We Found The Smashing Pumpkins ADORE Tree 4K

[@halloweenghoul325]

I’m close friends with D’arcy she’s basically my adopted mom, she told me that the adore photo sessions were her favorite of all pumpkin photos. I sent her this video and she loves it.

[@brianthompson1485]

If this is true I hope and wish her well! I miss the days of when she was active with fans on Facebook, but totally understand wanting privacy. A shame thick headed Bill and her couldn’t fully make amends.

[@halloweenghoul325]

@ yes, it’s 100% legit in person real life have known her for 6 years and I’m engaged to her ex bf who she was with on and off before me. That’s how we met. Her farm and horses are amazing.

[@grimmlifecollective]

This makes us smile. All the best to her and the photos are beyond amazing.

[@halloweenghoul325]

@ I rarely talk about her but I had to show her this! Thank you !!! We are friends on Facebook I have photos from the tonight tonight paintings idk if you’ve seen them it’s been a few years since I posted. Great job grim life!!! Love y’all!

[@marciosr8504]

so cool👍👍🙏

[@Nephilimfields]

Trees are the lungs of the planet. I would be suspicious of anyone who doesn't at least feel the loss when they die. I take some comfort at least in a wildfire, the burned nature helps replenish the land for new growth. There is nothing wrong with feeling bad/sad/heartbroken for the loss of any sort of life. It was a living thing. It deserves, at minimum, our respect. You, Michael, showed that treat much respect. Thank you, sir.

[@cherylcarter4046]

I’m 72 and been a subscriber for over a year. You’re always interesting, informative and respectful. This was especially good.

[@grimmlifecollective]

Thank you Cheryl and thank you for watching. Happy Holidays and Happy Halloween 🎃

[@LostintheTangle]

They really go the extra mile, these two, don't they (especially on this one, eh, Michael? lol)? There are so many channels on YT who make money just reviewing other people's videos, or just sit there blabbing away and staring at themselves. It's so lazy. The Grimmlife duo works so hard, travel all the time, and have really interesting topics. Two faves of mine are the Labyrinth location video spanning 2 continents, and the Pet Sematary video. That one was spooky and surreal and they really went all out.

[@WhatsYourGhostStory]

Documenting moments in time, that's all we can do. You didn't get to see it standing, but at least you got to see it at all. It's amazing that it's not just ash after the fire.

[@WhatsYourGhostStory]

Also, I LOVE the Pumpkins. As a Chicagoan, they were our hometown group we cheered for as they got bigger and bigger. It's awesome you're such a big fan too.

[@kerrimanes8292]

You made the comment in the video, sometimes you feel Bat Crap Crazy for traveling all around the world for some of these videos. I'm so happy that you do. I look forward to your videos. When I get a notification that there's a new video, it just makes my day Thank You

[@craiglewis6821]

Your videos have a way of taking me back 👻 Happy Halloween 🎃

[@grimmlifecollective]

Glad we can take you on a journey. Thank you for watching.

[@shaynewheeler9249]

😢😢😢😢😢

[@Emrose93]

Such a great video as always. I adore Smashing Pumpkins too. Shame the trees not standing but still cool you went out there for you and us.

[@raishonstanley1313]

I love the song 1979 it a amazing song and video too

[@chuckprefume3218]

Great band, great album and great video as always!

[@kyleechristina1231]

“Bat crap crazy” made me think of the Cheshire Cat saying we are all mad here but instead it’s “we are all crazy here” 😂 but mannnnn the hike! Hike of hell? Did anyone stop and ask if you needed a ride? Haha wonder if that truck thought you were a hitchhiker lol and I love your PG sayings by the way 😂 truly the best I’m going to start using them now haha long and beautiful walk for sure and loveeee the drone shots really sets the tone of the setting of beauty! So incredibly sad the fires took out the beautiful tree! 😢but amazing that you found where it was! And you hiked all the way to it! Wildfires take away so much beauty of nature and wildlife many things are lost. But it’s the rebirth or revival of the things lost. Though it’s sad this tree was lost, there’s beauty growing all around it, as it lies there as a grave almost, the beauty and memory will always live on. Love you guys so much thank you for the adventure always💚🦇👻❤

[@aaronfrahm623]

[@grimmlifecollective]

Think you for the kind and fun words. You know…we should release a Grimm Dictionary. Lol

[@kyleechristina1231]

@@grimmlifecollectiveyessss! Omg this needs to be a thing! It shall be added to the to do list! The Grimm Dictionary is in the works! And it might take less time to write than a normal book! 😂

[@pinbot76]

I remember being struck by the strange beauty of that photo when I got the CD back in the day. An underrated album, and a great vlog idea!

