Most disappointing: Billy Corgan at The Forum in London

Played 2 hours of unreleased songs from his upcoming solo album. No Smashing Pumpkins songs at all, didn't acknowledge the crowd. Was awful. I left before the end because I didn't want to miss the train for that s**t and got interviewed by Radio 1 coming outside.
