SMASHING PUMPKINS: 'Late Show With David Letterman' Performance Posted Online

July 13, 2007

SMASHING PUMPKINS performed their new single, "Tarantula", on "The Late Show with David Letterman" in New York City on Monday (July 9). Watch the performance at CBS.com.

According to Hits Daily Double, SMASHING PUMPKINS' "Zeitgeist" is poised to sell between 140,000 and 150,000 copies in the United States during its first week of release. This number would put it in a race for the No. 1 slot on next week's The Billboard 200 chart with this week's chart-topper, Grand Hustle/Atlantic rapper T.I.

"Zeitgeist" contains the first new music under the PUMPKINS banner since frontman Billy Corgan disbanded the group in late 2000.

Corgan and drummer Jimmy Chamberlin are the only original PUMPKINS members in this lineup, which introduces new guitarist Jeff Schroeder, bassist Ginger Reyes and keyboardist Lisa Harriton. None of them played on the album, however.

The band will perform 13 shows at the Fillmore in San Francisco later this month and has also announced a major fall tour, beginning on September 8 in Montreal. Tickets go on sale July 14.
