(BC: Good evening, ladies and gentlemen, good evening, good evening, good evening to all of you. Good evening. Can we have a little light in this motherfucker, Tommy? I wanna see everybody. Let’s get some light. Put the house lights on. Do something, I wanna see everybody. I wanna see everybody. Yes, put the house lights on, yes, please, I want to see everybody, hello. I want to see you. Thank you very much for coming to the last night of our Resume the Pose tour. We’re very happy to be here with you tonight, there you go. We are the Smashing Pumpkins. Eternally breaking apart. Yes, falling apart. So one more time, one more time, one more time, we reach way back, way back...way back, way back, 1991. Yes, shhhh. A simple time of revolutionary thoughts and happy hearts, all before it went all wrong. Yes, shhhh. We reach way back, shhhh. One more time we deliver this message to you. It’s a revolution, it’s a revolution of thought, there are no soldiers, there are no bullets, there are no guns. Yes. ... There you go. There are those rare moments where, yes, even I don’t know what to say and I’m very humbled by your love and support for our band. So tonight, I’ll skip the spiel, I’ll cut all the bullshit talk and just say we love you and we thank you. We are the machines...)<br> | |||

BC: Ladies and gentlemen, I’d now like to introduce the band to you. Yes, the band. Yes, he’s a cat, he’s a gnome, he plays the guitar, his name is Mr. James Iha.<br> | |||
Iha: Hello? Hello, hello, Bruce, Bruce, Bruce, I have - I have, hello, Bruce, may I have the house there? Um, stop, uh, too many people are getting crushed up here in the front so if you could just not push as much. Thanks. That was my service announcement.<br> | |||
BC: To my left, Miss Melissa Auf der Maur. On the uh, on the primal thumbs, Mr. Jimmy Chamberlin.<br> | |||
'''Cherub Rock'''<br> | |||
(BC right after opening drum fills: And my name is Fred.)<br> | |||
BC: Thank you all, thank you all, thank you all. So it uh, so it being the last night, um, we ask you to indulge us to let us play you one more song from our new album. Oh yeah, by the way, um, if you didn’t see the Juno Awards, the results are in so I know them. So in case you were curious, best album, best vocal by a lip syncing band, best looking band: Backstreet Boys. Best Canadian group: the Backstreet Boys. Best instrumental: the Backstreet Boys. There was best fake boobs category but I can’t remember who won. So uh, this is a new song, it’s called I of the Mourning, thank you.<br> | |||
'''I of the Mourning'''<br> | |||
[encore break]<br> | |||
BC: Thank you. I’d like to try something I don’t - well, let me start again. I’m about to play a song for you that I’ve played before in my life. I’ve been wanting to play this song for a really long time.<br> | |||
Guy in crowd: We love you, Billy!<br> | |||
BC: Thank you, I love you too. It’s um, I think that uh, that uh, this amazing night and um, this city, um, is - is uh, this is the perfect song, I guess that’s what I’m trying to say. So I guess that’s a long prelude for saying that I’ve never played this song before so if I mess up, it’s not my fault. Okay, so, I hope you’re with me. If you know this song, sing along.<br> | |||
'''Limelight''' (Billy solo acoustic)<br> | |||
BC: I’d like to say uh, I’d like to say uh, I wanted to say this before I played this song. We uh, our band is so indebted to Rush, it’s such an amazing band. And I love that song very much and thank you to them for what they’ve given to us so thank you.<br> | |||
'''1979''' (acoustic, Jimmy plays guitar)<br> | |||
BC: Thank you. Thank you very much. I hope we’re not playing too long, we have a tendency to do that. It’s not every day we get to play in front of you so we’re just trying to get the most out of.... Plus we figure, you know, with Melissa being Canadian, you’ll let us get away with whatever we want. Is everybody alright, is it too hot, is it too cold, is it too [unintelligible word]?<br> | |||
Iha: It’s just right.<br> | |||
'''Join Together''' (acoustic)<br> | |||
Iha: Thanks, thanks.<br> | |||
[encore break]<br> | |||
Iha: Woo!<br> | |||
'''The Everlasting Gaze'''<br> | |||
