Disarm
Stand Inside Your Love
The Aeroplane Flies High
> Hummer
BC: Thank you. ... Thank you very much. Yeaah. Told you it was a rock and roll party. Yeah, right. Uh, hahaha, is everybody alright, you doing alright? Who, uh, I heard a rumor the album leaked, anybody heard the album? Who here has heard the new Zeitgeist album? Wow. Who here doesn’t own a computer? Heh heh heh. Heh heh. Well, god bless you either way, you know what I’m sayin’? True fans don’t download, is that what you’re saying? True fans give their money to massive corporations. Which ultimately filter down in some sort of archaic draconian system that ends up with us with some pennies, so thank you! Jimmy now has two children and those pennies do add up. Heh. I, of course, have as many children as my namesake: zero. Guess my seed’s just not strong enough. Maybe I just need a platinum record, Jimmy, to get, to get my machismo back up. Mid-'90s I was super potent. You too, right? Heh. Thank you! Yeah, rock and roll party. We’d now like to play a couple songs from the internet leaked Zeitgeist. Available, uh, ahem, August 27th, 2008. This is a song called That’s the Way My Love Is.
That’s the Way
> Doomsday Clock
BC: Thank you very much, thank you. Thank you very much, we’re going to take a short intermission, let you all get high, get crazy, and then we’ll be back to play some more rock and roll. Thank you.
[set break]
Starla
> Starz
Zero
BC: Thank you.
Shame
Tonight, Tonight
Tarantula
For God and Country (acoustic)
BC: You wanna hear Freebird? Sure. That’s what he listens to when he drives his pickup. A dog in the back and uh....
Audience member: He’s fucking his sister!
BC: Exactly, and the - and the number three. I don’t know what that three means but I see it everywhere down here. I know what it means: three wives. I know what it means. I watch NASCAR when I’m held down. Just kidding. Heh heh. How’s everybody doing, you alright, you bored? You’re over it, you wanna go home? You don’t want any more sad songs? I could just play happy songs, there’s only about three of ‘em but I could play ‘em.
Daydream (Billy solo acoustic)
The Crying Tree of Mercury (Billy solo acoustic)
> Rocket (Billy solo acoustic)
BC: Thank you.
To Sheila (acoustic)
Silverfuck / The End
BC: This last song...this last song...this last song is called An Ode to No ONE!
Fuck You
(BC just before ending: Thank you!)
[encore break]
BC: Thank you. I’ve written some new songs, uh, here in Asheville. This is the music capital, right, Asheville? No, Nashville, alright. Yikes. Would you like to boo Nashville collectively? I don’t know what it did to you, but.... Um, so I’d like to play a few of those new songs for you. (first half of next sentence is overly enunciated) I would like to play a few of those new songs for you if you’ll indulge me, please, thank you.
If All Goes Wrong (Billy solo acoustic)
BC: While the band comes onstage, I’d like to take a moment, I haven’t really taken the time to thank the Orange Peel for being so incredibly hospitable to us. It’s really been a great time here in Asheville and, uh, the Orange Peel, uh, family couldn’t have been nicer to us and, uh, treated us, so let’s have a round of applause for the Orange Peel. You want me to thank you? No. Oh yeah, we, heh, we thought it would be funny - this is, uh, Smashing Pumpkins humor for you - we thought it would be funny to do a limited edition t-shirt: “Smashing Pumpkins Zeitgeist 4:20” since we’re in Asheville. ‘Cause literally, like, Grandma is a fucking stoner here, it’s unbelievable. So, uh, we did, we did a limited edition shirt because we thought it was funny, but now no one’s buying the shirt. Heh. Heh heh. So, we only made, I think, 250. We thought we, we thought it would sell out in a second ‘cause we thought everyone would get the joke but obviously no one did. So, even if you wanna sell it on eBay, we need to sell our Smashing Pumpkins 4:20 shirts because, um, if we don’t, we won’t have gas money to go to San Francisco in the van. It’s a long ride in the van to San Francisco and we need the gas money. So if you’ll just see, uh, Larry, Larry the shirt guy - “git ‘er done” - go over, heh, to Larry the shirt guy and get yourself a limited edition Smashing Pumpkins 4:20 shirt. Does not include, does not include the weed with it. (crowd boos) But we can guarantee a heightened sense of pleasure when you wear it.
Mama (acoustic)
BC: Thank you, that’s the end of the show, you can go home now. Go back to your, um, your cable TV. Go back to your 24-hour oblivion, your YouBoob, your MyPlace, your “internets” as George Bush would say. It is the internets.
Question Mark (acoustic)
BC: Thank you.
[encore break]
Cherub Rock
BC: Thank you, good night.
