BC: Thank you very much, thank you. So we’ve reached the part of the show where we focus on a particular album for a period of time. In the past, we’ve done Mellon Collie and Adore but tonight, we’re playing Siamese Dream. ... And the part that I enjoy about this is a chance to explore the material more closer to the way it was written. Unplugged, remember unplugged, that’s what they used to call it. Didn’t Pearl Jam go unplugged at some point? Heh heh. So I don’t know how many songs we do in this but we call it the Siamese suite so please enjoy.

BC: Thank you very kindly. ... So we’ve got a few songs left but before we finish, like to thank Ms. Liz Phair. Such an honor to share the stage with Liz. Chicago. There you are, heh heh heh. Come say hi. Come say hi. ... I mean, come on. Now, like to play a song by Hole. That was a long time ago...that I helped write this song. Now how much of this song I wrote.... It was a collaboration. I actually texted our dear Courtney today. She’s in Mumbai. I don’t know why she’s in Mumbai. There’s no beach in - or wait, there is a fake beach in Mumbai, right? Is there? Don’t they have a fake beach? Does Mumbai have a fake beach? You’ve been to Mumbai? It’s my worthless friend. So we’d like to play this song now by Hole called Malibu. Featuring Ms. Katie Cole.
