Mayonaise
Lily
BC: [cuts in] Me and my friends here, we wanna play some songs. ‘Cause we love music. Can’t you tell? Heh heh. How’s everybody doing, you alright? I heard today that this city is Willie Nelson’s second favorite city in the world. Heh, are you saying there’s good weed here? I feel comfortable going to bed every night knowing our fans do not do drugs. Because when I meet fans, you know, in jail and at the hospital, they always tell me they don’t do drugs.
Today
> Tarantula
Stand Inside Your Love
> Ava Adore
BC: [cuts in] It’s Wednesday, yeah! I love Wednesday. Heh heh heh! Yeah, yeah, yeah. How’s everybody doing up there upstairs, you okay? Wow, you’re so far away, are you alright, you sure you’re alright? They givin’ you good beer up there, whatever you drink up there? I’m waving to that guy in the back, way back there. Heh heh. Well, that’s the end of the show, thanks for coming. Normally we’re used to sort of a happy atmosphere at our concerts and, uh...everyone seems so quiet and sad, I don’t know. (crowd cheers) Like to play an old song for you now. (crowd cheers) Are you trying to say my old songs are better than my new songs? Fuck-a you. Fuck-a you. My old songs are not better than my new songs, fuck-a you. The fact that you took drugs and got laid to the old albums doesn’t mean they were better, alright? The fact that you stopped paying for your CDs about seven years ago is not my fucking problem, alright? The fact that you’re too busy playing fucking Guitar Hero or whatever the fuck you’re doing to listen to music is not my fucking problem! By the way, we are in Guitar Hero, so thank you very much. Ginger will be in Guitar Hero 4. She will be the demon that will come and devour your soul when you don’t--when you make a mistake. Hot though, hot demon...with wings, (growling) urrr. (normal) Yeah! Listen to my new fuckin’ songs! You wonder why I didn’t come back here for 10 years, listen to my new fuckin’ songs! Thank you very much, okay? I’m not gonna be one of those has-been losers who just puts out fuckin’ shit, okay? I’m not dead, I’m very much alive, I’m lookin’ pretty good. I’m not goin’ fuckin’ anywhere, you’re gonna deal with me ‘til the day you die, you will listen to those songs. Don’t come runnin’ to me when your girlfriend, uh, cheats on you with her--your best friend or some shit and then you want to listen to my records, okay, I [unintelligible word] get it. Heh. Hey, I love you, no matter what you do. I do. I wanna send a lotta love to you right now because at the end of the day, it ain’t about concerts, it ain’t about music, it ain’t even about CDs and all that crap. It is about gettin’ together and havin’ a good time, lovin’ each other a little bit. And just, uh, just to keep it current, this song is actually before you gave a fuck about us, okay? Just remember that.
