BC: Thank you, thank you. Thank you very much, thank you. Whew. Always an honor and a pleasure to be back here in the city of Sodom and Gomorrah.
Iha: City of lights. Hell yeah.

BC: Thank you very much, thank you so very much. How is - how is everybody doing tonight? Heh heh. No, I'm just laughing because there’s always the one guy who tells me "fuck you" when I ask that, you know. I don't know why but he’s - I guess that's how he feels. Um....yes, heh heh heh. Thank you, thank you. How's everybody doing up in there, in the uh, in those seats? Like to play you a song, uh, that we haven't, we haven't been uh, we haven't played for a while but we just started recently playing again or I started playing it again. Hope you like it, it's uh...yes, now he changed it to peace and love, see, that guy, heh heh heh heh. Oh. This means I'm going to die on a surfboard, what? Oh, okay or this is that, right okay. I'm not from California, I don't understand these....this lingo.
Muzzle (Billy solo acoustic)
Iha: So, is everybody ready to dance?
BC: James, we did that on the last tour and the tour before that, it doesn't work anymore. Let it go.
Iha: These people just need some levity and I think they wanna dance. They just wanna boogie.
BC: Are you saying our music is depressing?
Iha: (British accent) Oy.
BC: Because if you are, James Iha, I'm gonna come over there and kick your ass right now!
Iha: I would say that uh, I dunno if Kafka would say we're depressing or not but uh....
BC: Would you like to introduce the band, snakeytooth?
Iha: Alright. I'll introduce me. Thank you! On drums and acoustic guitar, Mr. Jimmy Chamberlin! Back on the drum riser, rockin' like nobody's business. On lead vocals and guitar, Mr. Billy Corgan! Heh heh heh, [unintelligible]. On the bass (pronounced like the fish) guitar and socialism, Ms. Melissa Auf der Maur.

Before we play our last song, we'd just like to say without you there wouldn't be a dumb band like us and uh, we owe you, we owe you uh, close to everything, not everything, you can't have our houses or cars but after that you can have everything we have. From the bottom of our hearts, thank you for a great night and a great concert, thank you, god bless you.
