This weekend saw Billy Corgan play a 31 song, three hour career spanning set at Ravinia Festival in Chicago.
Mixing up greatest hits with B-sides and rarities, The Smashing Pumpkins frontman played the whole set acoustically, joined by guitarist Jeff Schroeder.
Playing tracks from across his back catalogue, Corgan performed Pumpkins' classics such as 'Mellon Collie and the Infinite Sadness' and 'Ava Adore' as well as a series of covers including Echo and the Bunnymen's 'The Killing Moon'.
The encore saw Corgan joined by members of his pro-wrestling league for a performance of Zwan’s 'Of A Broken Heart'.
