(NME) BILLY CORGAN stormed offstage during a gig last night in MELBOURNE (July 26).
The ex-Smashing Pumpkins singer was performing at the citys Palais Theatre when fans began shouting for songs by his former band.
According to Undercover.com one audience member yelled Play some Pumpkins before Corgan retorted Can I live my life for today?
Nearing the close of the gig, another request for Smashing Pumpkins songs led Corgan to say Fuck this, and put his microphone down before walking offstage. [see full story for more]

Good for Corgan. Nostalgia is for the tools and geezers. Did Fugazi play Minor Threat songs?...
