Iha: Hello. We have decided to become one person. We haven't decided who’s the right side and who’s the left side. You wanted to be the right side, right?
BC: I'd like to take a moment to introduce the band to you this evening. On the killer bee piano, Mr. Mike Garson! On the Jabberwocky synthesizer, Mr. Christopher Holmes!
Iha: What is - what’s he got on there?
BC: (laughs) On the lead guitar, my friend and companion, Zlatko! On the thundering bass, Jürgen! On the mean spirited drums, Zlutko!

Iha: How is everybody? I feel you. Has the show been too long when we play thousands of songs? No, you're happy, everybody's happy. Oh my gosh, we're on video! Americans love the video camera. My whole life is a video camera. This is for that show Survivor, an American TV show, Survivor, so wave at the camera.
BC: Thank you very much, thank you very much. Before we play our last song, we’d like to say a very big thank you to everyone that has been a fan of ours here in Berlin. And it wasn't very easy to earn the respect of the people here in Berlin, but now that we've finally earned it, it feels very good, thank you. So, um, we hope you had a good time, thank you for an amazing concert, um, you made us feel very welcome and warm and uh, good feelings, you know, like uh, this thing right here.
Iha: We apologize for not knowing any German after touring here for eight years.
BC: You know “du hast mich.”
Iha: Yes.
BC: I know "fantastisch". James, James you've been fantastisch.
Iha: Ah! Ah, I like that.
BC: I think it means you’re a potato.
Iha: Oh, I like potatoes.
BC: So um, god bless you, we love you very much, thank you.
