BC: Thank you very much. Heh heh heh heh. Thank you. There’s no waking up. The world is asleep. It’s true, the world is asleep. Okay, America is asleep. Okay. France is awake, America’s asleep, it’s all the same, yeah, yeah, hahaha! It’s all good. Thank you very much for coming to our show tonight, thank you. Now, Jeff...I can tell we have some old school Smashing Pumpkins fans in the house tonight. They are awake.
Jeff: (off mic) [2 unintelligible words]. (on mic) [1-2 unintelligible words], heh, yeah, hello.
BC: Heh heh, heh heh heh. That’s Jeff. Over there, that’s Mike. And that’s Nee-cole.
Nicole: [unintelligible]. I have a French name, what do you know?
BC: Nicole is very awake.
Nicole: Heh heh, I try.
BC: Now in um....
Guy in crowd: [unintelligible]!
BC: I don’t speak French.
Nicole: Heh heh heh.
Guy in crowd: [unintelligible]!
BC: Yes, I understand. I’m asleep. In a few months -- or actually pretty soon, in a couple weeks -- it’s the 25th anniversary of the first Smashing Pumpkins show. Of course, Jeff and Mike and Nicole weren’t born yet.
Jeff: Hahahaha.
BC: They’re too young.
Jeff: Yeah, yes.
BC: But I was there.
Nicole: Heh heh. We were there in spirit.
BC: And uh, and I thank god for the chance to play for you and uh, the chance to come to your city and uh, thank you so much for coming. Now, see, god...is awake, very awake. And he knows those of you who have not listened to our new album, Oceania. Now who here has -– you might as well admit it to me now –- who has not heard the new album? It’s okay, it’s okay.
Nicole: Honesty is good.
BC: Okay. I won’t be going to hell, so I won’t see you there.
Jeff: This is like a big group confession.
BC: Yes.
Jeff: We’re Catholic...
Nicole: It’s healthy.
Jeff: ...they’ve become Catholic. Big, massive group of Catholics.
Nicole: Heh heh heh heh heh heh.
BC: Amen.
Jeff: Hahahahaha!
BC: So we’d like to play a –- for those of you who don’t know--
Jeff: Mike has some confessions before we begin, he’d like to say a few things.
Nicole: Hahahaha!
BC: Mike, do you like French women? Très beautiful, right?
Nicole: That was his big confession.
BC: But he likes French men more.
(4 second Mike solo)
Nicole: Yeah, right.
BC: Mike...is never awake. So for those of you who haven’t heard our new album, like to play a song from that. It is the title track, it is entitled Oceania.
