BC: [cuts in] ...favorite bands, Gene Loves Jezebel. And uh, it’s a great honor to bring out Jay and James from Gene Loves Jezebel to do one of my favorite Gene Loves Jezebel songs, Stephen, so please give them a warm round of applause and welcome them.
Stephen (with Jay Aston & James Stevenson, Billy plays Mellotron)
BC: Jay Aston and James Stevenson from Gene Loves Jezebel, thank you so much, thank you, thank you, great honor. Thank you so much, (taps mic twice) can you hear me? (taps mic three more times) Come on. Did you have a good time tonight? ... Can you hear me?, yeah, thank you so much everybody, thank you for coming, thank you. I really wanna speak for the band and say we appreciate you so much, thank you, thank you Brixton Academy, two great nights, thank you, amazing. We have a new album coming out next year, don’t forget about us. It’s called Oceania, so we’ll be back next year to play again, new album. Be back to kick your ass one more time, American style! Yeah, America. Hahaha! You remember America, don’t you? It’s where the Beatles are from, Jeff, America! The Rolling Stones and the Kinks, America.
Jeff: Oasis.
BC: Oasis, great band. Coldplay’s from like Indiana. You guys like Coldplay? They’re a good band. (crowd boos) Gwyneth Paltrow though, she’s English, right? Is Gwyneth Paltrow English? Hahahaha. These are called jokes, I don’t know if you know anything about jokes, we tell jokes. We know the sun never shines over here, so we know you’re fuckin’ miserable, we get it, it’s okay. Hey, I don’t have no fuckin’ prince or no queen, I don’t need no queen, I got my own queen right here (points at himself). I got my own Freddie Mercury right here (points at his heart). (crowd cheers) Like Freddie Mercury? He’s from my hometown of Chicago.
