Zero
Corgan: Thank you all very much, thank you, thank you very much for coming to the second and the last show of our world tour. Of course we all know the reason you are all here tonight is because you couldn't stand in line first cause you all have jobs unlike the people here last night...to the working man and girl. We'd like to take you back to the land of long ago, way back to the time of Adore-ation
To Sheila
Wound
Corgan: We'd now like to take you down, way down to a land where there are no stars, no heroes, only lovers, mental guns, kisses that are bullets and guys that look like James. That's the land we're going to
Ava Adore
I Am One
The Crying Tree of Mercury
Corgan: Thank you very much, thank you
Pale Scales
The Everlasting Gaze
Rock On
Corgan: Thank you all so very much, I don't know if you got the message of that song I won't reiterate it but I hope it penetrated
Iha: I guess the basic gist was to 'rock', that's what I caught from the famous David Essex song although I'm not sure what rocking 'on'.. I suppose you could rock 'off', that's just as valid. There's a Stones song called 'Rocks Off', but David Essex apparently chose 'Rock... On'. Alright let's continue with the rock on or off, whatever you choose. Another new song from our new album which most of you probably haven't heard
Corgan [laughing]: What did you say?
Iha: Another new song from our new album which - rock on/rock off - you haven't heard yet
I of the Mourning
Corgan: We present to you the incomparable, the insufferable, the intolerable... 'Cherub Rock'
Cherub Rock
Iha: Thanks very much you guys have been great, power to the people. As you probably have discerned we're gonna do some acoustic songs. We practiced this song many times and it's hard to beat... it's hard to beat the syncronicity of the drum machine so Jimmy has taken it upon himself to play the guitar with us
[break; band return]
1979
Norweigan Wood (tease)
Iha: It's an old Beatles tune... there is no point to that comment, I was just... commenting
Corgan: This is a song from Adore called 'The Tale of Dusty and Pistol Pete'
The Tale of Dusty and Pistol Pete
Corgan: Thank you
[break; band return again]
Iha: Thank you, thank you, thank you, thanks again. We'd like to welcome back to the drum throne Mr. Jimmy Chamberlin and on bass we'd like to welcome Miss Melissa. Thank you very much, the curfew is approaching so we must play our songs at three times the normal speed so slow down your brains and then you will hear them properly
Stand Inside Your Love
X.Y.U.
Corgan: God bless everybody, God bless you, thank you for a great concert, thank you, love you, thank you
