I can understand them not playing all the old hits - I wouldn't expect them to. But I'm afraid its hard to be impressed when a band (or should I say Billy Corgan & gang) completely lose the audience for periods during the set. I looked around and saw yawns toward the end. I thought there was some pretty self-indulgent stuff played, and the audience definitely became disengaged as a result. Couple of hilarious light hearted moments (his rant against ex-lovers, cover of a girls aloud song, or verse at least) couldn't make up for it. There were some good moments, but too few. I didn't even stay for the encore and I've never done that before. Maybe I'm getting old.... sigh
