Smashing Pumpkins engagieren Sean Evans für nächste Tour

Der “Smashing Pumpkins” Mastermind Billy Corgan engagierte, nachdem er 2010 ein The Wall Konzert von Roger Waters gesehen hatte, The Wall Live Creative-Director Sean Evans für die nächste Tour der Band. Am 3. Dezember 2010 schrieb der bekennende Pink Floyd Fan Corgan, nicht vergessen ist seine Ansprache bei der Hall Of Fame Zeremonie 1996, er spielte dann noch “Wish You Were Here” mit Rick Wright und David Gilmour, bei Facebook:

Billy Corgan: “Seeing a masterwork like ‘The Wall’ performed by great, dedicated musicians reminded me of the crazy dreams i once had; that music, with a real deep intention and spirit behind it, had the power to positively change the world. i am once again inspired to try. Thank you Roger, Dave, …Richard, and Nick! I shall soldier on LOL. Jessica and I went last night to see Roger Waters perform ‘The Wall’, and i have to say as much of a fan of that particular work as i already am, seeing it staged live blew my mind. a really fantastic and memorable performance of an epic body of songs.” 3.12.2010

In einem aktuellen Interview von VMusic mit Corgan verrät er Details über die bevorstehende “Smashing Pumpkins” Tour 2012, die in Australien beginnen wird.

Billy Corgan: “We’re working with the guy who’s been working with Roger Waters on The Wall – he’s doing the graphics for our tour. We’re gonna have a really interesting stage show. It’s more of an experiential thing than just us getting up and playing with a bunch of bright lights.” Interview VMusic 19.4.2012
