BC: Yeah! Thank you, Melbourne. How ‘bout them Queens of the Stone Age? Queens, proving the drugs do work. I’m very happy to play with them, Jesus and the Mary Chain. You probably don’t this but I met my future ex-wife at a Jesus and the Mary Chain concert. 1986, people, I was there. I just turned 20 too. Anyway, I’d like to send this song out to everybody who’s here, thank you very much. As the shy member of the Smashing Pumpkins, heh, I’d like to say thank you. I dedicate this song to you, thank you.

BC: Thank you.)

Who Can It Be Now? (tease)
BC: (singing) “Who can it be now? Who can it be now?” (speaking) Hey! Listen. There was a time in America, if it wasn’t for Men at Work, we didn’t even know there was a country called Australia, okay? So you gotta give ‘em that! You gotta give ‘em that, we didn’t even know where Australia was until they showed up. Alright, we’ll play one more song.

BC: Thank you. Now go home and have some hot sex, okay, goodbye.
