Alt MCIS Intro Disarm (Billy solo acoustic) Rocket Siva Rhinoceros Space Oddity Drown Zero Interlude Film (BC: Ladies, gentlemen, friends, lovers, beasts or fowl, welcome to the show. We are the illuminated, the illustrious, the ill-timed knock.  (two snare drum hits)   Ah yes, we are the fractured, the schisms, the rift and the rabble, the sleepy clown, the atomized downs, the dreams you stopped dreaming oh so long ago.  Yes, all colors mixed and marred make up the black, as do all numbers fix up the zero, zed and null.  So let’s go back to your beginnings, as I shall go back to mine.  It won’t last, it’ll be quick, but then again, that’s why we’re here.  No past, no future, no sun.  So let’s blow on fading embers, to boast about kings near, forgotten and buried.  Tis the end.  Tis the end.  Tis the end.) Zero > The Everlasting Gaze Stand Inside Your Love Iha: Thank you so much, thank you so much. Tampa. Florida. Home of hurricanes and gators. How are you? Somebody told me that wherever there’s water, there’s a gator. Is that true? I’d - I’d be so paranoid about gators but I’m not gonna get into that right now. Let’s get back to the music. Thirty-three (acoustic) Eye Soma Vaudeville Interlude Film (Mark McGrath: Well, hello there, neighbors. Are you enjoying the show thus far?  Well, good, I am too, even though I’m not real.  Now, if I could steal a moment of your time, I’d like to introduce somebody verrry special to you.  He’s been a friend and a neighbor to each and every one of you.  He’s been the voice you might hear in the stiiill of the night or a night dog straining against the moon.  And, in fact, this young man has been with you almost every step along the way, on life’s long journey, sighing so ever soft.  He’s been a lover, a fighter, but never a cad.  A beacon, a searchlight piercing every impenetrable fog.  And he’s here, just now, to sing for you, that golden chestnut we like to call Blew Away.  So gather round, ‘cause here he is: the one, the only, Mr. Jaaaaames Iha.) Blew Away For Martha BC: Thank you very kindly, thank you. To Sheila > Mayonaise Porcelina of the Vast Oceans Iha: Thank you so much. Thank you so much, Tampa. We really appreciate it. Thanks for coming out. Billy, would you like to talk about your time in St. Pete? That’s a no, okay. Heh. Couple of the old local stories. Landslide (acoustic) Tonight, Tonight Stairway to Heaven (BC over very end: Jeff Schroeder on the guitar!) Iha: It’s just like the 70s. As soon as we start playing Stairway, somebody lights up some pot. Things don’t change. Cherub Rock Vaudeville Interlude Film (Mark McGrath: Well, wowie zowie, papa ooh maow maow. What a wang dang and doodle of a show.  And, it ain’t over yet.  Now I don’t know about you but this next tune is one of my faaaaaaves.  Reminds me of driving down the old PCH, high out of my mind on ecstasy and I’m singing the chorus of the song you’re about to hear so hard and so on high, that one of my front teeth fell right out!  Yup, plain out right there in the dashboard.  Wow.  That dickens (?) just, just so good, wasn’t it?  I mean, here you have young wash masters rising up to start a musical and cultural revolution that was soon co-opted by the machine and driven asunder!  Gee golly.  But thankfully, what we got in return was just so much better.  I mean, let’s face it, who doesn’t want perfection in their stars above?  ‘Cause perfect people making perfect, sweet music is, well, it’s just, it’s just what a god wants for all of us! Whoo! Red light, stop, it’s rain. The air is cool and the sky is gray and the year? Well, it’s 1979!) 1979 > Ava Adore BC: (high pitched voice) No, we must never be apart. Never ever.  Never ever ever ever [unintelligible].  ...  (normal) Oh yeah.  (low) Tampa.  (frog in throat) Keepin’ it real.  (normal) A heh heh heh heh heh heh heh ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha.  Woo!!!! Iha: Gotta let people in on the joke. BC: Wooo!!!  That’s all I can say.  Woooo!!! Iha: Heh heh heh.  Well, I know what you’re saying. Try, Try, Try The Beginning is the End is the Beginning > Hummer Today Bullet with Butterfly Wings BC: Tampa, thank you so much.  Thank you. Iha: Thank you so much. BC: We wouldn’t be here if it wasn’t for you so we appreciate you so much, thank you.  And I know I speak for Phil and Jerry and Todd and Jack.  Katie! Iha: Katie Cole. BC: Ms. Katie Cole. Iha: Katie Cole [unintelligible] from Australia. BC: She is. Uh, we thank you so much from our family to yours, thank you, thank you. We hope you’ve enjoyed the show. This is our final number. Iha: And now that we’re family, I’m comin’ over for Thanksgiving. So just write down your address. Write down your address, I’ll come over for Thanksgiving. BC: It’s our final number, it’s our final number, I promise this is our final number. Okay. Muzzle [encore break] Solara Iha: Last song. Thanks so much. Baby Mine (Jimmy plays ukulele) (Iha towards beginning: ‘S kick-sa. ...  I meant to say you were kickin’ ass on the drums and now you’re kicking ass on the ukulele!)
