Liam Gallagher‘s life is hard, okay? What with constant warring with Noel and being ID’d, age 40, for trying to buy a pack of darts, things are getting tough.
So tough, in fact, that he stormed off stage at Lollapalooza after just 20 minutes. Billboard reports that his set began at 4:30pm, and yet by 4:50pm, and after playing just three songs, he stormed off-stage.

You know he really means it when he doesn’t sign off a tweet with “as you were LG x”, but fans are still well and truly pissed.

As humans we all know three truths:
1. Death
2. Taxes
3. Liam Gallagher will walk off the stage at any given moment.#Lollapalooza— New World Man (@MSUSean) August 3, 2017
This tweet did not age well:

Or did, depending on your interpretation of and tolerance for so-called ‘rock star antics’. Lollapalooza has yet to make an official statement on the whole thing.
