Window Paine
Iha: Thanks a lot, uh, we're The Smashing Pumpkins, we're from Chicago. Thank you, thank you very much. And um, right now we got a Sub Pop single out right now and if you wanna come by afterwards and buy one, we got one for you.
Snail
Out of Focus
Corgan: Thank you very much. What are you trying to say? Paranoid? Alright, this song's in the key of E and it's called "Birth of the Phoenix Child Part 3," thank you.
Tristessa
Corgan: Alright this is another in a metaphysical, uh, series. This is called - it'll never be released! - "Chump"
Slunk (breaks down)
Corgan: Ah that was the greatest, shortest song we ever played.
Wretzky: Alright.
Corgan: You wanna hear that one again?
[cheers]
Corgan: Alright but you gotta pretend you didn't hear this.
Godzilla