[@letskillmusic]

The very first record i bought on vinyl back in 1999, also my favorite Smashing Pumpkins album. Your video takes me back to that age of innocence.. thank you Michael.

[@Babypapayaproductions]

An amazing album ❤

[@mistersurrealist]

Yay! Another Pumpkins related video. I also adore ADORE. It's an album I discovered in my teens (in the early 2000s) and that evokes so many memories and mixed emotions. It takes me back to a very specific place and time in my life.

[@chicogozosodecabellosedoso]

What are you talking about Dali ??? You were already death in the 2000s. Don't try to play young or alive !🤭

[@gilmontanari]

One of the best album from Smashing Pumpkins in my opnion, so magical, so dark.... beautiful aesthetic musical and visual

[@QUEENofHEARTZ1973]

The place should put a huge rectangular post sign to say what days you can and can't drive back there

[@ebonyponder5076]

We must Never be Apaaarrtt 🎃 Love that Song

[@jessehurtado1222]

Even in its current state, the tree looks beautiful.

[@MalindaJ-s5u]

I appreciate you, thank you for this and all the other videos and adventures you bring me on.

[@boag3144]

that drone footage of you walking up looked super cool it would also look cool in black and white as a photo and video! Once again always great content!! Best on youtube!!

[@AimeeLady]

It's so sad the tree is no more it would be awesome if someone went out there and planted a new tree in hoping that some of the old tree sap would help and fuse with the new. Michael you must be really tired after all that Hexeriseing. But you did good and didn't give up.. just amazing! Happy Spooky Halloween 👻 🎃 🤪 Michael & Jessica..

[@grimmlifecollective]

Thank you and so happy you liked the video. It would be really cool to plant a tree there

[@aprilheuft6682]

Good afternoon Micheal and Jessica! We love the video! Thank you so much! Love you both!

[@EnigmaGirl831]

Ah the Pumpkins. Fellow Illinoisans. I just watched the video for Ava Adore cuz i haven't heard it in so long and it's a good ass song. Great video Michael. Happy Halloween to you too.

[@cynthiaschofield1551]

First of all, thank you for your content. I love the nostalgia that you bring. I mean that you Michael and Bby Ghoul deliver an explanation and still invite nostalgia. I don’t like to get caught up in nostalgia because it makes me feel a lot However, to stimulate my brain in these nostalgic moments, I don’t fall, into a hole And I never knew how much I would enjoy this until you created this so thank you for your genius moments in content My favorite by far has been the lost boys. I was obsessed with that movie and so was my best friend PS your nails look fabulous! thanks Y’all

[@ElkeMB]

Thank you for introducing another great Band, very cool! It is sad about the fire, and seeing all those trees destroyed. You gave here a nice tribute video, a great job indeed! Thank you Michael, sorry i am a bit late, relatives issues 😊

[@cherubschannel4353]

Love the Smashing pumpkins 🎃 and you are so special to walk there to show us the tree. It was still a beautiful skeleton tree. Happy Halloween 🎃

[@karlwood445]

Shame about the tree.Great Ariel work.Good job ❤

[@jasunhuerta5587]

I really like the photography of the cover of that Album, even though I never heard it... I REALLY like this Lone adventure of this episode----- makes the viewing all that more sweeter. I love the help you got from the Park Ranger, and others in the area, and that really makes all the difference, seeing your filming travails arising. Sorry, about the fate of that tree... Love your coverage, and I hope to see you at a convention some time, so I can talk about my favorite episodes of TGLC.... Much love, and be safe.... Happy Halloween..... :^)"""""""

[@grimmlifecollective]

Thank you as always. And when I was there it really felt in the middle of nowhere but then when I got home and started editing the footage…I felt like I was on a distant planet.

