The other part tonight is we get to play a bunch of things that we, if we haven't played them ever, we haven't played in a long time.
And for all the lovers here tonight, for all the poets, for everyone involved in Romanticism, we'd like to play something called "Tied Up and Swallowed".
("Tied Up and Swallowed") ♪ Hey, hey ♪ (propulsive upbeat rock music) ♪ Yeah!

We were always writing songs.
I mean, we still, it's the same, the same thing, we write songs, and then we play them in this band.
That's pretty much it.
(audience laughing) Yeah.
And it is funny when, like I said, 'cause it makes you, it demands you to remember things.
So, we make "Shake Your Money Maker".
It was a big success.
We make "Southern Harmony".
It's, like, number one record.
It's big all over the world, I imagine, at least some places.
(audience laughing) So it's our first time going to Japan, Australia, and New Zealand, so we have these two big records, and we go on tour and we open with this that no one's ever heard.
It's called "Exit".
("Exit" begins) (rhythmic guitar music builds) (drums and percussion come in) (percussion continues and keyboards join) (all the instruments drive the blues rock beat) (rhythmic music continues) (upbeat rock music continues and builds) (the drums signal a change and the guitars follow) (upbeat rock music continues) (rhythmic rock music continues) (blues-rock rhythmic music continues) ♪ Never fought with these dark clouds, ha ♪ ♪ Nor the handful of rain ♪ ♪ Today my dust hit my pavement, unh ♪ ♪ Went overboard again ♪ ♪ Yeah, I've heard the songs of protest, yes ♪ ♪ So much reason for the rage ♪ ♪ People so blind in their conquest ♪ ♪ They forgot the title page ♪ ♪ Unh ♪ ♪ So don't you pity me ♪ ♪ Well, misplace my intentions ♪ ♪ Don't, don't mistake me ♪ ♪ This is no illusion ♪ ♪ This is an exit ♪ (blues-inflected rock music continues) (propulsive rock music continues) ("Exit" music continues) ♪ I've been your trophy ♪ ♪ Yes, and I've been your hole ♪ ♪ I've been your constellation ♪ ♪ I've been your constitution ♪ ♪ I've been your parole ♪ ♪ So if you want to try and beat me ♪ ♪ Be prepared for a shock ♪ ♪ 'Cause, baby, baby, with your crime ♪ ♪ Yeah, you will find who holds the key and holds the lock ♪ ♪ Don't you pity me ♪ ♪ Call me a desert ♪ ♪ Well, don't mistake me ♪ ♪ Oh, don't call me deserter ♪ ♪ This is an exit ♪ ♪ Exit, exit, exit ♪ ♪ Let's go ♪ (hard-driving rock music continues) (upbeat music continues) (guitar flourishes add texture to the rhythm) (the drummer keeps a steady, driving beat) (the lead guitar continues to add color and texture) (the bass supports the riffs) (the upbeat rock music continues) (the guitar solo continues) ♪ Well, don't you pity me, yeah ♪ ♪ Don't you misplace my intentions ♪ ♪ Yeah, don't mistake me ♪ ♪ No, this is no illusion ♪ ♪ This is an exit, exit, exit ♪ ♪ Oh ♪ ♪ This is a ♪ ♪ Oh, yeah ♪ (the propulsive music grows in intensity) (the music continues to intensify) (the music begins to soften and slow) ♪ Baby ♪ (audience applauding and cheering) It was at that time at the concert in Tokyo where all the people looked around and said, "That's not 'Jealous Again.'
What the..." (audience laughing) "What are they doing?"
The first single from "Amorica" is a song called "A Conspiracy".

