BC: [cuts in] It’s very nice to be in your beautiful country for the first time. It only took us 20 fuckin’ years to get here, but uh, heh heh. I was too busy losing my mind somewhere else. Hey, all you people in the back, you okay, way back there, you alright? Yeah. I see you, I’m not too old, I can see you. I’d like to dedicate this song to everybody, everybody, everybody.
