The Smashing Pumpkins are celebrating the 35th anniversary of their debut album Gish and the 30th anniversary of Mellon Collie and the Infinite Sadness with a series of events, including the 'Rats in a Cage' tour and an orchestral rendition of the album in the UK and Europe. The band, reuniting with producer Butch Vig, is also preparing a special performance at the Las Vegas Sphere, with Billy Corgan confirming their strong interest in the venue. Tour experiences are being designed as theatrical productions, blending music, visuals, and narrative elements.