(Uptempo bluesy music continues) (Guitar solo above a wah rhythm guitar) (Guitars continue with propulsive bass and drums) (Guitar solo continues) (Guitar solo continues) (Bluesy rock music continues) (Guitar solo continues) (audience applauding and cheering) Merci beaucoup.
Well, this next one is from the "Amorica" record, and I always, as the years have gone by, I think it's funny.
Well, it's the greatest thing to be a lyricist and to write a song called "Nonfiction".
(audience members cheering) It's called "Nonfiction", but it's just a bunch of made up stuff.
None of it is true.
A little bit true.
("Nonfiction" begins) (Solo acoustic guitar music) (Acoustic guitar music continues as keyboards come in) (Guitar and keyboard music continues with percussion added) ♪ Well, I don't know my telephone number ♪ ♪ But you kiss good, and I'd like to ♪ ♪ See you tomorrow ♪ ♪ Babe, I don't beg ♪ ♪ I don't beg, I don't barter ♪ ♪ And if we had a child, I'd like a son ♪ ♪ And not a daughter ♪ ♪ No, 'cause she'd be just like you ♪ ♪ And you know that just would not do ♪ ♪ I'm no builder ♪ ♪ I'm no gardener ♪ ♪ I sing some songs, have a friend ♪ ♪ Who's a photographer ♪ ♪ There ain't no other language ♪ ♪ I know how to speak ♪ ♪ Some like their water shallow ♪ ♪ I like mine deep ♪ ♪ So very, very deep ♪ ♪ Tied to the bottom ♪ ♪ With a noose 'round my feet ♪ ♪ The clouds conspire ♪ ♪ Above my head ♪ ♪ I overheard them, yeah ♪ ♪ Say I wish he was dead ♪ ♪ Today the sunset ♪ ♪ Ooh!
♪ ♪ Burned my eyes ♪ ♪ In the next room ♪ ♪ I think I hear someone cry ♪ (Rhythmic rock music continues) (Electric guitar solo with acoustic rhythm guitar) (Guitar dialogue continues) You see what I'm trying to say?

This next song, it's called "Wiser Time".
(audience members cheering) Thank you.
But it's funny, I don't think that most of our behavior was very wise, but I think that's the thing about music sometimes, that you write a song and you listen to a song, songs that I like, songwriters that I love, and it changes while you change, and hopefully, a little wisdom has snuck in there occasionally.
("Wiser Time" begins) (electric guitar opens as cymbals and keys join) (electric guitar continues) (cymbals shimmer as second guitar and bass join) (the music slowly and steadily builds) (the guitars continue their dialogue) (percussive cymbals then drums drive the rhythm) (slide electric guitar tremulously joins in) (slide guitar gains in intensity and volume) (percussion adds to the texture) ♪ No time left now for shame ♪ ♪ Horizon behind me, no more pain ♪ ♪ Windswept stars blink and smile ♪ ♪ Another song, another mile ♪ ♪ Oh oh yeah yeah ♪ (guitars and percussion continue) ♪ You read the line every time ♪ ♪ Ask me about crime in my mind ♪ ♪ Ask me why another road song ♪ ♪ Funny, but I bet you never left home ♪ ♪ Well, on a good day ♪ ♪ But it's not every day ♪ ♪ We can part the sea ♪ ♪ Bad day, no, it's not every day ♪ ♪ Glory beyond our reach ♪ ♪ Yeah!

(audience applauding and cheering) Alright, this is the first diss track we ever wrote.
Started to be... (guitar riffing) And then, uh... I'm just kidding.
Well, it is kind of, it was kind of a... We didn't have a title for the song, and I was looking around, and one of our road cases, it said, "P 25 London."
And it was production case number 25, headed to London, so that's it.
(audience whistling and applauding) The most famous case in all The Black Crowes catalog.
It's the worst rock opera ever.
(audience laughing) ("P.25 London" begins) (Guitar and bass start and harmonica joins in) (Harmonica continues) (Harmonica continues to wail) ♪ I am a cobweb, uh ♪ ♪ In the corner of the room ♪ ♪ I tell you, I built myself a boat, babe ♪ ♪ So go on and cry me a monsoon ♪ ♪ Get busy on it, baby ♪ ♪ And while you're at it, make it deep ♪ ♪ Imagine how surprised all the kids will be ♪ ♪ Empty bottles, saviors, they crawl ♪ ♪ That has always been and will always be ♪ ♪ There's a hornet's nest in my head, come and save me ♪ (Harmonica solo begins again) (Wailing, percussive harmonica continues) (Bluesy rock music continues) ♪ If I don't say nothing ♪ ♪ Don't say nothing ♪ ♪ You say, come on, tell us what to do ♪ ♪ So I tell ya, this is just how I live ♪ ♪ Somebody else calls it news ♪ Sing it!

(audience applauding and cheering) Thank you.
Well alright.
This song's called "High Head Blues".
And this is The Black Crowes.
This is a lot of our story.
("High Head Blues" begins) What's that?
