Former Smashing Pumpkins frontman Billy Corgan reportedly stormed offstage during a gig in Melbourne on Tuesday night after fans started to call out for songs by his former band.
Despite recently saying he was interested in reforming the Smashing Pumpkins, Corgan acted negatively when fans at Melbourne's Palais Theatre started to shout for him to play Pumpkins classics. According to Australian music website Undercover, Corgan responded to those requests by angrily asking "Can I live my life for today?", telling one fan that if he didn't like his new music he should "ask for his money back".
Fans tried again towards the end of Corgan's set to persuade the singer to perform some Pumpkins tracks. Corgan responded by saying "Fuck this", put his microphone down and walked off stage.
