It is the first known video of the band performing, who were visibly nervous, though this may have been simply a sign of their drive for perfection. The performance in its entirety was included on the DVD that came with the 2012 deluxe re-issue of Pisces Iscariot.

Chamberlin: One, two, three, four!
There It Goes
Corgan: Are we still rolling? Okay. Oh, okay. Um, the next, the name of the next song is She and hopefully I will hear my vocals better. Hint, hint.
Chamberlin: One, two, three, four!
She (false start)
Corgan: No. Cut.
Wretzky: What do you mean?
Corgan: I don't know, man. I'm just um, um, I'm having trouble hearing my vocals, and my voice is weak, so... Thank you.
She
Corgan: Well that sucked
Chamberlin: We could like, hold it out.
Wretzky and Iha: [unintelligible conversation]
Corgan: Sorry.
Chamberlin: Hi, we're The Smashing Pumpkins and we drink Pepsi.
Corgan: Okay. This is Under Your Spell. Featuring D'arcy Wretzky. On the bass of fuzzness.
Under Your Spell
Corgan: My Eternity. Okay.
My Eternity (two false starts)
Corgan: Uhhh.
(unknown tease)
Corgan: Alright.
My Eternity (abandoned)
Corgan: Sorry we're wasting your time. And sucking big. Yeah, please, please. I don't know why that is. D'arcy made like a big fuck— yeah you did, made a big fucking...
My Eternity
Corgan: Bleed.
Chamberlin: Boy, we haven't done this in a long time.
Corgan: Yeah. Thanks, Nick. Thank you for your patience.
Bleed
Corgan: Got it. Iha, Wretzky and Chamberlin: [unintelligible conversation]
Corgan: Nothing and Everything is the name of this song.
Nothing and Everything
Chamberlin: Sounds like we have the slightest idea of what we're doing.
Corgan: Okay. This is our new song, Jennifer Ever.
Jennifer Ever (abandoned)
Corgan: Screeching. Hello help me. Have I moved? No, mic's in the same place. I'll pull it back if you want. Check! Still a ring. Check! Check! Check! Check! Yeah, that's better. Yeah, I, it's not bad. Hey man, this is the world of music.
Sunshine of Your Love (tease)
Corgan: Rolling? Okay. This... hello? Yes. Um, this song is about, three and a half minutes at the most.
Sunshine of your Love (tease)
Corgan: Huh? [unintelligible] It's just like, one, two, boom-boom-boom. Do one of those Lucy kaleidoscopes, with our heads rotating. No, we don't, we only do, the only cover we play, um, we've only played two covers, uh, Time Has Come today, and uh, um, What Goes On by The Velvet Underground and that's it. Ready? Okay. This song is called Jennifer Ever.

Wretzky: You've heard it enough times. It's in your head.
Corgan: It grows on you, don't it.
