The Shiny and Oh So Bright Tour was the Smashing Pumpkins' headlining reunion tour after Jimmy Chamberlin and James Iha formally rejoined the band in early 2018.[1] Prior to the tour, there were some notable exchanges from frontman Billy Corgan and founding bassist D'arcy Wretzky over her absence from the reunited band.[2][3] The tour was noted also for having a three-hour setlist with material solely from the band's first five albums, except for four covers and the 2018 single "Solara".[4][5][6]
