(BC after Jimmy solo: Mr. Jimmy Chamberlin on the drums!)
Iha: [cuts in] We’re just gettin’...we’re just gettin’ to the real part of the show now. By the way, [unintelligible]–-
BC: Is this where we play the hits? This where we play the hits?
Iha: Yes, heh. Now we’re gonna get to the real part of the show.
BC: Thank you so much, thank you, thank you, thank you. Heh heh, we’re up there with the luckiest people on this planet and you make that possible, so we thank you so much from the bottom of our broken hearts. Heh! You know, James, I was gonna say something clever here, but now I think it’s a bad idea.
Iha: Whatever you wanna do, heh heh heh.
BC: I had this whole set up, I was gonna talk about love.
Iha: You’ve lived here once in Saint Pete.
BC: I did!
Iha: You could talk about Saint Pete.
BC: 1985. 1985, I lived in Saint Pete.
Iha: You wrestled with alligators once, you told me.
BC: Before I knew you, way back when.
Iha: You said you enjoyed wrestling with alligators. I can’t believe you people live with alligators all the time, it’s insane, and sharks.
BC: We don’t have alligators in Chicago?
Iha: They’re in the sewers during the winter. They winter in the sewer of Chicago.
BC: Listen, if we’ve learned anything over the last 34 years, it’s that we’re not funny. We’re not funny at all.
Iha: This is where we freestyle.
BC: We look funny, but we’re not funny. My favorite thing to hear coming up out of the crowd is “Shut up and play.” “Shut up and play.”
Iha: Heh heh.
BC: So the joke I was gonna make, I’m not gonna make it now.
(crowd boos)
Iha: I gotta joke for you.
BC: Should I make the joke?
Iha: What?
BC: Should I make the joke?
(crowd cheers)
Iha: Oh yeah, okay.
BC: Okay!
Iha: I got a joke too, here we go.
BC: Okay, you were warned now, you were warned. Okay, you were warned, so don’t get mad at me. I was gonna say, “James, like to play this next song about love. The broken hearted, if you’re out there suffering from a broken heart, we send our love to you. Doesn’t matter if you’re high or low in life, if you’re a rock star or a starting quarterback in an NFL franchise, we all get a broken heart.” See, they don’t like my joke!
Iha: It’s very timely. I’ve seen....
BC: Number 12!
Iha: We’re gettin’ uh, heh heh, we’re gettin’ some advice from the side, we gotta wrap this up.
BC: It’s okay. As you know, James, when they boo you, they’re not booing, they’re yelling “Lou.” Lou, Lou.
Iha: I like Lou, he’s great.
BC: Okay, this is a little song we like to call –- and we dedicate this to you –- it’s called Tonight, Tonight.
