I purchased this awesome t-shirt in Aug. 2009 at the Santa Barbra coffee shop date of this bizarre week-long tour in California. The band featured Billy Corgan, newly-hired 15-year-old Smashing Pumpkins drummer Mike Byrne, and a last minute unexpected addition to the tour: Jane's Addiction / Red Hot Chili Peppers guitarist Dave Navarro. Such a strange lineup, used as a chance to break in Mik...e Byrne in a low-pressure setting and to try out tons of new Pumpkins material for the in-progress Teargarden By Kaleidyscope sessions along with lots of fun covers.
Fans (myself included) traveled far and wide to see these shows. This is definitely a collector's item for the dedicated Pumpkins or Jane's Addiction / Dave Navarro fan. Beautiful artwork by Linda Strawberry, who performed with the band at these shows.
There is a large hole in the left sleeve and a tiny hole in the right sleeve, both pictured.
I've listed almost all of my other Pumpkins shirts before this one because it's not a shirt I want to let go of -- but times are tough and I'm preparing for a move, so this one finally has to go!
