the smashing pumpkins - geek u.s.a. - live

[@cougar9999]

jimmy's drums are great and they're always an important part of the song, instead of just some noise to lay down a beat. i love it.

[@blacksabbath812]

best drummer of the 90s full stop

[@helterskelter1178]

I've always loved Jimmy's drums on this song. Fuckin' RAWKS!

[@08L1V10N]

just watching how young they were makes me feel happier then ever

[@Sticksandstones32]

Gene Hoglan and Jimmy Chamberlin are the two elements of drumming.

[@MCALL99]

awesomeeeeee no words,just the best band as i always say

[@lemagreengreen]

This takes me back :) fantastic song and fantastic album, one of my all time favourites. Pumpkins never surpassed this one imo.

[@Ithinkthisworks]

I wish I could play drums like that

[@youtmeme]

still one of the best damn live performances I've seen!!! It's got everything, and they got taunted in the beginning, but you at least see the appreciation at the end for such a great, lengthy & inspired song. Maybe it helped to drive them?

[@crowbain]

Smashing Pumpkins are amazing!!

[@ArchitectRussell]

This is one of the best rocking moments

[@jackwhitefanatic]

this song is awesome, never heard it before

[@quadruplchin]

jesus, jimmy chamberlin is a fucking god at drumming holy fuck

[@youtmeme]

wasn't he a 'studio' drummer hired by the label? and imagine Corrigan formed this band with the intention of having no drummer just a backing drum synth!

[@MCALL99]

i love you all guys for being a fan as i am!! LOL Chamberlin is the best drummer ever yeahh

[@shponglerox]

stopenz zee throwenz zee cupenz, I love how Jimmy looks into the camera and smiles in the beginning

[@jakeenan]

Yeah that stop-en-zee line at the start was funny. Then you think where's this gonna go? Freight-train-Jimmy brings that mother home though. Whoa!

[@rvfw]

This is rock and roll...

[@LoomVideos]

the good old days :

[@stuartzoo]

yea but this is why i love this version. sooo fast.

[@Reno9824]

They own so much.....

[@ejoy50]

Bass solo was BRILLIANT!!! D'arcy was good when she wanted to be.

[@mistabook]

HAHAHA, Jimmy's look at the camera after the cup-throwing remark is priceless.

[@Suprematista]

=D that smile 0:19 is tellin' you "I'm gonna show you how to drum little guy"

[@explosiveshrooms]

yes jimmy is the man on drums

[@leew11k]

good times

[@bjthepumpkinguy]

DANKE!

[@typeonegativefan]

i was just saying dude. i didnt mean it in a bad way or anything. i am a huge fan of the pumpkins. saw em last year, nothing short of amazing.

[@falloutdisco11]

Jimmy Forever!

[@21reasons]

Go jimmy! Go!

[@CoroaMario1]

What can be done with drums/phase/base/distortion... well,THIS FUCKIN AMAZING SONG!!!! music played wth ACTUAL instruments cannot get much better than this!

[@Alekzbizkit]

and the drumming is fucking wicked!

[@ŁukaszJaskulski]

genialne!!!

[@philipsdisc1]

....Danke!

[@dancal7]

@0Banjo0 sweet! I'll have to check it out :)

[@boribori90]

It's like an asteroid of pure talent and beast musicality was careening towards earth, and THEN someone farted in hell creating a dual mega sinister ridiculous rock-pocalypse!

[@THE_BEAR_JEW]

@erikinhawaii Yup, pretty much just the early 90s

[@Pulits]

Best Pumpkins song or best Pumpkins song, EVER?

[@MileswillDo]

I love how they automatically switched guitars out of nowhere...

[@SamMelhorn]

yeah he really is. that is the best way ive ever heard someone describe him ha. "fuckin monster!!!"

[@JamesVsGravity]

Ahhahaha Thats wicked "Stoppen zee throwin ze cuppen" "Dunker" Obviously a sense of humor long forgotten by billy corgan.

[@cupolove1]

bring back this line-up!!!! and if darcy cant,,,, auf der mar should be the next choice

[@Thorneman_]

Holy shit this is so fast compared to the album version. God damn.

[@aGothicStory]

At :34 I saw the silverburst les paul and the first thing I thought was "Bad! That's Adam Jones's guitar!"

[@dinoherbert]

Jimmy is the best!

[@0Banjo0]

@dancal7 Go to their official website. You can download it for free.

[@NumroZero]

True dat, he was really underated...

[@MrMayonnaise]

i've never noticed but the guitar he is holding switches like 3 times.

[@owenrabbi]

note to self, jimmy: If you notice you're playing nearly twice as fast as you're used to, you might want to try to slow down

[@Alekzbizkit]

Man fucking word, fuckin' extraordinary solo dude.

