Today
BC: Thank you very much, thank you!
Starla
BC: Thank you very much. Believe it or not, that song was actually debuted here at the Metro, I think in 1992. Played over there in that corner, I don’t know why we played over there, but we played over there. How’s everybody doing, you having a good time still? I was backstage talking to Peter Gammons, he gave me some inside baseball tips on the Cubs, I just wanted to share them with you. He said it’s lookin’ pretty good for the Cubs, they’re gonna be winning about 2021. So we’ve only got, what, like nine more years to go?
Jeff: [unintelligible].
BC: Heh heh. Anyway, we have a new album coming out on Tuesday. It’s called Mellon Collie and the Infinite Sadness. Actually, it’s called Oceania. This band right here made this album, we’re excited. So we’d like to play a couple songs from Oceania.

Cherub Rock (abandoned after first drumroll - Mike read setlist wrong)
1979
BC: Thank you very much, ladies and gentlemen, thank you so much. Thank you. Thank you, thank you. I’m still here ‘cause of you, thank you. Best city in the world, right? Okay, I have to be a little bit of a commercial here. I’ve started a wrestling company. And we actually have a show tomorrow at Excalibur downtown. Resistance Pro Wrestling, who would like to go? Wow, that’s excellent. There’s a lot of local talent in our promotion and they need your support, so come out, love to see you there and I’ll be there tomorrow if you wanna stop by. Okay Mike, now if you could play the right fuckin’ song this time, Junior. Ladies and gentlemen, Mr. Mike Byrne.
Jeff: This is uh, his first one - his first show, first show.
BC: And ladies, he’s single and he’s a virgin.
