BC: Thank you very much, thank you. Can't believe how cold it is here at this time of the year. Must be global warming. My jokes aren't - my jokes aren’t funny in America so it's okay, you don't have to laugh.
The Celestials (acoustic)
BC: Thank you so much, thank you! Now people of Tokyo, I’ve been coming here for 21 years to your beautiful city. Can you hear me up there? Up there...those people up there! No, they can't hear me. They're listening to, uh, X Japan. Okay, I'm talking to you. How many old school Smashing Pumpkins fans do we have in here today? Alriight. Thank you. Thank you so much. Over here we got Jeff on the guitar. Mike Byrne on the drums. And from Tokyo, Nicole Fiorentino!
Nicole: Not really but...hello.
BC: You're Japanese, right?
Nicole: I could be. We don’t know, I’m not sure.
BC: So anyway, it's a long, crazy road, rock and roll. Crazy road! Just like the Scorpions say, you know, crazy road!
Jeff: Crazy road.
BC: Crazy road.
Jeff: Yeah right!
BC: And I’ve been coming here with Smashing Pumpkins for 21 years. There's been good times, there's been great times and there's been bad times. I don't know what this is...so-so time? No? Is it good time? Alright. Well, I'm 46 now. Old man! Old man. And I don't know how many times I can come back to Japan so I want to say to all my fans, for 21 years of love and support, thank you so much. ... So if I see you again, great. If I don't see you again, thank you. Maybe this is the last time. Yes? Yeah? The people on the top, they're not listening. You need the people on the top to listen or you can't come to Japan. So we dedicate this last song to you, no wait, well, we have a few more. You wanna play more, Jeff? Alright, Jeff says thumbs up! Okay, we dedicate this song to you. The ones afterwards we do not dedicate to you. But this song we dedicate to you. And may this put a little love in your heart.
