Iha: Thank you, thank you. Ça va? Ça va bien d'accord. Voila. Ah.
Melissa: Oh, bonsoir, Toulouse, bonsoir, hello. [lots of French] It’s the day of the free artist today in Toulouse. Okay, [speaking French]. Sur la piano, c’est Monsieur Michel Garson.
Iha: [unintelligible noise]
Melissa: [speaking French, introduces Chris Holmes, Jimmy, Iha, Billy]. Merci.
Iha: And, heh heh, oh, I don’t speak French very well. And on the bass, from Montreal, Miss Melissa Auf der Maur. C'est bonne.
BC: James?
Iha: Yes?
BC: I’d like to say a few things before we play our last song here tonight in Toulouse.
Iha: Alright. Ho. Say it ain’t so, chapeau.
BC: Seeing as it’s the last song, we have nothing to lose.
Iha: (laughing) Excusez moi.
BC: I am like the great mime Marcel Marceau...but with words.
Iha: Yes, yes. We are fascinated as Americans by Marcel Marceau. Is that true? Isn’t that not true?
BC: If it wasn’t for mime, who knows where the world would be right now?
Iha: Mime is...money. Okay, so....we’ll stop.
BC: Alright.
Iha: We have many - we have many terrible, terrible American jokes and we should play songs before we [unintelligible].
BC: So before we play this song, we like to thank you, thank you very much, god bless you for coming to see us tonight.
Iha: On the mic, one(?).
BC: And in tribute, we’d now like to play Bob Seger’s Night Moves. It’s only funny up here. So, to all the Smashing Pumpkins fans, thank you very much for ten great, fantastic years. Thank you.
