Iha: I feel great. How're you doin'?

BC: Did you go river rafting today?

BC: Ducks. They know about Ducks.

Iha: Ducks? (immense booing from crowd) Is that code -– is that code for something?

BC: Didn't know ducks can be so controversial. (booing continues)

Iha: Some round of fans...of these Ducks. These Ducks are great. Just flappin' around. Everybody loves them. I digress, we'll get back to the show any second here. Or, if you want, we'll just freestyle and, uh, take it away -– [unintelligible)]. (laughs)

Iha: One show only a night.

BC: The space cowboy...and the vampire.

Iha: [unintelligible].

BC: Anyway, it's nice to see so many young faces. To our old school fans, welcome to the new school fans, we're.... We're about thirty-six years into the SP experiment. That means "Smashing Pumpkins" in case you didn't know. Uh. (laughs)

Iha: What?

BC: Well, if you talked to me backstage, you would know that. Okay. Anyway.

Iha: I didn't know that was a thing! Okay!

BC: We need to go to therapy. (taps mic twice) James, what would you like to bring up? Ducks! (crowd screams)
