Zero Interlude Film
(BC: Ladies, gentlemen, friends, lovers, beasts or fowl, welcome to the show. We are the illuminated, the illustrious, the ill-timed knock. (two snare drum hits) Ah yes, we are the fractured, the schisms, the rift and the rabble, the sleepy clown, the atomized downs, the dreams you stopped dreaming oh so long ago. Yes, all colors mixed and marred make up the black, as do all numbers fix up the zero, zed and null. So let’s go back to your beginnings, as I shall go back to mine. It won’t last, it’ll be quick, but then again, that’s why we’re here. No past, no future, no sun. So let’s blow on fading embers, to boast about kings near, forgotten and buried. Tis the end. Tis the end. Tis the end.)
Zero
The Everlasting Gaze
Stand Inside Your Love
Iha: Hey, Baltimore, thank you so much. How the hell are you? Uh, thank you so much for coming out, we really appreciate it. We’ve got some more rockin’ to do, Baltimore, Maryland. Jack Bates, the bass player, is from England and he pronounces it “Merry-land.” I - I discussed this with him backstage and he refuses to come to the mic to talk about it, but I told him.
Thirty-three (acoustic)
Eye
Soma
Vaudeville Interlude Film
(Mark McGrath: Well, hello there, neighbors! Are you enjoying the show thus far? Well, good, I am too, even though I’m not real. Now, if I could steal a moment of your time, I’d like to introduce somebody verrry special to you. He’s been a friend and a neighbor to each and every one of you. He’s been the voice you might hear in the stiiill of the night or a night dog straining against the moon. And, in fact, this young man has been with you almost every step along the way on life’s long journey, sighing so ever soft. He’s been a lover, a fighter, but never a cad. A beacon, a searchlight piercing every impenetrable fog. And he’s here, just now, to sing for you, that golden chestnut we like to call Blew Away. So gather round, ‘cause here he is: the one, the only, Mr. Jaaaaames Iha.)

Whole Lotta Love (tease - first 4 notes)
Iha: We’re gonna do - we’re gonna do a couple more Zep songs, get the Led out. It’s, uh, Tuesday. No, it’s not Tuesday. On the drums, Mr. Jimmy fuckin’ Chamberlin! I’m James Iha, of course on lead vocals, lead guitar, Mr. Billy Corgan, let’s give it up.
Cherub Rock
Vaudeville Interlude Film
(Mark McGrath: Well, wowie zowie, papa ooh maow maow! What a wang dang and doodle of a show. And, it ain’t over yet. Now I don’t know about you but this next tune is one of my faaaaaaves. Reminds me of drivin' down the old PCH, high out of my mind on ecstasy and I was singing the chorus of the song you’re about to hear so hard and so on high, that one of my front teeth fell right out! Yup, plain out right there in the dashboard. Wow. That decade was just, just so good, wasn’t it? I mean, here you have young wash masters rising up to start a musical and cultural revolution that was soon co-opted by the machine and driven asunder! Gee golly. But thankfully, what we got in return was just so much better. I mean, let’s face it, who doesn’t want perfection in their stars above? ‘Cause perfect people making perfect, sweet music is, well, it’s just, it’s just what a god wants for all of us! Whoo! Red light, stop, it’s raining. The air is cool and the sky is gray and the year? Well, it’s 1979!)

BC: Woo! Gonna go jump in the harbor, man, it’s so hot. So hot here. Jump in the harbor.
Iha: It’s hot in Baltimore, Maryland.
BC: James?
Iha: Yes.
BC: James?
Iha: Yes, yes.
BC: You think the harbor is safe for swimming?
Iha: Uh, I don’t know, it’s probably pretty good. Just need some board shorts and uh, I don’t know what I’m talking about. There’s something nearby here, a body of water.
BC: James?
Iha: Yeah, sorry.
BC: You just have to try, try and try.
Try, Try, Try

BC: Baltimore, man, you guys rock fucking hard, wow. Heh heh heh.
Iha: Woo! I - I agree with that.
BC: It’s like the Ravens, man, the bruising Ravens style.
Iha: Oh, we’re going to go into sports now?
BC: They’re a football team, James.
Iha: Football?
BC: Anyway, god bless everyone, thank you for staying ‘til the end, wow, thank you so much!
Iha: Thank you so much. One evil hand, two evil hands. Thank you.
BC: You make us proud, thank you so much, god bless you. So we have just one more song. Hey, I could rock all night long if that’s what you want.

BC: ...Peaches & Herb. 4:20 man. Herb. Somebody was smoking some nasty weed up here.
Iha: They heard 1979.
BC: Is that Baltimore weed? Heh heh.
Iha: They heard 1979, they’re like, “Dude, we gotta bust it out now.” May I?
BC: Anyway, one more song, here we go.
