(Fan into mic during quiet part before outro: Woo!!! Fuck yeah!!!! Smashing Pumpkins!!! ... Woo! Billy Corgan! Billy - give it up for Billy Corgan, everybody! Give it up [unintelligible]! Give it up for James Iha! Give it up! Give it up for Jimmy Chamberlin! Give it up for Melissaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!! ... Okay, we’re gonna sing a song. Let’s sing a song that I know. I’m in a dream here, I’m in a dream, this is the best band I’ve ever fucking heard in my life, man. Wooo!!! I’m a college girl and I’ve loved this band since the fuckin’ 5th grade, man. I’m a college girl! Woo!! Woooo!!)

Today
BC: Thank you very much, thank you. ... How’s everybody doing? ... Is this - we have some rowdy rich kids in the front, we’re not quite sure what they’re about. (crowd boos) Are you booing me or the rowdy rich kids? Rich kids? Or me - you booing me? I’m used to being booed so it’s okay. We’d like to do a song, um, off our Adore album, it’s called Perfect.
Perfect
> Bullet with Butterfly Wings
> Once in a Lifetime (ends midway through normal spoken word part)
BC: Here we stand on the tippy toes of the moment of now. Crushing, crashing, destroying and spinning out of control. Gimme an A, gimme an M, gimme an E, gimme an R, gimme an I, gimme a K, gimme an A. What’s that spell? America. (screams) Yes. Yes, Mickey Mouse too. ... Thank you.
We Love You (tease - Billy plays the riff once and Melissa follows)
BC: We always stop at this moment to sort of, uh, oh, hi. We stop at this moment to honor this moment because we are alive, we are breathing, we are experiencing. Even some cases enjoying and uh, loving, giving you love, receiving it. Passing it back. ... That’s cool, thanks.
[encore break]
Iha: Thank you, thank you very much. How are you guys doing out there?
BC: Uhhh...I got this letter from this lady, um, it’s her daughter’s birthday. Her name is Erin. Erin, where are you? Where art thou Erin? Oh, she left already. Oh, there’s Erin. Happy birthday Erin. Oh, sorry, it was from your dad, heh heh...Jerry Springer.
