Smashing Pumpkins treated their fans to a cover of David Bowie’s ‘Space Oddity’ during a show in Portland last night.
Billy Corgan and his band also played a cover of Hole’s ‘Malibu’ which Corgan co-wrote on the first date of their acoustic In Plainsong tour.
The show was also the first time that original drummer, Jimmy Chamberlin, joined the band on stage since he re-joined last year.
In Plainsong sees the 90s band head out on a strictly acoustic tour and focuses on ‘electronic soundscapes’.
Once the tour is finished the band will be returning to the studio to work on the follow up to their 2014 release ‘Monuments To An Elegy’.
