As many fans know, March 17th, 2000 is Billy Corgan's 33rd birthday. A group of dedicated fans have banded together to create a special gift for Billy for this date, called Project 33. The objective of this project is to have the song "Thirty-Three" played on request shows around the world, with a specific goal of having it played on "Total Request Live" on MTV. If this is something you would be interested in participating in, please visit the Project 33 website at http://www.project33.org for more information.

Best Buy is offering a bonus 5-song cd of previously unreleased music with MACHINA/The Machines of God minuimum of 100 per store, on February 29, when Machina is released.

The Smashing Pumpkins sued former manager Sharon Osbourne Tuesday in California court, alleging fraud, breach of contract and other charges. Osbourne, wife and manager of heavy-metal singer Ozzy Osbourne, quit her post last month, seven weeks before the release of the band's MACHINA/the machines of God (Feb. 29). At the time, she said in a statement that Pumpkins leader Billy Corgan was "making [her] sick." "This timing portrays a calculated, vindictive attempt to damage the group both emotionally and professionally," the Pumpkins said in their lawsuit. A representative for Osbourne said Wednesday he had not seen the filing and could not comment.

We have new confirmed tour dates through March 7 to view them go to the tour dates page

The Smashing Pumpkins have released seven new dates for their ongoing Resume the Pose in-store autograph tour, a band spokesperson said.

"[The key] opens up all kinds of opportunities," Liz Darling, Portland's director of marketing, said. "You can open your beer bottle with it." The new dates are: noon Saturday at Manifest Disc in Charlotte, N.C.; noon Sunday, at Plan 9 in Richmond, Va.; 6 p.m. Tuesday, at Bull Moose in Portland, Maine; 6 p.m. Wednesday, at Transworld in Albany, N.Y.
