Cherub Rock
> United States
BC: I hate when people take pictures like we’re fuckin’ props, sorry, (laughing) I just had to get in your picture. Heh heh heh. No, I wasn’t that towards you, it’s just these guys taking a picture and, uh, I’m just the Eiffel Tower so I just wanted to be the fuck you Eiffel Tower. Heh heh, just kidding, sorry, love you too. The adrenaline was coursing through my body and I just didn’t....

BC: Thank you very much, thank you. Thank you.
Guy in crowd: Billy, tell us a joke!
BC: You wanna hear a joke? ... No. You didn’t pay for no jokes! You pay, you paid for, uh, alternative rock and roll played with attitude. You paid for my unpredictability. You paid for this cold I’ve got. Hahaha, somebody just asked for my tissue. You’re one of those dudes who like cloning, make a baby in your belly, I don’t know. I know what you’re doing...with your dirty money. (coughs) Sorry, I’m just a little sick, I’m just trying to catch my breath so...just ignore me for a second. I can introduce the band, that’s always a good time killer, haha. [unintelligible], right? Right? Introduce the band, kill some time. Maybe, maybe, um, when I introduce this side, like, you can rise in unison over here. Over here, Jeff Schroeder! Over there, Gingger Shankar! Lisa! Ste-heehee-Stephen. Question mark? Gabrial. Mr. Pooley. Mrs. Pooley. Jimmy Chamberlin. I’m your thunderwolf to their Phoebe (?). Alright, well, that’s the end of the show, thanks for coming. Hey, it’s been a good show so far, right? That’s why this should be the end of the show right here, heh heh heh. Think about that, think about that later when you’re condemning me. Heh heh heh. You’re blogging. Hahaha. Alright, like to play a song you don’t know. Even though it’s widely available. Um, it’s called The Rose March.

(BC at beginning: Ladies and gentlemen, we’ve come to the end of the show. But before we go, we’d like to sing a cautionary tale. Because it’s a big, bad world. Before we leave, we want you to take this in your heart. So should you meet this on the path of life, you’ll know what to do. It’s true.)
(BC over big rock ending: Thank you very much, thanks for coming out, we are the Smashing Pumpkins. Gettin’ our blues on for you.)
BC: Thank you!
[encore break]
That’s the Way (acoustic)
BC: Thank you very much, thank you. Well, we hope you’ve enjoyed the show. Thank you. We hope you’ve enjoyed the show. Heh heh heh. Yes. That’s about it, heh heh heh. That’s the end of the show. What’s going on out there? Heh heh heh. Oh, digital effects.
