The Smashing Pumpkins 2008-11-06: Difference between revisions

(BC during extended outro: She’s a reeeaalll life....   She’s a reeaaall life....  Long Island Transformer.  She’s makin’ it real.  She’s keepin’ it cool.  Ow!)

BC: That's right.  Thank you, NYC, thank you!  Lemme see some people, I wanna see some people.  Yeah!  I don’t know why we’re 40 feet away from you but, heh heh, maybe that’s a good thing.  How you doin’ up there, you alright?  Yeah.  People in the balcony rockin’ hard, yes.  Well yeah, we finally made it to New York, thank you.  ‘Bout motherfuckin’ time, Corgan.  Haha.  It took a while to find a venue where you were really far away, so....   That’s the way I want it.  I’m sorry, I don’t speak New York.  I speak Obama.  ''(big crowd cheer)''  Heh heh.  Ain’t no Giuliani in the White House, heh heh, O-ba-ma.  We’d like to kick it down for a moment.  You look tired to me.  ...  Heh heh.  Yeah, it’s all fun and games, yes.  Like to play a few songs...a heh heh heh heh heh.  I guess that’s what we’re doing up here, we’re playing some songs, right?, hahaha.  Heh, it just occurred to me, heh.  Yeah.  This song from the A-dory album.  Since I’m part Sicilian, I’d like to dedicate this to the Italians in the crowd.  We know you Italians like your sad songs, here’s a sad song for you.

Guy in crowd: Monster Mash song!

BC: Ladies and gentlemen, that’s the end of our show.  All good things must come to an end and even this concert must come to an end.  But before we go, we’d like to say thank each and every one of you from the bottom of our hearts.  ''(sings)'' Everything is beautiful in its own way.  Everyone is beautiful in their own way, ''(speaking)'' even those people leaving, you’re beautiful!  You’re beautiful, don’t let anyone tell you different.  That’s right.  The Smashing Pumpkins are in a lot of businesses and first or foremost, it’s the fun business, we’re in the fun business.  We've hope you’ve had fun, that’s what we’re about.  Because god knows if you don’t entertain us, oh wait, if we don’t entertain ''you'', that’s what it is, I forgot, I’m remiss in saying that.  ''(sings)'' Everything is beautiful in its own way, ''(speaking)'' each and every one of you.  I know I speak for Jimmy and the entire band when I say, this may have been the greatest concert we ever played!  Seriously.  The outpouring of love from the New York crowd always warms my cold heart.  The way most of you strolled in late warmly, the way you booed at the end of the show warmly, it warms my heart.  ''(sings)'' Everyone is beautiful, ''(speaking)'' yes, even when you boo, you’re beautiful.  Now we all know there’s only one band like the Smashing Pumpkins and that’s - there’s a very good reason for that, heh heh.  You’re wondering “What’s the reason?”  ''(no crowd reaction)''  Are you wondering what’s the reason?  ''(lukewarm crowd reaction)''  That doesn’t sound like wondering.  ''(more reaction)''   Are you wondering what the reason is?  If you don’t care, I don’t care, okay, that’s obvious.  Now who’s coming to tomorrow night’s show?  ''(fairly big crowd response)''  Thank you, thank you, you’re beautiful.  Sometimes you just gotta stop and think, right, Jimmy?

BC: Ladies and gentlemen, we have to go now, we have to go now.  See, here come those boos again.  Those are the kind of boos, hold on, take it down a second.  Those are the kind of boos that push the New York Yankees to the championships.

BC: Yeah, push them right over the top.  Derek Jeter hits the big home run.  “Boooooo!”
