Your Parents at the Pumpkins Driving downtown, I started thinking about why it felt so good to be on my way to see the Smashing Pumpkins. Any regrets I might have are generally missed opportunities. I mean times where I could have gone somewhere new, or taken a new risk, met new people or generally in some way taken the road less prudent. I would rather carry the memories and feelings of a good experience than have the vague satisfaction of swinging a deal to get 5 times what I paid for something.
Businessmen are a dime a dozen.
Experience junkies are, too, but I m too old to change now. Luckily, my wife agrees, and so we re on our way. I ve liked the Smashing Pumpkins music for some years now. I feel what the music says, and the words speak to me, too. I wanted to see them perform, up close at a small venue with reserved seating.
