So since I haven't been following much..what's the deal with these shows? Did I hear somewhere that there isn't supposed to be zeitgeist material?

As stated previously, the band will be heading out into the United States for the first time in 2008 during August. This tour will be for fun and will consist of unique sets and songs. Expect this tour to visit mostly smaller-sized venues.

Whereas the August dates will be at smaller venues, the November 20th Anniversary shows will be at large venues. We can confirm the band will be playing in New York, Chicago, L.A. as well as additional cities that have yet to be announced. These shows will focus on the band's history, legacy, and accomplishments over their career.

The Gish era tour will be moved to early 2009 to make way for the 20th Anniversary shows this November. Discussions are still taking place regarding which cities will be played.

Billy Corgan had this to say about the current tour line-up for 2008:
"The August tour is going to be a blast... Expect a very loud and raucous show from us...and we are very, very happy to know we will finally be playing our own shows come November in New York, L.A., and Chicago... The 20th Anniversary shows will be magical... We are already working on lots of surprises"

It looks like it's Iowa's lucky day. If you live there, you won't have to pay the same horrendous prices as those in Hammond did. The price of a ticket for the Davenport show is $38. A far cry from $85!

38 bucks is cheap! That's a good amount of dates listed today!
I can still cross my fingers for my town Minneapolis! Still Davenport is only 5 1/2 hours away

I'm super stoked about KY making the list. Louisville is less than an hour's drive for me.

We'd already discussed splitting the gas cost and driving together before we knew any definite dates.