[@0Banjo0]

@dancal7 Their new stuff is actually really good.

[@reallyocean]

I know it sounds like Danka sometimes when it's said, but it's spelled Danke.

[@vziou]

What a freakin great awesome drumming performance. Go Jimmy. By the way, it's stoppen sie, throwen sie, cuppen. german verbs (infinitive) almost always end with -en and along with sie its like a plural of formality or something. Smartass talk, gimme the thumb down ->

[@d3reilly]

only the best.

[@wagonForce]

@vovadrama Jimmy is a God Damned BEAR TRAIN!!!

[@DerrickthePinecone]

@djvictroladadj Interesting; I didn't realize tha he was a jazz drummer! That's fantastic. No wonder he's so good. I'm a fan of jazz music, and there have been some incredible jazz drummers in history. I believe Rolling Stone recently named Jimmy the Top 5 best drummer of all-time (if I'm not mistaken), which is saying quite a lot!

[@gabrielzero7]

Esa tia hablando en aleman al principio me la pone DURAAAAAAAAAA

[@deathspasm9]

0:17

[@BoKG13]

3:17 hell ya billy!

[@SailorSaucy]

@eyecthruunow no judas priset are they thou!

[@j_mac7]

Best fucking breakdown ever.

[@dancal7]

@erikinhawaii back when Smashing Pumpkins were good!! I don't think they put out any albums as good after this :(

[@0Banjo0]

@GrockJake I want to use Jimmy and Neil Peart's genes and create the ultimate face-melting, word crushing, universe tearing drumming god.

[@blarghblargh]

Oh, Viewphoria. Maybe I'll go home and watch it now =)

[@BlackTeddies]

Nice live.

[@typeonegativefan]

Does anybody else notice how James' guitar "mysteriously" changes from a Gibson Silverburst to an SG? lol

[@jonletter]

This is from the vieuphoria videotape

[@Kierono10]

What d'ya reckon? 70% of the crowd and the band were all mashed during that performance?

[@WWEjasond]

this song fucking kicks ass

[@crs78]

WOW!! fucking mind blowing performance! siamese dreams one of my favorite albums by SP!! thats what you fuckin call ROCK!! hmmmm lets see if panic at the disco cover this classic? I dont think so!!

[@mikehblack]

Jimmy...holy shit.

[@cgnetwork1]

stopen ze throwen ze cupen

[@sebastianquilt]

HAIL JIMMY!

[@dohzer13]

I love when I see people wearing Nickelback t-shirts. I always congratulate them on a joke well played.

[@FroylanRuiz1]

Pure fucking talent. :D

[@Zyfoe]

It's so hard to go back to the album version after hearing Jimmy Chamberlin destroy those drums.

[@HardAsARock222]

i love the small part the begins at...2:22

[@65neu]

would Nickleback and Fall Out Boy even get on stage after this band?? the Pumpkins would've crushed them like tin cans. i was 19 in 1994 and this is what i was listening to!

[@HungarianMafioso]

Am I allowed to say the same thing about Danny Carey from TooL? Please and thank you :-)

[@Selinedis]

This is like a nuclear bomb of awesomeness.

[@GeneralEisenhower]

darcy

[@Apizzaslice]

what do reckon is the more complicated drum beat? Geek USA or Jesus Christ Pose?

[@amberrocks6438]

#OMFG ♥♥♥ #SmashingPumpkinsInTheirPrimePeople ~the most amazing tour they've ever put on! #TallahasseeApril9th1994 ♥♥♥ ~ walked in and they came right out to play! #FuckingPhenomenal

[@tradervi]

i agree with punk91

[@jopporto1551]

prime pumpkins time

[@SailorSaucy]

@prod1gy3000 That's because you[re not human

[@biffbiffton]

this fucking rules

[@Rapidfire8]

hey u think they'll ever play this live again?

[@prod1gy3000]

I didn't think humans could play this fast/hard.

[@sopostelnik]

no, James said "Danke"

[@zebredpooding]

i meant "i could not..."

[@neilperrin6409]

Stopin zee throwing zee cupin.

[@iliveinsin]

Corgan - 'Geek'

[@kidkilowatt]

the word "kickass" means smashing pumpkins in any language.

[@thatissmashing]

FUCKING EPIC :)

[@Seitzy411]

who thinks of that on the spot? "stopenze throwing ze cuppen" holarious

[@titenate]

bass solo? what bass solo?!

[@johny5times]

Not sure what she says but "Alabama hammer" is deffo in there.

[@0Banjo0]

Lol at how it only says "Geek" instead of "Geek USA" at 1:00

[@reallyocean]

nothing billy said was german. He was most likely mocking/joking how the language is.

[@youmomhowdo]

On Earphoria, they should have included Billy talking. xDD
