Billy Corgan and his Smashing Pumpkins are on tour, reminding everybody why Sharon Osborn quit as their manager, calling Billy a "baldy twat in a dress."

Reviews of the Smashing Pumpkins' shows in new New York last week were rather negative.

"Things quickly fell off a cliff, bogged down by tuneless dirges like the reworked version of 'Heavy Metal Machine' and a noisy, directionless cover of Pink Floyd's 'Set the Controls for the Heart of the Sun,' said Rolling Stone.

Matthew Perpetua of Fluxblog said those songs were indeed "flat-out awful" and that the encore ("a song that mixes disingenuous hippy-dippy 'everyone is beautiful!' lyrics with improvised sarcastic rants that outright diss the city you're playing in, mock the fans for paying to see your band, and tell your visibly disappointed audience that you'll see them in hell") was "full-on douche-tastic passive-aggression." Yeyah!

The following night, Billy invited a heckler onstage.

"Last night's show fucking sucked," shouted the boy.

"Do you want your money back?" asked Billy.

"Nah, I was kidding," said the boy.

"Then we're all good," replied the star of the show, waiting until the boy was offstage before adding, "by the way, I like that song you wrote -- 'Take Your Dick Out Of My Ass And Stick It In My Mouth."

Watch and learn!
