Except from the article:

On Monday night, "Billy went on a whole tangent on how this was a new band and they make mistakes." Such candor! Though the cat was way out of the bag after this display from Saturday night, of guitarist Jeff Schroeder taking some of those "mistakes" out ... on his axe.

And when sound issues hand you lemons, you make ... a profit! Ever the entrepreneurs, the great Pumpkins turned it into an opportunity for some sweet-ass merch. Kayvon sent a pic from SP's Monday night gig at Fillmore, of Jeff's mangled guit -- for sale at the merch table. The cost?

$10,000 ... cash only.
