Billy Corgan Invites Critical Fan on Stage to Talk Shit



Stereogum characterizes this exchange as a FAIL for Billy Corgan, but in my view I think he came out of this looking better than the other guy.

The story is that Smashing Pumpkins played two shows in New York. The first one was apparently quite bad, so much so that every music blog on the web just hated on Corgan in full effect. The second night, Corgan addressed the issue and invited this guy to come up and share his thoughts. I think Corgan's response is appropriate.

I dig the Pumpkins.

They suck live. They've gotten worse every single time I've seen them.
