Finally!!

A moment at least 15 years (perhaps more) in the making is building in my head. It will be hard to contain my excitement as the date approaches. I will be beyond giddy.

I will be seeing the the Smashing Pumpkins play live at the beginning of December. Well, the current incarnation of the Smashing Pumpkins anyway. I never did get to see the original incarnation...the power house band that was relentless in the 90s. I can't quite recall when I became a fan, but it was in the early 90s. I never have seen them live before. This will be an epic moment. I know i'm making way too much of it. Some would just say that it's just a concert. Get over it. Yeah, perhaps. Music is what gives me the feeling of life. And the Pumpkins are a major part of that for me.

Now several years ago I did see a different incarnation of the Smashing Pumpkins...when they were called Zwan. That was a good show. I expect this show to be even better than that! The only thing that could make this even more special is if I were to get the privilege to meet the band. OR better yet, give them a tour of the place i work...that would be awesome. I suppose being an opening band for them would be awesome too. Since i'm not currently involved with that, that will have to wait...

Now...to start thinking about how to plan that evening so that my guest will enjoy more than the show...
