The song has been performed roughly 21 times, first on January 15, 1998 at the Viper Room which was James Iha's debut show as a solo artist, opening up for a solo set by Billy Corgan. Iha and Corgan would play the song together on February 19, 2000 at the Cat's Cradle in Carrboro, North Carolina – a show billed as The Smashing Pumpkins that probably wouldn't have included "Be Strong Now" except that Jimmy Chamberlin was unable to perform after being stung by a jellyfish in Florida.