[@jessicaziemba1447]

It won't be the same anymore. RIP Adore Tree.

[@catmom7447]

That is still history, and you have it. It is a shame and heart breaking what mother nature can do. Great video.

[@raishonstanley1313]

Very cool history tree from famous tv and for that album too

[@1SeanBond]

A fantastic view! This was so cool to see! Appreciate your efforts in all you do! Ty Mike🤘 & Jessica⚘️ Luv&Peace ✌️💫

[@filmbuff2777]

Interesting. Thanks for sharing. Its a shame about the fires. I'm in Australia, so this really hit home for me. The worst fires we've ever had were only a few years ago, so I can relate to the news footage you included. On a lighter note, I noticed on the slip of photos you showed at the start were taken on Kodak Tri-X film. This is a film I like using a lot, & used a few rolls on my recent trip to Italy & the UK. Hope you have a great New Year!

[@cobwebsandcatnip]

Really interesting video. I loved seeing the landscape, so warm and sunny too. It's so grey and foggy here in the UK, actaully you'd probably love it😄

[@grimmlifecollective]

Oh we love being in the UK and think about it often. Can’t wait to visit again.

[@joet4030]

Michael, another excellent video!! Awesome drone footage!! Thank You!!

[@HappyGoosey]

we already know you took a souvenier lol why didnt you film it lolol jp love the video

[@becky_9880]

Love your content, especially all the SP videos!

[@wilsoncolton3125]

Im In the hospital watching Mike thank you for the video ❤

[@grimmlifecollective]

Feel better…and thank you for watching 🎃

[@Headstone_Guy]

Beautiful Shots!

[@crimsonshadow7459]

This is amazing man I love the smashing Pumpkins I have an Adore tour t shirt this was my go to album during some of my darkest times what a treat thanks Grimmlife ❤

[@Rubyvalentine27]

Hey! Great video as always!! And that is totally something I would do 😂 walk halfway only to realise you can drive, and then you get there and the tree is no more 😢, then you realise you forgot your water, but we appreciate your sacrifice and totally agree those views were worth it and would have been missed, so wasn’t all in vain! Was still interesting even if it was just the corpse, love the drone footage too! Hope you didn’t encounter any snakes on your hike back 🐍🙈 until next time xx🖤xx

[@naybur74]

there are many other locations you can still find from their albums, and videos, fan of the band, and it was good that you at least showed us what you did, on to the next!

[@BrooklynBaby100]

Awesome video! 🎶✨

[@DodlDecF]

It's sad about the tree and actually all the vegetation. I'm in Illinois and when I see these fires I feel so bad for the animals and people who are in the path of these fires. Thank you Michael for going out in the heat and hiking to find this tree.

[@jasonallwood9444]

Thanks for another interesting video.

[@Trippin_Halloween]

Well that was a wicked video. I love the pumpkins and crestfallen is my fave from that album. Your right, those pictures are haunting. What a tree hey!

[@martinwilliams8820]

I Adore this video, thank you!!

[@Josh..420]

Awesome loveing the content ❤

[@grimmlifecollective]

Thank you for watching Josh

[@shaynewheeler9249]

😢😢😢😢😢

[@MiddleAgedBaldGuy]

By the time Adore came out, Jimmy Chamberlin was out of the band because of his drug use. If you're ever in Chicago, I encourage you to check out the Metro. That's where it all started for the Pumpkins. Thanks for the video!

[@LogicalVelocity]

Love it. Pumpkins are also one of my favorite bands of all time.

[@MrPadraic23]

I love this album, it was my introduction to the Smashing Pumpkins. I loved the images of the tree

[@jeffwoeber9590]

I haven't listened to this record in ages, it's spinning right now :)

[@leahfox7076]

My favorite band and a really special album for me. I love this!

[@chrisbanks5925]

Nice video Michael and beautifully filmed as usual.

