Banter

Stumbleine
Corgan: Thank you. This next song is a song I originally writ, writ?, writ?.. about a cat. So, make no mistake, it's not an obsessive love song about a cat, but it started out that way. It's called Lily
Lily
Corgan: And just a subtle reminder to those of you that are talking, I can hear every word you're saying. It charms my heart to know that you stood in line to talk. That's why I grew up to do this.
Various teases with crowd singalongs
Towers of Rabble
Corgan: You people know you're being taped tonight? These are for our own, we make these films then we masturbate to them at home. It's the only way I can cum anymore. Sorry, you're all over 21, at least you're pretending to be. This next song is actually kind of an old Siamese Dream era-ish song that's been resurrected for consumption. And it goes like this, one, two, three, four.
Meladori Magpie
Corgan: I give you, James Iha
Iha: Any minute we'll be rocking but you'll have to endure one more Prozac-like ballad. So, just hold your horses. It's a slow quiet one so...
Take Me Down
Iha: And now, we will rock.
Corgan: I'm sorry about the music today, there's not much I can do about it....Alright, now we're going to play some songs that there's no fucking way you can talk over
Iha: You people disgust me!
Corgan: You're a bunch of talkers. What Billy doesn't understand is, I'm so caught up in the vibe that I just, I lost it.
Iha: Hey man I went to Asylum today, there was this really great sale sign and they got this clock radio and[unintelligible]
Corgan: James, remember, this is new positive style of pumpkins we're going for. The audience is not the enemy, the enemy is us
Iha: we are floating down a river like lilipads
Corgan: Why's there no damn backlight, that's what I want to know. Can't play without backlight.
Tonight, Tonight
Corgan: Sorry my voice is shot, I sound like a robot. This is g, o, d
God
Corgan: Thanks a lot
Zero
Here Is No Why
Corgan: Thanks. It's too punky. Are you ready, James?
Cupid de Locke
Fuck You
Love
Corgan: Thank you so very much. Like a broken record, I'd like to remind you that these shows are for charity. And the reason I bring this up is because I'd like everyone to donate what they can. It's not a matter of how much, it's just a matter of how, so I encourage you to take some responsibility for your community and for people who need your help. That's all I'll say in the preaching area
Porcelina of the Vast Oceans
Corgan: It's the only one I got... it's not the kind I play. The dreaded camera
Iha: [unintelligible] the cameraman down in the front row
Corgan: I think you've got enough footage of us looking like shit.
Speed
Corgan: How's about you giving that[unintelligible]... thank you, we appreciate that. I'd like to do another immensely sad one for you. Let me tell you something, sadness has gotten us really far, ok. Joy never did me a damn bit of good.
Galapogos
Corgan: Thank you for being so patient. We realize there's a lot of songs you've never heard before. We're very happy to move on in our lives.
[James plays Today tease]
Corgan: Anyway, that's yesterday, isn't it?
Bullet with Butterfly Wings
Corgan: Thank you
Iha, in exaggerated high pitch voice, teases Fly by Night [Rush]
Jellybelly
Intermission 1...
By Starlight
Iha: Now that you people are so excited, we will play a song from our latest album Vitalogy.
Corgan: This one's called I ripped off that I Am One groove.
The fire alarm...
Iha: Whoever said moshpit please go to college or take a bill of education or something
Corgan: No, no, no, this is the new positive Pumpkins, take that back
Iha (fey-voiced): Let's rock and roll guys.
Frail and Bedazzled
Corgan: So tomorrow begins the official first day of our new album recording, so this will be the last rock show for about seven or eight months. Wish us luck, thank you for coming. Maybe this is the last appearance ever
Iha: Oh my god!
Corgan: Maybe this is the last song we'll ever play, I don't know
Iha: That's right!
