MCIS (PA intro) Where Boys Fear to Tread Zero  Corgan: Hello. I'm gettin' a shock, sorry. I realize this isn't very professional, but I'm getting about 150 volts in my face, so excuse me. How are you doing? Thanks for coming. Uhh, I'd like to complain but I don't wanna die, so we'll just talk or something. Hello! Fuck You  Iha: Alright. I think we're back now. Wretzky: James, now is the time for you to say something witty. Iha: For those who don't know...witty. Wretzky: Witty. Iha: For those who don't know, sorry we're having technical problems, just getting all these fucking shocks in the mic. Wretzky: That's not funny. Iha: Well, that wasn't funny. But what was funny, is I saw Independence Day yesterday, I saw it with them and they hated it, but I thought it was fantastic. See, they loved it, everything was plausible. Wretzky: We wanted to see it in Washington DC because that part where they blow up the White House would make it seem much more realistic. Iha: Now that you said that and now htat all these people have cheered for the blowing up of the White House, all the FBI are gonna flag all the people in this entire stadium...we're just joking. You wanna play this one again? Amazing how these technical things can slow down a show. Corgan: Hello? Sorry, my mic's all fucked up. Iha: Alright. Let's get this thing together. Okay, continuing on about Independence Day, it was a fast paced movie and I enjoyed the acting. You didn't enjoy the acting? Bill Pullman, Jeff Goldblum...okay you can start booing us at this point. Don't worry, don't worry. Corgan: Nah that's alright. Thanks for your patience. To Forgive Tonight, Tonight Today Thru the Eyes of Ruby / By Starlight  Corgan: Well, glad you've excited yourself. Disarm Bullet with Butterfly Wings Cherub Rock Porcelina of the Vast Oceans / Beautiful / Rocket  Corgan: We appreciate your patience this evening, with our intolerably long songs. And uh, thank you very much for coming to the concert tonight. We've been coming to Washington Dc and Baltimore area since about 1990, and we've always had a great time here. So we thank you, old fans, new fans. We appreciate your support very much. This is one of our favorite songs from our album that came out like about ten years ago. Muzzle [encore break] Corgan: Thank you. Iha: You rock. In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida tease X.Y.U. Iha: Thanks, thanks. You're very kind. Corgan: Alright, I don't wanna get too serious on you for a second, but we need your attention for just a moment, James has something he has to tell you. Iha: I want you to boogie, yes, dance, I want you to dance 1979  [encore break] Corgan: Like to do a uh, old, old song. This dates back to our first album, Kinetic Premonition. It was only available on import in Detroit, so I don't know if you've got it, but this song's from our first album. Mayonaise Corgan: Thank you, god bless you. [encore break] Corgan: Thank you so much, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you. Iha: Thank you. Corgan: We'd like to have a little moment of honesty with you, we're good for that. Iha: Once in a while... Corgan: We'd like to apologize for sucking at the beginning of the concert. Iha: Come on, just admit it, we sucked. Corgan: You won't get a refund, but we apologize for sucking at the beginning and we're happy that you stuck with us and it's turned out to be a good show, so thank you. Iha: You see, we didn't have our mantra before we came on stage and like, you know things just get really far out when we don't have our mantra, you know what I'm talking about? I'm just kidding. Corgan: Hey, look up there to that girl, see that girl up there with the freaky light? Wait, do that light thing again. Iha: Wow. Corgan: Ah, they're not doing it now. Iha: Hey man. Corgan: The people in the expensive skyboxes that their father bought them, those people up there? Oh! Ah! Iha: You see there, that's the bourgeoise. Corgan: So I have just one question, Juwan Howard, is he staying with the Bullets? Iha: Not given a chance to, man. Corgan: I've heard rumors he's coming to Chicago. Iha: Hey, that's fine with me. Michael, Dennis, Scotty... Corgan: Juwan. Iha: Juwan, come on! The Chicago Bulls, come on! Give it up! We're from Chicago, and we're damn proud of them. Alright, I'm just kidding. Corgan: It's not enough, hey, Juwan's a great player, it's not enough we have the best team anymore, sorry. We had those two years where we didn't win so we have to kind of float with it. Iha: That's the Chicago way. Corgan: You want us to stop the concert because of that, I'm sorry, boo. Oh see now they're doing the light thing up there, see it? Hey Ethan can you put the lights on for a second. Alright, let's all give that person up there the finger. Iha: That's mind control. Corgan: In those skyboxes they get free popcorn and hot dogs. Iha: What do you think of that? Corgan: I don't see you getting any free popcorn and hot dogs down here. Iha: That's right, for every drink they get, for every drink you get, they get two, what do you think of that? Corgan: And in order for us to play here, we had to not only go up there and meet those people, we had to sign CDs and stuff. Iha: Down with the middle class, that's what I say, right now. Down with the bourgeoise, get rid of them! Bodies Silverfuck
