Iha: Good evening. Tonight, Tonight Corgan: Alrighty Jimmy. In the Arms of Sleep Corgan: Thank you so much. Ah, there it is. Cupid de Locke Corgan: Thanks. Thanks so much. It's a pleasure to be here with you this evening. Of course, that's assuming we know what pleasure is, but if we do...we're slightly esoteric. It was like, we're happy to be here, but if we knew what happy was...confused again there? Thirty-three  Corgan: Like to play you a song that I wrote back in 1912, it's one of my favorites, and hope it's yours as well. Today  Wretzky: Back in, back in 1912 that used to be a square dance. Iha: That was just... Wretzky: Great square dance, yeah. Corgan: And then the rocket ray descended, god bless it. Lily (My One and Only)  Corgan: Thanks a lot. We'd like to take you down to the underground. Right to the undertow. We don't know who lives there, maybe some gnomes, but that's where we're going. Take Me Down  Corgan: Good god! I believe you got on the good foot on that one. Iha: Thank you. Beautiful  Corgan: Thanks thanks thanks thanks thanks thanks thanks thanks thanks. Wretzky: Thank you for the flowers. Iha: We like flowers. Corgan: Flowers are good. Iha: Flowers grow. Corgan: Trees are bad. Flowers are good. Iha: Trees are bad. Flowers are good. Corgan: People are good? Iha: People are sometimes good. Corgan: People are good, yes, people are good, yes. Iha: People are dualistic, good and evil. Corgan: People are good. Iha: People are good. Corgan: Gods are great. Iha: Gods are crazy. Corgan: Like to play another song from the 20s. Iha: This goes all the way back, about three years ago. Corgan: It seems so fucking old, doesn't it? Rocket Disarm Corgan: God bless you, thank you. [set break] Mellon Collie and the Infinite Sadness (PA intro) Where Boys Fear to Tread Zero Fuck You 1979  Corgan: Thank you. I wrote that song actually in 1979, when I was twelve. It's pretty good for a twelve year old. Bullet with Butterfly Wings Thru the Eyes of Ruby  Corgan: Nah, we don't play Gish stuff anymore. We're not the original lineup, so why should we play the first album? Porcelina of the Vast Oceans  Corgan: I'd like to mention that Jimmy here's got the stomach flu, he's been throwing up all day, so...let's not applaud his throwing up. Wretzky: Yeah, so stay away from him after the show, you don't wanna catch it. Corgan: He wanted to the cancel the show and we said no! Wretzky: Yeah, we'll make him play. Corgan: Please say thanks to Jimmy for being a trooper, he will thank you in person after the show. Iha: And uh, also, well we haven't introduced our keyboard player, our keyboard player is Jonathon Melvoin. Corgan: He's over there James, look. Iha: Well, he's not on stage. Corgan: You can see him though. Iha: He's left the building, left the building. Jellybelly  Corgan: Like to do another sad song from Mellon Collie and the Infinite Sadness, 'cause that's what the whole damn thing's about. To Forgive Geek U.S.A. Cherub Rock  Iha: Thank you. Goodnight! [encore break] We Only Come Out at Night  Corgan: That was our one singalong song, but since you don't know the words to the singalong it kind of defeats the point, so I guess that's the song. Wretzky: I didn't know we did singalongs. Iha: I guess we shouldn't have put it on the record. Corgan: Seeing as how we're preparing for our big arena rock tour, we're trying to figure out what songs are gonna be the big singalong songs, so... Iha: I guess that's not gonna work. Wretzky: I don't know, it didn't say that in the program. Corgan: What now? Wretzky: Didn't say that in the program... Corgan: In case you didn't know, that was We Only Come Out at Night...a little jazz. Iha: And now we'll get back to some familiar rock territory, I know you wanna rock. I am sorry the song didn't rock you. what? Pray tell me what you speak of. Bad Religion? Sure! Twentieth century digital boy. Corgan: So I'd like to introduce the band. On keyboards, Jonathon. Iha: Yo yo, ta-dow, come on in the house, fuckin Jonathon Melvoin, come on put it up. Corgan: On drums, Simon LeBon. Can you believe he's in the band? After all that success, to come down to our level. On bass, Nancy Sinatra. Her bass was made for walking. Iha: (unintelligible) Corgan: On guitar, Herschel Walker of the New York Giants. After an illustrious college and pro career, he's come to join the band. And I am Captain Fuckup. Affectionately known as Captain Fuckup. No, screw you, drugs are for losers, I know a lot of them. X.Y.U. Silverfuck / Space Jam tease Corgan: Thanks, goodbye.
