SMASHING PUMPKINS | James Iha & D'Arcy Sue Virgin, Corgan

Billy Corgan is about lose some dollar bills to his former bandmates:

James Iha and D'Arcy Wretzky-Brown, original strummers for alt-rock hitmakers the Smashing Pumpkins, have sued Virgin Records America, claiming the band's former longtime label screwed them out of royalties for ringtones, file downloads and other "electronic transmissions."

According to the lawsuit filed Thursday in Los Angeles Superior Court, Virgin inked an exclusive deal with frontman Billy Corgan in 2005 to license their tunes without Iha's and D'arcy's OKs.

Is it too early to call Billy Corgan & His Not So Smashing Pumpkins reunion a total failure? Or is it too late..........
