Glass and the Ghost Children / Le Deux Machina (acoustic)
(BC spoken word before outro: And in every single corner, she saw avarice and greed. And what once had been ambiguous, yeah. She only spoke one language but she did whatever she can, that’s right. She was all things to all people. She held his hand gladly ‘til the day she didn’t. With every knife, she drew across their hearts. She was his girl, yeah. (singing) As she counted the spiders, as they crawled up inside her. As she counted the spiders, as they crawled up inside her. As she counted the spiders, as they crawled up inside her. As she counted the spiders, as they crawled up inside her. (speaking) She counted the spiders!)
Today (acoustic)
BC: Good evening, good evening, thank you very much. We’d now like to play a song for you from Machina 1, not Machina 2. This is called Stand Inside Your Love.

(Billy and Iha jamming for a second)
BC: The Doobie Brothers. Thanks a lot.
Iha: Thank you very much. Like to make a quick introduction of the band at present. On the piano, all the way from L.A., California, Mr. Mike Garson! L.A. is certainly his lady. On the keyboards, synthesizer and...vocoder, Mr. Chrissssss Holmes.
Holmes: Ah yes, thank you very much.
Iha: From Canadan - from Canada, of Swiss born blood, Melissa Auf der Maur. My god, she’s Swiss. You wouldn’t know it but she’s Swiss. She’s from Canada. Loving it. All the way from Joliet, a bruiser, a cruiser, the madman on the drums, Mr. Jimmy Chamberlin! Ah yeah. All the way from Glendale Heights, on lead vocals, searing guitar and...atonal rhythms, Mr. Billy Corgan! And I am from....
BC: Are you from Switzerland?
Iha: (laughing) Yes, I am of uh, Swiss born blood as well. I am typical Swiss boy. I salute you.
BC: Before we play our last song, we like to say thank you very much to the Smashing Pumpkins fans. Thank you.
Iha: (screams)
BC: Auf wiedersehen.
