THE LUCK OF EDEN HALL - Popped Psychedelic Rock and Rollism

On April 18th, 2009 a band by the name of The Luck of Edeb Hall was taking to Vintage Vinyl, a record store in Evanston, IL, to play a show in support of their new album 'When The Clock Starts to Wake Up We Go To Sleep'. As it so happened, one of the attendees at this show was a long time friend of the band who wanted to stop by and see how they had changed in the 10+ years it had been since he had last seen them. That friend was none other than Billy Corgan. On getting the chance to see the band play live again Billy says, "'Watching them play together again was quite emotional for me. Greg was one of my few 'friends' in the Chicago musical scene. By and large the local bands didn't like what we were doing style-wise, but our 2 bands really connected."
Originally from Kalamazoo, MI Gregory Curvey, lead singer and guitarist for The Luck of Eden Hall relocated to Chicago and it was there that Curvey first met The Smashing Pumpkins front man. (as compiled on the bands website)
