Before: Black Dog
Good evening. Well, this is the first time since we've been in the country that ah we've played inside, and it's really hot. We've just come from three feet snow, and things like that, but this is one dedicated to ah, a labradour, a black labradour who was about nineteen years, hang on listen, got to tell you. A lot of people think that it's the kind of chicks we dig, but ah, it's dedicated to a dog that was so old, that he could only walk up the garden, but he could never quite make it back, so we had to help him. Black Dog.

Before: Celebration Day
Right, now not too far away from ah, this place is a plcae called New York, and um, it depends on you how far removed it is. It's really not all that nice a place to be really. There's a lot of things going on. So we wrote a song about it, and it's about all the social strife, and it's about. They always say, have you got a message with your music, and we always saw no cause we all know what it's about. So this is called Celebration Day.

Good evening. There was twenty six thousand people on Sunday in ah, Sydney, and ah, even though two of them said good evening, it sounded a thousand times louder, and this was in the afternoon too.
