Kill Your Parents Siva Eye Mayonaise  Corgan: Thank you, thank you. Tonight, Tonight Speed Kills Transformer Superchrist United States Corgan: Thank you very much, thank you! Thank you. Well, you've survived the first part of the show, thank you very much for that. New York...they weren't sure about the first half of that show. Boston...little confused. You guys seem focused tonight, that's good. Gotta keep your game up. How's everybody doing, you okay? Yes...that sounded like a crowd at the end of the Cubs season, sort of like "Ehhhhh. Uhhhh. Ehhhh. Uhhhhh!" Everybody doing all right? (cheers) Corgan: Yeah! Yeah. Blackhawks fans! They're coming back, Jeff. They're coming back strong. After a thirteen year playoff absence, or whatever the fuck it is at this point! Jeff is our resident hockey fan, how many years has it been for the Hawks?...too long buddy, too long, heh. Audience member: Go Bears! Corgan: Somebody just yelled 'Let's go Bears'. That's a desperate man. Huh, if you still believe at this point my friend, you're a desperate man. (hocks) Audience member (Inaudible) Corgan: (coughs) Yeah, exactly. Anyway we'd like to uh, kick it down at this moment. Yes, kick it down. Slow - slow jams for you baby, right there. Some slow jams. That's right. That's right. Every night, slow jams for you. That's right. Heh heh...Chicago style, right here! (cheers) Now what is Chicago style, would you like to tell us?...a girl who likes to have fun? Right, okay. Number one. A good - a girl with a good rear end. Number two. That's right. Baby's got some back. We know it. Check it out! Check it out. Number three, standard issue Jennifer Aniston hair. Standard issue, for a Chicago girl...No-no-no-no-no? You're working more the Angelina Jolie...pre-Brad Pitt? What? What-what-what are we talking about here?...yes, God bless. See? We bore you and then we make you laugh. That's our gimmick, right here. I'd like to introduce the band to you. Starting on my far left...Ms. Gingger Shankar. Yes. To my right: Stephen. Stephen of Oakland. That's his design label. All the way from SoCal: Gabriel. Gettin' it done. To Gabe's left, Mr. Christopher Pooley. To his left, his betrothed...is that a word? Yes. Mrs. Ginger Pooley. On the keys, Ms. Lisa Harrington. On the drums, Mr. Jimmy Chamberlin. (cheers) Corgan: What'd you ever do for Joliet? Ha ha, ha...anybody from Joliet in the house? Yeah! Rockin' that...what is it, I-88? Rockin' I-88? Listening to Boston? Exactly. Anyway we'd like to kick it down...who am I, my name's Fred. Fred Durst, we're gettin' the Bizkit back together. Hang in there. (Starts Once Upon A Time, stops) Corgan:...oh, did I forget you? Ha ha ha! I didn't mean to! I didn't mean to. Ladies and gentlemen, an incredible guitar player. I'm gonna heap the praise, now. An unbelievable human being! Jeff "Shredder" Schroeder! (cheers) Corgan:...did I forget anybody else? Larry the gnome. Larry the gnome. Larry the gnome. I'd n-*ahem* I'd now like to sing a song about my deceased mother. But it's a song of hope. You'll understand. Once Upon a Time Again, Again, Again (The Crux) Audience member: More cowbell! Corgan: Yeah. (clears throat) It's all good, it's all good. Get it all out of your system, it's okay. It's all good, get it all out. Let it out. Now that we live in a democracy again, you can say whatever you want, you know? Let it ride, let it ride. The Rose March Corgan: Thank you very much, thank you. It's okay, it's okay. Don't be afraid of the dark. It's okay. I like the dark better, go back to the dark...Yes! Yes. Let it all out, it's good. It's good therapy....yes. Twenty years of people yelling at me. Believe me, I'm used to it. Get it all out! That's right, get it all out, my friend. Let it all out. I'm sorry, uh...I'm sorry for you, but...what can I do?...That's right. That's right, it seems so simple. Audience member: Go big or go home! Corgan: That was a good one. "Go big or go home." I don't know if you see I'm dressed in a white dress...I don't really rock to the sports analogies when I'm on stage, if you know what I'm saying. Heh heh. Know what I'm saying? Audience member: Thanks for coming! Corgan: Thank you, thank you for coming, thank you...no, let's just, let's just enjoy the awkward moment, it's good, come on. Enjoy it. Breathe it in! You don't get many anymore. You don't get any. Actually, you get some, but you don't get many. No, not many. Pre-programmed society to serve you. Awkward moments written out of the script. That's right. That's right. (inhales) Just breathe it in. (inhales) It's good! I love it! I love it...yes. (Audience members continuing to shout things) Corgan: Just let me know when you're done, and we'll pick back up the show. Just get it all out, come on! Just get it all out. (Cheering) Corgan: How 'bout up there, you got anything to say? C'mon! C'mon! There you go. Yes...yes, there you go! See, it feels good to yell! Feels good! it's okay. I'm just a symbol. I'm not even here. I'm zero. Zero. Nothing. There's nobody. I'm not a human being. I didn't grow up here. I don't exist. I didn't write these songs. I'm not even here. It's amazing. It's a figment of your imagination. Heh heh heh heh...hahaha....people! People! We're alive. Right, we're alive, yes? Are you alive? Yes, you, are you alive? This man's alive. That's what I wanna see. There we go. Today Bullet with Butterfly Wings The Beginning Is the End Is the Beginning Heavy Metal Machine Corgan: I'm your PERSONAL...Heavy Metal Machine! I'm your god-given Heavy Metal Machine. I'm your Chicago-born, bred, motherfuckin' MACHINE! Heavy. Metal. Machine. Heavy Metal MACHINE!....people of Earth! We ain't no little kids anymore. You didn't think the SP could crawl BACK! That's just facts, people.