BC: Thank you very much, uh, if we could have the house lights on please, Whitey. No, house lights, like real lights. We’d like to take a moment to um, to um, well, I’d like to thank my three bandmates very much. Thank you, Melissa. Thank you, James. Thank you, uh, Jimmy. Uh, thank you very much, my friends in the band. Um, I’d like to thank our esteemed road crew for making this all possible. Thank you. Thank you everybody for making our lives easy. Haha, well, kinda easy. Um, there’s one person we’d like to really...well....<br> | |||
Iha: Dedicate.<br> | |||
BC: We’d like to dedicate this next song to this person. Where is he? I can’t find him.<br> | |||
Iha: For that psychedelic....<br> | |||
BC: Where is the light - where is the lighting guy? Where’s the lighting guy?<br> | |||
Iha: Ah, he’s over that way.<br> | |||
BC: Oh, he’s over there, see him up there? Wave, Tommy. Uh, this is good ch - that’s Tommy. Um, this is a good time to say thank you and you’re fired. This is your last gig with us, Tommy. I joke.<br> | |||
Melissa: I was just thinking about the fact that I’m representing our fine country and a very fine rock band. And I am so proud of our Canadian rock ability, thank you. And basically the rest of this goes to Canada and by Tommy.<br> | |||
BC: Also, one further announcement, besides saying thank you and goodnight is um, this is a - we’ve played this song every once in a while and um, this is pretty much the last time we’re going to play it so if it’s really bad and then, it’s the same sort of concept. I know that doesn’t help but it puts at least in our minds some sort of context to allow us to play this song because if we didn’t believe it was the last time, then we couldn’t even play this song. Do you agree with that, James?<br> | |||
'''Gloria''' (parody version “Canada”)<br> | |||
(Iha: I spell C. A. N. A. D. A, A, A, A. Stand up! Canada. Everybody! Canada. Get into Canada. ‘Cause the Canaca-ca-ca-ca-ca, grato! I met you a long time ago, woman. You’ve been so B team, Toronto.

(BC second half of song: Humpty Dumpty fell off the wall. And alllllll the kings horses couldn’t pay his bills. Little Red Riding Hood went walking through the dense Canadian forest and she came upooooon a golden key. And that key unlocked a door which held a room which held another key that unlocked another door that held another room with another key and unlocked another door with another door and unlocked another door with another key and on and on and on. ‘Cause you can get lost in the dense Canadian forest. ''(Billy solos briefly)'' There’s nowhere to go. There’s nowhere to hide. There’s nowhere to go. There’s nowhere to hide.

BC: Have - have we made everyone really tired and sleepy? No no no no no, really, that’s not a - that’s not one of those concert questions to elicit a tremendous response. We know that you’ve - we’ve worn you out so we’ll just kind of lull you to sleep now. Shhhh. Shhhh. No no, there’ll be no more loud music, it’s all very pleasant now, shhhh. We’re just gonna group meditate and wish for good things, here we go. Shhhh. Here we go, we’re all thinking positive thoughts, like uh, positive thoughts like soon the rock will stop to suck. Soon rock music will stop sucking. Positive thoughts, positive thoughts! Soon there will be no more boy bands. We’re all thinking positive thoughts, positive thoughts. Soon the rock will return to the people. I know that James is building some sort of environmental slash rock campaign, something to do with trees and rock music, I don’t know. Would you like to explain it?<br> | |||
