Banter

Wretzky: Hi.
Iha: Hello.
Tonight, Tonight
Corgan: I thought the people last night were crazy. You guys are outta your fuckin' minds! You're outta your fuckin' minds!
In the Arms of Sleep
Corgan: Thank you very much.
Iha: Let's rock and roll.
Cupid de Locke
Corgan: Thank you so much.
Norweigan Wood [The Beatles] (tease)
Thirty-three
Corgan: Thank you. We put out our first album in 1976, and that was when we opened with Nazareth. That was a really big break for us.
Iha: Those were the heydays.
Corgan: And it was a song that seemed to catapult us onto the national scene, we'd like to play that song for you now, it's a song very close to our hearts, and, uh, we used to do a duet with Ted Nugent on this one.
Iha: That's right. I don't know if any of you know that. That was the Bob Seger tour.
Corgan: That was a good tour.
Iha: The silver bullet. It's called Today!
Today
Iha: Hey, kids wanna rock.
Corgan: Uno, dos, tres, cuatro...
Soma
Corgan: Hey, um, all your friends up here are getting smushed, so let's please not push and kill each other. You ruffian male types in the middle, I see you pushing. It's a long show, you know, you're all in, let's just relax, have a good time. The people who should be pushing are the people who are still outside.
Take Me Down
Iha: Thank you.
Beautiful
Corgan: Thanks a lot. For Pumpkins, please open before show's end. Okay.
Iha: What does it say...pray tell ye.
Corgan: Thank you. You're Smashing Pumpkins, I want to thank you for all the great music. I have just one request: Crush and Rhinoceros. Gee, we can't play those anymore, but thanks anyway. Well, these songs were my old boyfriend's and my songs. The night we met, one of our first conversations were about you. Bear with me. Aww, this is sad. Paul died of cancer, aww! That's so sad!
Iha: Well, I don't think you should read anymore.
Corgan: Alright, even though we haven't played it in a long time, we'll play Rhinoceros for you.
Rhinoceros
Corgan: That's for you, [???]. God bless you.
Rocket

Corgan: Thanks a lot. We are the Smashing Pumpkins. There is one of my picks, there you go. Now you can stop yelling at me every five seconds.
1979
Corgan: We'd like to take a moment to say thanks for being patient. We realize we're playing, like, a lot of songs. We hope you're having a good time. We are. What do you say here, normally? What's your normal line? We already played Soma, by the way. What's your normal line?
Iha: Oh, uh, and now we will rock you.
Geek U.S.A.
Cherub Rock
Wretzky: Thank you.

Encore One:
Corgan: We're very deaf, and we appreciate your...
Iha: Now, this is a quiet song.
Corgan: Know how they used to call Detroit 'rock city'?
Iha: Diego...
Corgan: Diego Rock City! What does Diego mean?
Iha: Uhm, it's a type of omelette.
Corgan: It's an omelette?
Iha: A very...chives and onions, and uh...I don't know, I've had it once before, they told me it was Diego, and, uh, I thought it was fantastic. I thought it was a fantastic omelette, and then I realized it's Diego. And then...
Lily (My One and Only)
Iha: Alright! Alright, alright!
Wretzky: No, really, that's the hardest song we play.
Iha: Feelin' alright! I'm not feelin' too good my motherfuckin' self!
Corgan: I believe you need a beat.
[Chamberlin begins playing]
Feelin' Alright [Traffic] (tease)
Iha: I'm not feeling too good myself! That's the wrong key goddammit! That's the wrong fuckin' key! I can't fuckin' wack this wack-ass shit in the fuckin' 'ego. Here we are, people. Put your motherfuckin' hands in the motherfuckin' air, like you just don't motherfuckin' care, you piece of shit. Come on! Get on your goddamn feet! Do something! Yeah! Oh yeah! Come on! I know a girl the name of....[unintelligible]...but oh shit!
Corgan: Most people don't know this, but he wrote all of Snoop Doggy Dogg's songs, so uh...you biatch!
X.Y.U.

Encore Two:
Corgan: We've come back out to brutalize your sweet asses one more time. [Iha plays riff] I got the blues...
Iha: No, that's metal, man.
Corgan: That was metal? Oh, Metal, by Pink Floyd! Is there any words?
Iha: Don't we know our classic rock influences?
Corgan: Is that One of These Days? One of these days, we're going to cut you into pieces.
Iha: Alright.
Corgan: Just so you know, after the show we're gonna be giving away all our equipment, so find out what you wanna get.
Iha: My left arm is for sale.
Corgan: Pick your cabinet now. The fuck are we playin'? Oh, yeah, sorry, I remember!
Iha: We're gonna play another rock song. I know you've been...you haven't heard one of those before. We're gonna do a little...cajun blues. Oh yeah. I can't hear you! Come on!
