High School Cadets Intro
United States / Star Spangled Banner
Bullet with Butterfly Wings
BC: Alriiight. We finally made it, thank you very much! We’d like to thank each and every one of you for coming tonight. Thank you, thank you, thank you.
Drown
Bring the Light
> Tonight, Tonight
BC: Thank you!
Tarantula
Disarm
Lucky 13 (w/extended outro)
BC: Thank you very much! How’s everybody doin’, you alright, you alright up there? What about way up there, you alright up there? How ‘bout over there? Alright. I care about your experience. At least I pretend to care about your experience. Heh heh heh heh heh heh. You can stop throwing the mayonnaise packets now, I get the joke. Maybe I should just throw you some condoms so you won’t procreate. Anyway, heh heh, as some of you might know, tonight is the last stop of our American tour. (crowd cheers) Yes, we cheer that too. I have to say, Texas in general been very kind to the Smashing Pumpkins through the years, thank you very much, Texas. As we all know, Texas knows how to fuckin’ rock on every level. Cowboys...win. ‘Course the Rangers still suck but that’s ‘cause A-Rod left, but that’s totally different. That’s a different thing. Anyway, heh heh. As some of you might know, we are touring on an album we put out a little while ago called Zeitgeist. We have totally given up on the idea that you’re actually gonna buy this album. Okay? We’ve given up on that idea, no one buys albums anymore, okay? We get that, we get the message. But we’d like you to listen to the album, if you get a chance, please listen to our album and this is a song from that album, it’s called That’s the Way My Love Is.
That's the Way
> Hummer
BC: Thank you.
1979 (Billy solo acoustic)
BC: Ladies and gentlemen, Mr. Jimmy Chamberlin. Jimmy just told me that this is the greatest gig he’s ever played. You’ve never been better, it’s the best. I know...I know as we get a little older...I know what inspires us. Lots of beautiful women. Not you?, I’m sorry, I won’t include you, just kidding! You looked offended, I didn’t.... Sometimes feminists get a little weird about the “beautiful” thing, you know? All women are beautiful! If it wasn’t for a woman, we wouldn’t be here to cause trouble. If it wasn’t for a woman....
Guy in crowd: You wouldn’t take a risk.
BC: Hahahaha! Yes, anyway...like to play a song from the Adore album. Some people may not know this but we actually put out records after Mellon Collie and the Infinite Sadness. Believe it or not! There was the Adore album. Machina 1, Machina 2. Then there was that other band that we did that didn’t go so well. Then Jimmy did the Jimmy Chamberlin Complex album. And of course I went on tour with Kelly Clarkson. And then now I’m back to the mat.
Perfect (Billy acoustic w/Jimmy tambourine)
Today
Stand Inside Your Love
Superchrist
> Doomsday Clock
Heavy Metal Machine / White Rabbit / White Horse / Iron Man

(BC at beginning: Ladies and gentlemen, that’s the end of the show, we’d like to thank you very much. We’d now gite - la la bluh. Let’s bring it down for a second, Jimmy. We’ve now gotta get in our 67 foot limo...and into our jumbo jet and fly to our private island...where we can do designer drugs and uh, get on the internet. And pray. Anyway, we’d like you to put your hands together for us one last time. There you go, that’s right. Sing along! (singing) I love rock and roll...)
[encore break]
Pomp and Circumstances
BC: Thank you very much, thank you. Before we go, we’d like to say thank you to all our fans, all of you, thank you very much. Have you had a good time up there, you alright? What about over there? Not so good? What about this corner, you’re okay? Heh heh. I think they’re cheering ‘cause of you. It’s this - see? It’s that Latin thing you got going. I’m gonna stop right there, that said. Okay.
Cherub Rock
[bow]
BC: Thank you very much, thank you, thank you. Hope you had a really good time tonight, be safe going home, thank you.
