Brazilian tv .. Left the air now is a time ...

Already had many shares as Kiss, alanis, Bom jovi

[tad22k]

note how they say that it's "pug by billy corgan"...not the pumpkins...

[eedamnesia]

All these 'oh it's not jimmy' comments are really incredibly stupid. The Pumpkins fired Jimmy for a while because of the death of the keyboard player and Jimmy's connection to the drugs. This is a matter of public record.

The Pumpkins then had pretty much their pick of world class drummers and as you can see on this clip, Kenny is world class. But then Jimmy got taken back

Whaling on the interim drummer is just stupid - especially when he's this good.

[levey24]

jimmy... wow how u were missed that guy is a nightmare

[JackTheNutsack]

D'Arcy is so pretty. Her stage-appearance always amazes me. I hope she's ok at the moment. I kinda miss her during SP live concerts.

[twilightmind75]

God what a contrast between the crowd and the song.

[LutjeKabal]

lol! Yeah, I thought I noticed something too ^^

[cadaveresquisito]

i think the show os not quite suited to receive a band like the pumpkins.

seem more willing for some Samba or another dancing oriented music.

Well, some of them seem to be enjoying it hard, others are clearly... just hoping for them to be quiet.

[OwrKeeng]

This show makes me hate brazil, fucking assholes.

[cadaveresquisito]

we miss jimmy here, but this one is surely one fucking awesome live dispaly...

I wish I was there !!!

I love this psychadelyc mellow greatly shaped song, one of the albuns finest, and this live version is just amazing.

[TheresonlyoneGwen]

Absolutely stunning, brilliant, electrifying. D'Arcy has a Cliff Burton quality about her.

[Andreeaz]

are billy high or something?

this video is awsome but it´s really freeked out

[cadaveresquisito]

aren't we all high on something ?

[carvalhozz]

pumpkins fuckkkkking rockkkkkkkkkkk!

[elaullidodelwolf]

fucking darcy you are love!!!!!!!!!

[08L1V10N]

wow look at Iha, isn't he amazing

[spgeorgiesp]

omg i can not stand the drummer, with his stupid yellow goggles n his head banging....hes not cool, jimmy is much better....good show and song though, everyone else is great!

[ngaudio021]

hey man dont diss kenny aronoff, hes badass.

[BurtSampson]

Hardly...he was a fucking clown.

[steelcityskull]

Well said! Every live Adore vid I see I wish Jimmy was on drums.

[bopadybop]

this is the wierdest smashing pumpkins video i have ever seen

[FernandoDANTE]

Agreed. This is some pretty weird shit. When Billy gave his guitar to that chick, it was a very "WTF?" moment.

[hatc9723]

der...are they playing some kids barmitzfa

[illastic1]

great tune great performance 5 stars

[MBArkestra]

The girls dancing behind the band are so awkward and out of place that it's actually kind of cool. Great performance, Jimmy or not.

[bmxfreek22000]

It actually doesn't take 3 drummers to play this song. They don't play the song like this all the time with a brazil flavor to it. And Jimmy didn't use the drums the other 2 guys were using.

[PirateMike16]

this is one of the pumpkins' most underrated songs for sure.... hahaha, good call on the 4:18 thing too

[tomasosores]

lo mejor

[Lukeyblink]

lol Pause at 4:18 the girl in the yellow top looks well scared haha, classic corgan screem & Good Song

[Rach2312]

LOL at the girl in the dungarees!! and i really don't like this drummer :( other than that, AWESOME SONG. AWESOME PERFORMANCE!

[reh629]

i love the girls behind the stage dancing.

[loutaylor777]

yeh, it takes 3 drummers to play this song... Jimmy could have played by himself better than these 3 put together

[jovanloveless]

i personally thought this performance was amazing...

the drummer is funny though

[jimzwan]

i hate this drummer

[jjadgemini88]

haha YOUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUURS ALOOOOOOOOOOONE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!!1

[firebomber8]

it would rule to scream at all those kids!

[ETTTG]

you can tell just from billy's facial expressions and body language that he hated that drummer.

[glathebest]

the drummer may also be talented but he's just playing another song! what the fuck is that!!!???

[GFY]

I don't know anything about Aronoff but I assume he's talented, but he really did ruin this song. If the drums were just a little more laid back this would have been great. He just sat there and pounded on the drums as hard as he could-surprised he didn't break them.

