This was before every camera man avoided her and every sound engineer turned her way down in the mix. Go watch SP concert footage and see how shamelessly everyone but her gets face time on stage. It's like cameramen all conspired to avoid anything more than a second here or there. Truly bizarre.

I was there! Halloween 1993... Front row balcony, me and 2 others... After they played, we were backstage hanging with the entire band, host Christian Slater, legends, Sandler, Farley, Hartman, Deuce Bigalow, Meadows, Spade.... I was in the elevator with half the cast, like a fucking dream.... Went to SNL studio right after a JV football game in pouring rain... Corgans guitar has stickers of bats on them for Halloween... I got all 4 autographs on the sleeve of the Gishh album, ON CASSETTE!!!!

I miss these days so much..I was 9 years old when this took place and was really starting to get into music. I was more into the gangsta rap during that time but I really enjoyed songs by Smashing pumpkins, Alice in chains, Pearl jam, Faith no more nirvana etc etc..Now that I'm older I despise modern rap and only listen to 90s rap occasionally but I ADORE the grunge and alternative bands of this era. Wish I had appreciated it more when it was actually happening.

I must be the luckiest bastard in the world. Born in 1961. I remember the Beatles, early years of high school was Disco dancing. Late High School and early college I was there for Punk and New Wave. Early rap in the mid 80's. I was 29 in 1990 at the start of the Grunge movement. Wow. I never realized how much I was enjoying it all until recently. I still seek out interesting music and the picking are getting slim.

Its simpler than that....analog baby. Beta max baby. All broadcasts are on betamax....sure. Knowledge in part to "6 days to air"...imagine all the bs digital filters it goes through bc they condense it into analog to broad cast it via betamax....the audio takes a shit off that alone nvm the mixing and sound checking....thats also on the band to sync up with what snl has to offer.....prime example arcade fire....they give a damn...enough to not sound like shit on snl like most "modern shit acts". Im not even a big fan of theres but they put out a respectable effort that gains my respect....to actually sound check for an hour....bc classic snl respect of playing live etc on snl....vs some hack out there to collect a check and have kids going "the album versions better trust me" to their parents...."cant play live...or do a sound check right" eat shit as far as im concern....ramones always #1 snl and again not a huge ramones fan...just another prime example of "not blowing it on snl" at its best....all those damn mics and band members though with arcade fire ro sound that good....rappers and wanna be rock bands with 3-5 chords of progression will sound exactly like the terrible shit it is im glad

I've seen setups where a band sounded horrible then the next act came out on the exact same equipment and sounded incredible.

I love how Jimmy grabs the drum key to tune his low tom after just ONE song. That guy was (and still is judging by his newer jazz work) incredible. And just as some "extra credit" you can hear how the drums even for live TV are stereo-panned with the low tom hard left. SO that makes the recorded panning musician-orientation instead of audience-orientation in case anyone has some bets to win or lose on that question.

His vocals are always a little rough live, but they're still fun to see. I remember seeing them at Maxwell's in New Jersey back in 1991 at the recommendation of a friend who was living in Chicago at the time. They didn't disappoint. I was a fan from that night on. Gish and Siamese Dream are still a couple of my all time favorite albums.

What made their sound so cool was the wall of sound. You had everyone in the band basically playing the same thing. They would just get behind the root notes and create a rhythm that kept going without any breaks. The rhythm was relentless. It was so different from the rhythm of the 1980's in which the guitarist would maybe do a few downstrokes with his chords and leave empty space all over the place. They would let one chord ring out for too long. So much space. All they cared about was playing their solo. The only thing keeping the groove going was the bass. Rhythm guitar was so shitty in the 1980's. In fact, you could barely hear it in many hit songs from that era. Not so with Smashing Pumpkins. Their rhythm had no empty space. They filled up all of the space. It was really kind of a revolutionary thing. It's almost as if the guitarist were playing the drums with his guitar, if that makes any sense. I started playing guitar in 1992 and Smashing Pumpkins played a major role in the way I play guitar.

lol, cherub rock, probably the loudest D'arcy was ever mixed in the history of this band. and not unpleasant. actually a pretty decent mix overall for a TV show, which were and are pretty notorious for shitty sound, particularly back then. 2nd take is GREAT. and D'arcy is absolutely the epitome of 90s hotness.

I was waist deep in college studying civil engineering back in the 90s. I would crank this album along with 5 others in my 6 disc CD player and work on thermodynamics, fluid mechanics, soils and steel design homework. I'm a C- student but God man...I feel like an absolute genius when I listen to this stuff today.

SP were and still are the best band of their era - their ferocity, competency and vulnerability were what set them apart from their peers - Corgan is a genius on the guitar (that TONE!!!) and Chamberlin is hands down flawless - this moment of their career was truly special - I had a hard time following them from here on out, as they only ever occasionally were able to re-create this magic, but capturing lightning in a bottle is no easy task for any band - I'm so thankful for this video, and D'arcy's bass sounds positively crushing and monstrous!!!
