Smashing Pumpkins’ Billy Corgan hosts benefit concert for Highland Park. ‘We will always come together.’
Frank Catalano Quartet performs at musician Billy Corgan’s Madame Zuzu’s teashop in Highland Park on July 27, 2022, during a virtual concert to benefit the victims of the mass shooting that occurred during the 4th of July parade in the North suburb.
“The reason I named it ‘Together and Together Again’ is we won’t stop. We will always come together,” Corgan said. “We will always bond around what we care about, our community and our love for one another. No one can take that away from us. And tonight we begin to reclaim that for Highland Park, and we want to bring that message to the world.”“This is a community reeling,” Corgan said. “I’ve lived here for 20 years. I’ve never seen anything like this in my life.
Rotering thanked donors and urged her community to seek counseling in the wake of the shooting. She said she and her husband have gotten counseling, and the Foundation will help provide mental health resources for anyone in the community who needs them.As the music transitioned from Blues and Jazz to alternative rock, performers shared their reflections about the attack.
Dawnelle said she has been listening to Smashing Pumpkins since she was in high school, but that it was 14-year-old Gavin who told her Corgan currently lives in Highland Park. Wearing a “Highland Park Strong” shirt, Rita shared her and Michael’s appreciation for Corgan’s gesture. “I saw the instruments there, I saw Smashing Pumpkins and I saw and I was like, ‘Huh, that’s weird,’” Posadas recalled.
