As was rumored, Catherine is not playing tonight. Iha: Damnit! Corgan: This is the third Starchildren gig, the first one was about three years ago, the second one was about two years ago. OK...here's a toast to all of you's. Here Is No Why  Iha: Oh yeah! Everyone in the fuckin' house, come on people, let's see some hands in the air! Come on! Hey! I can't hear you, hey! Ho! Kickin' at the Double Door, here we go again, the bump and grind, R Kelly, midwest flavor, you know what I'm saying? We got motherfuckin Jimmy Chamberlin on the motherfuckin drums, that dope ass beat you're kickin. Mark Rew, Mark Rew from Catherine on the motherfuckin bass. Billy C from the Pumpkins on the motherfuckin guitar. Let me hear you, I'm your MC tonight, it's hotter than hell, yes, Stanley is in the house tonight, come on, I can't hear you, come on, yeah that's right, the Double Door, here we are doin it again. Corgan: Hey, tell the ladies how much you love them. Iha: Yes! All ladies, you is fine. It's fuckin hotter than hell. Alright, we're gonna kick it into another dope jam in another second, hang on...I said hang on. Corgan: I'm mister wiggle. Sorry about that, sorta fucked up my synthesizer. We're going new wave man, fuck this rock shit. Alright, hit it Mr. Iha. Iha: That's right, new wave. The Boy Germans in Leather Pants  Iha: Well, we hope we're not disappointing anyone with the new wave set. It's the new direction, we feel that it's the future of music, let's all get into it, come on. Feel the Funny War Jam  Iha: Thank you so much. Again, we'll be getting back to the music in a second. That was our War Jam. And now to the forefront, Jimmy Chamberlin. Jimmy Chamberlin. Corgan: We need lots of light on stage so I can read these lyrics, OK? Iha: Can we have a white spotlight for Jimmy Chamberlin, please? Corgan: Yeah, can you put the spot on from the back for Jimmy please? Iha: So Jimmy, what up? Corgan: Show 'em what you can do Jim...and you just thought he was a drummer. Iha: He's a dessert topping! Corgan: He's so fucking funky man. Iha: And on the drums, Mark Rew...come on everybody! Cars  Iha: Thank you. And now to the forefront, our friend of the night, Barry. Corgan: Hey James, wanna play a Pumpkins song? Ah, fuck that shit. Alright, it pays the bills you know? Today (tease)  Corgan: Just kidding, I'm sorry. Actually, thank you all for being so patient with us. It's awfully night to not be an angry dysfunctional youth for an evening. Tonight I will be playing the role of a well-adjusted 27 year old, thank you very much. This is Mary Magdalene, please welcome her. Junkie See  Corgan: This is the uh, Starchildren theme. It encompasses the subject of clean living, don't eat pork, read Malcolm X books, pay all your parking tickets, worship at the temple of Daley, get all your cutdowns, you know that shit. Delusions of Candor Numb Corgan: Alright, we'd like to do one more song. No encore, shit. Here are our five-feathered friends, the Frogs...where the fuck are you? Iha: Like to bring the Frogs out again...would like to bring the Frogs out again... Corgan: Alright, we need to get the Frogs out here. Frogs! Frogs! Iha: Just like Bad News Bears, let them play, come on. Corgan: Let them play! Here they come. Iha: Here they come, all the way from Milwaukee, amazing. Jimmy Frog: Gimme a beat. Corgan: Hey, where's your fuckin brother Dennis? Dennis you pussy, get up here? Iha: You know, me and Jimmy go way back, me and Jimmy go way back, we just wanna let you know. We used to play in the same band in junior high, the Hot Testers, that's why we've gotten together tonight. Jimmy Frog: Why don't you take off your shirt? Take your shirt off tonight for Chicago. Corgan: Yeah! Go on James, show us some tits. Iha: No, I will not bare myself. Corgan: You know, it's not a problem if he has three nipples. Iha: Oh, I thought we wouldn't bring that up again...alright Jimmy Frog: Everybody else take their shirt off here or I'm not playing. Iha: Does it make you a man to take your shirt off? Corgan: I too have three nipples. Iha: Here we go people, come on. Give Peace a Chance