[Lookingstone]

*power nod*

[irishie]

lol omf, i can't believe Billy did that, lol,

[jamesey]

kenny is definitely good. it's wrong to say he sucks. Jimmy is just a master and has better chemisty with billy

[jjadgemini88]

before you judge kenny aronoff, check him out on wikipedia. He is extremely talented and skilled

[INNsomniacChamberlin]

Too bad Arnoff looks like a giant dork... I'm glad Chamberlin came back to drum instead of him :)

[MarquisInSpadez]

My sentiments Exactly. I've always hated kenny aronoff, he's a fuckin goofball.

[lumen1012]

hum, i'm brazilian and when i watch this i just get ashamed for that people watching the performance. WHY THE HELL were they dancing the song? That's embarassing ¬¬~ fortunally, their live concerts in Brazil had people rocking out with the pumpkins

[Fabinesss]

Exactly, this is one of those moments we fans are afraid of. This is one of the most akward situations i´ve seen for a band. i know it´s not really the kids fault, but this has no chemistry at all. It is like watching people dancing to Losing my Religion by R.E.M on a disco.

If i was Billy I would have kick and scream my lungs out until i spit someone & crash the guitar & rip my shirt off with a roar until all those dancing girls get the hell out of there ASAP crying.

[TravuhsWree]

They just don't understand Smashing Pumpkins, it isn't entirely their fault.

[narkila]

This is Programa Legal...in brazilian Tv. The kids are just school kids...teens...

[1950sRedAirliner]

That wasn't spam whoever that asshole was.

[TravuhsWree]

Yeah what the fuck.

[Aphrodit3]

Really good live performance of a beautiful song, however, I can't help feeling if Jimmy was on drums they would only need him instead of 3 drummers :p

[MetalReign999]

haha yea right they didnt need 3 drummers thats just the way brazilians r there very tribal and trust me kenny would of destroyed jimmy

[maricc]

do you know who that drummer is? look it up kenny arnoff...hes unstoppable

[Nezaru]

They look to frail to be in a setting with real people.

They just seem so anemic.

[pattyolan]

i especially love the drums and percussion

[pumpkinheadsteve]

Yeah, it's pretty cool...but it's also a testament to Jimmy's greatness that the band needed 3 drummers to replace him.

[DannyDoey]

haha yes! powerful comment

[homemcancer]

The only thing sweeter than popstar charity is the brazilian tv...

Here, let me explain you something concerning the fat 80slookalike samba kids you people noticed. That wasn´t samba, that was Lambada. Early 90´s, man (keep in mind that hype/pop stuff change kinda slowly in the third world). And that wasn´t fat, it was worms, vermin, you know? UN neglect us, our kids doesnt have food, nor medical assistence.

[blanche1984]

hey i wonder if those kids formed bands later on!! love that song, one of the best on adore.

[homemcancer]

I found great that the kids start to look bored and confuse by the end of the song. It probably changed their lives.

[ohdavey83]

fuck kenny arnoff. what a lamer.

[malkaille]

One of the best live song...

Wow!

[smashbrosking6]

why couldnt they sound like this on adore?! it would have been 10 times better

[hkghost]

wow... Im impressed they played on this tv show.

[lumen1012]

i hate myself for being so young that time >_<

~

i love his "obrigado" ahaha...

[venus82]

Me too, I love it when he says "obrigado"

[toolwitshroom]

nothing against ADORE but seriously Gish and Siamese Dream wipe there asses with Adore's liner notes!!

[dekanbackward]

that really sounds like something against adore

[JeSuisSexyBombonek]

we all love Darcy!!

[VeryfarGone]

I think I might have to get the Adore Album next that Billy made...

[iagobroxado]

humm i think they got the guitars back... I remember seeing Billy and James playing those same ones on the Machina tour :)

[iagobroxado]

I remember watching that at afternoon... i was 15 by the time. I also remember them giving the guitars to the girls... now I wonder if they really gave it away, or the roadies came back for it later...

[Ayato3]

o fantastik!!! I LOVE YOU DARCY!!! COME BACK IN THE BAND FOR THE NEW RECORD!

[mrweems]

HELL FUCKING YES.. ADORE IS MY FAVORITE ALBUM!!!

[VeryfarGone]

I'm thinking about getting that one.. I'm not dissapointed in Mellon Collie at all!!!

[ellamennop]

the end is the best!!

[arcith]

that's awesome...how they gave away their instruments at the end.
