Tonight, Tonight
Iha: How are you, ok? Are you dying out there? Je suis fatique! Ca'va? Ca'va bien, d'accord!
improv
Disarm
Wretzky: I can't help but wonder with that last little ditty, what does a french cow say? No one knows...it's no joke, I really wanna know. Baa! If you can figure it out, write it down on a piece of paper and hand it in after the show.
Corgan: Alright, who speaks english? Alright, for those of you who speak english, please translate to the people who don't speak english next to you.
Wretzky: Sorry we don't speak very much french.
Corgan: We don't speak very much french...
Wretzky: We can speak, but we don't understand.
Iha: Je ne sais pas.
Corgan: Je ne sais pas. Ok, let's go through a couple facts of the concert. One, it is very hot. Two, we are very hot. It is tres difficile to continue playing. Now, we will play for as long as you want us to play. But you gotta give up something here, it's too quiet, it's too lame, it's not a very good rock concert. Yes, si, oui. Now, are you gonna give us some incentive to play or not? That doesn't sound very tres enthusiastic. Of course, I am being my tres difficile self, Billy. Translate please...
Iha: Difficult American.
Corgan: Difficult American, so...
Iha: Let's us rock, let us roll.
Corgan: Alright, hit it Jimmy.
Geek U.S.A.
