I’ve been Smashing Pumpkins for over 25 Years?!?

I remember being around 10 years old…during the summer and coming across The Smashing Pumpkins “1979” video (when MTV played…music, you member?) I heard the nostalgia in that song…a feeling I wouldn’t even understand until my mid 20s. And I kept it in the back of my mind. I think even then I understood the gravity of music’s influence in my life. Something that would never fizzle. Prior to my mid 20s, in high school I had a group of friends in this band called “Epiphany” and during a Class Day ceremony they played “Tonight, Tonight” a Smashing Pumpkins song and it relit the thought in me that music understood me. And I understood music. It’s wild to think about…no matter where you are in life, those little moments always matter. I love “1979” from the Pumpkins…but I had to mention “Tonight, Tonight” here. Because that whole era was glorious. And I don’t think I’m the only one who agrees!
