The Rose March (Billy solo acoustic) BC: Thank you! That’s the Way (Billy solo acoustic) Disarm (Billy solo acoustic) BC: Thank you. ... (coughs) As some of you might know, the last song, Disarm, that was recorded right up the road in Marietta. Is anyone here from Marietta? I feel sorry for you but....heh heh heh. Wow. Heh heh. Heh heh. If you’ll indulge me for one more song before I bring the band out. For God and Country (abandoned before lyrics) BC: This song is about our lovely country, the United States of America. I do love this country, don’t get me wrong. There’s a lot to love. Not the Bears, not the Falcons, my friend, sorry. Teams with losing records are not worth loving. But I would like to thank Michael Vick for coming tonight, thank you, Michael. For God and Country (Billy solo acoustic) United States Bullet with Butterfly Wings BC: Thank you, thank you. Well, welcome to our much-delayed concert. We hope it was worth the wait for you. I like to think we’re a better band than we were before. You’re seeing an improved band. Drown Bring the Light Tonight, Tonight Tarantula Glass and the Ghost Children > Hummer Pomp and Circumstances Set the Ray to Jerry BC: Thank you! Thank you. That was Set the Ray to Jerry. Those of you that own Pisces Iscariot. How’s it going so far, you alright? You alright up there? I don’t know. I don’t know. Where’s the girl with the “Take me backstage” sign? It’s a girl and her mother. Just kidding. I see that you’re two 30-somethings, is that correct? Okay. Sex and the City fans, I’m guessing. Right? More Curb Your Enthusiasm than Sex and the City, there you go. ...  Heh heh. I don’t know what any of it means, that’s all I know. Today Superchrist Heavy Metal Machine / Iron Man > On the Road Again > I Love Rock ‘n’ Roll BC at beginning: Atlanta, thank you very much for a great show! Thank you, thank you, thank you. We’d like to put your hands together, we would like you to put your hands, we would like you to put your hands together for us one time. Like to do a little sing along for a second. Make you feel like you got your dollar’s worth. We know you know the words to this song. Everybody knows the words to this song, even I know the words. (sings) “I love rock and roll...” BC at breakdown with no instruments: Alright, I wanna hear the balcony up there. I know you’re not singing up there. (sings) “I love rock and roll...” Ginger/Lisa (singing): “So put another dime in the jukebox, baby.” BC: You guys are hardly singing, what’s going on up there? You guys all drunk up there? You all high? You all doin’ PCP, what are you doing up there? Heh heh, heh heh heh. Oh, that’s right, it’s Atlanta, it’s mushrooms, isn’t it? I know you guys are all in the fields picking cow shit. One more time: (sings) “I love rock and roll....” (2-3 rounds later) What kind of singing is that? What’s going on? What’s going on, Jeff? You got something going on over there...in sector 8? Jeff: Got a lot going on over there. BC: Yeah? Jeff: Oh yeah, oh yeah. BC: Can we get the lights on for a second? I wanna see what’s going on up there. What’s going on up there? Jeff: There’s a mini you. BC: (laughing) There’s a little Billy. Can we bring that young man down here? Bring him down, we’ll - come on, let’s bring him down. Let’s bring that young man down. He’s like six years old, don’t boo him! I commend any parent for bringing their child in now. If you want your children to learn anything, obviously we’re great examples. We are living testaments of what not to do. Good example, for the young people. Let’s bring this young man down here, let’s see what he’s got to say. ... Alright, you can come up too, young man, any young people, come on. Oh, but your father did not dress you in the appropriate costume, that’s alright. There you go. Come on, young people. There you go. (crowd cheering)  Alright. See? They know what’s going on. I think he wins the award for youngest fan, come on up. Lookit, yeah, I’m loving it! ...  This kid’s not ready, this kid’s not ready. ...  Children in the womb don’t count. In utero, not a fan yet. Aww, he got scared. Aw, he’s scared. See? This young man understands, this is terrifying. That’s what you don’t appreciate, this is terrifying. See? This gives me hope. Lord knows we don’t have a clue but these kids do. Of course, now we’re gonna get sued for tramatizing this kid, but....  Heh heh. Alright, young people, get off our stage. Let’s give these kids a round of applause. (crowd cheers)  You guys are in a band? What’s the name of your band? What’s the name of your band? (kids shouting)  “Divorce”? Oh, G-Force. Like it, G-Force. Whose baby is this? ... Alright. Now those kids were singing. You’re going to sing. Are you gonna sing? One last time. If this was the Black Crowes, your asses would be singing. You’d be all singing Remedy and Shake Your Money Maker. We like the Black Crowes! This is old school, Junior, old school right here, this is how it used to be right here, lot of talkin’. Alright, last thing - we appreciate you, we appreciate you a lot. Appreciate you. We realize that about 99 percent of the bands out there are kissing your fucking ass! You know what I mean by that? They’ll do anything, anything to please you. Okay? This band ain’t about kissing your ass, I’ll tell you that, so we appreciate you for listening to us and giving us support. Because lord knows we’re never gonna kiss your fucking ass. Alright, one last time because we believe in it so much. Rock and roll, it’s helped us all so much. Give me a beat, Jimmy. (Jimmy starts playing) (sings) “I love rock and roll...” (BC during big rock ending: Thank you very much! Thank you, thank you.) [encore break] 1979 (Billy solo acoustic) BC: Mr. Jimmy Chamberlin. ... Jimmy, uh....   Hold on one second, this is serious. Jimmy, uh, he’s an amazing drummer, right? You’re better than me on the drums. Jimmy’s not a very good talker. So because of postponing the concert, Jimmy wanted to come out and apologize in mime. ... But he’s still in the box. Perfect (Billy acoustic w/Jimmy tambourine) BC: Thank you very much, thank you. [encore break] Cherub Rock