Iha: Me oh my, me oh my. Me oh my, me oh my. Wiggle wiggle, wiggle wiggle! Hello! Devil? Is that you, devil? What you sellin’, devil? A lake of fire? Seven deadly sins? An everlasting gas fire barbeque grill? I don’t want any of that, devil. I’m gonna have to say goodbye to you, devil. I hung up on the devil, ladies and gentlemen. Have you had that problem yourself? The devil callin’ you and you don’t have caller ID? Ohhh, the devil works in so many ways and we’re gonna be purified tonight! Can I see some hands in the air? Of the faithful? Are some of you using the devil’s phone service? Are there any of you that would like to switch? There are some of you who would like to switch...away from the devil’s phone service and to get onto god’s Canadian Bell. You’ve heard the devil’s music tonight so you wanna be purified in one last jam, right? Rock music, rock music has a history. Do you know that heathen song These Boots Are Made For Walkin’? These Boots Are Made For Walkin’. I’m gonna write walk all over you. Well, I got the devil in my shoebox. That’s where I been keepin’ him so he don’t walk on us. Ow! So I want the energy of all of you right now for this one last jam, come on Toronto, show me your hands!<br> | |||

And that key unlocked a door which held a room which held another key that unlocked another door that held another room with another key and unlocked another door with another door and unlocked another door with another key and on and on and on. ‘Cause you can get lost in the dense Canadian forest. (Billy solos briefly) There’s nowhere to go. There’s nowhere to hide. There’s nowhere to go. There’s nowhere to hide. I might like you better, I might like you better, I might like you better if we slept together. But there’s something, yeah, something in your eyes that says maybe, maybe, that’s never say never. Ow! Oh, do you wanna, oh do you wanna, shhhhh. Oh do you wanna, oh do you wanna, oh do you wanna play house? Oh do you wanna, oh do you wanna, oh do you wanna play house? I’m a Hollywood baby, come out by your window and let me (howled) howl. (normal) I’m a howlin’ wolf, baby, come outside your window, let me (howled) howl. (howls) (normal) I’m a king bee, I’m a king bee, I’m a guitar hero, I’m a whoop wooooooo! (howls) (howls) (scream howls) (normal) I’m a king bee wolf, a big bear. (Billy solos) Alright, alright, alright, alright, alright. Let the blues die. Let the blues die. Then you never listen to the surf music again. Let the blues die. (band stops) (howls) (scream howls) (howls) (normal) Whoo. Look out! (howls))
Iha: Thanks, uh...thanks a lot, everybody. Oh, Tonto, you’re rockin’. Thank you.
BC: Have - have we made everyone really tired and sleepy? No no no no no, really, that’s not a - that’s not one of those concert questions to elicit a tremendous response. We know that you’ve - we’ve worn you out so we’ll just kind of lull you to sleep now. Shhhh. Shhhh. No no, there’ll be no more loud music, it’s all very pleasant now, shhhh. We’re just gonna group meditate and wish for good things, here we go. Shhhh. Here we go, we’re all thinking positive thoughts, like uh, positive thoughts like soon the rock will stop to suck. Soon rock music will stop sucking. Positive thoughts, positive thoughts! Soon there will be no more boy bands. We’re all thinking positive thoughts, positive thoughts. Soon the rock will return to the people. I know that James is building some sort of environmental slash rock campaign, something to do with trees and rock music, I don’t know. Would you like to explain it?
Iha: Me oh my, me oh my. Me oh my, me oh my. Wiggle wiggle, wiggle wiggle! Hello! Devil? Is that you, devil? What you sellin’, devil? A lake of fire? Seven deadly sins? An everlasting gas fire barbeque grill? I don’t want any of that, devil. I’m gonna have to say goodbye to you, devil. I hung up on the devil, ladies and gentlemen. Have you had that problem yourself? The devil callin’ you and you don’t have caller ID? Ohhh, the devil works in so many ways and we’re gonna be purified tonight! Can I see some hands in the air? Of the faithful? Are some of you using the devil’s phone service? Are there any of you that would like to switch? There are some of you who would like to switch...away from the devil’s phone service and to get onto god’s Canadian Bell. You’ve heard the devil’s music tonight so you wanna be purified in one last jam, right? Rock music, rock music has a history. Do you know that heathen song These Boots Are Made For Walkin’? These Boots Are Made For Walkin’. I’m gonna write walk all over you. Well, I got the devil in my shoebox. That’s where I been keepin’ him so he don’t walk on us. Ow! So I want the energy of all of you right now for this one last jam, come on Toronto, show me your hands!
