Glass and the Ghost Children
> Tonight, Tonight
BC: Helloooooo!!!!!! Shhhh. Shhhh. You have to be very quiet for the heavy metal.
Heavy Metal Machine
Zero
The Crying Tree of Mercury
Age of Innocence
> I Am One
BC: How y'all doing out there? Does anyone speak English? Hahaha. It's nice to be here with you tonight, god bless you. We'd like to play a song off our Adore album, this is called To Sheila.
To Sheila
BC: Thank you very much, thank you very much, thank you very much, thank you very much, thank you very much. How's everybody doin' out there, you alright? Does it sound okay? You sure? You're not unhappy for any reason? Is it too hot? That's the end of the concert, I was just talking to you, goodnight, thank you. I'm just joking.
The Everlasting Gaze
Rock On
(BC during Iha solo: Brigitte Nielsen on the lead guitar.)
I of the Mourning
Money (That's What I Want) (tease - Billy plays riff to soundcheck and rest of band joins in)
Iha: Uh...blues.... Do not cheer for that, that was awful. But thank you.
BC: That was a song from our new album.
Iha: That's the opener.
Ava Adore
> Cherub Rock
(BC over extended drum intro: Ladies and gentlemen, for our final song of the evening, we'd like to play for you Cherub Rock.)
[encore break]
Iha: Thank you, thank you. [Two Italian words.] That was my lame attempt at Italian. On the bass, Melissa Auf der Maur. Back on the drum stool, Mr. Jimmy Chamberlin. Well, they're new members, so, heh, I didn’t.... Unfortunately me and him have been around for a thousand years, uh.... On vocals, guitar, Mr. Billy Corgan.
Disarm (acoustic)
(Iha a few seconds after Billy starts song: (high pitched) And me, James!
BC: Don't worry, everything's okay. It's a good thing you're from Italy. Canadian, Swiss, Italian, right.
Iha: And now, Jimmy puts down his sticks in pure disgust, he picks up the guitar.
1979 (acoustic, Jimmy plays guitar)
> Today (acoustic)
(BC during outro jam: Yes, today is the greatest day that I’ve ever known. Doesn’t get any better than today. If it was tomorrow, wouldn’t be as good because we’re more interested in Today. Yesterday was okay but today was even better. And I won’t even get into yesteryear. I’d like to introduce you to my uh, my long suffering...friend, James Iha. He wants to play you some blues right now.)
BC: Ciao, bella!
[encore break]
Iha: We'll play a couple more. Thanks a lot, you guys have been really great. We appreciate it. We appreciate your rock energy.
Glass' Theme
> Bullet with Butterfly Wings
BC: Thank you! Goodnight, goodnight, goodnight, goodnight, goodnight. Thank you.
