OUT ON TOUR WITH THE SMASHING PUMPKINS

The most important man in rock (when judged from his perspective only), Billy Corgan, is a step closer to admitting that nobody really wants him on his own and is only going to pay him to be in the Smashing Pumpkins. You might recall last July he stomped off stage after people called for Pumpkins songs, although he'd sort of brought it on himself by sending a wonderfully pompous advert in the Chicago Tribune announcing his plans to bring back the money tunes.

Now, it seems, his plan is nearing fruition, as rumours leak the band are the possibly disappointing headliners for this year's Coachella.
