Banter

Lady DJ: Well, we are here and we are about to bring you some live music. Remember, this is absolutely live as it happens, we’re at Maida Vale and it gives me great pleasure to welcome, ladies and gentlemen, Smashing Pumpkins!

One and All

Being Beige (abandoned almost immediately)

BC: Stop. My fault. One more time, live.

Being Beige

BC: A man needs this, gotta hydrate. Heh heh heh heh.

Lady in crowd: Play a Rage cover!

BC: Real funny.

Brad: (off mic) I’m loose.

BC: Mr. Brad--Mr. Brad Wilk.

Hummer

BC: Hmm, okay. (testing guitar) It’s all grunge. You good?

Jeff: (off mic) Yeah.

Tiberius

BC: Thank you. Thank you very kindly, thank you very much. My name is Billy. Jeff, Brad...Herr Mark. Thank you for being with us today, like to play an oldie but a goodie. (a few quiet cheers) Don’t cheer too loud.

Tonight, Tonight

BC: So this, uh, this next number is from the new album, it’s called Drum and Fife and uh, it’s for all the soldiers in the world, fighting the good fight, lots of ‘em. (no crowd response) You’re supposed to cheer for the soldiers. (crowd cheers) At least that’s the way I plan it in my mind.

Drum + Fife

Glass and the Ghost Children

Disarm (abandoned after brief intro strumming)

BC: Oh, wrong song, I see. It’s called Monuments.

Monuments

BC: Alright, carry on.

Disarm (abandoned after 4 seconds)

BC: By the way, I wanna say this record was once banned by the BC--BBC, so...not today.

Disarm

> Zero

Bullet with Butterfly Wings

BC: Well, we’ve reached the end of the road. (crowd protests) Yes, it’s a dark road, but it is the end. So thank you so much, thank you BBC.

Guy in crowd: More!

BC: One more song, yeah, of course, yeah. There’s always one more song, isn’t it? Doesn’t mean you’ll like it.

Guy in crowd: Tonight!

BC: We played that one already. (people yelling for songs) See, when Americans shout for songs, it annoys me, but when English people shout for songs with the accent, it annoys me more, I don’t know why.

Guy in crowd: To Sheila!

BC: (British accent) To Sheila. (normal) It’s like, (British accent) “Oh, oi! You, you boy over there, play this song for me!”

Lady in crowd: Least you’re not worried about a shitty night, you [unintelligible word] this time.

BC: Hahaha! God bless you, thank you so much, thank you everybody, really, honestly.

Fame

Lady DJ: Smashing Pumpkins, ladies and gentlemen, thank you so much, guys!
