Corgan (interrupting Iha): It's called 'Mustached In Seattle'
Iha: It was mustache man...it was filmed in Montana but they called it 'Sleepless In Seattle', so uh, hope you like it
Drown/Hummer
Corgan: I'd like to say thank you to those of you who are actually listening, and thank you very much for staying. I realise it's kind of cold and blustery, not very pleasant conditions. Very much Illinois weather, I realise
Iha: How are you people doing out there? Not to be totally rock cliche, but come on, are you bored?
Corgan: But you are being totally rock cliche
Iha: Are you bored, are you tired, or..?*laughs* You're waiting to explode

Iha: Oh jaded New York, we thank you...it is very cold out, we appreciate you staying
Corgan: Sorry I yelled at you guys with the mustaches before...it's just uh, i noticed one of the guys was wearin' a John Starks jersey and I couldn't help but go after him...what was he uh, one for fourteen in the final, in the final quarter?
Iha: Now uh, if that were chicago...
Corgan: Alright, we're from chicago, you have to understand, there's kind of a Bulls rivalry thing
Iha: You understand that if maybe Mike Ditka would enter, maybe things would change
Corgan: How fucked is it that the giants dropped Phil Simms, ok, how fucked is that? Alright well, right, it's fucked up man...Phil Simms...he gave New York a lot of good years. Whatever, it's just fuckin' sports, chill the fuck out
Iha: Blood from a stone I say, blood from a stone
Siva

Iha (during middle section of Siva): I may be strong but I am big in spirit, owww! Play some fuckin' blues! Yeah you motherfucker! Play that fuckin' Blues! Owww!

Iha: Tonight is our last show
Corgan: Listen, this guy down here is yelling "you suck you suck you suck"...oh yeah, yeah i saw your band, yeah i saw your band last week, he really sucked. Get your band, you fuck! See, we, we're not, we're not afraid to just be the way we are, we're not tryin' to pretend for you that we're somethin' that we're not. If you don't like it, go home! Lord knows, all we're doin' is tryin' to have some fun. If you want your rock and roll so serious well, bring bring back Winger and Poison and all that kind of fuckin' stuff!
