BC: We just want you to know that we love coming to Barcelona, it's a wonderful city. We appreciate your support very much, um, we were talking to some people and we first played in Barcelona in 1991 and I think we played to 140 people, so um, thank you so much for coming.

Iha: Hey, what’s up, dude?
BC: Romário!
Iha: Uh, he wants--he wants my tie. Tell him I only have one tie.
BC: Wait, that's Maradona. Oh, sorry, Robert Benjamin. Heh, ya, heh heh. Okay, this is one of our favorite songs and uh, we hope you like it because if you don't, it’s too bad.
Muzzle

Iha: [cuts in] [unintelligible], this fine tune here. Is everybody ready to dance? Okay. Well, I'm gonna dance. So this next song, everybody do something remotely close to dancing. Jump up and down, twirl, tap dance, whatever you--whatever you feel like.

Mayonaise
BC: God bless you, thank you.
[encore break]
Iha: Oh yeah! Oh yeah! Throw up a hand for the third fuckin’ encore. Chi-town style, I feel the Windy City. A little backstage rednecks right there. Whoosh. On this next song, we would--we would ask you to open your mind. (Jimmy starts Silverfuck) Slit your brain in half and find that creative...open artistic part.
