(Iha at 1:11: Ladies and gentlemen. Ladies and gentlemen. On the piano, on the piano, Mr. Mike Garson. On the crazy keyboards, crazy keyboards, Mr. Chris Holmes. On the bass guitar, all the way from Montreal, Miss Melissa Auf der Maur. Alright. Laying down that Kentucky groove, Mr. Badass himself on the drums, Mr. Jimmy Chamberlin! Makin’ that guitar talk and lead vocals, Mr. Billy Corgan! Yeah! Woo! (screams) You got it, you got it, you got it! I am Mr. James and I thank you very much.
BC: And in the John Travolta suit...he’s got the fever, it’s Saturday night, he’s feelin’ alright, he just got paid, Mr. James Iha! (Iha solos) Hey J, there you go.)
> Ava Adore / Batman Theme
BC: Thank you very much.
[encore break]
BC: Thank you very much, thank you very much.
Iha: Thank you, thank you.
BC: Before we, uh, play our last song tonight, we’d like to say thank you very much to the Smashing Pumpkins fans, thank you.
Iha: We thank you all.
BC: Does anybody speak English? Okay. Couple of things, uh, sorry about the show in Brussels. I’m very sorry. Please forgive me...again. Second of all, um, since it is our last show in Belgium, we’d like to say that we’ll never forget that the first European country that actually liked our band was Belgium, so....
Iha: You rock.
BC: It of course only took the Germans five albums to understand the Smashing Pumpkins. Five albums for the Germans. Four for the Italians. Four for the French. Uh...three for the Portuguese, so thank you. And uh, this may sound like an odd request, but my great grandmother was from Belgium and so, um...if anybody knows who my family was, heh heh, I’d really like to meet them. I’m sure, yeah, heh! Oh there you are, you’re my relative! Well, I did hear that in Belgium, all the brothers and sisters have sex, so maybe we’re all related.
Iha: What is this?
BC: I heard in Belgium all the brothers and sisters have sex.
Iha: Ohhh...I do not know of this.
BC: You didn’t have sex with your brother?
Iha: Well...uh...no, I am from America.
BC: Oh. In America, you have sex with your cousins!
Iha: God bless America.
BC: (laughing) Yes, so thank you very much, uh, and uh, heh, please uh, family phone home. Um, goodbye.
