I Am One
Zero
Iha: Thank you. Yo, yo, thank you, thanks a lot. This is uh, the third show of our tour and we're glad you guys came out tonight. Yes, Jimmy is back and I really don't know what else to say...other than we're gonna rock some more. After this technical difficulty. There's this thing with guitar gates and when guitar brakes break, it kills the whole show. Alright, we're gonna go back to our last album. This is a song called Pug.
Pug

D’arcy: You're screaming - what are you screaming? Ah. You had it together a minute ago. Were you screaming "Jimmy"? You mean you've heard of him? Yeah. It's good to have him back, isn't it?

[encore break]
Iha: Thank you, thank you very much. You guys have really been great. I have to say it's very very hot. And one, one time -
BC: Really? I hadn't noticed, James.
Iha: I saw this Elvis movie one time and uh, he played this really hot gig in Atlanta and he was like, “‘nother, ‘nother hot night in Georgia.” I guess you had to see the uh, the video but it was uh, kind of interesting.
D’arcy: Are you guys like a, some kind of club or something? Or are they selling those with the T-shirts?
BC: It's that Stonewall Association again.
Starla (tease - almost one complete run through the riff)
Iha: No, we - we haven't, we haven’t rehearsed this song. We're glad that you've uh.... We're uh - power to the people, but we have not rehearsed this song. We uh, we appreciate your enthusiasm. We'll be returning back to the normal rock set and uh, we hope you'll keep on rocking.
Muzzle (stopped after Billy transposes the lines “and I knew the emptiness of youth” and “and I knew the solitude of heart” and Jimmy plays wrong fill)
BC: Haha! You’re fired, Jimmy! Aw, he’s entitled to one mistake.
Iha: Owwww!!
D’arcy: Everyone, it’s been nice to say hello and now we’re saying goodbye.
Iha: Ow!! That was great.
BC: Alright, uh, eighth time through so they can edit it for the bootleg, ready?
Muzzle (continued with “and I knew the murmurs of the soul”, stopped immediately after when Jimmy plays wrong fill)
BC: No, the eighth time, you know? The last one, you know, the...? Heh. 1234.
Muzzle (continued with “and I knew the murmurs of the soul”)
(BC alt lyrics: And I knew, heh, the murmurs of the soul / And I knew the silence of the earth / And I knew the ice cream in your heart / And I knew the silence of the world / And I knew the silence of the world)
