This whole concert including Smashing Pumpkin's was simply awesome, including the sound.

I literally don’t understand these reviews. 1st of all, I’m an audio engineer and I know good live sound, and great live sound. This was GREAT live sound. Much more refined and dialed in, than the crazy amp volume of the past. Secondly every performer was absolutely delightful and sweet to the crowd who would think otherwise? Examples? Every band killed it- and if you think janes addiction was unintelligible- you’ve never heard janes addiction! That’s how it is on the record! The pumpkins BROUGHT it- flawless performance- the new stuff is incredible- in fact Billy’s screaming again and it’s SAVAGE- there was a point where after a song a complete stranger high fives and hugs out group because “that’s what I paid to see” . No live video will even come close to conveying not only the energy of pumpkin land- but how incredible this show actually sounded. If you had a bad night sound wise - then you must’ve been in the one bad spot. I was on the left side 1 row up and it was great

Both bands were tight energetic and entertaining. Some pretty disappointing reviews from previous shows but the Vancouver date was excellent. Janes set was too short, is my only complaint. Brilliant sound very loud and clear, musicianship was spot on. Back up band very cool as well. Hope future shows bring as much pleasure as this one did !!

Poppy was goddamn amazing. I had never heard of JA previously and I’m glad I didn’t because they were actually horrid. The sound was completely unintelligible and the sets and lights were easily the worst out of all the bands. The lead singer talked for half of the hour they were on stage and was a dick to the crowd. Smashing pumpkins were great but the sound quality was horrible. I could barely hear the singing most of the time and when I left the concert my ears rang

The sound at the austin show was not good. Distortion was much higher than previous shows on other SP tours. Lyrics were barely intelligible. Very muddy. I went the next night and sat in the exact same area for Roger waters and it was significantly better. One of (if not) THE best sounding concerts I’ve ever heard. So, I think I had a pretty fair assessment. Jane’s was great. Maybe the sound profile fit their music better? Pumpkins show was good overall, but the sound made me leave a pumpkins show early, for the first time ever.

As others have noted the sound quality was not great. It was way too loud to begin with. Yeah whatever grandpa!! But seriously, with Jane's Addition I could barely hear the singing since the instruments drowned it out. And with the Pumpkins, that aspect of it wasn't there but still, holy shit, my ears were bleeding. I wet with my wife and she thought the same. We've both been to a ton of concerts and it's not like we're afraid of loud noise. But at some point it's TOO loud. Other than that I thought the performances were really good. I didn't see the opening act so can't opine on that.
