BC: Hello, hello, hello. Hello everybody, how you doin’? Actually, it’s “how y’all doin’?” You know, Jeff, this global warming shit, I just don’t know what to do, the planet’s heating up. [Billy was wearing a hat with ear flaps earlier in the show and is still wearing a scarf.] Global warming, right? That’s what the kids are into. You guys into global warming? Nicole, are you into global warming?
Nicole: I don’t know how to answer that.
Jeff: She likes wearing the jacket. [Nicole is wearing a jacket.]
BC: Hahahaha!
Nicole: Thank you, I wish.
BC: Memphis, thank you so much for sticking around for us, thank you. Home of Jerry “The King” Lawler. The King! Jerry “The King” Lawler. You havin’ a good time, festival goin’ alright for you? We’d like to play a song from our most recent album called Oceania. Not that we endorse drugs, we don’t. If you’re not on - but if you, if you are on drugs, this is a good song. Is anyone out there on drugs? This is the Get High State, right? Missouri, Show Me. This is the Get High State. Get High and get warm. Global warm - it’s the Global Warming State. Anyway, god bless you, we love you so much, thank you, thank you. In a few months, it’ll be the 25th anniversary of the Smashing Pumpkins. And uh, I don’t know if any of you believe in god but uh...if it wasn’t for you, I wouldn’t be here, so god bless you - it’s okay, you can give god a thumbs down. It’s always the guy with the beard who gives god a thumbs down. He’s got a - the hipster mustache and he’s...he works at Whole Foods, he’s like (giving thumbs down) “Fuck god.” Because it’s god that’s heating up the planet, you see. God’s doing the global warming, yeah. God’s the lover and he’s heating up the planet. Anyway, a song called Oceania.
