Corgan: Thank you very much, thank you! Come stai, that's Mandarin, right, come stai? How's everybody doing, okay? Smashing Pumpkins, first time in Hong Kong. Over here, we got my man Jeff Schroeder. Three picks man!
Schroeder: For you. For you. For you.
Corgan: What a great crowd, right? Thank you so much! Smashing Pumpkins is all about positivity, embracing your freedom...
Schroeder: Feeling good...
Corgan: Having the right haircut, keep the right moustache […] On the drums, Mister Michael Byrne [unintelligible] On the bass, Nicole Fiorentino. Are you a Belieber? […]
We're very happy to be with you tonight... we're about halfway through the show... we put the songs you don't like at the beginning, and then we put the songs you're gonna like at the end, so it's gonna get better. [cheers] Certainly everyone speaks English! So it's only gonna get better, this is the last bad song. 'Cause I write good songs and bad songs, so we gotta play the bad ones, too. 'Cause if we just play the good ones your head would explode from the... the love. In fact Mike was in the hosital, his head exploded.
Fiorentino: Too much rock or too much love?
Corgan: Um... I don't know how to put that into words, I'm trying to keep it PG-13. Okay so we've one more song here from our Oceania album. Thank you, I know four of you have bought it, thank you very much. Major sales in Hong Kong. I believe I was able to buy breakfast in my hotel on the royalties from the proceeds of the Hong Kong sales. Incredible, incredible love. Anyway, so this is the title track from our album, it's called Oceania. It's a nice, dark journey to the soul... if you have a soul, if you don't have a soul, that's cool, there's other bands you can listen to. Oceania. Oceania
