It's TUESDAY which, as we all know, means CONCERT ANNOUNCEMENTS! So without further adieu....

On June 16, Carnegie of Homestead Music Hall hosts "The Smashing Pumpkins In Plainsong — An Acoustic-Electro Evening." That's right: Billy Corgan and friends will be playing an acoustic-ish set of stuff from the Pumpkins catalogue, plus Zwan songs and solo works. I feel like there's some sort of joke to be made here but, i mean, it's not like I'm NOT going to this. ($39, on sale Saturday).