[@cathymorris6674]

Thank you Michael, great video! You have an amazing creative eye and it keeps getting better! I share your emotional connection to parts of history & nature. So glad you reached out and touched it! Happy Halloween!

[@Chelliegoth]

Beautiful video though,so sad for the tree. Taking a walk is always good for the soul.

[@ashleyg8633]

That was great! Thanks as always for all your wonderful efforts to bring us along for the ride… SP 4ever! 💕🎃👍

[@leesashriber5097]

Hey ghouls!! This was an excellent video. I love how in depth you are with all your uploads. Love you both!! 👍❤️👍 So sad fire destroyed the tree and all the acres around it. 😢

[@grimmlifecollective]

Thank you for watching…this was a pretty good trek and an adventure. Hex-ercise

[@janetmaurer2888]

cool that you found it!

[@susanhelms107]

Thank you so much bro Michael for sharing this awesome video about the Smashing Pumpkins band I never heard of him but they sound like a wonderful singer artist I will look them up have a wonderful day where sis Jessica happy Halloween be safe❤❤❤❤❤

[@gagadreams]

One of my favorite albums! Way ahead of its time! 💗

[@RyanCrase1]

Thanks for doing these. I love this stuff. RIP Money Tree ❤

[@Carrierdlr1]

Really good video, home you got a piece of the bark from the money tree!!

[@AvaThomson1231]

Looks so cool, love you guys. And love the view with the drone in the air. 💚🖤

[@grimmlifecollective]

We love our drone and will only use it for things like this…establishing shots and to set the mood. Thank you 🎃

[@aaphotofilm]

We love you Michael. Sorry I keep saying that but you are a legend in you own right. Always a huge fan of your channel and j like he watching your adventures. Your videos are Truely addictive to watch. So sad that tree was gone but im atill haopy you found where it was. Hooe you had an amazing Christmas 😊

[@Jaydeelady]

So jealous of the t- shirt weather there. I'm in Vermont and it's freezing 😢thanks for the video guys. 🖤💚

[@grimmlifecollective]

Yeah…I don’t think we could ever go back to being in the long period cold environments anymore. To visit is awesome…

[@jerimiahjohnson4645]

Pretty Awesome. Happy Halloween 🎃

[@happytrails699]

that is a very cool trail. This was filmed so well.

[@angelicacrosby778]

Thank you grimlife for sharing another adventure in music history. Happy new year to you both ,looking forward to more.

[@jimmyjimjims7483]

My favorite was always Mellon Collie and the Infinite Sadness, listened to that CD a million times as a teen. Crazy that the tree is still there (most of it anyway) lol. I’d take a piece of the tree and put it in like a little glass vial or something since the tree will rot away eventually, maybe encase a little piece in resin

[@DallasinCali]

I love your videos!!!!!

[@OneMorningSongs]

So sad and beautiful at the same time. Thank you🖤

[@Jay-n262]

You guys are always finding cool stuff.

[@debbieabney383]

I just wanted to let you know that I really appreciate all of the adventures you and Jessica are nice enough to take us on. All of your hard work you put in doesn't go unnoticed. Thank you. Here's to another spooky fun year.and as always happy Halloween now and forever.☮️💜☠️💀👻👹🎃

[@aknudsen93]

What a great video and photo❤I love the Smashing Pumpkins. Completely off track but I loved your video that you did for the set locations from, “The Birds”. Would you ever consider covering another Alfred Hitchcock movie? I’m a Hitchcock nerd😂

[@grimmlifecollective]

Yes yes and yes. There are more Hitchcock videos coming in January. Stay tuned.

[@victorimmature]

Some Great Hovering above you Shots , i never knew Baby Gaul Gaul hover 👻 Great Vid

[@markbaker8607]

You are such wonderous people. I love your unity. Advantageous souls wondering the earth. I love this.

[@sardav160479]

Awesome video

[@BurritoMassacre]

Tree are truly amazing plants. RIP tree. ❤

[@ralfb.4762]

A man telling stories about a tree and looking for this one tree - great story.

