Smashing Pumpkins play three hours in Houston

The Smashing Pumpkins returned to Houston July 17, 2018, this time at the Toyota Center, for its somewhat reunited lineup for the "And Oh So Bright Tour." Bassist D'arcy Wretzky did not sign back up for this trek.

And no doubt, that Tuesday, longtime fans said, "Today is the greatest day I've ever known."

Based on the length of the show, it was the summer solstice. The Pumpkins set clocked in around three hours much to the chagrin of the Houston Press.

Front man and fearless band leader, Billy Corgan, started the show off on the stage alone with an acoustic guitar strapped on to sing Disarm. That type of song is not a band's usual opener as it is not a big rocker.

It worked though.
