Corgan: Thank you. I Am One
Corgan: We'd like to thank everybody for comin' tonight, thank you. This next song, uh, we'd like to play for you, is a...is a, was a, was a song that was written I think around 1989, and um-
audience member: Spiteface!
Corgan: no no, it wasn't Spiteface, no, this is uh, this is uh, what am I trying to say, this is one of the songs I think where we first realised uh, the sort of sound that we, had so uh, this is why I wanted to play it for you tonight. Rhinoceros (false start)
Corgan: Even on our last show we can't get it right...are you...hey wait, something keeps being jacked up, and as long as we're stopped we might as well, something keeps being jacked up, alright, we're gonna play a different song now, I think it's this mic. Rhinoceros Shame Porcelina of the Vast Oceans The Everlasting Gaze Bullet with Butterfly Wings
Corgan: Thank you very much, thank you...so we've got a little um, present for everyone when they leave tonight...it's a signed Christmas card James! No acutally, we made CD's for everybody of our first show here at Metro.
Iha: I don't know if you guys like Little Feat, but we did a whole cover set of Little Feat songs, that's our first show here.
Corgan: Yeah, it's um, it's 38 minutes long, that's all they would let us play back then, yes, we played Spiteface, you've been waiting for um, 12 years to hear that song...you wanna hear a little Spiteface? Spiteface (tease)
Corgan: That's the last time we're ever gonna play that.
Iha: Another last time right there.
Corgan: You know, we were, we were here last night rehearsing, and uh, there were some stupid crazy kids outside waiting, and last night when we were rehearsing, I was sort of, you know, as you will, you reminisce about all the shows that we've played here, and the one thing that sort of struck me was, um
back in the old days when they used to put the monitors back here and you used to stand back here, there was this spot on the stage that was sort of wobbly...I don't know if they've ever fixed it, but uh, everytime I'd go to sing, the mic would go like...
Iha: We certainly had a different kind of sound back then, so uh...wobbly.
Corgan: Now we'd like to play you a song off the Mellon Collie And The Infinite Sadness album...it's not a bad album, sorry. Thru the Eyes of Ruby
Corgan: I'd like to bring out a couple of special guests...we have uh, a bunch of special guests tonight...he's the most dangerous man in the world, Dennis and Jimmy Flemion of the Frogs. Blissed and Gone
Corgan: Would you like to sing a little love story Dennis? Love story? Where Do I Begin? (Love Theme) (tease)
Corgan: Don't be shy, this is, this is Linda Strawberry...she's very famous in Romania, number one. To Sheila
Corgan: Linda Strawberry...thank you to the Frogs. Mayonaise I of the Mourning
(Set Break)
Corgan: We've got a special guest right now, mister Matt Walker. Muzzle
Corgan: Thank you very much. Stand Inside Your Love (abandoned)
Corgan: It's our last show people, jeez...see you can't have a love song in F#, it just doesn't work...it's a G kind of thing...as long as we're stopped though, I'd like to say, uh, I wrote this song for my girlfriend up there...where are you Yelena?..(unintelligible)..I think she's left the building
audience member: I love you!
Corgan: I love you too. Stand Inside Your Love
Corgan: Thank you, how's everybody feelin'? Perfect
Corgan: Thank you very much...this uh, this next song, is interesting because uh, for this particular case, because, when I wrote this song it was pretty much the last song I wrote for the Machina albums, and uh, I knew the band was going to break up, so I guess this is sorta prophetic, this song...that's ok, there'll be another concert to talk...it's a Pumpkin joke...so this is This Time This Time
Corgan: Now I'd like to introduce the man on the mic, mister James Iha.
Iha: Thank you...one, two, one two three four. Go
Corgan: Uh...so this is uh, the last song I wrote for Mellon Collie and the Infinite Sadness, this is called the Last Song. The Last Song The Last Instrumental Age of Innocence (Piano Improv) Thirty-three
(Set Break) Tonight, Tonight
Corgan: Next song, you ready there James? Siva
Corgan: Hello...have you had enough yet?...Have you had enough yet? I don't know, you like you may have had enough...we got a little treat for ya right here
well if ya hadn't had enough, you're gonna have to, huh? If you hadn't you're gonna have enough after this one... Fuck You
Corgan: That's right, that's right. Just to all of you here, thank you very much. I'll tell you one thing, we aren't leaving anything behind when we leave here tonight. We're taking it all with us! Every single ounce of it....So we'd like to, haha, we'd like to play some more songs. This next song was in that scintillating grunge movie, starring...
Iha: Starring, uh, Matt Damon.
Corgan: Good Will Hunting! I'm making a cultural joke, then I realized, I'm in a silver dress.
Iha: That is, that is true.

