This Time (Billy solo acoustic)
BC: Thank you, thank you. Hey, can I ask you a question? Woo. This isn’t one of those bullshit concert questions, this is a real question. Um, I’ve been here for two days and uh...I’m sorry, somebody else wants to talk. Okay. Um, I’ve been here for a couple of days driving around and uh, usually when we’re in a town for a couple of days, I’ll hear on the radio. I didn’t really hear us on the radio, are they playing us on the radio here? Okay, wait. Those who say that you’re hearing us on the radio, please say yes. Those who say that you’re not hearing on the radio, please say no. That’s what I thought. Well....
Iha: Marketing research says....
BC: Well, that’s cool, um. Thank you. I just, uh, I just encourage everybody to, uh, if we’re not on the radio, you gotta call ‘em up and complain and say play ‘em on the damn radio. Because we’re rich rock stars and we need more money.

Now please help me finish the song. From the bottom of your rusty stomach, I want you to scream with me, it feels very good, I promise. Are you ready? Are you too tired? Are you ready? All together, ready? (screams and band goes back into song))

Iha: Thanks. Thanks a lot. You guys are great. Thank you.
[encore break]
Iha: Thank you very much. Thanks.
BC: We salute you, Texas.
Iha: [unintelligible.] I’m extremely and I - it must be worse being in the mosh pit out there - but what, uh, we appreciate your enthusiasm [unintelligible].
BC: Yes. Hello, is there anybody out there? Hello! I just want to - to say thank you because we’ve been, we’ve been playing, uh, for almost 13 years now and uh...thank god it won’t be 13 more but um, heh heh heh. Yes, yes. Uh, heh heh heh. Anyway, I just wanted to say that you reach a point where, you know, we feel we can come out and do a good show even if it was a bunch of dead people but the real, the real difference is when we get a lot of energy from everybody, it brings out the best in us. And our band - our band since 1990 has always been about everybody that comes to see us. We owe you - we owe you the world, we owe you everything and we can’t thank you enough for your support and uh...everything, thank you.
