BC: Thank you.  You know, when I was, uh....can you hear me?
BC: Thank you.  You know, when I was, uh....can you hear me?
Iha: Yes.
Iha: Yes.
BC: I’m not very good with talking anymore so...excuse me.  Um, when I was a little boy, you know I used to go out in the backyard and stare up at the stars and imagine that it was all these people out there, you know, and it’s sort of the same feeling playing for you, it’s like you’re out there and it’s up there.  But then again at the age of 14 if I’d imagined about 4,000 people in my backyard listening to me sing, it would have terrified me and I probably wouldn’t have started playing guitar so sort of counterintuitive if you think about it.  I’d like to play, uh - this, wait, you want to marry me?  Wait, what’s this sign?  No no no no, no no, you do not want to marry me, trust me.  The sensitive songwriter part only comes out in the band.  But this is to the girl who wants to marry me.  And in fact, some of this song has to do with somebody that I was married to back in the old days.  ‘Course she’s in jail now and um....  She’s serving 20 years for grievous misuse of my love.

BC: Thank you, thank you.  Before we play our last song...yes, it’s the last song, I’m sure.  I used to lie and say it was the last song but I really didn’t mean it but I mean it now.
(BC at beginning of second line: ''(laughing)'' Ah shit, I forgot the words already.)
''(Jimmy solos for a few seconds and then continues the drum beat; Billy counts in and begins with the lyrics immediately)''
