If you've ever wanted to bang out beats for Billy Corgan, now's your chance.

This Friday, in Los Angeles, the Smashing Pumpkins (ie. the lone front man Corgan) will hold auditions for a new drummer.

For something as momentous as this though, you'd think the band could come up with a more innovative web-centric strategy for getting the word out than simply setting up a GMail account.

Nevertheless, aspiring Pumpkin rhythm junkies can forward their drunken YouTube demos and Facebook party pics to pumpskinsdrummer@gmail.com

Just remember that you'll have Jimmy Chamberlin-sized shoes and grooves to fill. And he "left the job" less than 2 weeks ago.

Auditions will be held Friday, April 10 in Los Angeles for drummers who are looking to play with THE SMASHING PUMPKINS. They should send their background info, photos and performance web links via email only to: pumpkinsdrummer@gmail.com.
