BC: H-O-T-T?
Iha: Yep.
BC: Thanks so much for coming. We really appreciate it. Um, it's been pretty crazy wacky since we got here and um, we're glad you're here to (exaggerated Cuban accent) rock and roll with us. (normal) Like to play you a little metal song that James wrote, we felt it was a little too heavy at first for the band but then we kinda got used to it. It's a little song called Take Me Down to the Metal Shop.

Iha: That’s pretty.

> Rocket
BC: We'd like to say a special Smashing Pumpkins hello to our friends up in the balcony, hi.
Iha: [unintelligible]
BC: We hope you enjoy the concert...as much as these people are going to.
Iha: [unintelligible]
BC: Of course, from the balcony you can't see all the plastic surgery that we've had but um, don't say anything. Woo, plastic surgery, heh heh, woo.
Iha: Yes, yes.
BC: Ah, we're just winging it now, D'arcy.
