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.)

Zero

> The Everlasting Gaze

Stand Inside Your Love

Iha: Alright alright alright, Salt Lake City, thank you so much! How’s it goin’? Thank you guys for coming out to the show, we really appreciate it. You guys are rockin’. We’re just at like...third of the way through the show, we’re just kinda cruisin’ right now, gotta get into the real part of the show now, so uh.... This next song is from Mellon Collie and it’s called Thirty-three.

Thirty-three (acoustic)

Eye

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.)

Blew Away

For Martha

BC: Thank you so kindly, thank you very much.

Tonight, Tonight

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

> Stairway to Heaven

Iha: Thank you so much. You didn’t bargain for it. You wanted -- you’re like, I’m gonna get a ticket, I’m gonna go to that show, I’m gonna get three hours of rock music, but I’m definitely not gonna get Stairway to Heaven. There’s no chance in hell they’re gonna play that song tonight. It’s crazy. Like to do a quick introduction of the band. On my left, all the way from Melbourne, Australia, on keyboards, acoustic guitar, vocals, Miss Katie Cole! Katie Cole. And now, all the way from Manchester, England...on the four string guitar, the bass guitar, Mr. Jack Bates.

Iron Man (tease - Jack)

Iha: (British accent) I believe that’s from Birmingham, yeah? (normal voice) (laughing) That’s a terrible English accent but it made Jack laugh. Jack, do you wanna get on the mic? Let’s talk about football! It’s gonna be a long, uh, another ten days before that Manchester -- you guys don’t give a fuck, okay, never mind. On my right, from Los Angeles, California, on the guitar, Mr. Jeff Schroeder!

Panama (tease - Jeff)

Iha: (high pitched) Woo! (normal voice) “That’s what I wanna hear. I’m leavin’ the concert and I’m going to see that.” All the way from Joliet, Illinois, on the drums, Mr. Jimmy Chamberlin!

unknown (tease - Jeff)

Iha: He’s killing those drums. Hey, I’m James Iha, thank you so much. And now, on lead vocals, guitar, Mr. William Patrick Corgan!

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!)

Radio Intro tape

> 1979

Ava Adore

(BC before bridge: Jeffrey, look at all the beautiful people here tonight! Wooooo, SLC!)

BC: Thank you so kindly. Ohhh, okay. This is where the drugs kick in, I see. This is a big drug town now, as you know. I’m just kidding, just kidding.

Iha: I did not know that.

BC: Thank you very much for coming tonight. We’d now like to dive back into our...show.

Iha: Extensive catalog.

BC: Heh heh heh. This is a song that’s near and dear to my heart...called Try...Try...Try.

Try, Try, Try

(BC before outro: And then there you are in the middle of life. Waiting, wondering, hoping, praying, whistling a tune.)
