Griffin

Disarm
> Rocket
BC: Good evening!
Geek U.S.A.
(BC alt last line: I fuckin’ love the U.S.A.!)
BC: Thanks for coming to our show.
Iha: Thanks a lot.
BC: Thanks for throwing free hats. And for you, thanks for being an asshole.
Drown
(BC after first verse: No more photographs! That’s it. You either.)
> Hummer
Quiet
I Am One
(BC midsong: All I ever wanted was everything and all I got was shit! All I ever wanted was everything and all I got was shit. What you want is what you’ll get and that’s nothing. What you want is what you’ll get and that’s nothing. And nothing can be taken from me that hasn’t already been taken. Nothing can be taken from me that hasn’t already been taken. Testify. Gimme gimme gimme gimme gimme gimme gimme gimme gimme gimme gimme nothing. Gimme gimme gimme gimme gimme gimme gimme gimme gimme gimme gimme nothing! Gimme gimme gimme gimme gimme gimme gimme gimme gimme nothing. Gimme gimme gimme gimme gimme gimme gimme nothing! 27 years. First time. For 27 years, I have lived with pain in my heart! For 27 years, I have lived with pain in my heart. And people tell me my pain ain’t real. People say that your pain ain’t real. “Why, there’s people starving. There’s people that don’t have things. That’s why your pain ain’t real.” I got the blues!...and the reds. (band stops) I got the blues...and the reds...and the greens too. Gimme gimme gimme gimme gimme gimme gimme gimme gimme gimme gimme gimme gimme gimme nothing! Gimme gimme gimme gimme gimme nothing. Just ‘cause you have a heart don’t mean you got no feelings. And just ‘cause you’re here don’t mean you’re here. Welcome to rock and roll, 1994. I’d like to thank all you crazy motherfuckers for wanting to participate. But to all you lazy motherfuckers who are sitting down, well, you just ain’t gonna get it anyway. Gimme some more of that nothing! That’s right. Gimme gimme gimme gimme gimme gimme nothing. James, you got the blues. Rock and roll!...is dead. Nothing!!! (band starts again) Ahhh!! Nothing! Yeah!)
BC: That’s from our first album.
Iha: [3-4 unintelligible words].
Soma
D’arcy: You know, I hear someone screaming for Chicago. But we’re not from Chicago! You know--
Iha: We’re from Davenport, Iowa, goddammit!
D’arcy: Well, no, that’s not true. Jimmy’s German and James everyone knows is an Eskimo. I’m Danish and Billy, well, he’s from, you know, somewhere outside Chicago but we’re not from Chicago.
BC: I dedicate this song to people who come because they see one song on MTV. (crowd roars) What’s the matter? Am I right?
D’arcy: Sounds like a lot of you out there who saw one song on MTV.
Smells Like Teen Spirit (tease - riff a few times)
BC: See? Well, to you I dedicate this song with all my rotten heart.
Today
Cherub Rock
