Iha: Thank you, very much. You guys have been awesome. So, how the hell was your Fourth of July, was it ok? I had a fine barbeque myself, so I'm glad you did too.
Corgan: I don't wanna be the bearer of bad news, but James was just talking shit about the Packers backstage.
Iha: Well, you know, da Bears, I gotta say I'm from Chicago. You know what I like? I like to have a good bratwurst, I like to wear my sportcoat, and watch the Bears. I love when they beat the Packers. But I do respect the power of the Pack, the power of the Packers. We recorded with a fellow Wisconsin person, Butch Vig, ya hey there. He taught us all there was to know about Wisconsin culture, which was...um...well it was beer and uh...and the Packers, and cheese! And he said that everyone's a very nice person here. And now, we will play for you a very nice song, this is 1979

Corgan: Could you put on the house lights for a second? Just wanted to say bye before we go into this next song. Thanks for having us and thanks for coming. Danke schoen, Germany! As many of you may know, we're touring on our new album Adore. You might have heard of it, I don't know. I'm not really sure where I was going with that.
Iha: I don't know, where are you going with that man? Right to the spaceship?
Corgan: I don't know, I had a whole thing worked out, but...
Iha: We're, we're...
