We’d like to think that you're here because you love our music and we love our music too.

Iha: Alright, now that we have danced, we will now rock.
BC: Hey Ethan, can we have some lights please?
Iha: Ouch. Oh jaded Los Vegas, hello. Heh heh. While I couldn’t believe it, the stories I heard about Las Vegas and now I know all of them are true.
BC: But you know, we're always known for our honesty and I think it's time that you - for you to fess up about your gambling addiction. I know it's not a s - it's not an okay subject but I think you should come clean right now. Ol’ Blackjack Iha.
Iha: Twenty-one Iha for blackjack. Twenty-one Iha.
BC: No, I believe that's bust.
Iha: Bust Iha, heh.
BC: That’s why you have a problem. We had a cabdriver who told us today, (gruff voice) "Yeah, Las Vegas, it’s a tough town. (normal voice) Full of, heh - (gruff voice) full of broken dreams and lost promises."
Iha: So we'd like to dedicate this next song to that cabdriver.
BC: But you know what he said? He said those fuckin’ kids from Vegas, they’re fuckin’ crazy.
D’arcy: You are.
BC: Heh heh. You know why? You know why? Because you live in the fuckin’ desert and it's so fuckin’ hot here! What the fu - heh heh heh.
Iha: This next song goes to Frank Sinatra!
