Bit 4 Intro Now and Then I’m Ready M.O.H. To Love Somebody A100 I Want You / Pride Johanna BC: Good evening. Thank you very much for coming. DIA Pretty, Pretty Star Bit 7 Strayz (Billy solo) BC: [unintelligible noise.] Thank you very much, thank you. I was just trying to see how sad I could make you. How low can you go? There’s, uh, some gentlemen over here that keep holding up a Rams banner. ... Does Georgia Frontiere still own the Rams? She’s kinda hot. There’s something about a woman with like 300 million that just turns me on. 400 million. Heh. How y’all doin’, you alright? You know, I have to tell you that, um, that, uh, when we originally made a tour, there was no date here, you know. And I said, “What about St. Louis?” (long crowd cheer)  And then about, about a month ago, I get this phone call, “Those tickets ain’t sellin’ in St. Louis. They got no, uh, they only got classic rock down there, they don’t play alternative any more.” Heh heh heh. I mean they have like a - they have one of those channels that plays all those bands all the time but.... Whatever those bands are called. All those bands with tattoos, whatever they’re called. And, um, then I start going “Dang it, why did I want to go to St. Louis? No one’s going to show up at the show.” And then here you are! ... Heh heh. Walking Shade The Camera Eye All Things Change BC: Thank you very much, god bless you. [encore break] I’m a King Bee > It’s a Long Way to the Top BC: Thank you! Thank you, St. Louis. [encore break] Bit 5 [bow] BC: Thank you very much, thank you very much. I don’t - I don’t have much to say, uh, that I didn’t already say in all those songs but, heh, excuse me, I’m talking. Uh, heh heh, I just wanna say that, uh, that, uh, this life I’ve chosen is kind of strange, I’m not always sure it’s a good idea but...but, shows like this, you reconfirm my faith to my job. So I’m - I’m very humbled by your love and support tonight, it’s been fantastic. And, uh, you know, next time I’m here when I’m playing at the Enormodome...or wherever, heh heh heh. ... All I gotta say is, uh, next time you see me out this way I will be crushing you into the dust with the metal. (mic drop)