I can't believe we got there, you got there, thank you very much...we wanna say thank you for havin' the greatest fans in the world, the most absolute amazing people in the world...of course we don't believe that bullshit but it sounds good when you say it...we love you too...so one more song, everybody sing along for a change. Today
(Encore Break)
Corgan: Thank you very much, thank you, heh, um, before we play any more, I'd like to uh, say a little prayer, I'd like to thank god for getting us around this earth five times, safely, and giving us the will and the way to uh, I don't know, yes, thank you, and god, thank god, I'd like to say a very special thank you to all the families of the Pumpkins, both friends and real, the Wretzkys, the uh, the Ihas, the Chamberlins, the Corgans, the Andersons, the Walkers, the Flemions, I'd like to say thank you very much for the support you've given us over the years, I'd like to say thank you to all of you, 'cause without you, obviously this wouldn't happen, I think we...I think we've tried to show you that we've never forgotten that part of it, and uh, I'm too spaced out...I'd like to say thank you to our enemies for pushing us to try harder and be better
so uh, thank you very much...oh yeah, and one more thing, I'd like to say thank you to the people we've lost through the years, thank you for being a part of our lives...I'd now like to bring out a special guest, he's cool, he's bald, he's my father...he does have more hair than me, I don't know how this worked out...it's a sort of, it's a genetic mistake.
Corgan Sr. (Over Martha intro): We wanna dedicate this song...to someone very special to us...we know tonight she's out there listening..Darce (?), this is for you. For Martha Born Under a Bad Sign
(Encore Break)
Corgan: I know it's hard to top my father...we'd like to bring out a special guest, seeing as I pretty much ripped this song off me, from him, although its my song, if that makes any sense...ladies and gentlemen from Cheap Trick, mister Rick Nielsen. Cherub Rock
(Encore Break) Disarm
Corgan: Thank you...James, would you like to introduce the band?
Iha: Yes i would.

Corgan: Wait, hold on...hold on. I think the three of us should say a special thank you to Melissa...without Melissa, this wouldn'ta all been possible, thank you very much Melissa.
Iha: Yes, a fine round of applause for Melissa.
Corgan: We're eternally vengeful, I mean greatful.

Corgan: Hell of a girl, hell of a girl..ok...now we've asked you to sing along to a couple of other songs, and we didn't get your full participation...we know you didn't vote and thanks to you we now have George Bush as a president.

no pain
i feel no pain
i feel no pain

there is no pain i feel
and all that i recovered of the broken pieces of my soul
i dove to the bottom of the river
and i lost my self control
how bad is it johnny
it's real bad commander
how bad do you want it johnny
i want it real bad captain
i want it real bad
and all the mockingbirds say
tweet tweet

tweet tweet
it was drilling a hole in his skull
he did not know where he wanted to go
but he knew he wanted to get there
i hear what you want
and i feel that way
i hear what you want
and i feel that way
how do we do it
we do it like this
how do we do it
we do it like this
how have we done it
we just made a wish
how have we done it
it all started with a kiss
we may walk far off the path
but we have returned at last
because the answer to your question
the answer to your guess
is the fucking fact that we never left
bang bang you're dead
bang bang you're dead
bang bang you're dead
put a hole right through your head
bang bang you're dead
bang bang you're dead
bang bang you're dead
put a hole right through your head
bang bang you're dead
bang bang you're dead
bang bang you're dead

she loves you
yeah yeah yeah
she loves you
yeah yeah yeah
help me if you can i'm feeling down
help me if you can i'm feeling down
and i know my way around
and on a bright summer day
a couple sway
catching fish and a beautiful girl
not just any river
but one that can deliver a fish
she says now
where are you going to
she says now
anything that you want to do
because with you my love i cannot lose
this is not abuse
it's a choice
and a mother cried real tears
'cause she lost a daughter and a best friend
he had the face of all those other boys
what's he want with her anyway
she reveals to her friends
and they would say
don't worry
it's true love
don't worry
it's true love
everything was gonna be all right
all right
all right
all right
it was going to be all right
love and pain
love and pain
love and pain
did the troubled voices say
love and pain
love and pain
love and pain
did the troubled voices say
i know what you want
i know what you want
i know what you want
yeah
go
cause they know
i hear your winter rain
and i
i put into a bomb
sometimes the silence
is heavier than the rain
sometimes the silence
means more than the rain
leaves falling
that's right
that's right
that's right
that's right
do not dare disagree
uncaged uncorked unlocked upon the masses
we still lie to get what we want
cause we are sweet as
ahhhh
and for you
for the shame
ahhhh
i hear what you want
and i feel that way
i hear what you want
and i feel that way
do you feel
do you feel
do you feel
how many times do we have to prove this
but let us demonstrate one more time
sort of redundant that way
every teardrop
yes
that's when everything went blurry
yes
can you say yes
yes
we're in the affirmative now
as we said the last time we were on this stage
positivity rules
the heart will win
there is no better way
and all through the winters of my discontent
all through of what i didn't know and what i didn't want
the fences i would crawl
the fences i would stand
upon a self imposed subwall
and nobody cares
it was sad man
and i hear your winter
and i hear its alright
and i did not fail to your wall
and i feel no pain
i feel no pain
i feel no pain
i feel no pain
i feel no pain
and you said
she trusted me
we bled my arm
and dead you bled me daily
it made me so sad i'd wanna crawl
awwww
its always darkest before the calm
until we play a song
until we play a song
until we play a song
(from pro #1c)
theres nowhere else to go
mommy mommy can you hear me
mommy mommy they wont me be
i dont know where else to turn
