Jeff: No way, no way.<br>
BC: Not even close, he’s like a rock god.<br>
Jeff: He’s not me, no, it’s not me.<br>
BC: He’s got the abs and everything.  Unlike you English, uh, beer drinker types.  You don’t have the abs, you know it.  Hey, I don’t have the abs!  Heh.  Anyway, heh heh.  Is everybody alright?  ''(Robert Plant impression)''  I said is everybody alright?  ''(normal voice)''  Gonna play some Zeppelin now.  Heh heh heh.  Come on, Jimmy, Jimmy Page.<br>
'''Dazed and Confused''' (tease)<br>
BC: Like to play a song, um, like to play a song, uh, that came out when many of you were embryos.  Drunken mistakes.  Unloved spawn.  1991, this is a song called Drown.<br>

Jeff: Do you remember it?
BC: I said that I would return to Belgium with the Smashing Pumpkins and I have returned with the Smashing Pumpkins.  What’s the big deal?  It’s not our fault that you eat 23 pounds of chocolate per person a year.  It’s not a - it’s not our problem that you think you’re better than the rest of Europe.  It’s not our problem that the EU is based out of Belgium, it’s not our problem.  Am I right about that?  What does this all mean?  I don’t know!  I don’t know.
Jeff ''(off mic)'': Heh heh, [unintelligible but sounds like “caught in the rain.”]
BC: Heh haha.  What does this have to do with rock and roll? - it has ''everything'' to do with rock and roll!  Okay, heh heh heh.  Once again, I’ll get a bad review for freaking out.  “He freaked out again in Belgium, he freaked out.  He just went crazy.  He went insane.  He threw his guitar, he punched Jeff...he humiliated Ginger.”  Well, that’s a good thing.  They like that.
Ginger ''(off mic)'': I know, I do too.
BC: It’s a misogynist type of thing here.  Anyway, this is an old song.  Like to send this out to all our old fans.  Yeah.  Yeah.  Thank you very much, god bless everybody here.  Thank you.
