Smashing Pumpkins kicked off their “Shiny And Oh So Bright” tour last night in Glendale, Ariz. and the 31-song setlist featured three very different covers including David Bowie’s “Space Oddity,” Led Zeppelin’s “Stairway To Heaven” and “Baby Mine” from the Disney film Dumbo.

The rest of the setlist spanned the band’s deep catalog and only included one new song in the recently released single “Solara.”

Smashing Pumpkins continue their tour on July 14 in Oklahoma City, Okla.
