Banter

Iha: Good evening.
Tonight, Tonight
Corgan: Alrighty Jimmy.
In the Arms of Sleep
Corgan: Thank you so much. Ah, there it is.
Cupid de Locke
Corgan: Thanks. Thanks so much. It's a pleasure to be here with you this evening. Of course, that's assuming we know what pleasure is, but if we do...we're slightly esoteric. It was like, we're happy to be here, but if we knew what happy was...confused again there?
Thirty-three
Corgan: Like to play you a song that I wrote back in 1912, it's one of my favorites, and hope it's yours as well.
Today
Wretzky: Back in, back in 1912 that used to be a square dance.
Iha: That was just...
Wretzky: Great square dance, yeah.
Corgan: And then the rocket ray descended, god bless it.
Lily (My One and Only)
Corgan: Thanks a lot. We'd like to take you down to the underground. Right to the undertow. We don't know who lives there, maybe some gnomes, but that's where we're going.
Take Me Down
Corgan: Good god! I believe you got on the good foot on that one.
Iha: Thank you.
Beautiful
Corgan: Thanks thanks thanks thanks thanks thanks thanks thanks thanks.
Wretzky: Thank you for the flowers.
Iha: We like flowers.
Corgan: Flowers are good.
Iha: Flowers grow.
Corgan: Trees are bad. Flowers are good.
Iha: Trees are bad. Flowers are good.
Corgan: People are good?
Iha: People are sometimes good.
Corgan: People are good, yes, people are good, yes.
Iha: People are dualistic, good and evil.
Corgan: People are good.
Iha: People are good.
Corgan: Gods are great.
Iha: Gods are crazy.
Corgan: Like to play another song from the 20s.
Iha: This goes all the way back, about three years ago.
Corgan: It seems so fucking old, doesn't it?
Rocket
Disarm
Corgan: God bless you, thank you.

Mellon Collie and the Infinite Sadness (PA intro)
Where Boys Fear to Tread

1979

Bullet with Butterfly Wings
Thru the Eyes of Ruby
Corgan: Nah, we don't play Gish stuff anymore. We're not the original lineup, so why should we play the first album?
Porcelina of the Vast Oceans
Corgan: I'd like to mention that Jimmy here's got the stomach flu, he's been throwing up all day, so...let's not applaud his throwing up.
Wretzky: Yeah, so stay away from him after the show, you don't wanna catch it.
Corgan: He wanted to the cancel the show and we said no!
Wretzky: Yeah, we'll make him play.
Corgan: Please say thanks to Jimmy for being a trooper, he will thank you in person after the show.
Iha: And uh, also, well we haven't introduced our keyboard player, our keyboard player is Jonathon Melvoin.
Corgan: He's over there James, look.
Iha: Well, he's not on stage.
Corgan: You can see him though.
Iha: He's left the building, left the building. Jellybelly
Corgan: Like to do another sad song from Mellon Collie and the Infinite Sadness, 'cause that's what the whole damn thing's about.
