Iha: Grrrr. Thank you, thank you, thank you very much. We would like to say hello to all the people up there on the third balcony. We, um, appreciate your enthusiasm.
D’arcy: Yeah right...
Iha: To the people on the second....
D’arcy: ...yeah yeah, James, right, James isn't even wearing his glasses, someone told him there was a third balcony but I could see you and you look great!
Iha: And to the people on the second balcony...
D’arcy: I have contact lenses.
Iha: ...keeping the faith.
D’arcy: Billy, hey hey hey!
Iha: The people over there, the people over there....
D’arcy: I want you to know something. I want you to be quiet. Billy was almost an astronaut...but he chose to be a rock star instead, he has more than 20/20 vision, he can see all of you.
Iha: This is true and while....
D’arcy: So you better be smiling.
Iha: And while Jimmy - while Jimmy was gone, he became a great explorer.
BC: Wait wait, I got a good joke. I got a good joke about me though.
Iha: About what?
BC: I got a good joke for me.
Iha: Alright, let's hear it.
BC: Rather than choose outer space, I chose inner space. (Iha laughs) That was very cheap, I know you like that.
Iha: That was actually pretty funny. Alright, let's keep the show rolling. Thank you very much, Jimmy. Two shows only tonight, Pumpkins. We're gonna go back to one of our older records and uh...I know you like the old songs, this is called Muzzle.

Soma
BC: God bless you, thank you, goodnight, thank you so much. God bless you all, thank you.
