Zero Interlude Film

(BC: Ladies, gentlemen, friends, lovers, beasts or fowl, welcome to the show. We are the illuminated, the illustrious, the ill-timed knock. (two snare drum hits) Ah yes, we are the fractured, the schisms, the rift and the rabble, the sleepy clown, the atomized downs, the dreams you stopped dreaming oh so long ago. Yes, all colors mixed and marred make up the black, as do all numbers fix up the zero, zed and null. So let's go back to your beginnings, as I shall go back to mine. It won't last, it'll be quick, but then again, that's why we're here. No past, no future, no sun. So let's blow on fading embers, to boast about kings near, forgotten and buried. Tis the end. Tis the end. Tis the end.)

Zero

> The Everlasting Gaze

Stand Inside Your Love

Iha: Thank you, merci. Hello, Montreal, thank you so much for coming out, we appreciate it. How are you, ça va? Ça va bien. Alright, Quebec, a bunch more songs, so um...let's hang out.

Thirty-three (acoustic)

Eye

Soma

Vaudeville Interlude Film

(Mark McGrath: Well, hello there, neighbors! Are you enjoying the show thus far? Well, good, I am too, even though I'm not real. Now, if I could steal a moment of your time, I'd like to introduce somebody verrry special to you. He's been a friend and a neighbor to each and every one of you. He's been the voice you might hear in the stiiill of the night or a night dog straining against the moon. And, in fact, this young man has been with you almost every step along the way on life's long journey, sighing so ever soft. He's been a lover, a fighter, but never a cad. A beacon, a searchlight piercing every impenetrable fog. And he's here, just now, to sing for you, that golden chestnut we like to call Blew Away. So gather round, 'cause here he is: the one, the only, Mr. Jaaaaames Iha.)

Blew Away

For Martha

To Sheila

> Mayonaise

Porcelina of the Vast Oceans

Iha: Thank you, Montreal, how are you? Still with us? This is a very nice song by a very nice personal band.

Landslide (acoustic)

Tonight, Tonight

short lounge interlude (most is tape but Katie plays organ live)

> Stairway to Heaven

Iha: Stairway to Heaven by the Smashing Pumpkins. Cross that off the bucket list. Thank you so much, Montreal, how are you? You're fine? Alright, we got some more rock left for you. Oh! (splutters for a second) A quick introduction, on vocals and keyboards and guitar, Ms. Katie Cole. There she is, leaving. On bass, Mr. Jack Bates, all the way from Manchester, Manchester United. On the guitar, Southern California native, Mr. Jeff Schroeder. From Joliet, Illinois, on the drums, Mr. motherfuckin' Jimmy Chamberlin! (to Billy) What suburb are you...? What suburb can I name for you? What? Huh? A man of the world, Mr. Billy Corgan. I am James Iha, I'm ready to rock some more.

Cherub Rock

Vaudeville Interlude Film

(Mark McGrath: Well, wowie zowie, papa ooh maow maow! What a wang dang and doodle of a show. And, it ain't over yet. Now I don't know about you but this next tune is one of my faaaaaaves. Reminds me of drivin' down the old PCH, high out of my mind on ecstasy and I was singing the chorus of the song you're about to hear so hard and so on high, that one of my front teeth fell right out! Yup, plain out right there in the dashboard. Wow. That decade was just, just so good, wasn't it? I mean, here you have young wash masters rising up to start a musical and cultural revolution that was soon co-opted by the machine and driven asunder! Gee golly. But thankfully, what we got in return was just so much better. I mean, let's face it, who doesn't want perfection in their stars above? 'Cause perfect people making perfect, sweet music is, well, it's just, it's just what a god wants for all of us! Whoo! Red light, stop, it's raining. The air is cool and the sky is gray and the year? Well, it's 1979!)

Iha: Thank you, Montreal! Thank you so much. You guys are super awesome. You guys are c'est chouette, c'est génial. Heh, [unintelligible], I'd like to stay. But thank you so much for staying, our last song, what the hell?

BC: Thank you so much, thank you, thank you. We have reached the end of this journey. Thank you for taking this trip with us. I don't know what Montreal means in French, but it must be "to rock."

Iha: Heh heh heh heh.

BC: To rock!

Iha: I think when the - when this city was founded, it was definitely meant (high pitched) to rock!

BC: Anyway, we have one more song. We hope you know this one, sing along if you know it. If not, I'm very sorry for all the [2 unintelligible words].

Iha: Hahahaha! Well, this is train of thought.

BC: Just wanna play the (laughing) song.

Iha: Okay, alright.

BC: Here we go.
