Oh, now you like me, now you like me...later, heh. At the beginning you didn’t like me so much. But seriously, who here speaks English? Who here speaks like seven languages? Exactly, heh. Where’s the after party? The after party is in your pants. Hahahaha. Hahahahaha. He said “You wish.” I’ve always wanted a Swiss man. If I know where they got that knife from. That’s the end of the concert, goodbye! Yes, yes. I’m an old man, two and a half hours, that’s it. I’ve got to go home and do cocaine now. Cocaine, some Swiss hot chocolate and some cocaine. And a couple tall blonde Swiss women. With their hair braided like Heidi. Yeah, rock and roll, we love it! Yeah, rock and roll, wooo! It’s the greatest, heh, except when it’s not, heh. But seriously, seriously, we appreciate our fans very much, thank you Smashing Pumpkins fans. You know who you are. We’ve been doing this shit for like 20 years, right? 20 years. Celebrating 20 years of sadness. 20 years, everywhere we go, we get a bunch of shit. Not from our fans...yeah. They wait ‘til the concert to give us shit. But uh, heh heh heh, anyway, thank you, we appreciate you very much, thank you for coming tonight.
