Good evening, ladies and gentlemen. Welcome to show number four de la London, England.

Now we've been playing here for three days and I have never seen such a boring audience in my life. You people must be walking in your sleep. I know that you're different though! This is a completely different breed of audience tonight. You people are really up for it, do you know what I mean? I can tell; it's your vibes and your groovy aura that gives me this clue. And so, without further ado ladies and gentlemen (and remember you have to make a lot of noise) I'm going to introduce you to the members of our rocking teenage combo right now. This is Patrick O'Hearn on bass...Louder! Very good. Tommy Mars on keyboards...Adrian Belew on guitar...little skinny Terry Bozzio on drums...Peter Wolf on keyboards...Ed Mann on percussion. All right, all right...don't want you to get too worked up; save a little bit for the end of the show, you know what I mean? All right. Is that really all right or are you just saying that? Ok it is all right. It better be goddamn it. One, two, three, four!
