The organizers of the Official Canadian Smashing Pumpkins fans page also run a fan site called Landslide on that fan site, we have an internet radio station through Live365. But now internet radio is in jeopardy. Click the image below to see how you can help:
This is the Official Page For Canadian Smashing Pumpkins Fans. We are dedicated to bringing together Smashing Pumpkins fans from all over the Great White North, from Vancouver to Halifax, from Whitehorse to St. John's and beyond. We will be helping organize fan gatherings and promoting The Smashing Pumpkins across our great country. To set the record straight, this page is not run by The Smashing Pumpkins or their management/promoters,etc. However, we are officially recognized among other regional fan pages across the world in a special directory on SP's myspace page. That's why we have 'official' in our title :).

According to The Pumpkin Queen (SP official webmistress): "the band is talking about creating special merch for groups as well as possible meet and greets etc. when they come through your city. I'll come out to do some meet ups with exclusive info. from the band before touring starts.....and I believe BC plans on naming each individual group. :)"
Interested in becoming a team leader for a city not already taken? Read below:
A city team leader is responsible for organizing fan meetups in their area. Meetups can take many forms, such as casually meeting at a pub or restaraunt or park, or doing things like a coffee house/open mic nights, movie nights, etc. When you have set day and time for a meetup, we will help you by sending out an event invite from the Canadian SP fans page to as many people as we can find from your area.
Team leaders are also responsible organizing street team activities such as flyering , as well as rallying them to call into a local radio station to request SP.
Attention all team leaders: A good starting point and a great way to get involved is to drop off/post flyers promoting this page at independent cd shops in your city. Please download and print this flyer ,
which was designed by your fellow team leader, Chris Venus from Calgary :)
The Official Canadian Smashing Pumpkins Fans myspace layout is based on a layout made by vreniarei at CreateBlog.com .
Feel free to check out Ghost Children/Friends and Enemies, a Smashing Pumpkins tribute compilation organized by Canadian fans. It includes artists from around the world, including 2 Canadian bands!
Also, we invite you to join our message board , which is currently primarily used for SP fan website, Landslide and our SP fan project, Act IV but we would like to broaden its scope. At the boards, we can discuss more indepth strategies for promoting SP and discussing the fan meetups.
