CL: Since we’re in New Jersey, can I tell you a secret about that song?
Audience screams.
CL: “Like a liar at a witch trial, you look good for your age”…that line’s about Kim Gordon (Laughs).
Audience screams.
CL: I know, isn’t that cunty? I guess I could be really cunty sometimes. I always see her at Marc Jacobs and we’re nice to each other, but, um, since we’re in Jersey.
CL: So we’re gonna do a Leonard Cohen cover and it’s not Hallelujah. Enough with the fucking Hallelujah. Alright…and this was, um, my very, very first record I ever owned was Leonard Cohen, Leonard Cohen, which tells you something about how how crazy my parents were.

How about those parental skills? Did you guys watch that shit? We lived in a teepee! How do you think I ended up this way? A boarding school and teepee, so fancy and…oh, don’t bust me. Don’t bust me. Upper middle class teepee, alright. I’m the Kennedy’s love child. Kennedy’s love child. I’m an uber WASP, ok? That’s why I went to teepee boarding school, the Kennedys were paying for boarding school for me. What? You’re busting me for having rich parents? Who made me live in a teepee? Fuck.

CL: We’re doing the most fucked up setlist in the world, like, it’s just we’re doing what we want kind of a thing. (Pointing to her guitar) So I know you guys think that I keep this all turned down and it’s a big wooden necklace, but really it’s not. I do know how to play one.
