Tonight, Tonight
Corgan: Hello out there. Thanks for coming to the concert, we appreciate it very much. You know, I was thinking about this the other day, and I'm not sure...I was on Philadelphia on the fourth of July and I was walking down the street, and this girl came up to me and she said, "you know that Tonight song?" And I said yeah...and she said "don't you think you're kind of ripping yourself off, I mean you had that song Today, and now you have that song Tonight."
Iha: Wow, that's heavy.
Corgan: And I said "well, it's kind of a joke, if you don't get it, you don't get it, it's alright." And she said "no, but you're ripping yourself off." And I said "it's a joke". She said "well, I don't think it's funny." I said "I don't care if you think it's funny or not."
Iha: The name of our next single will be morning.
Corgan: With a U.
Wretzky: Did you tell 'em about Tonight Junior?

Iha: Thank you. How is everybody? OK? We're not boring you are you?
