Notes

Banter

MC: This is Metro, I'm Frankie Lee from XRT and I just want to say before we go any further tonight's show is being taped for a future Sunday night concert broadcast... so be enthusiastic. We do have, we have a brief commercial announcement here... alright...
You know you really can't call 'em a local band anymore because their major label debut, Siamese Dream, has made them a global phenomenon
Iha: We're as big as Survivor
Corgan: Yeah, Survivor
MC: One of the best albums of the year. So let's welcome them, let's warmly welcome Smashing Pumpkins!
Rocket
Corgan: Are you ready?
[cheers]
Corgan: Yeah but are you ready to rock?
Iha: We salute you
Quiet
Today

Corgan: Hi. Erm.. I'm not your whore now, I'm not gonna do your bidding... The old me? This is the new me, the old me, see, the old new me
Rhinoceros
Geek U.S.A.

Iha: Thank you so very much
Soma
I Am One

Corgan: This is Eric. Everybody say hi to Eric
Wretzky: Eric is the rock 'n' roll cellist
Corgan: He's got better hair than we do that tells you a lot. Eric played with us on the new album so we thought we'd have him come play tonight. It's not easy carrying around a cello, let me tell you. Let me tell you though, he gets a lot of girls with this thing. Alright, I'm sorry... you don't get a lot of girls. This is called 'Disarm'
Disarm
Corgan: Eric Remschneider.
So seeing as this is an intimate gathering... yeah I know. This is a song about my little brother who's up there tonight, say hi... His name is Jesse so 'hi Jesse', hey! [laughs] So this is called 'Spaceboy'
Spaceboy
Corgan: Thank you. So we'd like to do one more song with Eric cos we don't want to make him go and come back
[audience requests]
Corgan: No, sorry we can't play that, but you probably don't know this song, but sorry...
[more requests]
Corgan: No, no, just let us play whatever we want to play
classical tease
Corgan: I know we've sold out, don't worry about it
Starla
Corgan: Eric!
Er, You're not bored are you? If you're bored we'll stop. Are you bored?
Iha: Oh no, c'mon kids let's rock
Cherub Rock
Bury Me
Hummer

Corgan: Thanks. I would just like, wait, one second, that song we just played is called 'Hummer' and see that's a song about my life, right. Just wait.. so like you write a song about your life, you write the way you feel and then you put out a record and some asshole from the Sun Times writes that your lyrics are sophomoric and the song is stupid. So seeing as I'm not gonna be in Chicago for six weeks I'd just like to say fuck the Sun Times! And I'd like to dedicate the song to assholes across America, without you we wouldn't have anything to complain about
Audience member: Irony!
Corgan: Yeah, irony. I learned it in high school. Yeah, irony, it's where I say something I kinda mean, you understand.. you went to high school too I guess.
So we'd like to kick your ass one more time with an oldie but a goodie
Siva

Corgan (mid song): Hey man, leave her alone... just leave her alone, let her play y'know. Don't you have some headless female to grogg over y'know, you don't have to come here to do it...
Alright, wait, sssh, sssh, we're gonna achieve something rare at a concert, silence.. sssh, sssh...
Audience member: Jimmy rules!
Corgan: Yeah I know he does but shh. just play the game, please, just shut up..
[band comes back in]

[encore break]
Corgan: Hi. Huh? I can't... I'm deaf. So we'd like to do a song from Sia-mese Dream and it's called 'Mayonaise'
Mayonaise
[encore break 2]
Iha: We thank you all for coming tonight and sweating with us. We dedicate this next song 'Sweat' to you
Corgan: So that's James, that's D'arcy, that's Jimmy and I'm Fred. I'm Billy's evil twin. Billy would've liked to been here tonight but he was too busy being sad
Iha: Too busy being sad and listening to 'Seventeen Seconds'
Corgan: So what do you wanna hear?
Iha: I wanna hear that song, I wanna hear that song from that really fuckin' cool soundtrack that starred Matt Fonda
Corgan: For the last time, we do not know that song whatever it is the one that you're yelling
[audience yells requests]
No, we don't know 'Jag Off', 'Jerk', no don't know that
Iha: We do know 'Faggot' though
Corgan: Wanna play Layla?
[plays wild guitar noise]
Corgan: That was Layla
Drown
Corgan: Thank you, thank you. Alright we're only gonna play one more song... no, no, one...one, one! Don't give me that's a bummer. After this song you don't wanna hear no more
Iha: We'll be so bombastic you'll never wanna hear music again
Corgan: Yeah, you won't even wanna hear records anymore after this song so dont complain. Your life will be better without records, trust me
Iha: Play two more songs
Corgan: In fact you know donate all that money to the poor or something, don't buy records. It's only bad for the brain and the heart and the soul and the butt
Iha: Just give it to Streetwise
Corgan: So this is the last great song on Planet Earth from the last great band on Planet Earth
Iha: Electric Light Orchestra!
Corgan: No, cos I'm telling you, the aliens... By 1999 the aliens will be here and that'll be the end of our civilisation. So you might as well get used to it now, find your last stuff that you like. Cos after that we're all gonna be moulded with the aliens and then we won't have humans anymore
Iha: I've been abducted once, I've been abducted
Corgan: Can you tell he's been abducted?
Iha: Once
Corgan: Show them the triangle.. see, he has the triangle. Anyway enough bullshit...
OK let's everyone scream all at once and we'll just get it off our chest, ready?
[screams]
Corgan: Yeah, you feel better?
Silverfuck
Over the Rainbow (tease)
Jackboot (tease)
Bye June
