NOTHING LIKE A BAND REHEARSAL TO CAPTURE THOSE SPECIAL "POLAROID MOMENTS."
PIC(S) INFO: Spotlight on a Polaroid shot of Smashing Pumpkins "deep inside their national rental car rehearsal space," plus other shots of same rehearsal, c. undated, but it's gotta be early-as-hell 'cause it couldn''t possibly be from their early to mid '90s period.

#smashingpumpkins: 1979 (1995)… This was a cool find. Another, wish I had recorded my reaction moment. D'arcy Wretzky as the old school #karen, in curlers and bathrobe. Makes a call complaining about the party across the street. I remember buying this album when I was in high school. And I still have it. The house is in #santaclarita , #california. #taftcalifornia #jamesiha #90s #90smusic #90srock #90salternative #music #musicvideo #musicvideos #tonighttonight #today #zero #billycorgan #meloncollieandtheinfinitesadness #movielocations #movielocation #filmscout #filmscouting #locationscouting #locationscout #socal https://www.instagram.com/p/CgE9DlJLXoP/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

#gish #thesmashingpumpkins #darcywretzky #jamesiha #jimmychamberlin #billycorgan #marygaines #chriswagner #butchvig #dougolson #howieweinberg #stangetz photography: #robertknapp #michaellavine Another Wonderful 90’s debut! This album rocks and it’s one of my fave records as just how hard this record rocks #buryme #iamone - this band is propelled by one of my favorite drummer Jimmy Chamberlin. I love that D’Arcy gets a lead vocal on #daydream. This was such a great time period and have my buddies who I shared an office with #andygershon #michaellustig , our then puppies Lucy & Shannon and of course #raymondcoffer - their shows were always a trip . The next 3 albums from this band were brilliant - well what a ride Enjoy (at Hollywood Hills) https://www.instagram.com/p/CTLZ2qAlwhC/?utm_medium=tumblr
