Billy Corgan to play an improv suite inpired by Hesse's 'Siddharta'

On February 28, in Chicago, a special event will take place in the teahouse owned by Billy Corgan (The Smashing Pumpkins); at the Madame ZuZu's Teahouse, in Highland Park, indeed Corgan himself will put up an eight hour ambient performance based on Herman Hesse's novel "Siddharta".

Via Facebook Corgan announced the event writing: "On 2//28 I'll be doing a show at Madame ZuZu's Teahouse; start time noon, and due to nature of performance it'll last 8-9 hours. So see http://MadameZuzus.com in coming days for details on seating and admissions. As with all our events there is no charge. Performance will be centered around an ambient/musical interpretation of Hermann Hesse's Siddhartha; built by modular synthesis, on the fly. Readings of the text to go hand in hand with whatever is created; + the first @Hexistential poster, and event t-shirts too. Hope to see you there".

So, don't expect to listen to Smashing Pumpkin's big hits or any rocking stuff: we're talking about an improvised ambient suite... arty to the core!
