BC: Thank you. ... Thank you very much, thank you. ... Didn’t I used to go out with your sister? Anyway, like to take a moment...to introduce this fantastic band that I get to play in. Amazing, amazing musicians I get to play with every night. Great honor to be on the stage with them. On guitar, Mr. Jeff Schroeder, the Shredder. On the bass guitar, Ms. Ginger Reyes-Pooley. Show ‘em the ring, show 'em the ring, [unintelligible word]. On the keys, Ms. Lisa. And from Joliet, Illinois, my main man, Mr. Jimmy Chamberlin.
Once Upon a Time (acoustic)
Again, Again, Again (acoustic)
The Rose March (acoustic)
BC: Thank you very much. Before we begin part two of the show...like to say a few things. Number one: what a weird world we live in. Why do we live in such a weird world? Don’t know why. Please explain it to me. Number two: I’m totally insane, thank you. I’m not insane because I was born insane, this world makes me insane, thank you. Yes, we’re here to deliver a message of hope. Hope and change, that’s us. I know you’re all tired from marching in the street every day protesting the war, the economy, the ecology. Just like me, we’re all tired, somebody--so much marching. So much protesting. Heh heh heh. But I digress. Like to dedicate this song to you, yes. To you, I don’t know who you are, don’t know who you are, you don’t know who I am, think about that.
Guy in crowd: We love Billy!
BC: I love you too, I’d like to send this song out to you. Thank you for coming tonight, we appreciate you very much.
