Banter[edit | edit source]

Rocket (abandoned)
(power fails near end of song and there’s a tape cut after about 90 seconds of silence; when picture comes back in, the house lights are on)
BC: Well, shh, hold on. We’re gonna...
Iha: Check.
BC: ...can you hear us out there? We’re gonna have to dispense with the rock pretense like lights and bullshit, so...but I’m sure you don’t give a fuck at this point. Get that fuckin’ shit outta my face. [tape cut] ...any time. [tape cut]
Tristessa
D’arcy: Is the PA on? The PA’s not on, is it?
unknown man: Yes, the PA is on, D’arcy.
Iha: You’ve been a very patient, patient and willing audience. God, we love it.
Bury Me (abandoned just before lyrics)
BC: Yeah, here we go again, pretend that never started.
Bury Me
Iha: Hey, thanks a lot, you guys. That is my boohound, that is my husband. And in this time of need, we have Marco Shea to the stage for his Dino imitation, Marco Shea.
Marco: (short Dino impression)
Iha: Absolutely brilliant.
Marco: I’m a better [unintelligible word], (barks four times).
Iha: It's shows like this that really bring people together but they don't know each other, maybe for some fondling and latent homosexual tendencies and they all can get together as one.
(Window Paine begins)
BC: Sorry. I need space. I need my fuckin’ space, understand? I'm 24 years old, I need my space.
Guy in crowd: Fuck you!
BC: (laughing) Yeah, fuck you too! ... It's a new thing, I go when I wanna go.
Window Paine
(Siva intro begins)
unknown man: Check. (with mic cutting out) Hello? (noises) Can we get a new cable please? Mr. Soundman?
Kill Your Parents
> Siva
Iha: Hey Tommy, Jimmy needs more Calgon. Oklahoma, take me away. Are we going on?
BC: Everything's fucked up, so sorry for all the...whatever it is.
