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.)

Zero

> The Everlasting Gaze

Stand Inside Your Love

Iha: Thank you so much for coming out tonight, uh, we appreciate it. You are rocking, we are trying to rock for you. Ah, this is a song from Mellon Collie and the Infinite Sadness called Thirty-three, thank you.

Soma

Vaudeville Interlude Film

(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.)

short lounge interlude (most is tape but Katie plays organ live)

> Stairway to Heaven

Iha: Thank you so much, Indianapolis. Stairway to Heaven. An iconic rock song, now done by the Smashing Pumpkins. Cross it off the list. How you guys doing? Having a reasonable time? Thank you. Like to do a quick introduction of the band. All the way from Melbourne, Australia, on keyboards, acoustic guitar, vocals, Ms. Katie Cole! Katie Cole. And now, from Manchester, England, on the bass guitar, Mr. Jack Bates. Doin' a hell of a job keeping the low end down. And now, from Southern California, on guitar, to my right, Mr. Jefffffff Schroeder.

Ain't Talkin' 'bout Love (tease - Jeff)

Iha: (high pitched) Pretty good looking, ow! (normal) From Joliet, Illinois, on the drums, Mr. motherfuckin' Jimmy Chamberlin! (cheering goes on for a bit) Another Jimmy Chamberlin! I am from Chicago as well, my name is James Iha, thank you so much, you guys are super awesome. You know, I never came here much. We live right next door but uh, why didn't we come to Indianapolis more, Billy? That's the look of a man who wants to get into that next song, on the vocals and guitar, Mr. Billy Corgan. Alright. Don't worry, we got more.

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!)
