Banter
MC: Ladies and gentlemen, we are proud to have here with us tonight, to have four fine individuals, a real tribute to the city of Chicago, and a tribute to music in general. I'm happy to say that they're our friends, and I hope they're your friends, ladies gentlemen, the Smashing Pumpkins.
To Sheila
Tear
Corgan: Thank you very much.
Wretzky: (unintelligible)
Corgan: (unintelligible)... I know Mellencamp, you could play under him while he was talking, but you don't play underneath us.
Once Upon a Time
Corgan: We'd like to take this moment to thank Cheap Trick, for asking us to play the show, it means a lot to us you know, as we are Chicagoans. I definitely never thought I would see this day come, I'm not sure they did either, it's all good.
Daphne Descends
Let Me Give the World to You
Corgan: You know it's weird we're just playing Metro. We used to practice above the Cubby Bear about nine years ago. We'd like to thank the Cubby Bear for treating us like shit back then by the way too, we haven't forgotten you. I remember one time I came up with this idea, OK we're gonna do this like uh, kind of hip-hop version of I Want You to Want Me, and D'arcy you're gonna sing it. So we spent like two hours, it never worked obviously. Just all kinda came back to me in that particular moment. And away we go...
Ava Adore
Shame
Corgan: Thank you very much, thank you for being awesome, cool, wonderful, having a great time tonight. We still believe Cheap Trick is one of the greatest bands ever. Now we'd like to destroy everything that they stand for.
Transmission
Corgan: Kenny Aronoff on the drums! Thank you, have a good night. Could you put the lights on for one second so we can see everybody?