Corgan: But tomorrow is a new day and a new dawn is rising
Iha: I see it through the colored windows of my mind
Corgan: Right over there, right by the MTV camera guy, a new future
Iha: Any second we'll be kicking off one of those rock jams that are so much fun in these sweaty... I see you have a Frogs shirt, do you like the Frogs? They're good friends of ours and we snort cocaine with them.
Never Let Me Down [Depeche Mode]
Corgan: I'm sorry I messed up this song.
Intermission 2...
Corgan: We don't care if you want another encore or not, we're just gonna play all night. I can't wait to play Siamese Dream, all the way through. Yeah!
Iha: Then we're doing Aerosmith Rocks [unintelligible] Here we go. Hey man [unintelligible] As premiered we kick out a country, another country jam.
Blew Away
Corgan: So who was the last person to get a ticket. Ok that's a lot of people
Wretzky: There can be only one
Corgan: Who is that one?
Iha: The man with the BLT sandwich, there it is
Corgan: I don't know ticket 215... who has the last ticket, we have special prizes for you
Iha: If you come on up, we'll show you
Corgan: Do you truly have the last ticket, are you serious?
Iha: And if you can rap, that would be a bonus
Corgan: I would assume the last number would be, 500? Friends and families of the Pumpkins are not included. Is this the man or is he a liar? You're the man?
Iha: can you rap?
Corgan: Ticket 500, special winner!
Iha: Alright, let's play the special winner song.
Corgan: We'll give you back the ticket in a second
Wretzky: You don't really win anything, but you're just special
Iha: Let me see your fuckin' hands in the air. Come on, let's see your hands, kickin out that dope beat. C'mon let me see your hands, let's see them like you just don't care, let get in the fuckin' air. Jump you motherfucker, I don't care how white you are, jump, yeah I'm feeling it right now. My name's is James, I'm playing your game. Ow your fire is hot, can I put it in your pot? I don't think so! D'arcy Wretzky on the motherfucking bass, what a groove she's kickin'. A smoother groove would be one by Jimmy Chamberlin, the Joliet mustard, the Joliet mustard Jimmy Chamberlin! On the lead vocal kicking that dope ass rock, Billy Corgan, c'mon! I know you got it in you, yea, come on, oh yeh fuck yeh. C'mon, c'mon you people right now, do something. You fuckin' lazy ass shit, get in the fuckin' air. Come on! Alright we're doing it smooth at the Double Door owned by Joe Shanahan. We'd like to thank everyone for coming out tonight on the awards: Mark Williams, a man called Flood, a man called Kevin Dancer, Andy Gorschov, Michael Listig. C'mon let's hear it for them...
Corgan: If you, hold on to your ticket, and if you wait after the show and give us your name, we'll send you some cool stuff. Hey think about this person right here, if he gotten up 5 seconds later, he wouldn't be here. You should ask this man for lotto numbers. And you have a job? Well if you're listening to us you probably wouldn't be working [unintelligible] Just kidding. What now? Would you like to say that to my face sir? Hey tough guy.
Iha: I think not
Corgan: Hey would you like to say that to my face? It's funny how anonimity breeds courage. Hey you're the same guy whose been at every Lollapalooza show heckling us. We send you a collective fuck off.
Muzzle
Pissant...during rant, Corgan: I just want to say one thing to you, you young college lughead types. I've been watching people like you stomp around on other people for seven years. And you know what? it's the same shit and I wish you'd understand that in an environment like this and a setting like this, it's fairly inappropriate and unfair to the people around you. I and we take a stand against moshing. It's time has come and gone, it has ceased to be a spontaneous act. And when it's in Miller Lite beer commercials on a selling point, you know its time has gone. And when you see it in the new Offspring video, you know it's time has gone. But when you see it in our new video, you know it's time has returned. Old school, James, old school. Hey yeah, throw that guy off, that was the guy who was mean to me. A little thing called karma. Don't hurt him, he's stupid, he can't help it.
I Just Wanna Make Love to You [Dixon]
Corgan: Thank you, good night, au revoir, see you next time. It's why God gave me buck-teeth.
