Half of Smashing Pumpkins celebrate anniversary

Blabbermouth reports that the Smashing Pumpkins are going to commemorate their 20th anniversary with some special shows in August and September. Just guessing, but James Iha and D'Arcy probably won't be involved.

In other Pumpkins news, last month they sued their old record label, Virgin Records, reports the Associated Press.

With no current recording contract, the Pumpkins are rumored to be considering a Radiohead / Nine Inch Nails-style move away from traditional CDs, and have hinted that both new and archival material may be made available later this year. Their last album was last year's Zeitgeist, which was... you know... OK.
