Reports from the July 27, 2005 show have Billy Corgan engaging in multiple arguments with the crowd regarding requests for Smashing Pumpkins songs.

"...one audience member yelled 'Play some Pumpkins' before Corgan retorted 'Can I live my life for today?' A fan claimed that someone else later yelled 'We want rock' and the singer told him to ask for his money back. 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."[1]