[@smashingbrandon]

I'm almost 40 now and I remember when I was 15 listening to this album in my bedroom all the time after school. One of their best in my opinion

[@colinthomson7518]

Great Video, that poor tree

[@DalainaRenee]

New video yay 😮😅🎉

[@grimmlifecollective]

Surprise! Hope you enjoy the adventure.

[@flowerchild89]

Cool video! I am a huge fan of The Smashing Pumpkins 🎃🎃🎃! I remember listening to the CD Simese Dream over and over again! And Adore is one of my favorite songs, too! ❤️

[@ShelbyWard-r2z]

Amazing video Michael! Such a bummer that the tree burned down 😢 but at least some of it remains thanks for sharing this with us it was a beautiful tree reminds me of something Tim Burton would’ve loved to see or put into one of his movies love you and Jessica so much Happy Halloween 🎃🦇💀😈👻🖤🖤

[@paulfuryes203]

Excellent video .

[@heliandonov]

How fitting. Adore is also one of my favorites, despite what (some) of the critics were saying back then. And just now spent my earned free time listening to Smashing Pumpkins for nearly all night

[@grimmlifecollective]

Sounds like a great night. Thank you for watching.

[@gwenpigeon7016]

That was a very fun video. Love the smashing pumpkins. 🎃🖤👻

[@grimmlifecollective]

Thank you…it was quite a journey

[@gwenpigeon7016]

@grimmlifecollective i bet it was.

[@chicogozosodecabellosedoso]

The bold guy in the video's miniature reminds me that weirdo killer from the movie "The Cell" . I think that was a very good movie that unfortunately got very little recognition.

[@blackphillip8486]

Perfect is probably my favorite Smashing Pumpkins song, first time I ever heard that song it just delivered. Was introduced to them on Siamese Dream but that song always does it.

[@thebeardedairgunner]

Super cool stuff brother

[@li5a17]

What a wonderful video ! I’m a smashing pumpkins fan, I love Adore. What a shame about the tree 😔 But thank you for going there for us. Id love more SP related videos 🙏 😘 🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤♥️ Beautifully done Michael

[@MegaCatlady66]

another thing about it is it survived that fire so you could still see it so that's another good thing

[@raishonstanley1313]

The smashing pumpkins is a amazing band

[@MoellerEngineeringCo.]

That's very sad.

[@RebecaLawrence-w6e]

Thank you for another great video Michael. The things you do for Grimmlife Collective. The places you go. Hope Jessica is doing well. Hope the walk wasn't to bad. I like the smashing pumpkins. Their music is good. The world is a vampire. My good friend. Use to play the heck out of it. Sorry about the tree being no more. That would of been cool to see. At least you have the famous picture. At least you got to see it's corpse. Those fires California has. My fiance last a house in Malibu. To a fire as well as his car. The poor tree. Your the best Michael. Thank you for everything you do. Happy Halloween and Happy New Year. Stay spooky my friend. 🎥🤗💀🧟💀🧟🦇🎃🧛🐺🕷️❤️🤡🦈🐍🔪👻🐊🪰🐈‍⬛🐍👹🦈🤡

[@grimmlifecollective]

Thank you so much for watching Rebeca. Happy Holidays and Happy Halloween 🎃

[@TudorDarkness]

Fires always seem to ruin everything =[, at least they kept the corpse, so to say, just like they did in England with Elizabeth's Oak (has a rich history to it as well, but it's about Elizabeth I and her parents Henry VIII and Anne Boleyn). Do you think they'll keep the corpse or make it something commemorative for all the art that has been created there? Also love the music you use in your videos, it's absolutely haunting. Have you created those masterpieces yourself?

[@grimmlifecollective]

It would be really cool if they did something to commemorate it but sadly…I think our video might be the only thing. Thank you so much for watching.

[@thebeardedairgunner]

My dad still lives in Ventura California. He refused to leave when the fires burned through the foothills behind his home. Alot of damage for sure.

[@grimmlifecollective]

I can’t even imagine living out there during a fire.

[@MrPadraic23]

Such a sad thing, such an iconic tree

[@THELIVINGMONSTERS]

Thank you.
