Space Oddity

Drown

Zero Interlude Film

(BC: Ladies, gentlemen, friends, lovers, beasts or fowl, welcome to the show. We are the illuminated, the illustrious, the ill-timed knock. (two snare drum hits) Ah yes, we are the fractured, the schisms, the rift and the rabble, the sleepy clown, the atomized downs, the dreams you stopped dreaming oh so long ago. Yes, all colors mixed and marred make up the black, as do all numbers fix up the zero, zed and null. So let's go back to your beginnings, as I shall go back to mine. It won't last, it'll be quick, but then again, that's why we're here. No past, no future, no sun. So let's blow on fading embers, to boast about kings near, forgotten and buried. Tis the end. Tis the end. Tis the end.)

(Mark McGrath: Well, hello there, neighbors! Are you enjoying the show thus far? Well, good, I am too, even though I'm not real. Now, if I could steal a moment of your time, I'd like to introduce somebody verrry special to you. He's been a friend and a neighbor to each and every one of you. He's been the voice you might hear in the stiiill of the night or a night dog straining against the moon. And, in fact, this young man has been with you almost every step along the way on life's long journey, sighing so ever soft. He's been a lover, a fighter, but never a cad. A beacon, a searchlight piercing every impenetrable fog. And he's here, just now, to sing for you, that golden chestnut we like to call Blew Away. So gather round, 'cause here he is: the one, the only, Mr. Jaaaaames Iha.)

BC: Thank you so editor - (makes tongue tied noises) - thank you so ever kindly, (laughing) Chicago. (Buffalo Bill voice) Thank you so kindly.

Cherub Rock

Vaudeville Interlude Film

(Mark McGrath: Well, wowie zowie, papa ooh maow maow! What a wang dang and doodle of a show. And, it ain't over yet. Now I don't know about you but this next tune is one of my faaaaaaves. Reminds me of drivin' down the old PCH, high out of my mind on ecstasy and I was singing the chorus of the song you're about to hear so hard and so on high, that one of my front teeth fell right out! Yup, plain out right there in the dashboard. Wow. That decade was just, just so good, wasn't it? I mean, here you have young wash masters rising up to start a musical and cultural revolution that was soon co-opted by the machine and driven asunder! Gee golly. But thankfully, what we got in return was just so much better. I mean, let's face it, who doesn't want perfection in their stars above? 'Cause perfect people making perfect, sweet music is, well, it's just, it's just what a god wants for all of us! Whoo! Red light, stop, it's raining. The air is cool and the sky is gray and the year? Well, it's 1979!)

Bullet with Butterfly Wings (w/Black Diamond tease in intro)

Iha: Alright, alright, alright, Chicago, thank you so much. You guys are awesome. Night 2 at the United Center, unbelievable, thank you so much. I'd like to do a quick shout out introduction to the band. Stage left, Ms. Katie Cole on vocals and keyboards and acoustic. All the way from Australia, Melbourne. Melbourne. And now, on the bass, all the way from Manchester, England, Mr. Jack Bates. Nice. From Southern California, on the guitar, to my right, Mr. Jeff Schroeder.

Cold Gin (tease - Jeff)

Iha: That's a great song but let's not get too far into that. All the way from Joliet, Illinois, on the drums, Mr. Jimmy Chamberlin! (Jimmy plays a short drumroll solo) Hey hey hey, that was crazy. On guitars and stuff, I'm James Iha. And lead vocals, lead guitar, Mr. Billlly Corgan! (Billy walks toward the mic to talk) I just had to cut in to say last song, people!

BC: Chicago, thank you so much. Two incredible nights, thank you so much. Thank you, thank you, thank you. I just want to say one thing we were - uh, sorry, I just wanted to say one thing before we walk off the stage, this is our last song, but before we do, I just wanted to say I was thinking about it tonight...and the world is this crazy place right now, as we all know. But love and charity and hope starts at home, this is our home. And let's put it this way, if we could get our act together, (laughing) so can the world, right?

Iha: I hope so.

BC: You second that emotion?

Iha: Second that emotion.

BC: Thank you, my brother. So for all of us, for all of us, 30 years, we started in this city 30 years ago.

Iha: Who woulda thunk?

BC: What a fuckin' crazy ride this has been! What a crazy ride. For those of you that have been with us for the most of it, thank you so much, we couldn't do it without you. And for the people who haven't seen us before, god bless you, thank you for giving us your time and energy tonight. So we got one more song, you might know this one. If you do, please sing along. James will be singing along with you in his head. Literally.
