Jeff: We’re havin’ fun still, right? (crowd cheers)
BC: So those of you, uh, who follow us with regularity know that we’re, uh, starting with the album tonight. Our new album Oceania (pronounces “O-cee-ania”). Although up here, they say (Michigan accent) “Oceania” (pronounces “O-she-ania”). (normal) Heh heh.
Jeff: “Up here.”
BC: Up here...
Jeff: Up here.
BC: ...wherever we are.
Guy in crowd: [unintelligible]!
BC: Hahahahaha! Exactly. So uh, thanks so much, uh, we’re about halfway through the record and then we get around at the end to playing, uh...what do we, what do we play? Some dusties and some classics. Some Motown.
Nicole: But only if we’re in the mood, right?
BC: (pointing into crowd) That person over there wants to hear some dusties.
Nicole: (pointing to same spot) That one [unintelligible word].
BC: Hahaha. Heh heh. Will you stand–-will you, sir, will you be standing when we play the dusties or will you be sitting then too? Heh heh heh, just checkin’, just checkin’, heh heh. Alright, thank you so much, this is the title track from our album, it’s called Oceania.
